Chicago, April 15.-President F. NJ
Mckay. of the University of Illinois
board Of trustees, said Wednesday that
C. w. Spalding admitted to him and to
James E. Armstrong that he had hy-
pothecated the university endowment
bonds. This admission of guilt, Mr..
Mckay said, was made Monday. Spald-
ing entered into no explanation, but
promised full statement later. This
IL the first time anyone in authority
has openly stated that the bonds have
been hypothecated.
The Chicago Title and Trust company,
through Vice President Leman, filed its
report as receiver of the Globe savings
bank in Judge Tuley's court Wednes-
day morning.
When the report had been read, ap-

On the face of the returns there was
plenty of money-or its equivalent in
securities in the vault; but nobody
seemed to know whether these securities
were worth one cent on the dollar or
were wildcats of the widest order.
The report stated that Mr.. Leman,
with S. w. Burnham, the United States
circuit court clerk, present as disin-
te1ested party, opened the vaults and
extracted therefrom number of boxes,

papers included tax receipts. coupons,

The receivers report on the finances
of the Globe savings bank-$212,O 900 in
bonds, at least $50, 900 of which are pro-
nounced by financial men to be worth
less-was handed in and adds few
weights to the load of troubles which
overhangs the University Of Illinois
since the suspension of the banking in
stitution. E. G. Keith is now the whole
hope of the university trustees. Mr..
Keith was unanimously elected treas

never became accustomed to the raw

When that necessary operation was

thought over what young Longworth
had told him. His triumph, after all,
had been short-lived. The choice be-

that he felt he didn't care which of
them owned the mine. Meditating upon
this disagreeable subject, he suddenly
remembered a request he had asked
Wentworth TO make to the new owner
of the mine. He wanted no favor from
Melville, so he wrote a second letter
