 by the agents on Monday afternoon and today. The accused nan still in-
 sists the story as told by him to As sistant United States Attorney

But Does Not See How Gilpatric
 Mystery Can Be Solved Now
WANTS ONLY STATE BONDS
But Even If Proved That State
 State Has Bank Securities, These Cannot Be Returned Except by Due Process of Law, He Explains.

Trumbull, with reference to the disclosures which had been made indicating that the former state treasurer, G. Harold Gipatric, had used state bonds for his own pur- poses, and the possibility of con tinuation of the probe into the con trol of the state treasury.
 Wants All Cleared Up
 The governor declared he per sonalIy would like to see the whole thing cleared up, but at this time there Is a question of how it can be done. He recalled the opinion of the attorney general that the state cannot be sued without its permission which can be obtained only from the general assembly ant said that his course of action O necessity must be guided by the advice of the attorney general.
 If the state of Connecticut ha in it's possession any securities t' ! which it is not entitled, l woull not want to have them retained il l the state treasury" said the gover nor 50 far there has been n demand made on us for any bonds and even if such demand were mad today they could not be delivere except through law.
 Just how this may be brough about does not appear at hhi time"
 Investigation Suggested A suggestion was made to tn governor that an investigation migh be made with the approval of tn court, which would be in the natur of a hearing with testimony bein taken by competent authority an this hearing might disclose whethe state bonds were purchased wit money stolen by Gilpatric from out side sources, The governor agree this might be way in which tn investigation might be continue but in this as in other matters Il would have to be guided by tn opinion of the attorney general.
 The governor said that addition; information might be given tn state which would definitely 1T iuence the state officials in tr matter.
 He had no opinion as 10 what th information might be. but it migl possibly come 10 him as q result ( the investigation still in progress the affairs of the Putnam bank,
