SOUTH DAKOTA'S TREASURER.
The Missing DefsuIter Believed to lie In
Or Near Chicago.


CHICAGO, January H.-F'rom the move
ments of certain of Taylor's bondsmen
who are now in this city there is good
reason to believe that the defaulting trea-
surer OF South Dakota is either In Chi
cago or near here. Early this forenoon
Ex-Governor Mellette left his hotel In a
carriage, accompanied by his son. Soon
afterward J. T. McChesney and two other
men, supposed to be Taylor's bondsmen.
followed in another carriage. 1t Is said
that the party were driven TO a hotel on
the outskirts Of the city. and that Taylor
was there. IL ia also said that a confer
ence was held, and that the result will
be a settlement Of Taylor's defalcation.
Several of Taylors bondsmen are in town.
and as they are all stopping at the same
hotel their presence cannot be otherwise
accounted for.
Positive information cannot be given as
10 Taylor's whereabouts. "lf were hunt
Ing for Taylor" said one OF them to-day.
II should not go outside of Chicago to
find him."
Ex-Governor Mellette himself also ad-
mitted last night that he thought Taylor
was in the city, and the carriage expedi-
tion is believed to settle the fact that the
missing treasurer Is within hailing dis
tance of the Great Northern Hotel.
G. II. Ninton, another of Taylor's bonds
men, arrived this evening.
