The fOregoing com priSes all the money and
assets that could find. The Treasurer was not
t his office, nor could find him, nor have l
seen him, nor do know where he is. The tes-
timony of S. M. Pollock and the statement of
the County Auditor in relation to said inspec-
tion are here returned, together with my
certificate of appointment and list of the
notes and checks hereinbefore mentioned.
From the foregoing infpection, it is my opin-
ion that NJ. G. keenan,, the County Treasurer of
Jackson County, has as such Treasurer COM
mitted an embezzlement of the funds of said
County to the amount of S11 ,l36 81
All of which is respectfully submitted.

NEW YORK, July 18.-It was su-
nouneed in the morning papers that
committee CT the Telegraphers' Broth
erhood would wait on the ofiei,ls of
the Western Union Company at IL
o'clock to. day to demand an answer to
their petition in reference to wages
and hours of work. Up to ll:30 o'clock
none of the committee had appeared.
A meeting of the directors OF the tele-
graph company will be held at 1890,
and the result SO far as it refers to the
petition will probably not be known
tor an hour or more after that time.
There were no evidences OF an unusual
excitement among the operators this
morning, although the situation is
discussed with much interest where
ever a knot OF them gathers.
A feverish feeling exists in tele,
graphic circles over the threatened
strike. Every person interested is
anxiously awaiting the result of the
meeting of the executive committee
of the Western Union directors. The
committee of the Brotherhood held a
meeting early this morning, but
what trsnspired there could
not be learned Cipher dispatches
received by the Committee from vari
GUS points stating that the operators

there seemed to be very little
possibility that the company would
grant the request and that the strike
seemed to be inevitable, The de.
mands we're unjust and unreasonable
and if the strike should happen the
company would fight it to the bitter
end.
| NJ. j. Dealy, manager of the oper-
ating room of the Western Union
said he did not believe the strike
would be commenced without mature
deliberation upon the operators.

the respectable labor elements Of the

Dennis Kearney. The New York
Herald very pointedly says that he is
"a man who cannot claim to represent
any recognized principle of right or
Justice, who on his own confession was
never a poor and oppressed working
man, and whose sole claim to nOtOri-

Of the Board Of Hasltk IN ;he city i

neither has there been case which
justifes the suspicion Of its being
such,
The only cases within the limits Of

Mississippi quarantine, on the Swed-
ish bark Bernia, which was not dos
tined to this port, but came into he
river in distress little more than a
week ago. This vessel will not come
up to the city at all, nor any OF her
cargo or crew.

which may come to their knowledge
The fact that no such report has beer

From the vigorous assaults made on
Mr.. Hoadly by the Commercial Ca
sette, and other Republican papers, is
sure evidence that he is regarded as a
very formidable candidate. 1t is
highly amusing to witness the contor-
tons of those papers in their efforts
to make something out of small issues
and to organize something Of re-
spectacle appearance Of opposition,
Judging from their commotion and
blowing of tin horns, the wild gesticu

around in the Republican camp
HOadly's chances of election are very
