HURD MUST MAKE ANSWER.
Governor Morrill, Transmits the FOrma
Charges Against the Populist-


Topeka, July 4-Goyernor Morrill,
yesterday morning served upon w. j.
Hurd copies of the charges which have
been filed against him as a member OF
the board of directors OF the peDiten-
tiary. He will have a hearing Satur-
day morning in the executive office.
The charges are filed by Attorney Cen
eral Dawes and allege that Hurd as a
member of the board OF directors OF the
penitentiary permitted Warden Chase
to keep the books of the institution in
such a manner that at this time IL is
impossible to determine if the affairs
of the penitentiary have been carried
on in the proper manner and that IL is
impossible TO tell whether or not Chase
accounted for all the money which
came into and passed through his
hands. The charge is also made that
Hurd was cogniZant of the loose book
keeping done by the storekeeper at the
penitentiary and that he permitted it
to go on without interference. II is
further charged that Hurd as a mem
her of the board of directors permitted
incompetent men TO be employed to
the detriment and injury of the institu-
ton; that he also permitted the opera
tion of the penitentiary mine when 1t
was in such a condition as to endanger
es were permitted 10 draw their salary
for positions they did not ill and serv-
ices they did not perform and that the
hoard Of which HTd is member per-
mitted the officers of the penitentiary
to treat the prisoners with extreme cru
eloy.
One of the principal charges Is that
Hurd and the other Pop member of the
board, J. j. Barnes. were fully aware
of the PERSISTENT refusal of Deputy War
den Markum u take the proper posi-
ton and do the work at the penitenti-
airy when Chase was suspended pend
ing investigation and that while fully
aware of the fragrant violation OF the
law by Markum the two members of
the board absolutely and persistentiy
refused to take any steps towards Sc
curing his removal and permitted him
TO act in defiance of the board.
The governor had intended to for
ward formal charges To Director Bar
res yesterday but did not find time -
do so.
