Inclined to Investigate Farther. F. R. Beemani local manager of the Equitable Home association, was much perturbed yesterday by the disclosures made in the newspapers and was an early caller at the office of County Attorney Klllpack. Mr. Beeman said he regretted very much that the party who had called the attention of the county attorney to the company was dissatisfied with her In vestment and he was perfectly willing to take up her contract and refund whatever money she had paid in. "We are perfectly willing to settle with Mrs. Severine, if she is not satisfied." said Mr. Beeman, "and lake up her contract." "Well, It Is not unlikely that you will be called upon to also settle with the state of Iowa," was the significant reply of the county attorney. Mr. Beeman asked for the return of Mrs. Beverlne's contract, but this Mr. Killpack declined to surrender, ss he told Mr. Beaman he ' "wanted to look over It a little more carefully and might need It lat?r.'! Later In fhe day the solicitor for the company who Induced Mrs. Severine to invest, and another officer of the concern, called upon Mr. Klllpack with an offer to refund Mrs. Feverlite her money and take hack the contract. Mr. Klllpack, however, refused to surrender the contract and In timated that he Intended laying the mat ter before the grand Jury which will meet Tuesday Mrs. Severine, who was induced to Invest her money with the association, received a contract, the number of which Is 1,084. When she commenced to figure out the conditions under which she would eventu ally. If ever, secure her home from the company, she came to the conclusion she would have to wait until 1,083 other con tract holders had been first supplied. Look ing at the matter from this standpoint, Mrs. Severine came to the conclusion that she would be a very old woman before her time came to be numbered among one of the elect to secure a borne from the as sociation.

MERRIAM GETS THE PAPERS IN HIS CASE Hearst Forces Rejoicing; Over Success In Coanttee Which Have Held Con venttons Vp to Present , Time. (From a Btsff Correspondent.) DE8 MOINES. March 20. (Special.) The approptlations committees of the senate and house have been ot work hard on the appropriations for the state Institutions and will soon complete the budget. The plan Is to keep the appropriations for extraordinary purposes down to $1,800,000 for the biennial period, though they may reach $1,000,00 a year, despite the efforts of the economists. By keeping the ap propriations down to the smaller sum the state will not have to levy more than S mills on the dollar for state , taxes and this will be about the average for many years. The heaviest draft will be for the Institutions under the Board of Control, which will require upwards of $026,000. The matter of appropriations for the educa tional Institutions Is still much muddled, but there will be a straightening out In a few days when the omnibus hills will be presented and promptly passed. For One Board. The committee on visitation of the State normal school at Cedar Falls today filed with the legislature a supplemental re port on the subject of a Board of Regents for the state educational Institutions.
