FINDS ENORMOUS SHORTAGE
Audit Of Dougherty's Accounts Made
Public-May Reach Nearly
100000.

Peoria, ILL.,, Jan. 3.-The report Of
The Everett Audit company, on the de-
ealcations of N. c. Dougherty was
made public at a meeting Of the school
board Tuesday night. The total short
age for seven years Is $541, 468.5O,
from which will be deducted approx
mately $4,000 for unauthorized, but
warranted, expenditures. Everett
gave it as his opinion that the total
shortage for 18 years would fall
slightly short of $1,O00,00O, stating
that large amounts of forged script
had been found in 1888 and 1889, but
40 totals or estimates on these years
had yet been made. The report scaths
the officers Of the board. the treasur-
ers and presidents especially, the
finance and auditing committees and
the members of the board individual.
ly. The report shows that $332,OO0 of
the shortage was directly manipulated
by the cashing Of fictitious script
through the Peoria National bank, Of
which N. G. Dougherty was president.
1t declares that the bank is liable for
every cent of this amount.

TORNADO PROVES FATAL,
Several Persons Killed During Wind
storm in Albany, qa.-Much
.~ Property Is Ruined.

Albany, Ga, jan "A tornado OF
terrific force passed over Albany at
1880 o'clock Wednesday afternoon,
coming from a southwesterly direction
and spreading ruin and desolation over
portions Of a dozen blocks. Several
persons are dead, others will die, as
the result Of injuries, and many are
more or less seriously hurt. The
known dead are: Ben Jones, q negro
machinest in the employ Of the Vir-
ginia-Carolina Chemical company, and
Jake Johnson, nine-year-old negro
boy. Among those whose injuries
probably will prove fatal are: Luta
GLADDEN., Jesse Davis, Annie Davis,
Jessie Woodall. The list is still in
complete owing to the fact that much
OF the destruction wrought was we'll
beyond the city limits. Reports from
the tornado after it left Albany have
not been received. Hundreds of ne
groes in the city are homeless and
many have lost their household effects.
efforts are being made to secure shell
ter for all. This is difficult, owing to
the scarcity of all kinds of dwelling
houses in the city. Under direction
of Mayor Ralston relief will be Sc
cured and promptly furnished those in
the greatest distress. 1t is difficult to
estimate the property loss. The Vir-
Carolina Chemical company is
the principal sufferer, its destroyed
buildings and machinery having been
worth probably 100000. 1t is safe to
say that the total damage will exceed
$150,000..5 Very little Of the destroyed
property was protected by tornado in
surance.

INTERESTING STAMPS
CHRISTMAS POSTAGE STAMP
CANADA PLACED ON SALE. b
The Design and Three Colors-st
George Staying the Dragon De-
picted on English Stamp
Cross Often Seen.

Stamp collectors point, with no little
satisfaction, to the fact that the great
est gift in the world, next to the adj
vent of Him in reverence for whom the
day is commemorated, was postage
stamp of the value of two cents. i
On Christmas day, 1898, Great Bri-
tain presented to all Of her 81 coolnies
Christmas gift in the form of two
cent letter postage, the new rate to
take effect on that day and to super
sede the previous rate of five cents
which for deacdes had existed between
the parent government and the colo
MES.
In honor of this event Canada placed
on sale, Christmas morning, 1898,
Christmas postage stamp, the only
stamp of the kind that has ever been
issued by any country. In many re-
spects this postal label is unique
among all postage stamps. It was
larger than our Columbian stamps, and
depicted map of the world With the
possessions of the British empire
printed in bright scarlet The oceans
frame Of the design in black. Across
the top appears the inscription "Cana-
da Postage" with crown resting on
laurel leaves tucked IN between the
words. At the extreme lower part of
the design Is the boastful declaration:
1--WE hold vaster empire than has
been." Above this: Xmas, 1885," and
figure 2" in each lower corner.
1t IS worthy of note that this Cana
dian stamp was printed by bank note
company In the United States. It
marks new epoch in stamp produc-
ton, having three colors. Bi-colored
stamps are not uncommon, but up to
this time no country mad ever attempt
ed three-color stamp.
While it Is true that Christmas has
received scant attention by designers
OF postage stamps, the Christian reli-
gion has not been neglected. The story
of st. George, the patron saint OF Eng
land, Staying the dragon, is depicted on
a stamp; st. Michael, the patron saint
of Belgium, is Staying another dragon
on stamps of that country issued IN
1897; Portugal devotes an entire series
of stamps to St. Anthony, depicting
him sermonizing to the fishes; his Wis
ion of the child Jesus; his ascension
and another design presents his por-
trait. Upon the early stamps of the
Virgin islands is shown a full-length
representation of the Virgin Mary
Recent issues of the stamps of Malta
picture the shipwreck of St. Paul; the
stamps of the papal states show the
| triple tiara and the crossed keys of
heaven of which the pope claims guar
dianship.
| The cross is frequently found on
postage stamps, and upon some issues
it is the principal feature. The stamps

pict as the central feature a Latin
cross, to which robed female clings

with her right hand, while she steadies
harp with her left. A stamp issued
by Venezuela commemorative the dis
covery of the mainland of South Amer
lea shows full-length Latin cross
planted on the seashore, around which
the discoveries are gathered.
The Samoan five-pence stamp is a
reproduction of the Samoan flag. A
white Greek cross upon a carmine
background, with white star in the
upper left-hand corner. The stamp Of
the island of Tonga has a similar
cross On a shield. This stamp, as well
as the Samoan, were designed by mis-
sionaries on the islands. '1
The early Swiss stamps all have as
the central figure a shield in black
with red cross in the center. The red
shield with. white Greek cross was
adopted by the Swiss army as early as
1889. At Geneva, in 1863. an interna-
tional conference was held to consider
how far the horrors of war could be
mitigated by aid to sick and wounded.
The result was the adoption Of the
red cross on white shield-a reversal
of the order on war shields of 1893
the beginning of the RED Cross Soci-
ETY." Portugal has issued distinct
i've Red Cross stamp, which carried
mail for that organization free.
A red shield with a silver cross in
the center constitutes the coat of arms
Of the house of Savoy and this appears
upon many of the stamps of italy. The
stamps of British Central Africa also
depict the Greek cross upon a coat Of
arms, and crosses appear in the upper
corners of the stamps Of Abyssinia,
and upon the coat Of arms Of Servian
stamps Of the first issue.

DEPEW IS ASKED
TO QUIT Senate
DEMAND FOR HIS RESIGNATION
INTRODUCED IN THE NEW
YORK LEGISLATURE.
After Lengthy Debate the Resolu-
ton Is Withdrawn - Connection
with Insurance Scandals the Basis
for the Demand.

- Albany, N. Y, Jan. AT the OPEN
ing gathering of the one hundred and
tWenty-ninth session of the state legis-
lature Wednesday Senator Edgar S.
Bracket, Of Saratoga, introduced a
resolution demanding of Chauncey M.
Depew his resignation as United States
senator from this state. The resolu-
ton follows:
Since the adjournment of this SEN
ate the people of the state and nation
have been staggered by the relation
shown to have existed for years be-
tween the Equitable Life Assurance So
ciety and Chauncey M. Depew, one of
the senator's of the state in the United
States congress.
Recognizing that these disclosures
have caused total lack of confidence
in the ability of the senator named to
represent properly the people in the
body to which he was elected;
Resolved, by the senate, that
Chuancey M. Depew be, and he hereby
is, requested to resign forthwith his
seat in the United States senate"
The resolution was withdrawn after
considerable discussion. The with
drawal followed long debate in the
senate. In recalling it Senator Brack-
EFT specified that he intended to- intro
duce it again at q later date. Senator
Raines, who wanted immediate action.
in which he desired to defeat the reso-
lutioin, objected to it's withdrawal, but
upon roll call the withdrawal was
allowed by vote of ~ to 10. This
cannot be regarded as test vote upon
the main question, however.
Will Not Resign.
New York, Jan. 4.-Senator Chaun-
cey M. Depew, in an interview here
Wednesday night, declared that he had
no intention whatever of resigning
from the United States senate. He
added, however, that with the ap-
proach of his seventy-second birthday
anniversary, April % next, he intended
resigning from large number of the
companies in which he is trustee or
director. He will not sever his rela-
tons with the New York Central and
Hudson River railroad, he stated, as
he regards his position with that COM
pany as an honorary one. Senator De-
pew is listed as a director or trustee
of 70 companies.
