When Edwards’ report was made to the state examiner's office, Secretary of State Hall was advised of the ap- i parent shortage in the’ registration de- i partment. Mr. Hall replied that he would not be in a position to investi- gate the matter until Walla, who at that time was hunting, had returned. Wall# returned Monday. In the mean- time someone about the capitol had “leaked;” a report reached the trea- ; surer’s office, and State Treasurer John Steen called on the attorney gen- jeral for an explanation.

Mon- day evening the safe was opened in the presence of Assistant Attorney Gen Dan V. Brennan and others, and found to contain about $100 ine s and some $59 in currency. Walla at the same time produced from a drawer in his desk $2,600, which he erted belonged with the automobile ration funds, but the state ex- regi aminer declined to accept it, and a shortage of about that amount was noted. Claim Fund Was Raised. No denial is made by those inter- ested in the prosecution of thi: in the courts that the money was the office when the safe was opened and the records and moneys therein were seized. But it is having been in the safe but, in cur- rency, in Walla’s desk, is proof of irregularity. The prosecution also claims to have evidence that the money was borrowed within the last | few days and that it was not on hand when the alleged shortage was dis- covered. Misdemeanor at Most. Some years ago funds derived from the sale of automobile licenses were deposited in log] banks and an ac- counting was made monthly.

Many, No. 12 Water St., Ossining, N. Y., writes: “I had catarrh for ten years, and tried a great many kinds of medicines, which cost me a lot of money, but did me no good. Instead of getting better, I seemed to get worse. My eyes were bloodshot, my nose smelled so bad that 1 was ashamed to go in com- pany. I was night guard at the prison, and I would get so dizzy that 1 would have to catch hold of some- thing to keep from falling. I read about Peruna in the New York World, and thought I would give it a trial. J used about ten bottles, and | am cured of catarrh, and the dizzy feeling has left me and J am not bothered with it any more. I keep Peruna in the house, and when I feel a cold coming on I take a little bit of it and it does me good.” Used Ten a ii Bottles. Am Cured of Catarrh.

The affair, although some of the de- tails have been matters of more or less general knowledge for a week at the state house, caused somewhat of a sensation this morning, as the ar- rest of Hall and Walla had not been anticipated.
