His Shortage Is Increasfng-The to-
tai amount of the defalcation of Treas
| urer Bongard, of Carver county, discov-
cred to date, is Sc, 44444.35. This is above
the estimates of Deputy State Treasurer
Koerner, who at the time of the discov-
cry of the crime expressed an opinion
| that the amount would exceed 1000. AL
most daily receipts for taxes are being
presented by farmers for various sums
| of which there is no record on the coun-
| ty treasurer's books, and it Is quite likely
| that the total amount will eventually ex-
| coed $1,000. So far no trace of Bongard
has been discovered.
