TREASURER IS IN TROUBLE ( 'nntodlaii of Stntc'N KiinilN Ilctvrecn MonlilNto anil ( lie Deep Sea mill - IN I DKS MOINES , Fol ) . 3. ( Special Tele- mom. ) State Treasurer Hcrrlott is In trou ble and it Is no fault of his own. It lu merely because ho carried out the law In collecting the state tax levied on insurance , telegraph , telephone and express companies. He Is still collecting these taxes , which are lining paid under protest. It he did not col lect them ho would bo guilt of malfeasance In ofllco and might bo deposed and his bondamoji made to pay for his neglect of duty. If ho does collect them ho must turn the money Into the state treasury and be come liable personally to tbo companies .which the state supreme court and the- United Stules supreme court have held can recover from Treasurer Hcrrlott personally. The amount so far Involved Is said to bei about $150,000. Herrlott made Ms troubles krnwn Saturday to the members of the sen ate and house- ways and means committee. Tlicru was some talk about the dlfllcult po st ! Ion of Herrlott before , but the exact status of the situation has not belorc been ir.ndo public. , It Is the opinion of Treasurer Herrlott and of the chairman of tbo ways and moans committee that the only escape for the state treasurer is the passage of n refunding law by the legislature. Several states have such actn. but Iowa has not. The result Is that the state treasurer Is placed in a most embarrassing position. If he does not col- lost the taxes the state will demand restitu tion ; If ho docs the companies will hold him personally liable for the $100,000 or so each , year.
