afternoon to explain the apparent discrep-,
ancy between his previous testimony and
facts subsequently developed by Keystone
bank books. Instead, he sent letter, say

College Funds Mis- ,smanaged.

CrNorNNATr, June 30.-At the convention
of the southern Ohio diocese of the Protest.
ant Episcopal church, held recently in this
city, the most exciting topic discussed was
the alleged mismanagement of certain en-
dowment funds of Kenyon college, at Gam
bier, Knox county, Ohio. After discussion
the matter was referred to special com
mittee with instructions to report to the
next diocesan convention. 1t was stated,
however. during the discussions that there
was no dishonesty in the transaction, but
that they were unbusinesslike, and to that
extent irregular. A correspondent Of the
Commercial Gazette writing from Mount
Vernon, Knox county, says that last Satur-
dav discovery was made Of virtual de.
fcit of $2l 900 in the college finances. Spe-
cial funds were regularly loaned on inter
est. and whom the principal or interest was
paid in, the amounts were dumped into the
general fund and checked out for general
purposss, instead of being restored to their
proper places. II seems, however, that rs
the trust ees collectively are financially able
to make & ood the shortage, the funds viii
speedily be reimbursed.

KANSAS Cry, June 3O.-The flood in the
Missouri river reached the highest stage at
four o'clock. The water ia now falling and
all apprehension of further damage has
been set at rest. The river at four O'Clock

is steadily falling at the rate of an inch an
hour. Harlem. the village across the river
which was flooded yesterday is still under

submerged by back water. though only the
houses of squatters on low lands have been
badly damaged. Various industries on the

for the improvement of the wagon road be-

has taken the matter in hand and propose
to furnish some eight or ten teams, with
men. who will work in conjunction with

put a months work on the road with good
force of men, it is probable that it will
make an excellent highway for heavily
loaded teams, the road having been found
by careful examination to be good natural
route, but requiring a liberal amount OF
grading and the making of bitches on the
upper side, together with some pikeing.

Likelihood That the Sunday School
Superintendent Will Have
to Resign.
Convicted of False Swearing. and Having
Guilty Knowledge Of the Keystone
Bank Crook edness.

WARRINGTON, June 80. Is whispered
here that the president is becoming very
nervous because Of the revelations brought
out from time to time by the committee in.
vestiRnting the failure of the Keystone
bank. 1t is palpable to any person who has
watched this case from the beginning that
tho administration is hopelessly involved
in the scandal. Baidsley testified that
Bank Examiner Drew was bribed by Lucas,
and it is certain that Drew tried to cover
up the affairs Of the rotten bank as long as
possible in order to give Wanamaker an
opportunity to extract his paper from the
bank. Wanamaker solemnly testified that
he owned no stock in the bank, yet his own
brokers come forward in Philadelphia and
show that he did; that they sold stock for
him. and his name was en- the back of the
stock as an endorser. The department
of Justice refused to order the ar
rest Of Marsh until Wanamaker's brother
and the Wanamaker clique in Philadelphia
had arranged bail for him, and also ar
ranged with him to flee the country as soon
as bailed out. Wanamaker testified that he
took no interest in the appointment OF q
receiver or in delaying the appointment OF
receiver, yet the comptroller of the cur
rency shows that Wanamaker did urge de-
lay. The comptroller of the currency, Mr.
Lacey, made long statement, in which he
purported to give the whole history of the
affairs Of the bank, together with the ap
pointmentment Of = receiver, but It is now
known that certain correspondence was not
made public. 1t is known, for instance,
that second comptroller of the treasury
B. Frank Gilkeson, of Pennsylvania, wrote
along and earnest letter to Comptroller
Lacey from Philadelphia. urging him
to postpone the appointment OF
days. Gilkeson is one of Quay's most act
