FIREBUGs LEAVING STATE
Adjustors and Officials Report That
Activity of Marshals Has Notice
able Effect on Operations.

Madison.-Adjusters and officials
report that the activities of the state
and local fire marshals in investigat-
ing and prosecuting firebugs is hav-
ing an appreciable effect ON the oper-
ations of such men. The Wisconsin
department is satisfied that the num-
Der of fires from this source is de-
creasing from year to year owing to
the activity of the department AS
in the case of the recent develop
ments of the Waukesha hotel fire, the
investigation of which has been go
ing on continuously for almost two
years, relentless stirring OPP of the
suspected parties from time to time
has a salutary effect on the criminal
iy-minded class in that and other
communities. The department keeps
complete record OF the investiga-
ton of each fire, and these records
are becoming @lore valuable each
year. The repeating" firebugs are
believed to be gradually driven from
wisconsin by fear of detection, or
by inability longer to secure insur-
ance. over-insurance is the primary
cause in most cases.

Watertown.--The historic Carl
Schurz home in this city, occupied by
the famous German-American states
man for many years, has been de-
stroyed by fire. The building might
have been saved but for inadequate

serving the place. The home was
built by Schurz in 1852, and was oc-
cupied by the Civil war veterans foi

INDlANs HAVE LARGE CREDIT
Wisconsin Tribes Are the Wealthiest
East of the Mississippi River.
Says interior Report.

Washington, d. C.-Wisconsin' S
Indian tribes are the weaithiest east
of the Mississippi river, according to
the official report of the fiscal affairs
of Indian tribes. just sent to congress
by the secretary of the interior.
The Menominee tribe has to it's
credit in the hands Of the government
$1,671,697. while the Chippewas
have $SS,070, and the Stockbridge
and Munsees have $79,731. In adj
dition to this, the Pottawattomies
share in a fund of $439,0S7, held
jointly for them and the Pottawatto-
mics of Kansas; the Winnebagoes of
Wisconsin join with the fellow mem
bers OF their tribe in Nebraska in
fund OF $9OS,S61, and the Oneidas
of Wisconsin ana New York share in
a fund of $79,659.
But these funds are not growing
any larger, despite the fact that the
government credits the Indians with
an annual interest income of 4 per
cent, From the Menominee fund, for
instance, a deduction of $311,TS3
was made for salaries of employees
while $266,S61 was spent under the
title of for support and civilization"
This, however, does not include the
expenses of the Indian schools, main
tanned from a separate fund and for
which the following expenditures
We're made in Wisconsin: Hayward
day school, S1.119; Keshena board
ing school, $1,000; Keshena day
school, $722; Lac du Flambeau
boarding school. $24,712: La Pointe
day school, $500; Oneida boarding
school, $22,975; Red Cliff day school,
S1.S06; Wittenharg boarding school.
$19,S71.
The secretary's report shows that
the aggregate sum to the credit OF
the Indian tribes in Uncle Sam s
treasury is s44,519,5S3.

PLAN ILLNESS INSURANCE
Bill to Be Considered Providing New
Feature in Conjunction With Work
mems Compensation Law.

Madison. Sickness insurance for
working men and women, to be adj
ministered by the state industrial
commission of the workmen's com
pensation act, is one of the plans
to be worked out for presentation
as bill in the next Wisconsin leg
islature.
The plan will provide that every
workman shall contribute a small
part of his wages toward the insur-
ance fund, and that the employer
shall do likewise. The state is con-
stitutionally prohibited from assist
ing with funds as is the case in the
English system.
In it's broad features the bill will
contain provision that the sickness
insurance shall not lapse in case of
unemployment. 1t is possible. in
the event of the enactment of this
law, that a man who is under the
terms of the workmen's compensa-
ton law and has been injured in an
accident will be barred from drawing
both compensation and sickness in
surance. The industrial commission,
it is proposed, will be given broad
powers of administration and will
decide the amount to be paid as
claims are filed.

SUGGESTS MERGER
OF STATES FUNDS
Secretary of State Submits FL
nanCial Plans to Governor.
WOULD SIMPLIFY SYSTEM
Presents Outline of Method by Which
All Disbursements Gould Be Audited
by One Department-Tax Remission
Would Be Possible II 1918.

Madison.-The merger of at least
seven funds into the states gtneral
fund, prediction that tax remis-
.sions will be possible in 1913, re-
neWal of his recommendation for the
budget system of appropriations, a
plea for a law requiring appropria-
ton bills to be submitted to the aH-
diting department before passage in
order to make them conform with
present methods of state accounting.
and statement of the large increase
in printing bills owing to the failure
to secure competitive bids are con-
tanned in the biennial report of Sec
rotary of State E'rear, submitted to
the governor
Secretary Frear notes the fact that
over $10,000.000 of state disburse-
ments are now audited by this de-
partment annually, a duty deyolving
upon a state auditor in most other
states. The total book disbursements
for the fiscal year 1919 were $13,-
29s,720.54.
AAo dAAOuHL mas DSSn lnCOIISCt-
ly accepted by the uniformed as the
| actual expense of state government,
says the secretary. However,
1891, 579.69 of the total disburse-
ments is for transfers or duplicate
| payments. Every appropriation
from the general fund to another
fund necessarily appears as a book
disbursement. When this identical
money is disbursed from the fund
to which it was transferred, it again
appears on the records as disburse-
ment"
These items deducted from the to-
tai leaves the actual state expense
at $S,060,224. Automobile license
money, which is not retained for
state purposes; capitol construction
funds, and similar items should right
