TREASURY IS SHORT
DEFICIENCY OF S7S,O0O REPORTED
 BY EXAMINER.
Time of Shortage Covers Terms of Two Treasurera, But Former Treas urer Says Is Square With
 Kansas.

Topeka. Kas. Jan. 16.-A total shortage in the Kansas State Treasury of about s7s,Ooo is shown by the re- port of accountant Morris in the Treas ury examination just closed according to summary of the report prepared by Governor II. W. Hoch, and made public late this afternoon.
 The report covers all the transactions made by theState Treasurer from Jan. l, 1898. to June 30. 1905. inclyuding the sWU state treasurer Frank Grimes and one term and six months of the ad- mfnistration of Thomas T. Kelley, the present State Treasurer. The larger part of the shortage appears in the ac- counts in the office during the Grimes administration. Of the total of $7S.- 900, $60,444 is due to missing coupons from bonds owned by the State school fund and $1S.0OO Is due to loss of in- terest oa warrants issued by the ter ritory of Oklahoma to the State of Kan sas.
 Governor Hoch tonight declined to discuss any action that he might take with regard to the results of the i'm vestigation. Former State Treasurer Frank E. Grimes issued statement to- night. He absolutely denies any re- sponsibilty for the shortage In Okla homa warrant interest and says he Is able to Account satisfactorily for all the bond coupon shortages except $I- 125. MT, Grimes states that he is will ling to make good any shortage he is responsible for.
 In his statement Mir Grimes puts the responsibility for a number of serious discrepancies on c. R. Richey, his chief clerk.

ATTACK ON BYRON
POETS DEEDS AsSAILED sAvAGELY
 BY HIS OWN GRANDSON.
Defends Wife of AuthOr-Says She Was Justified in Acts by Her Husbands Relations With.
 HaIf-SiHter.

London Special Cable Dispatch to Chi
 cago Record Herald.
 One of the greatest literary sensa- tions of recent years Is likely to follow
 the revelation of the contents of a
 book written for private circulation by
 the Earl of Lovelace about his grand
 father, Lord Byron. Lovelace's mother
 was Ada, Byron's only legitimate child,
 and the object of the Earl Is to vindi-
 cate his grandmother, the poets wife, concerning whom the opinion has be- come stereotyped. owing to the general trend of Byronic literature, that she caused Byron's exile and wrecked his career by her harsh, unsympathetic att titude.
 Lord Lovelace's is the astound- ing disclosure that the allegation, made originally in 1870 by Harriet
 Beecher Stowe, of Byron's relations with his half-siste Augusta, whom he met only when both were grown up and she was married, rested not on sus- picion of malicious gossip, but upon a confession made to Lady Byron by Au- guska herself. It is asserted that Lady Byron thereupon justifiably refused to ever see her husband again, but out of consideration for Augusta, to whom she ever afterward was devoted | friend. she preserved inviolate their dreadful secret bearing in heroic si- lence criticisms and misrepresentations which a word from her could have dis pelled instantly
 The Earl of Lovelace is now 66 years old. a man of rather morose and eccen- tric disposition and evidently consumed bv virulent animosity toward Lord By ron's memory. Apart from the appall- ing charge which he solemnly makes
 on what he claims to be irrefutable evil dence he bitterly assails Byron's char acter generally, asserting that as known through Byronic literature 1t Is
 nureIv fictitious, creation made to suit bookselIers' requirements.
 Rvronic authorities are profoundly aeitated by Lovelace's revelations and
 refuse to accept them without fullest
 inanIrv It has always been recog- nizcd however. not only from the theme of Manfred" and other writings of the noat but. most of all, because of John Nfnrroy's destruction of Byron's diary, an act that Augusta strongly approved, ie moi solicited. that the mystery sur
 roundinp this painful episode in the
 noat,s life has never satisfactorily been dissipated.

WHITE INSTRUCTED
suURrCAN AMBASSADORS PLANS
 ARE MAPPED OUT.
Secretary Root Says That America Must Act As Harm0nizfnG Agency at Conference of
 Nations at Algecires.

washington, Jan. 16.--What part
 will be played by the Washington gov
 ernment in the Moroccan conference
 now convening at Algeciras is clearly
 set forth in the instructions prepared
 by Secretary Root for the American
 delegates, Mir. White. the American Ambassador at Rome. and Mir. Gum
 mere the American Minister at Tan gier.
 These instructions are included in a compilation of confidential correspond enc e relative to the Moroccan confer ence prepared at the Department Of State for the convenience and informa- tion of the American delegates. In placing the confidential imprimata on these instructions the department Is following time honored custom which antedates even tho initiation Of the policy in the pursuance of which this government consented to participate Tn back to 1s36 in which year the United States with other countries entered into treaty relations with Morocco. By this treaty the Washington govern ment shares with other Powers certain privileges among them that attaching to the most favored nation treatment. At the outset of his letter of in- structions the Secretary announces that the participation of the United States in this conference is based ex- cIusiveiy upon it's treaty rights with
 Morocco a. encouragement of which is now proposed by the Sultan who has extended invitations to the United States and other powers signatory to
 the treaty of 1880 to join in confer ence to discuss the manner for suitable reforms which the Sultan has decided to introduce in his Empire.
 By the treaty of 1880 1t Is pointed out that this government is pledged the right of protection of a specia | class of native Moors. Further thar | this the treaty rights of this govern ment, it is declared, are confined to ar | equal share in whatever priveleges o commerce and protection of residence | may be enjoyed by other foreigners. l As has been repeatedly announced by | the department, the attitude of thi' government to the policies of Morocco is clearly laid down in the instruction.
