COLORADO STATE AFFAIRS AND
DOINGS AT THE CAPITAL CITY
Second Sui, Against Rouse.

Another suit was filed Septem-
Der 29th in the District Court
at Denver against Van E. Rouse
former treasurer OF the State
Worlds Fair Board, asking him
for $22l-s9, representing the sum al
legged to have been in the possession
OF the defendant at the time of his
removal and the appointment Of Harry
Casady to succeed him. The suit was
filed by Attorney General y. c. Miller
for Harry Casady.
The complaint sets forth that on Aug
ust 5. 1901. the governor appointed
the board to display at the fair the
wealth of Colorado and at that time
appointed Rouse as treasurer. On
May 8. 1902. it is stated that Rouse
gave SIe.oe0 bond with the American
Bonding and Trust Company of Balti-
more as security. and later. on August
3, 1908, Rouse was put out OF office by
the governor and Harry Casady ap-
pointed in his place.
II is claimed that at that time Rouse
had $221.s9 on hand in cash which he
refused to give over to his successor,
and the suit asks judgment for that
amount with interest at the rate OF
eight per cent per annum from August
10, 1903.
A few weeks ago the former suit
was filed in the district court against
Rouse asking Judgment for more thar
$4,000. 1t was claimed that he had
taken this amount out OF the general
fund to use for the construction OF
buildings. This sum had been sepa-
rated from the other funds in order 10
keep it from reyerting to the general
fund according to law. If not used with
in year from the date OF appropria-
tion.
Rouse claims that the governor had
no right 10 remove him from the office
of treasurer and on this ground re-
fuses to turn over the money The
board on the other hand claims that
the governor mad a perfect right to
remove him and that further. even II
he did not have the right. the board
itself had the right to remove Rouse
as treasurer At the time Rouse was
removed, George W. Thatcher was also
removed as president OF the board.
and Paul Wilson appointed in his
place.

question raised Monday as to whether

Quire the approval of the president in
order to render them operative He
said that it had never been the prac-
