A hasty ex animation was maue yesterday by a joint cemmittee of the legislature of the books and accounts of Colonel Heming way, ex -treasurer of the state. Accord ing tot he statement made by the com mittee and the expert accountants em ployed the state owes Colonel Heming way a little over 92,000, and thus the matter stands until a thorough investi gation of the treasurer's aud auditor's books can be made by a commission heretofore appointed for that purpose. Although the examination made yester day is not final, yet it is confidently be lieved Colonel Hemingway will be fully exonerated when the official examination is completed. The legislative committees report states that the books are so mixed that nothing can be told from them and rec ommends a commission of inquiry. The report of two experts says that there may be a $100,000 deficit or the state may owe Hemingway about 1200, according to how certain items are interpreted. Five PerMMM Severely Rnrned.
