If this statement which is made to
me by the receiver is correct, you COL
lected- all of these moneys after your
term of Office had expired, ana even eve ~ II
it be true that you paid out $3So.So'
which you claim you did, and 1868 un-
der our letter, there is still balance,
being the three last dividends paid you,
and it was for the purpose OF gettlng
you to account for this balance tnaG l
addressed you the letter l did A de-
ticiency warrant has been issued 10
Senator Shoup for the balance the state
owes him, and if you paid the other
amounts to anybody. whether legally
or illegally, you certainly should not
consider youself above the state board
and myself to such an extent as to re-
fuse to account for the money you IL
legally retained, because the truth OF
the matter is, and you are perfectly
well aware of it, that you should have
turned over the certificate of deposit to
the state treasurer Immediately upon
the expiration of your term of office,
which was December 81, 1893.
thought it was in my line of duty to
ask you to account for the moneys you
haYe received. Perhaps / am wrong. l
shall always, however, think that it
was in bad taste for you not to turn
over everything in your possession at
the time your term expired; and shall
always think that you should account
for the moneys you received. pre-
sumo you haYe paid this money out on
account of some indebtedness, but, as
said before, there was no authority of
law for your doing so. The state board
granted you the privilege of paying
to Senator Shoup S463, but, beyond that
you had no authority to go. There
still remains balance of $6l7.58, &C.
cording to the statement of the bank
receiver, which you had no authority
to disburse, even through the state
board of examiners, as they have given
you no such authority within my
knowledge. l think it would be we'll
for you to come here to the Office and
explain the matter to myself and state
board of examiners in person.
Respectfully Yours,

Tes5 Correspondence Between the esnlIsmSn =
Somewhat Mixed All Around.

AS the public may be more or less in
terested in the slight misunderstanding
which has recently occurred between
Governor Mcconnell and J. NJ. Wells,
late Worlds Fair Commissioners, TIE
TRIBUNE reproduces the gist Of the
correspondence out of which the diff

March IL, 1895.
Hon. J. If. Wells,
PGNette, Idaho.

PGyette, Idaho.
DEAR SIR-Duripg the time you
were acting as Worlds Fair Commits
sioner for the state of Idaho, you made
a deposit in the Columbia National
Bank which afterwards went into IL
quotation. Receivers certificate No.
986 was issued to you personally for
81 ,543.59. The deposit was not made
in your name as commissioner from
Idaho, but, as am informed, was cred
tied to you personally. From time to
time payments have been made to you,
aggregating about 20 per cent of the
total deposit. There was no authority
of law under which you could pay this
money to any private individual on &C.
count of claims which they might hold
against you, or the state. Your only
course would have been to have re.
turned 1t to the state treasury from
whence it came. l cannot conceive
why you have not followed that plan
am informed by the receiver of that
bank that you have been paid five divi-
dends, and ask that you pay any bal
ance you may have belonging to the
state oyer to the proper officer, as this
matter has now been standing much
longer than propriety would seem to
permit.
Very Sincerely Yours,

Last nightabout 1880 o'clock
the servants house of Judge
Fowler in the southwest part of
the city was discovered to be on
fire. A general alarm was
turned in and the usual crowd
was soon on hand. About half
a dozen determined men set to
work and by their efforts and a
good supply of water the flames
were soon subdued. The cell
ing and roof were burned, but
the walls of the house were
saved. The fire originated in
the middle of the room, but how
is a mystery, as the house had
not been occupied for some time
and there had been no fire in it.
The residence and barn were in
great danger, as they were
closely adjacent, nothing but
the heroic efforts of the neigh
bors saving them. The loss is
small and fully covered by in
surance in the Liverpool & Lon
don & Globe.

COMMISSIONERS COURT.
The Proceedings Of That TrISunsI Yea
terday Afternoon and Today-Bound
Over-Turned states Evidence.

Judge Walcott today heard
the case against Bart Givens,
charged with the larceny of a
saddle The evidence was
against the defendant and he
was held in the sum of $500, in
default of which he was COM
mitted. Givens urged, as a
defense, that he bought the
saddle in question from a man
by the name of Smith, who had
since gone to Arkansas. The
officers say that Smith, Jones
and John Doe have given them
more trouble than all the other
territory criminals combined
and that it seems impossible to
catch them. They are contin-
ually getting innocent men in
trouble, as in the case against
Givens.
Yesterday afternoon the case
against John Kauba. Arthur
Boyd, Bob Speck and Henry
Foster, charged jointly with the
theft of a beef from Jerry
Washington, was concluded
resulting in Kauba and Foster
being held under bond in the
sums of $500 and $50 respec'
lively, and the discharge o.
Boyd and Speck. The tive
latters weakened and testified
against the others in order L
secure their liberty.
Kauba and Foster are in jai
but will most likely be released
tomorrow, as they have assur
ance of bond being furnishes
