Hon. John Francis is better acuuaint
ed, probably, with DJnnclI. Lawson &
Simpson than any other man in Kansas,
and he seems To thiak tina, they will
come out all right. He has a great deal
of business dealings with them, and they
hold deposit of his now, but The gen

AS was stated yesterday morning. Don
NELL Lawson s. Simpson are the finan-
clal agents in New York for this state,
and they have now on deposit there over
$14, 900 of the states money. Yesler
day Governor Click, Hon. James Smith,
secretary of state, and Hon. Samuel T.
Howe, treasurer, left Tor New York to
look after this money and save it from
being lost. However. the firm is under
$5OO,O bonds to the state. The Execu-
tive Council has been trying to get the
agency changed TO some other bank for
a long time, but they don't find many
banks that are willing to give such a
heavy bond.
