things:

for commission IL repositories and
other expenses.
Corporations supposed to he liqui-
dated were permitted Ia continue for

Annual reports did not list the en-

The great bulk of the property, how
ever, was fully accounted for. The
report Is quoted as saying:
''lt appears that any extensive mis-
use of trust funds or any serious mis-
management of trust property has
been connected with a comparatively
limited number of cases or classes of
cases.
The report. the World says, then
proceeds to take up several hundred
such cases.
The American Metal and the Chemi-
cal Foundation cases are referred to
briefly, but the Bosch Magnetic case
is discussed in some detail.
The investigation, according to the
World, took one year and cost ap-
proximately $500, 600.
The controller points out. the
World says. that more time must be
taken to learn all about some of the
trusts and that the exact facts about
others may never be known.

At the time Of his arrest and sub
sequent plea he declared he had been
employed by AInchew to commit the
Kidnapping that Minchew had paid
his way from Dallas to Denver and
that he was to pay him for the kid
naping
The pardon was the outgrowth of
a row which had it's origin with the
serving of an order by Judge Bray
on lyman earlier in the week order
ing the return Of OGrady to Dallas.
lyman refused to obey the order and
then Governor Morley, by executive
order, commanded his return to Dali
las. lyman also ignored this order
and then he was ordered by the gov
ernor to produce the man in the gov
tions arising under the state law
make the warden of the prison re-
sponsible for the keeping of men in
his charge.
The law makes no provision for the
governor to order the removal of any
convict from the state without use of
the pardoning power. In accepting
the pardon, O'Grady also agreed to
return to Denver for sentence after
he has testified against Minchew
without fighting extradition, The gov
ernor, in announcing the pardon this
afternoon, further declared O'Grady
had entered his guilty plea to fore
stall any attempt that might be made
by Texas officers to hold O'Grady in
connection with the charge which
5ATipcl1aXU will he forced fo face
1t was agreed by the governor,
O'Grady and Judge Bray, that the
term OGrady already has spent in
the state prison will be deducted from
the sentence which he will receive on
his return to Denver from Dallas.
Immediately after the pardon was
granted, O'Grady, in company with
Denver detectives, left for Dallas.
