Kremer, the alleged defaulting treasurer of Itasca county, much litigation may result before the taxpayers of that district are able to realize on the securities found in his possession, which itis hoved will protect the county from any loss says the St. Paul Dispatch. During his first term of office, Kremer was bonded by the Metro- politan Surety company, now defunct, for’ $75,000. Two years later the bond was supplemented by one for $100,000 given by the National Surety company. Now it has been discovered that much of the reported shortage occur- red during Kremer’s first term of office, and the last named - surety company has'given it out that it will only be bound by losses covered by its bond. To .make matters worse, Kremer'so manipulated his stealings, it is charged, that it is impossible in a number of ‘cases to tell when the | oney was taken. As a precautionary measure Attor- ney General G. T. Simpson has in- structed the county officials to retain |all securities found, and they are now under lock and key. That the bonding company will demand them, however, is expected. M. F. Kain, of the public exam. iner’s office, who has been in charge of the investigation, says that when he left Grand Rapids yesterday a loss to the county of $27,000 had been located, which was covered by securities aggregating $37,000, He does not expect the shortage will be more than $50,000, though Attorney General G. T. Simpson says he has information which will bring it in excess of that amount. Kremer, it is said, took as much as $3,700 at a time. Funeral Tomorrow. The body of the late Erick Nel- son, who died on Tuesday, will be buried in . Greenwood cemetery to- morrow afternoon.

OFFICIAL NOTE ISSUED 8tateraent Conceraing Government's Intentions Called Forth by Demands in Sensational Newspapers for Im mediate Annexation of the Hermit Empire—Imperial Ordinance Direct: State Funeral for Dead Statesman. ‘Tokio, Oct. 28.--Japan's policy to ward Korea will remain unchanged by the assassination of Prince Ito, who as resident general of Korea worked out the plan for that kingdom’s refor- mation. This much was made known in a statement issued by the foreign office. The statement was called ou by editorials in sensational papers demanding the immnedlate annexation of Korea to Japan. The forelgn office silenced this clamor and formally declares that though the death of Prince Ito through the act of a Korean was the greatest loss which the empire could sustain the attitude of Japan toward Korea remains the same as that inau- gurated and desired by the dead statesman. There is no reason to believe that the death of Prince Ito will have’the sligntest effect upon Japanese policles at home or abroad. On tLe contrary his known wishes will be followed probably more closely now that he is dead than when he was alive. The death of the prince has been officialy announced by the government and it is also statad that the warship hearing the body would arrive at Yo kosuka Nov. 2. The body will then be removed immediately to the prince’s late residence in Tokio. An imperial ordinance directs that a state funcral, such as with three ex- ceptions has never bean given for other than a prince of the blood, be held Nov. 4. As a pesthumous honor Prince Ito is advanced from junior to the first grade in the court rank.

New York, Oct. 28.—Tales of cruelty incredible in these days of civilization were toll at the hearing before a corrmission to inquire Into the Brook: lyn disciplinary training school and its management. A writer of fiction ‘would have had to rank with Charles Dickens had he attempted to draw a pen plcturz of what was told by wit- nesses on the stand and he would never have been believed. The worst testimony that came out was the telling of an vnusual form o. punishment known as the “Star Span- gled Banner.” which meant a thrash- iug with a club, cach stroke to repre- sent a star or a stripe in the nation’s flag. Thrashings where boys were beaten into insensibility were told and con- siderable testimony was given of the intemperatz habits of the superintend- GUESTS ROUTED OUT IN SCANTY ATTIRE Men and Women In Full Dress Assist Fire Refugees.

Many men and women in evening dress proffered aid to women guests of the hotel, whose attire consisted chiefly of blankets hastily caught up when the alarm was given. More than a hundred guests were driven from their rooms by the smoke, The fire, however, was chiefly con- fined to th2 adjoining building at 168 Clark street. Few of the hotel guests took time to dress. Most of them ran down stairs barefooted and with only their night clothing. A. M. Roberts, the propriotor, threw blankets to them as they huddled together at the hotel en- trance. Wrapped in these coverings 1nsuy women stood for haif an hour in the street until the danger was past. Demented Homasteader Captured by Authorities.
