SAY STATE ACCOUNTS
WERE IN BAD SHAPE
INVESTIGATORS STATE MANY
BILLS PAID TWICE.
Report of Accountants Says Criminal
Shortage in Cattle and Merchan-
disc Accounts of Insane Asy-
lum Were Found.

Starkville.-Aiore documentary evt
dence showing how the taxpayers OF the
state were detrauded through the mis-
management of the State Insane Hos
pital at Jackson has been given out here
by the legislative investigating commit
tee, which is probing state institutions
and state departments. The evidence
was taken from another installment Of
the final report OF R. G. Cranch & Co.,
of Philadelphia, Pa, who were employed
to audit the books OF the insane asylum
The report OF the auditors shows that,
as a result of the lax system Of account
ing at the asylum, several bills against
the institution were paid twice. The
bills that were paid twice range from a
few dollars up to over 500, and in the
aggregate amount to Q considerable sum
of money.
The state owns q tract OF land on
which the asylum is located OF about
1900 or 300 acres, about 500 acres OF
which is in cultivation. Under proper
management the asylum farm ought tc
yield considerable revenue, but the aud
itors were unable to secure much infor
nation about the states income from
that source on account of the failure o.
the asylum employees to keep a propei
record. Discussing this, the accountant
said.
"Thc miscellaneous income of the insti
tuition has been kept in a d~eplorably la
shape. The only record we have OF sue
property is in many cases in the entry o
the deposit money in the bank passbool
and the re-entry of such deposit in tn
voucher record OF the institution. Thi
record gives very little detail and lump
a large number of the items in such
way that it is impossible to say whethe
all the institution was entitled to ha
been actually deposited.
Some of the large payments out c

MUCH DAMAGE
Done COTTON
CONSIDERABLE PORTION OF DETE
RIORATION WAS NATURAL.
BOIL WEEVIL WAS ACTIVE
Farmers in infested Areas Have Given
UP Attempt to Pick Them OF
Plants-Picking General and
Ginning Will Be Heavy.

Deterioration has been heavy to the
cotton crop over the entire belt during
the past two weeks. Much Of this loss
has been due to the natural decline Of
the plant with maturity. This is spe
cially true in Georgia and the C%arolinas,
where the promise is still good for an
excellent yield. But in the remainder OF
the belt natural deterioration has been
augmented by heavy loss, due to the hot,
dry weather, and, in infested areas, to
the boil weevil.
In all of the western section Of the
belt and in Tennessee, Mississippi and
Alabama, the deterioration, due to dry
weather, has been marked, and the prom
Use OF the yield has been appreciably cut.
A large majority of correspondents in
this territory state that the prospect has
changed from the best outlook in years
30 days ago to one of the worst in many,
many years. The plant is shedding heav'
lily and young hollis are being forced open
prematurely by the heat and drouth,
There is almost solid unanimity of opin
ion that a top crop is practically out OF
the question.
In Mississippi, Louisiana and parts Of
Southern Alabama the second Matching
OF the boil weevill is doing great dam
age, and farmers have given up as hope
less all efforts to pick them from thu
cotton and burn them. Their damage Il
Texas is i~nconsequential.
An unusual amount Of cotton is opel
for the season of the year, and in spit
of the hot weather picking is going oil
rapidly, with the result that Septelnbe
ginning figures bid fair to break all rec
ords. East Of the river there is a dispc
sition on the part Of farmers to hol
their cotton for even higher prices. Their
is hardly a single complaint OF lack O
sufficient labor to gather the crop .,
p~editiously. West of the river continue
clear, open weather is desired to eXpedit
the gathering of the crop, as it Is gel
