LINCOLN. Nov. 8. (Special.) The two
members of the state board of control
who visited the Kearney hospital for
tubercular patients have returned and
this morning George Weldenfleld, bok
keeper for the board, went to Kearney
to check up the books of the institution,
which, to use an expression of the board,
have been kept In a very "childish"
manner.
The board Is of the opinion that the
superintendent, K. R. Vander Slice, has
not wilfully been dishonest, but has ap
propriated the funds from one source
In order to apply them in another where
the deficiency was needed.
Cheeks On Account
It appears that the superintendent was
lit the habit of taking warrants made
out to employes and signing their names
to them with his own underneath and
depositing them In the bank, where he
had his own private account lie then
drew checks for a smaller amount for
the payment of the employe. He gives
as his reason for doing so that the board
of control only allowed a stated sum
for the payment of employes. He needed
additional help and so he took the dif
ference between what the warrant was
made out for and the amount the em
ploye received and applied It In employ
lug more help.
To Keep Ills Farmer
la one Instance, that of the institution
farmer, the board cut the pay of that'
Individual from $45 a month to HO to
correspond to the salary received by
farmers of other institutions of the state.
Van Slice was afraid that he would lose
his farmer and so he cut the warrant
of another employe five dollars and ap
pted It on the salary of the farmer. In
other Instances he hired help, applying
the same methods In order to get the
neegsary funds. The whole transactions
would amount to about $36 a month and
' will probably run about three months.
Hall Starts New Plan
State Treasurer George Hall, will in
the future lay down a new rule which
will make a like arrangement Impossible
upless the employe enters into the ar
rangement. He will require that every
person receiving money from the state
shall make out a voucher. In the past
it has been the custom for the pay roll
of the Institutions to be sent to Lincoln
and the warrants are drawn to each in'
dividual separately.

Ex-Mayor Miles
Is Still Undecided
Whether to File
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Nov. 2. -(Special.) C. J.
Miles of Hastings, former mayor of that
rlty and president of the Nebraska State
Baseball league, called at the office of
the secretary of stato today and applied
for filing blanks In order that he may
have his name placed upon the primary
ballot as a candidate for the republican
nomlnntlon for governor If ho decides
to make the race.
Mr. Miles Is not certain yet that he
desires to file. "When 1 do," said he.
"I slinll do so because I feel that It I t
n laudable ambition for any man to want
to serve his state as its chief executive i
officer I believe I have many friends
who would be glad to sign a petition ask- j

bounds of political propriety If I file
my personal application Instead of a
petition.
The death of Mrs. Miles, six weeks ago
today, has been a hard blow to the
iormer mayor; their plans for the future, j

LINCOLN, Nov. 22. (Special. )-Thn last
foot ball game of tho season lias been
played In IJiu-olu, the Steelier-lliissane
wrestling match will come off Thanks
giving afternoon, and after that very
little of an exciting nature will be left
to draw the attention of the people and
amuse them, so Secretary of State Pool
Is preparing to pull off a curtain-raiser
for the political game which ought to
draw like a porous plaster.
On January 8. YM wa fl'ed In the
office of the secretary of state a ctltlon
by John O. Yclser of Omaha and others
asking that tho name of Theodore Roose
rvelt be placed upon the primary ballot
for the republican nomination for the
presidency.
On January 9, three dnya later, that
valiant statesman and hero of many a
political battlefield. Senator Crawford
Kennedy, filed a protest against the
placing of the name of the aforesaid
Roosevelt upon the primary ballot, giv
ing as his reasons for his protest that
tho laws of Nebraska provided no method
for filing a candidate three years before
the primary and also that Mr. Roosevelt
had left the republican party itt his own
free will and accord and was not, there
fore, a republican any more and there
fore could not be entitled to a place as
Its nominee.
Two days later Mr. Yclser replied to
tho protest of Senator Kennedy and
denied the allegations set forth In the
senator's protest and defied the alienator.
Now, as the time draws near when the
matter should be settled. Secretary of
State Pool announces that he will In the
near future act a date when both Colonel
Yelser and Senator Kennedy will be privi
leged to meet and show cause why they
should not both be shot at sunrlso If they
do not make good in the rlalivu made by
them In their petition and protest.

Officers Say Ship
Zelandia Searched
Inside 3-Mile Limit
WASHINGTON. Nov. 22.-Offleers of
tho battleship Kentucky at Progreso,
Mcx., have reported that the American
steamer Zcalandla was one-quarter of a
mile Inside tho three-mile limit when re
cently forcibly searched by a boarding
party from a British cruiser, and there
fore was In a neutral port.
They agree with the British report,
however, that no papers were aboard the
ship to show Its nationality, but were In
the American consulate ashore. The
British officers contend also that the
vessel was a quarter of a mile outside
the three-mile limit and therefore on the
high seas.
The carranta government already has
protested to Great Britain against the
alleged violation of Mexican neutrality,
and the subject probably will become a
matter of diplomatic action betreen Great
