Price of Grain Sacks Reduced.

waila Wala. July 15.-Special-At q
meeting OF the directors of the state peni-
tentiary today the price of grain bags was
reduced to a. cents each. This is TO COM
pete with the reduction made by the sack
merchants who have been gradually cut
ting under the penitentiary- made sacks.
Directors Nye and McInroe said that al
though Calcutta sacks were not as good
a quality as those made by the peniten-
tiary. dealers could not afford 10 sell at
the price they quote. and that If the state
was undersold II would cause the same
result as in California. that was shut
ting down the penitenuary jute mill,
thereby eventually raising the price OF
bags very materially. 1t is said here that
the grain merchants had greatly oyeresti-
mated the wheat yield. and they are bur
dened with an oversupply OF sacks. The
output Of the penitentiary is about 2oo0.-
nao sacks annually.

TREASURER M'cAULEY's BOND.
; ONE Question About the RESPONSE
biIity of the Surefies.

Tacoma. July .-Special.-Councilman
Parker, who. with Councilman Norton. has
been making some inquiries into the sure
ties on the s2Ss.0O0 official bond of City
Treasurer Mccauley, says the whole bond
Is security for not more than 81 ,ooo. ITO
give YOU some idea OF the financial worth
OF the bond,' said Mr.. Parker. ''one OF the
sureties is George w Boggs. and he is
down on the list for s25 600 Why. he swore
in court short time ago that he was not
worth a dollar, and his statement was
published in hte papers. and yet he re-
mains on the bond. The mantle of Mr..
Boggs fell on Mr. McCauley, and / suppose
h was according 10 the established order
OF things as run in this city that he should
be on his bonds, but l regard the city as
without any security further than Mr..
McCauley's personal integrity for the city
money held by him. The bond is prac-
tically worthless.
The finance committee WIFI report next
Saturday. and will have some interesting
things to say concerning the securities
furnished to the city by some OF the banks
holding deposits. and given 10 Mr.. Caven-
der. chairman of the finance committee.
and placed In the treasurer's vaults nearly
a year ago. under pledge not TO disclose
their contents for one year.
Mr.. Norton and / have had this veil of
secrecy removed before the time was up.
and the finance committee has been delv-
ing into these securities. and what we
have to say about them will be interesting
reading"
When Treasurer MeCauley was asked
for a statement. he said: when I came
into Office there was supposed to be about
SGD 600 In the city treasury. but only about
slo. 900 or si50o was turned over to me- but
by resolution of the city council I was for
hidden 10 receipt to Mr.. Boggs for that
amount. Afterward my bond was gotten

entire amount supposed 10 he In the treas
ury. there is S255.oo0 in the Tacoma Trust
and Savings hank and s10i COO In closed
banks for which I am not responsible.
Furthermore. acting as the city's agent, /
have reduced the amounts In banks sl5O.-
600 more than ! have deposited. In addi-
ton to my bonds the banks have put up
coliaterals and bonds to secure deposits y
per cent. in excess OF the amounts depos-
tied. These securities have been examined
by the finance committee. and taking the
view of this committee / am only respon-
sible for sl50,ooo. and my bond is for $780,

Treasurer McCauley denied vigorously
that Mr.. Boggs was ever on his bond.
