coupons were clipped from the bonds.
The petition alleges that these missing
coupons were in place when the bonds
were purchased by the state school
fund commission The attorney gen
eral does.not attempt to state who took
them Of, If they were clipped.
There are shortages of the same
character in connection with two pur-
chases of bonds for the Agricultural
college permanent fund. One is a,
shortage of $50 on two Gray county
bonds of $500 each, purchased from
D. E. Dunno & Co, December II, 1902.
The other is a shortage of $50 on five

Oklahoma Warrant Shortage.
The petition also demands that the
state treasurer refund se.668.O1 on &C
count Of the sales of the Oklahoma
warrants. There are two clauses IN
this cause Of action. The first relates
that seven Oklahoma warrants which
were sold by the state treasurer have
that the actual loss IN interest suffered
by the state of Kansas because the
treasurer did not keep them was ST.
645sS8- These seven warrants amount
ed to $28,6O1.2S. The treasurer sold
them to outsiders for S30.615.01. When
they were redeemed by the territory
the interest brought their value up to
1872, 256.89. The other clause of the
cause of action referred to relates to
Oklahoma warrants which have been
sold by the state treasurer, but which
have not yet been paid by Oklahoma
and which are still drawing interest.
In regard to these the petition says;
The plaintiff further says that besides
the warrants hereinbefore mentioned
there were issued by the said Oklahoma
territory to the state of Kansas on &C
count of the said penitentiary contract,
large number of other warrants be-
October 20, 1904, inclusive, the aggre-
was ssh 1855, ali Of which were intsnesG
bearing warrants as hereinbefore stated,
and were received by the said defendant
during his said first term of office: that
the average time which all of said war
rants have borne interest and the aver
age time which the said last named
warrants will bear interest is two years;
and that II same had been held until
"calIed," the state OF Kansas would be
entitled to receive upon the same when
paid, In addition to the face value OF
the same, not less than two years In
terest thereon, at 6 per cent per annum
making the total value of the said war
rants so issued as aforesaid with in
terest S6S, 965.09; but that said warrants
were sold and disposed of by the said
state treasurer at sundry dates between
April %, 1904 and November %, 1904 in
elusive, for the aggregate sum, principal
and interest, of S64, 6s1.35, making the

T. T. Kelly and his sos bondsmen
were made defendants ia a suit filed in
the Shawnee county district court late

collecting the shortage of s10,575.87

There are three causes of action in
the petition filed by the attorney gen

age of s3.S0s.S6, caused by coupons
clipped by some one from bonds pur-
chased by the state school fund com
mission. The second relates to a
shortage of 500. arising from the same
cause, in connection with bonds pur-
| chased for the agricultural college per
manent fund. The third cause of ac-
ton charges a shortage of S6,688.87
on account of the sale of the Okla
homa warrants.
Kelly is accused in the petition with
shortages in the interest account on
twelve bond issues purchased by the
state school fund commission. These
| shortages range from 800 on the Lin
coin township. Ellsworth county
bonds to S26-57 on the bonds of the
city Of Leroy. The allegations in the

/ shortage. The clause relating to the
