State House. Des Moines. Iowa, April
5.-There was trouble with the steam
roller today and It wholly failed to
work, with the result that instead Of
making gains for Kenyon he made q
substantial loss. For several days It has
been an open secret that the Kenyon
mon are becoming thoroughly dissatis-
fled. and that the leaders now admit
freely that there. has been at no time
any possibility. OF 4Kenyon's election.
Small conferences have been held to
consider the aAvisability Of turning to
some compromss4 candidate and taking
up with the original suggestion Of some
OF the Kenyonam men that = short term
candidate be elected.
First evidence of, thiS came on the
roll call when pascom. OF Dickinson.
changed from Kenyon to George M.
Curtis, Of Clinton. A little later this
was followed bY Dixon. OF Sac. doing
the same thinss and near the end Of the
roll call Whitney. plunicd third vote
for Curtis. In the meantime Senator
stillman. had voted foraPaul 9tillman,
which vote stirred the house members
to sinceresepplause. There Wa1 also q
stir Of excitement when B.SA. Newell
and Pattcrson changed from Kenyon
to Deeuer. but vsro induced later to
change back before the result was an
nounced. There II no doubt the Ken
yon men have been looking for a third
candidate for coynpromise.

Special to Times-Republican.
Fort Dodge, April 5.--A shortage Of
nearly $4,000 was discovered today in
the accounts Of George G. Anderson,
cashier Of the Vincent Savings Bank, at
Vincent, q small town east Of this city.
When tho bank examiner last week no.
tifled the directors that some papers
were missing and loans were given on
bad security. Anderson skipped out af-
ter turning over deeds, to real estate.
The directors thought this real estate
would cover the shortage until today.
when further Investigation was made.
The bank depositors are protected by
the stockholders, who have signed q
note for $4,000 to cover the shortage.
Anderson is not thought dishonest by
the directors and depositors OF the
bank. but merely careless in lending
sums to q brother in Canada on bad
security. These loans he could not
make good.
