STATE SADDLES THE
COST ON COUNTIES
Practice of PrematureIy DIschareina In
sane Patients Creates Expense

In an effort to save money for the state
and make a good financial record, the
state board of control has lately adopted
the custom of discharging patients from
the asylum for the insane after being on
probation one or two monthss and in many
cases long before they are tit for dis
charge.
court of Hennepin county has been forced
to re-examine ten patients who should not
have been discharged, and the expenses
are charged up to the Individual county
and not to the state. This state Of affairs
is the same all over the state. When
questioned on the subject yesterday, Pro-
bate Judge F. C. Harvey, OF Hennepln
county, said:
ut is the policy of the state to release
on probation from the insane asylum any
patient not maniacal, whose friends or
relatives request such action and agree to
be responsible for him. Up to within the
last two or three years the custom was to
discharge a probationer only after at least
six months had passed and the authorities
were assured of his practical recovery.
sRecently however this term of proba-
ton has been reduced until now it is usual
to discharge patient who has been out
on probation only month or two. While
this practice saves the state the expense
of sending an employee after probat1oner
who may become unmanageable, 1T results
in many re-examinatlonS and large adj
ditional expense to the county courts.
I'm the past year / have re-examined
at least ten patients discharged before
they should have been. From the county
taxpayers viewpoint the practice is ex-
pensiye and seems to be unjust"

SEEK GOLD IN GRAVES
searchers Hunt for Buried
Treasure on Old Farm

-f-
MARION, Ind, July 6.-Search for a
hidden treasure on the farm of the
late James Griffin by unknown persons
has resulted in the searchers not only
making large excavations on the farm,
but in desecrating the family grave
yard in their hunt for gold.
James Griffin is said to have been
an eccentric man. He came to Indiana
when this part of the state was swarm
ing with Indians. He acquired 5000
acres of land along the Mississinewa
river and Walnut creek.
Previous to his death he gave each
OF his children and grandchildren $50
acres of land and $500 in gold The
remainder of his land and property
he sold, converted it into golden eagles,
half-eagles and other gold coins
This gold was buried by Griffin near
his home, at point where Walnut
creek empties into the river. Before
his death he failed to tell any of his
relatives where he had buried the gold,
and for thirty years unknown persons
have worked at night at intervals Of
six to eighteen months in making ex-
cavations on the farm.
1t Is not known that any part of the
treasure has ever been found, and the
fact that parties continue to search is
proof that all of 1t has not been.
benjamin Franklin Griffin, grand
son of James Griffin, now occupies the
old homestead. James Griffin, Jr., a
son Of the early settler, lives on a part
grandchildren are living in this county,
and are solid, influential citizens.
The members of the family who oc-
cupy this land say they do not know
the persons who have been searching
for the treasure.

WIFE BEATS HUSBAND
AND Is FINED $40
Breaks Lamp Chimney ovessW. n. Adam
sons Bald Head

w. II. Adamson, a money lender, ere,
ated quite a sensation in the municipal
court Yesterday morning as a complainant
against his wife, Jennie Adamson, for as,
sault and battery. AS evidence he showed
the court his head on which were thirty
Sunday night. The wife was fined So
The hangers-on at the court secured a
great deal of enjoyment out of the case
and apparently were IN no mood to SYM
pathize with the muchly abused husband.
While the husband testified against his
wife she read a newspaper, ana the more
startling the testimony the deeper her
nose went into the paper, and she never
looked up until called to testify.
She declared that her husband had been
coming home intoxicated nearly every
night for the past thirteen years, and that
she had invariably cared for him as she
would for child. She denied beating
him, saying:
HE is a good man when he is sober,
and for all the money in the world would
not strike him"
Adamson testified that he came home
late for supper Sunday night and was or
dered from the house by his. wife. He
said he would go as soon as he changed
his clothes. While he was getting some
struck him over the head with lamp
chimney which broke and left his head
full of glass and bleeding profusely.
After the assault he said that he tried
to leave the house byt his wife stood
guard with revolver and butcher k1Ii!e
at the door and he had to remain while his
head was bleeding for two hours He
glass removed from his scalp.
Judge Dickinson told the woman that
she had perjured herself and on that ac-
count fined her $40.

SAY RUTH TEACHoUT
WAS NOT IDENTIFIED.
Police Declare That None Of
Her Family Saw Body of
Dead Girl

After what was supposed to have been
Ruth Teachout's body had been buried
almost week, the police department yes
terday decided that the girl had never
been identified by the family. 1t is true
the body was not seen by a single menu
Der of the family at the st. Paul morgue,
but the clothes and cameo ring were clear
ly identified by Eva Teachout ais those of
her sister.
The opinion was expressed quite freely
yesterday that the police department had
on the case that it had accepted the first
suicide theory that turned up, and refused
to examine into all the details of the case
and see whether murder had been COM
mitted or not. 1t is the general opinion
yet that the girl was murdered, and until
the police give a better reason for sui
eide than the little quarrel between the
two sisters over a paraSol- and a pair of
rubbers the last day Ruth was seen alive
the administra TONS ideas will not receive
much attention.
The mystery of the disappearance of
Dudley Cook, 1916 Fifth avenue SOUTH
from his home week ago has caused his
friends to fear that he was inspired to kill
himself by the Teachout case. He has
been attending business college and was
a very impressionable person. He was but
eighteen years old, and his friends declare
that he was especially sentimental and
not very strong mentally Nothing of
his whereabouts is known since a week
ago yesterday, the day on which the first
news of Ruth Teachout's murder was
printed

.PANAMANS OBJECT
Complain of United States New
Shipping Regulations

PANAMA, July 6.-News that
steamers sailing from La Boca must
receive their clearance papers from
the United States authorities has
caused an unfavorable impression here.
Until this order was Issued all steam
ers, though unloading at La Boca, were
received and dispatched by the Pana-
ma authorities.
The newspapers in commenting on
the order consider it as a nisinterpre-
tation of the canal treaty, as unneces-
sary and as tending to create dissatis-
faction here.
Another matter that is being widely
discussed is how Panama can replace
the revenue which the republic will
lose If the goods from the United
States are allowed to enter the canal
zone free Of duty, which practically
amounts to their entrance into Pana-
ma, because smuggling cannot be pre-
vented
The people hope that a satisfactory
arrangement will be made between
Panama and the United States author
tiles.
