Special TO Times Republican.
Dubuque, May 13-The admission OF

the municipal water works plant, Sat
u1'day night that he is an embezzler, Is
proving the greatest sensation of the
long drawn out scandal. A shortage/ot
$579 has been discovered tho the inves-
tiigation Is not fairly begun. Macarthur
held the superintendency under the old
regime, recently deposed, and was re-
tained by the law trustees. His resig-
nation was called for and has been
handed in, Confronted with the short
.at,e, Macarthur said his personal ex-
penses had been heavy and he had taxi
Ell money ever since he had had charge
OF the plant. The city attorney is
looking up the evidence and that mat
ter will be presented to the grand Jury.
Macarthur would collect water rent,
give receipt, make a credit on the
ledger, ignoring the cash book. Bills
were made out from the ledger. The
new trustees began making out bills
from the cash book, when the patrons
appeared with receipted bills. 1t is be-
lisved that others are implicated. Nc
Arthur is connected with the first fam
lilies Of the city. He was placed under

Boone, May 13.-The story which
appeared in Sundays edition of the
LES Moines Register and Leader, in
which the statement was made as COM
ing from Boone, that Frank Meyer had
at last admitted knowing that his
brother, Charles Meyer. of the Western
Federation Of Miners, had served a
term in the penitentiary, is absolutely
without any foundation whatever 1t Is
claimed that Frank Meyer never gave
out any such an interview and never
Tnade the statements which are cred
tied to him. The correspondent Of the
Register and Leader in Boone stated
Sunday that the information had not
been secured thru him, and that he
was at a loss to know how the story
s,ot to that paper. The relatives of the
mining chief in Boone are very indig-
rlant and want to empha tically deny
the Register and Leaders story as
false from the beginning to the end.
None Of the relatives here have ever
given out any such information and all
insist that their brother is innocent.

Omaha, Neb., May 13.-The special
train filed with the committee Of fifty
members of the Omaha grain exchange,
which has been making a tour Of in
vestigation of the Nebraska and Kan
sas wheat fields, returned this morn
ing. The concensus Of opinion follows:
Wheat, especially in the southeastern
portion Of Nebraska, has suffered, about
10 per cent owing to the influx of green
bugs and continued drouth. In Sumner
county, Kansas, wheat will not make
over ~ per cent. The bugs have done
great damage to the fields we have ex-
amined. Some of the members de-
clare the entire crop is ruined between
Caldwell, Kas., and Wichita, a distance
of fifty miles. The party agree that the
yield of wheat this year will be very
light compared to former years.
I'VE find wheat in mighty bad con-
dition,"1 concludes the report. The
party covered the district Of Kansas
and Nebraska, which in the past al
ways raised bumper crops.
