GOVERNOR OF TEXAS
INDICTED FOR FELONY
Grand Jury Charges Misapplication
of Funds-Other High Officials
Under Indictment.

Austin, Texas, July 27.-James E.
Ferguson, governor of Texas, was in
dicted on nine charges of felony by
the grand jury of Travis county late
today. The indictments were not
made public tonight when Sheriff
George S. Matthews notified the gov
ernor. Seven of the indictments
charge misapplication of public funds,
one diversion of public funds and one
embczzlemcnt.
Churchill J. Bartlett, secretary of
state, was indicted on six counts,
charging misapplication of funds; c..
0. Austin, commissioner of insurance
and banking, on four counts on the
same charge and G.. l.. Stowe, State
superintendent of buildings and
grounds, one count charging misap-
plication.
The speaker of the Texas house of
representatives called a special ses-
sion for August l to consider wheth-
er articles of impeachment should be
presented against the governor. In
his call the speaker said the most i'm
pOrtant matter to consider was the
governors veto of appropriations for
the University of Texas and alleged
misrepresentation in the awarding of
the West Texas Agricultural and Me-
chanical College to Abilene.
The indictment charging embezzle-
ment contains only one mention of the
sum involved, $1,000.
The charge of diverting a special
fund refers to the fund provided by
the legislature for the purchase of
supplies for the executive mansion. 1t
is charged that the governor applied
this fund to the purchase of various
goods. wares and merchandise not au-
thori2ed by law
OF the seven charges of misappli-
cation Of funds. one refers to the sum
OF SlOl,3li collected by Gov. O. b.
| ColQuitt, EergUSon'S predecessor, as
insurance on the building of the West
Texas Normal School at Canyon City
The governor is alleged to have re-
ceivcd this sum from Colquitt and to
have placed it in the Temple State
Bank.
Immediately after Governor Fergu-
son had been served by the sheriff in
his office he gave bond in the sum of
$4,000 in one case and 81 600 in each
of the others.
Governor Ferguson late tonight an
Swered the nine charges of felony
placed against him late today by in
dictments returned by the Travis
county grand jury by announcing him
self as candidates for governor of Tex
as for third term.
In his statement Governor Fer
guson attributed the indictments
against him to Contemplate politics
inspired by contemplate men," The
basis of the indictments, he declared,
grew out of a deposit of 100000 in
surance money collected in 1913 when
the Canyon City (Texas) State Nor
NAL School was burned; that the mon
ey was deposited by his predecessors
and that when he became governor he
withdrew the money from certain
banks and placed it in other banks
and that the money was paid out
promptly subject to builders esti-
mates for the rebuilding of the Can
yon City Normal. Because he did not
deposit the money in the treasury, he
said, he is charged with a felony.
while no charge is made against his
predecessor.

house was built about IL years ago
by L. w. Phillips, now Of Brattleboro
and occupied by himself and family
until 1914, when he decided to leave
town and sold the place to Almon
Wheelock, who in turn sold to r. L.
Fitch.
The house has been painted within
the last year and is IN good repair
The grounds include about an acre of
land with numerous fruit trees, apple,
pear, plum and small fruit. A rose
hedge borders the cement walks at
each side of the house and climbing
roses have been trained over the wide
piazza.
Possession of the place will be given
at the end of the school year, July l..
