Fort SC0TT, Kan, April l8.-An ex-
pert investigation of the books of the
city treasurer, Mrs. w. NJ. Pullian of
this city, the only female city treasurer

the matter up. 1t is not thought that
she has been dishonest, but that the
shortage is due to some one having OBJ

storm, and the army now knows just
how much water can come from cloud
when it all comes at once. During the
entire day Tuesday the men clunG to
their camp in the timber near Parks
mill, waiting like Micawber for some
thing to turn up. Rations were apt 10
be curtailed in few hours, for the un-
certainty of delay suggested the certain
ty of hunger. And then the rain came.
soon scattered the men In search Of
shelter.
Shelter Was Extremely Scarce.
The militia occupied the only build
ings in the vicinity and would not allow
Kellyite to enter. As 8 result the en-
tire command was soon drenched. The
shower ended, the sun came ont warm
and bright and the army gathered again,
mud besmeared and bedraggled, aRd
something of a feeling of desperation de-
veloped. General Kelly was in Omaha,
where he had been ali day, AMI his re-
turn to camp at nightfan was anxious:y
awaited by the men. When Kelly went
back to camp he took with him $ieC IN
cash and three wagons loaded with pro
visions, subscribed by the citizens %

Shortly after Kelly's return 10 ca 4
rain began to fall steadily, and it look
like the shower would continue Ell
night This rendered the situation o
the men almost intolersble.
Four loads OF hay furnished by syz..-
pathetic farmers wer0 spread on ths
rain soaked sod, and here the men rested.
Hail came with the rain and the misery
of bruises was added to the suffering OF
soaking. Colonel Mount OF Shenandoah
says he is acting under orders OF Cover
nor Jackson and will have his men shOot
down any Kellyite who attempts 10 tres
pass on railroad property.
