SMALL ORDERED
TO ACCOUNT FOR
ALL STATE FUNDS
Circuit Judge Also Orders
Other Illinois Officials to
Make Report.

SPRINGFIELD. III, Dec. Is. -
(By L. P)-GOv. Len Small. state
Auditor Andrew Russell and Lieut.
GOV. Fred Z. Sterling, must answer
the bills filed by Att'y-Gen. Edward
J. Brundage. for accounting OF state
funds during their terms as state
treasurers. Circuit Judge Norman L.
Jones ruled today.
Judge Jones sustained a special
demurrer as TO the legislative act OF
1908, but overruled the general de-
murrer 10 the bills and the de-
PENDANTS must either answer before
the master IN Chancery or elect TO
stand by their general demurrer and
appeal to the Supreme court.
In a lengthy opinion the court held
the act Of 1903 unconstitutional
Under this act the legislature made
Il the duty OF the state treasurer to
deposit all money received by him
within five days of It's receipt in such
banks OF the state as he felt were
secure and which offered the highest
rate Of interest.
The court held the legislature has
no power 10 compel a state treasurer
10 put the public funds at profitable
employment or TO impose upon him
any hazard whatsoever. He is a con-
stitutional officer the opinion said.
"ard the legislature cannot deprive
or strip him OF his stewardship.
However" the opinion continues.
there are various claims for relief
presented In the bill, which are not
predicated upon the provisions OF the
act OF 1905.
Well Established.
The law is so we'll established that
il needs do discussion TO demon
strate that a treasurer who employs
the public funds and thereby re-
allies a profit thereon, must account
10 the state. not only for the funds
themselves, but for the profits as
well.
THE bill expressly charges that
the public funds in the hands of the
defendant Small had earned through
interest on bank deposits and
through tho manipulations OF Small
and Edward c., and Vernon s. Cur
It's, large sums OF money in excess
Of the amount accounted for ami
turned over to the state by the de-
PENDANT Small. II makes no differ
ence whether the interest was earned
on deposits in banks made in pur-
suance OF the act OF 1908, or not.
While the defendant Small could not
have been compelled TO make such
deposits in the banks against his
VIII, still, If he did IN fact make
them and receive interest thereon he
is accountable to the state for such
interest. So also. If he makes use
OF a real bank or a fictitious one
for the purpose Of making a profit
on the state funds for himself, and
his alleged confederates, he Is ac-
countable to the state for all the
profits received either ny himself or
his said associates The bill IN such
particulars Is sufficient 10 require
an answer. Therefore, the general
demurrers Will be overruled."

"Is this your first trip " the sea
hound asked Mr.. Howe on the occa-

admitted that it was. WELL" said
the sea hound, 'T've crossed the Allan

Mr.. Howe and again vouchsafed the
same observation. He repeated 1t at
frequent intervals during the trip.
1t was on the sixth day, after the
