by R. S. Boyd, desire to publicly state
that I regret the mention made of the
senators. The list having been shown
to me by a disreputable person, did
not attach any weight to his statement,
and supposed others would treat 1T in
the same light. 1 do not believe that
the senators mentioned in the published
interviews were in any way Influenced
by Boyd, and for any unguarded words
of mine that may in any manner be
construed as casting a reflection upon
any member of the senate, tender my
apology. The mention made of Sen
ators Crossan andsForney, and the -pur-
ported conversation had with Senator
Charles Johnson in connection with this
matter, are Mistakes
The statement was read and the Sec
rotary was instructed to make it a part

DIDN'T SPEND ENOUGH MONEY
a Committee Says Last Legislature
Did Not Appropriate Enough.

The committee composed of Senators
Householder, Hessin, Cooke, Farrelly
and Matthews, appointed to investigate
the complaint of the citizens of Olathe
in reference to the water works plant
at the state deaf and dumb asylum, has
made a report to the senate. The re-
port states that the evidence does not
SHOW that there was any wrOngdoing
or misappropriation of funds by the
state board of charities, but that the
appropriation of $4,000, made by the
last legislature, was insufficient to con-
struct the entire system with iron pipes,
and that the plant is, in its present
shape, entirely worthless The report
recommends an appropriation of $12, 900
for the completion of the plant.

and is not in default. even on interest.
