Is Awarded $4,000.

Kansas State bank of Salina was in
Dictated in a report filed in the SUI
preme court today by C. L. Hunt com
missioner. of Concordia. He denied
responsibility of the fund to meet
claims aggregating $125,000 and ap-
proved only the claims of the Farm
Mortgage Trust company of Topeka
for $4,000.
Under Hunts report as to facts and
conclusions of law. he holds that the
guaranty fund cannot be drawn upon
to meet claims against a bank except
where there is a showing of a bona

of the state bank commissioner to i'm
pose any responsibility on the fund
other than that fixed by law.

The Hunt report. which was filed
today with D. A. Valentine, clerk of

lance to bankers and investors. 1t
also has a far reaching effect in de-
termining the responsibility of the
guaranty fund in payment of securi-
ties issued by a state bank operating
under the guaranty act. b
Hunt holds that the Topeka COM
pany actually placed money on deposit
in the defunct Kansas State bank and

MYSTERY IN auto ACCIDENT
Motor Car Goes Into Ditch at Twenty
Fourth and Virginia Streets.

Considerable mystery seems to be
attached to a motor car mixup which
occurred about 8 o'clock Sunday night
near Twenty-fourth and Virginia
streets. A motor car, said to belong
to Clarence Grice, a former court re-
porter. but driven by two negroes, is
reported as having crashed into two
other cars and then going into a ditch
at the side of the road. The car is
said to have been driven at a high
rate of speed and was badly damaged.
Deputy Sheriff Pendleton, who was
called to investigate, says the car was
abandoned by the two negroes by the
time he arrived on the scent. but he
found a revolver, a half quart of
corn whisky and several empty bot
ties in the machine. The negroes are
believed to have been drunk. which
propably accounts for their wild ride.
No arrests have been made.

REPUBLICAN ARMY
| ENTERS LONDON As
ESCORT T0DELECATES
Conference Adjourned Until
Monday; Sim Feiners Get
Chance to Visit Ireland.

London. Oct. 14-tBy The Associated
Pressl The adjournment Friday Of
the Irish conference until next Mon
day afternoon has no political signif-
icance. it was understood Friday night
The postponement of the sittings of the
conference which aims at solution of
the Irish question was attributed by
the Sim Fein delegates to the Eng
lishmen's passion for week-ending"
Some of the Irish delegates are TAX
ing advantage of the interval to visit
Ireland in order to deal with what is
described by the Sim Fein publicity
department as important departmental
business. They will return Sunday
night in ample time to attend the re-
sumed session.
Considerable currency was given
here Friday to a sensational report
of the ordering of uniforms for the
Irish republican army and the forma-
ton of Il company to come to London
to escort the Dali delegation back to
Ireland upon the conclusion of the con-
ference. The story. however, was rid
ieuled by Sim Fein leaders, who say
no uniforming of the army is going on
and that there is no question of any
detachment coming to London at any
time.
Since the truce there has been no in
reference by the military with the
Irish republican army, uniformed or
not, and it's existence has been offic-
tally recognized for truce purposes,
with the cooperation of liason officers
of the Irish republican army and the
British army.
