ing warrants. They placed on the
stand Deputy Treasurer burlington
and Terril Pattison to prove that the
amount charged to Taylor on the treas
urer's books in his own bank Jan. 8.
1893, was 1866. 900, and the transcript of
his business for the same date showed
only $4,000 credited to him. This was
urged as evidence to prove that the
detalcation occurred during the first
term. The defense also contended that
$500, 900 secured on funding warrants
should be deducted, as it was illegally
secured. On the argument their con-
tention was that the bond, being 500, =
600 In excess of the statutory require
ment, voided it in that much, if not in
whole. Judge Gaffy directed the jury
to return verdict for the whole
amount claimed-$344, PIT. 45-but ex-
pressed his doubt of the decision being
sustained for more that $3.50, 900, the
statutory amount of the bond. The
defense asked stay of 80 days to per-
feet an appeal.

Polling Congress.
NEW YORK, June 3-The World
publishes telegraphic poll of the next
congress as far as obtainable upon the
silver, tariff and income tax questions
The World sums up the result as fol-
lows:
In general way, it may be said that
out of l16 members who gave unequiv-
ocal answers to the silver questions, 55
are un4ualifiedly in favor of free coin
age and A favor bimetallism generally,
with the proviso Of an international
agreement. Only II can be fairly
classed as favoring single gold stand
ard, and the attitude of some Of these
is not definite. The South and far
Western states are almost unanimous
for free coinage; the Central states lean
towards silver with international BIZ
metallic qualifications, and it is only in
New York, New England and adjacent
Eastern states that there are any
avowedly gold standard men.
In regard to the tariff, only 2S men,
bers are against all change, while 80
favor moderate changes and 38 are pro-
nounced for radical changes. A few
are free traders. The moderates are
chiefly those who think changes will be
necessary in order to increase revenues.

OMAHA, June s.-Major Mortimer

He says:
They have thoroughly organized

visional one, necessarily. The senti-
ment in favor of annexation is strong.
The most kindly feelings are cherished
toward the United States among the

Japan will. You know what the

citizens in the island who have settled

affairs. The balance of the population,
however. are allowed to vote, with
some property and educational limita-
tions.
