Who Has This MOneu2

HURON, March 27.-Intense interest is
manifested in the labors of the examining
committee, and every effort will be made to
keep their findings from the public until their
report is ready. In spite of their reticence
some things occasionally leak out. The latest
development is more startling than the 81, 700
railroad tax brought to light few days
since. The records show that Nov. 2, 1882,
warrant No. 365 was issued by the county to
T. NJ Jeffres for ST. 1S6 on the bridge fund.
The warrant was presented for payment Nov.
90 1882, and was Endorsed not paid for want
of funds. The 18th of June following Frank
E. Stevens, county treasurer, paid on this
warrant S1,1l5.90, the AMOUNT being in
dorsed and credit taken for the same on the
cash book of the treasurer. The 18th of
March, 1884, Stevens paid on the same war
rant 81, 239.4 As, including interest, and also
took credit for that amount. All subsequent
settlements of the treasurer have been made
on the basis of the payment of 50, 355.35 on
this warrant which only called 81, 1SS, leav-
ing the county out about 81, 100. The ques-
ton now is who has that money!
