Compel a Report or Shake the
Leedy "MetS,"

The following is the report of the COM
nittee appointed by the council to investi-
gate the police commission submitted last
night:
Wichita, Kan, March Il, 1888.
Hon. Mayor and Council:
Gentlemen-Your special committee ap-
pointed by your honorable mayor TO in
vestigate matters pertaining to the police
commissioners office, would respectfully
beg leave to report as follows:
We called ON police commissioners Sat
urday a. m, March Z, and upon inquiries
made by your committee, were informed
that inasmuch as a former committee had
just completed thorough examination of
their books which would published in full
in the Commoner, that they objected in
permitting your committee to examine
said books.
In the way of explanation as to why
no itemized statements had been furn-
ished the city council monthly, and why
moneys collected by them had not been
turned over to city treasurer, they stated
that they made up such a statement
monthly 10 the governor only. and such
statements to the city were not in ac-
cordance with the law, as to not paying
any money over to city recently they
stated heretofore such moneys had been
turned over to the city treasurer, at least
their surplus for account of the police
fund and that same had been transferred
by city treasurer from said police fund
into the general fund and used without
consent or authority from the police COM
missioners and in order to protect their
police warrants they had concluded to
hold any surplus money for future con-
tingencies that might arise.
Reasons given by them for decrease in
collections since September last, which
have been grading down were that police
judges collections varied from month to
month and that collections had been less
in their department; they further stated
that on account of demands made on
them for more police service in the var
ious districts they had added seven police
men to force thereby increasing their pay
roll three hundred and fifty dollars a
month.
In view of the fact that there seems
to be decided difference of opinion, be-
tween your committee and the police COM
missIoners, as to whether the commits
eioners are not required to make itemzed
statements of their collections to the city
council, we would recommend that the
city attorney be instructed to advise this
council as to proper Interpretation of the
law on this point.

LAW AND ORDER At VERNAL
JUDGE RHODES COMPLAINS OF
PREJUDICE.
Why He Wanted a Change of Venue
For Jim Mckee, Charged With As
saulting Attorney Leuthi.

vernal. April 1.-The case of James
Mckee on the charge o. assault with
a deadly weapon, comm tied upon the
person of County Attorney F. S.
Luethi, came up for triai in the dis
trict court this morning. Judge Rhodes,
for the defense. moved for a change
OF venue, on the ground that the as
sistant prosecutor. s. r. Thurman, in
his argument in the Yarnell damage
case yesterday, attempted to prejudice
the minds of the jurors against him
self and mis- clients, by stating that
he was engaged in an undertaking
that, if successful, would result in
wholesale robbery. rapine and murder.
He further contended in his argu-
ment on the motion for q change that
the recent affair at Browns Park, had
excited the populace to the extent Of
creating so much prejudice as to ex-
Guide the possibility OF fair and i'm
partial trial OF the case against Nc
Kee. He also alluded to the confer
ence of the governors at Salt Lake,
In which the best means Of Kidding the
country of thugs and outlaws was dis
cussed, and the manner in which the
press of the state had agitated the
matter. All of which. he contended,
had had the effect of inflaming the
minds of the public to such a degree
that if suspicion was directed against
a man his conviction was sure to fol-
low
The prosecution secuted these state
ments, and urged that the case be
brought to trial. and volunteered the
statement that the people were only
asking that justice be done, and that
If any feeling existed against violators
of the laws, the experience of the past
few months justified it, but it did not
necessarily follow that a person
charged with an offense against the
state would be unfairly or unjustly
dealt with. Tive arguments on the mo-
ton being concluded. his honor settled
the quest by denying the motion.
The prosecution stated that one of
the main witnesses was seriously i'll,
and asked that time be given to
ascertain whether he was able to die
tate a deposition. The request was
granted, and an adjournment taken
until l O'clock.
The major part of the afternoon was
consumed in securing a jury, which
was finally accomplished. and the
complaining witness F. s. Luethi was
placed upon the stand. The eXamina-
ton of Mr.. Luethi was not concluded
when court adjourned this evening.

BLANCO'S ORDER A FARCE.
dockery of It Described By Clergy
man Traveller.

Washington, April 4.-Rev. Eugene
May, who has been travelling in Cuba.
returned to his home here yesterday.
His report of the conditions in the is
land differs in no essential detail from
that of Senators Proctor. Thurston,
Gallinger and others who have recent
ly spoken and written on the subject.
Dr. May says in addition:
THE recent revocation of the recon-
centrado order is a farce, as the people
to whom il applies are too ill to work
and have nothing to start with Blanks
have been issued TO the starving
wretches, which are TO be filed out
with acquisitions for whatever they
need and sent to Havana. The mock
cry of it is that the farce ends with
sending in the blanks. Nothing more
is ever heard of them.
THE relief work is going forward
rapidly in 100 towns. but there are be-
tween 1000 and 10000 reconcentrados
who must die, however. generous the
relief. for they are beyond help"

IDAHO COUNTY DEFALCATION.
Sensational Developments Looked
For In the Woodin Case.

Blackfoot, Ida. April Sensational de-
veloDments are looked for tomorrow in
the case of w. A. Woodin. treasurer of
Bingham county. Since the court rem
dered judgment against Woodin and his
bondsmen for $34 900 last week. the bonds
men have been endeavoring to effect a
settlement with the county by paying
about one-fifth of their liabilities. d. II.
Beithan. a merchant of Blackfoot one
of the bondsmen for the sum of 5000,
has been the active party in trying to
effect the compromise This afternoon
he approached Woodin and asked him to
assist in the endeavor to make a settle
ment and also contribute his two years
salary as treasurer. This Woodin de-
clined to do as he is DESTROYS of having
the supreme court pass on the matter.
Now Beithan threatens to have Woodn
arrested for violation of an old statute
that makes it a felony for any officer en-
trusted with public moneys to make any
other than a special deposit of the same.
The county funds Were on general de-
post in the bank of Bunting & Co. when
it failed last year. as-has been the Gus
tom since the creation of the county. The
statute has always been disregarded. If
the bondsmen are called on to pay, it
will no doubt cripple them badly. hence
the anxiety for settlement. 1t is likely
this move against Woodin is for the pur-
pose of intirnidating him.

NEW FISH RESERVATION.
Fish Creek, Utah County, Stocked
With Rainbow Trout.

Provo, April 4.-The board of county
commissioners held their regular
monthly session today. Several com
n.unications, relating mostly to re-
leases of lands sold and taxes, and the
reduction of the delinquent tax levies,
were presented and acted upon.
The reports of the justices of the
peace for Utah county were received
and their claims for fees amounting to
s11S.95, were allowed.
The county surveyor was instructed
to survey and locate the county road
TO Hobble Greek canyon, as far as AL
bert Staten's place, the county and Mr.
Staten to contribute to the expense in
CURED by the surveyor in equal pro-
portions.
Upon the suggestion of State Game
Warden John Sharp, and County War
den n. Z. Newell, Fish creek, in Utah
county, was declared TO be a fish res
ervation. for a period of three years.
Fish creek is one of the tributaries of
Price river, and has its headwaters
near Soldier Summit it is understood
that Mr.. A. 2. Welby has planted a
choice lot of rainbow trout in the
stream, and it was for this reason that
the game wardens made the SUCCESS
ton. Notice of the reservation was or
dered published and the necessary
amount to defray the expenses appro-
priated.
The petition of Sanford B. Wilson
asked for the privilege of renting a por-
ton of the county road near Thistle
Junction for the purpose of erecting a
saloon. The petition also stated that
it was a we'll known fact that parties
residing near Thistle We're selling liquor
without license, and in view of this
state of affairs, he desired that a re-
bate of so per month be allowed him
on his license. The petition was
promptly denied. 1t appears that the
roalroad company owns most of the
land in the vicinity of Thistle, and re-
fuses to rent any land to be used for
the erection of a saloon, it being the
desire of the company to prevent the
sale of liquor to railroad men. The
commissioners thought that it would
corduce to the public safety to disallow
the petition.
There is a great deal of business still
before the board, and it is probable
that another meeting will be held to-
morrow.
