While naturally the COMPANY is

large shortage, it is absolutely SOL
vent said E. E. Brown, vice presi-
dent of the First National Bank of
Chicago, at whose offices meeting of
creditors was held today
1t will be some time before the
assets turned over by Thomson can
be liquidated." he continued. "and
while the banks interested will give
the company time to work out its diff

1t an additional amount in order to
continue full operations"
Thomson's property included a
farm in Iowa and its aggregate cost
was in excess of one million dollars.

Il have no comment to offer on the
action of the Sangamon county grand

Fordney bill, Kitchin said, was 'nerv-
ing Democrats everywhere for an en-
thusiastic and united fight in 1922
and 1924 and giving them fresh hope
of coming victory" He asked that
the strongest possible appeal be
made to every Democrat not to mar
the excellent record made thus far by
voting for Republican protection of
hides, cotton, oil, asphalt or other pro
ducts"
The house action on leather shoes
did not hold, however, with respect
to shoes the upperS of which are made
from cloth, felt or kindred substances,
on which duty of % per cent was
placed. The vote on the paragraph
was close but it will stand in the bill
since separate vote in the house
proper is not permitted under the
duty. A duty of cents a pound, an
increase of l cent was placed on cot
fee, acorns and chicory. Certain kinds
of cedar logs were reduced from Is
per cent to 10 per cent, ana the YAK
on PHOSPHORUS was lowered from Is
cents to 10 cents a pound.
OF the increases, perhaps the great
est was on citrate of lime, a by-pro-
duct of lemons, which was r.rsed
from 21a cents to cents a pound.
An amendment aso was adopted
substituting the Payne-Aldrich law
provision with respect to drawbacks
or rebates of duties on commodities
imported and manufactured and again
exported.
One entirely new paragraph. was in
cluded in the chemical schedule put
ting a duty of 10 cents a pound on
bromine, bromide and compounds of

Illinois Governor
Under Indictment
CONTINUED FROM PAGE oNE1


tration of Fred Z. Sterling those bal
ances have ranged from 500 200. 900
to 100000. During the administra-
tions of Len Small and Fred +. Sterl-
ing as treasurers, the law then in
force in this state required the state
treasurer to deposit all moneys re-
ceived by him on account of the state,
within five days after receiving same
in such banks in the cities of the
state as in the opinion of the treas
urer were secure and which paid the
highest rate of interest. We find
that both the letter and spirit of that
law were violated. For the purpose
of circumventing those provisions an
ingenious scheme was adhered to.
Beginning with the administration
of former Treasurer Small, the Ndaily
balances were carried on the books
under two primary funds, one denom-
mated as the vault fund and the 9TH
er as the safe fund The so-called
safe fund represented loans made to
the so-called Grant Park Bank which
was formerly private banking insti-
tuition which absolutely ceased to
function as a bank after 1908. AL
though this purported bank was pur-
ported to be owned by a single indiv-
idual and did not transact any bank
ing business whatever, and had no
depositor other than the state of IL
linois, yet it was given huge deposits
of pubic moneys.
Huge Sums involved
The evidence shows that money
was taken from the state treasury
generally in lots of 100000 and de-
posted in the so-called Grant Park
Bank which thereupon issued and de-
iTered to the state treasurer certlIi-
Gates OF deposit for the amount receiv
ed but without any collateral security.
In other words, the only evidence of
Indebtedness and the only security
held by the treasurer for loans aggre
gated $10,000,000, were paper obliga-
tions of fictitious bank. The money
sc received was used in purchasing
at a discount short time notes is
sued by Swift & Company and Ar
mour & Company, two large corpora
lions engaged in the packing business
in Chicago. These transactions net
ted the purchasers of the notes large
profits. If any portion of the profits
so realized was paid into the state
treasury, it was less than per cent.
The records of the treasurer's Of
flee for July 10, 1919, illustrate the
manner in which the public FUNDS
were handled On that day the vault
fund is debted with S7,977, 500, of
which 100000 was deposited in

Maybe He'll Suck an Egg
G. F. Clarkson.

Some years ago there lived in the
state of tDeleware a very liberal and
charitable, though very profane, far
mer by the name of Townsend. There
to be conference of min
listers at Townsend on the Delaware
railroad, and Mr.. Townsend suggested
to his wife and daughters that they
Crive over and invite all the ministers
to dinner, which they consented to do
on condition that Mr.. T. would not
swear durng the ministers presence.
Two carriages were pressed into
service, and after a long absence re-
turned with only one minister. Mr..
T. was just about to swear when re-
membering his promise he said:
"Why in the world didn't you bring
them all?"
His daughter explained that every
body wanted minister to dine with
them, and that, after pulling and
hauling, she finally succeeded, with
the aid Of the servant, in throwing
one minister into the carriage and
driving off before he could be rescued.
Mr.. T. said to his wife that he was
afraid one minister could not keep
him from swearing, "but," he added,
'chand him out to dinner; I will go
out in the yard. do a little swearing,
and be in directly"
Now, if there was any one thing
Mr.. T. prided himself on, it was get
ting up a good dinner. He first cary
ed the ducks, and passed to the cler-
gyman a piece of the breast, who de-
clined with the remark:
81 never eat roast duck"
Mr.. 7. was thunderstruck, but
kept composed as we'll as he could,
and passed a piece of turkey. The
same answer came back:
"Thank you, Mr.. Townsend, but
I never eat turkey"
Mr.. T. was just about to fire off
both barrels, when his wife looked at
him, which made him hold in (but it
was afterwards said that he swore
down his throat. He next passed a
le cut of roast ham, but again came
,, the answer:
excuse me, Mr.. Townsend, but
never eat pork in any form
This was tso much; great beads OF
perspiration rolled down his cheeks
and he was ready to burst with vol
lev of oaths, when his little six year
! old son came to his rescue:
"Papa. maybe the old gentleman
will suck an egg! Rover has no
teeth, but he can suck eggs!'

call him shallow hypocrite, but they
