mum of $201.88105 of state fumK This
amount Is mentioned In the last six counts
of thu Inhumation , which In all contains
fight counts. This amount Includes the In
tcrcvt on the original warrant of $1S0.1U1 71
at tlio late of 7 per cci't It Is the tola
that was paid the New York bank that pur
chased the warrant when It returned It fo
collection In the first two counts a-tlo
Is charged with the emboz/lemont of th
face of the warrant , $180.101 75 As ijtatm
In The lice jratcrday , the amount of thl ,
warrant vva appropriated bj the 1S95 le-glsla
lure to rolmbnr&o the sinking fund Daitlcj
1s accused of having sold this warrant , appro
prlated the proceeds and to have paid 1
later \ylth state money.
Lcsldc\s ) this \ariancc In the amounti
charged as embezzled the counts differ 1m
materially. In homo Hartley Is accused o
having committed the embezzlement In hi
capacity as state ticasuicr and In olheu
of having done 1,0 while In a position it
which ho was duly empo.\cred to collec
t > nd dlsbuiso mcncjK of the Elite. Somi-
of the counts also charge him with having
tuni'-d over the embezzled amount to som
"corporatcd body unKnown"
Wednesday afternoon The Hee gave an ex
clusive nceount of the filing of this Infoimu.
lion The paper was placed on file In police
court late Tucsdu ) afternoon by Attornej
General Smjth and considerable endeavoi
was maclo to Keep the action a seent. A
wnriant of airest was at once ibsued and
placed In the hands of Sheriff McOonali
for service.
Although telegrams were ai
once sent to Lincoln to locate the ex-state
ticastircr , the sheriff postponed his tilp to
the utato capital until Wednesday morning
PLEADS NOT GUILTY.
It was almost noon when Hartley In
thn custody of Deputy Sheriff Strjkcr and
his legal advisers and friends , appeared In

formation was waived and Hartley pleaded
not rnllty to the
charge Ho at once
wahcd preliminary examination and Judge
Gordon bound him over to the Mnj term
of tlio district court of this county Mo'o
than half an hour was then wpent In argulne
the amotnt of the bond.
Attorney General Smvtb stated that while
It waa tine- tint the offense before tlio court
was charged In the Lancaster county case ,
Hartley would bo tried for It In this countv
because It was committed here . He would
bo tried for the rcmaindci of the alleged
cirbez/zlement In the Lancaster county
courts. The attorney general said also that
In Iho Lancaster count > case ho had In-
Klfcled on a J100.000 bond , but Hirlley was
rcrmhcd to furlsh one for only $50000 In
view of this nnd the lingo amount of the al
leged embezzlement ho maintained that the
bond should bo a largp one , $100 000 , nml
that It should be hlgned only by such men
no justified nnd upon examination were found
to ho really \\orth as much as th y set out
In the justification.
R. M , Ilmllctt maintained that only a
nominal bond was requited , ono for $5 000 or
$10,000. Ho took this stand Inlow of the
fact that Hartley was nil cad ) under bonds
of $50,000 In Lincaetor county for the em-
lie/zlement of $150,000 and that In this sum
was Included the $ COOOOU hu wan charged

Chairman Munro ot the Doard of Public
WoiKs Is having his last dajs of official Ufa
embittered by the chorus of protests from
property owrcrs on account ot the numerous
sldewall.fl that have recently been ordered by
the board.
During the last two jears an unusual
amount of libcrtv has been given In icgard
to sidewalk ? , with the result that a radical
refoim Is now Imperative It the walks are
to bo In decent condition during the expctil-
tlon. The bulk ot the property owneis nre
putting In walks ot their own accord , but
mnn > others not only rcfuso to build them
themselves , but are righteously Indignant
because the board has condemned tlieh di
lapidated walks and ordered them to build
new ones Munro has to bear the brunt of
the dissatisfaction , ami It Keeps him busy
most of thr > time Then there has been a
long contest on account ot the walks on Park
avenue A number of the property onnein
vant to build brick walks , while others want
them to be cutiicly ot stone In order to
have them all alike. The property ownoio
who are going to put In stone want the
others to bo compelled to use stone also , and
the two factions have been at war for sev-
eial weeks By virtue of much log rolling ,
nearly all tlio piopcrty owners have been
Induced to UEC stone , and the prospects are
favoiable for ptone walks for ncarlv the entire -
tire length of the stieet.

We will sell this season Men's Undershirts and
Drawers , made from pure Angola Yarn , in either nat
ural or silver gray effects. A man who is in the under
wear business will know the full significance of that
sentence , but the man who just buys his underwear
whenever he happens to think of it may not. To
make the value as apparent as possible in print we will
say that we sold the same grades last season for
35 cents and were then much lower than the
usual market price. The shirts are full fashioned ,
which means that they are cut full size , and
full finished , which means that there arc no raw edges
and they are made with the Full French yoke , which
means that they will adjust themselves to various
shaped necks. The Drawers arc also full fashioned
and full finished and have Jersey Ribbed cuds. These
are the starting points of our Underwear values this
Spring , and from that price up to 750 a garment wo
will save you anywhere from 30 cents to 75 cents on
your suit. Will that suit ?
