Another Lucky Olaimant. Considerable anxioty has been felt since the receipt of thenews from Lincoln concerning the action of Auditor Leidtks in the matter of in- surance fees recaived by himas in- surance commissioner, to learn the facts ix. the case, it not being believed that the rumors of defaleation; fraud, etc., had any foundation. 1t appears that s'me days ago it came to the knowlidge of Governor Nance state auditor had dep sited the fees in the bank as his owa fonde, aud had drawn against them for his own use, and he there- upn wrote him under date of July 28th requestitg him to report in writing and under cath to his oftice wit*out delay, the amount and kind of exch class of feos reccived as auditor of public accounts from January 9, 1879, up to the 1st day of July, 1 This demand wasmade under authority art. b of the constitution of the of ssc. the state. The Governoralso notified the State J nary 9. 1879, up to the 1st of July, 1880, and as far as possible classify the same. Auditor Liedtke replied that from Jauuary 9, 1879, to Juty 1s*, 1880, he had collected cftise fees a3 Auditor of Public Accounts amounting to $1,- 165 37, while the fees received dur- ing.the period named, on account of in- surance, amounted to §7,498. Tressurer Bartlatt responded with & statement showing the amount paid 11tothe state treasury on account of office fees from January 9, 1879, to August 1, 1830, by the follow ord from the auditar, July 15, 1 Receipt . 5 < rec- Total an $1,103 00 On the 29th the Goveraor again ad- dressed Mr. Licdtke in rozard to the abyve communicatins, according to 0 37 remained in thehands of the auditer,and said in conclusion: ¢ Tndouht-dly it was tha intention of of the legisluture that all fees ani per- quivites of cfiic, sinco the ad ption of theonsti-ution o~ 1875, should be paid mto the state tressu-y, and from my und ¥ tnli gof the law, I must fuist tiet each a couree should be taker by you, and that all feo whouid be into that puid 2 auditor writes atlength. Hs states that he hss performed the duties required by ths Con titu'im of 187 acya d paid his (ffico state treasury. He then follows up the train of reasoniug by which the supreme court iucrensed the salary of the secretary of state S500 a year, erel, and by which B. Weston, the predecessor of Auditor Leidtke, was allowed to draw a large amount of money from the state tressury after the expiration of his term of office covering his fees as land commissioner, and claims that the fees of his office as insurance com- ‘missioner are his perquisites, it being a separats office and no other pay being assigned him for it. Ta conclusion, ho says: quisites T carn from in. nies by examining their statemeuts, and looking after them consider well and fairly earned byme, and this business in no manner inter- fering with or appertsinivg to my proper, lawful duty as auditor of pablic accounts, according to the de- cisions of the supreme court, is also To ally mize. The legslature has appropriated nothing for clerk hire In the perform- snce of { exe duties, yresuming, 1 sippose, that the percuisites will pay for the necessary clerk hire, traveling expeases, etc., and I employ clerical hel > myself when I find it necessary.” The above correspondence was trausmitted by the governor to the attorney gencral with the request that ho take immediate action by proper lezal measares to compel the payment of said fees to the state treasurer. The Journal of Saturday says it “uspends judgmeat upon the Auditor's case until the mandamus, which will be asked forin thesu- preme court on Monday next by At- toraey General Dilworth, shall have been decided. The issue had not been made up til a late hour lact night, and the Gover- nor promptly gave the correspondence to the press yesterday, tof correct the ramors of *‘defalcation” and *“fraud” that has been put in circulation on the etrests for a day ortwo back. It will be seen that it is merely a question f.r tho cour's to decide, and depends vpon the Sta'e constitution as ivtarpreted by the legislature and the courts. Auditor Weston apparently over- locked the point when he went out of office, and did not lay claim to these fees. If the present auditor wins, Mr. West n will fa'l heir to a little sum of about £6000, the amount re- porred into the treasury by him on is acc.unt.” “Tho per- arance compa- generally, 1 Go to the Tivoli. 1 The property of the late Mechnnics and M nirg Smelting Co. will ke sold at auction, Thursday, Avg. 26th, at 7:30 p. m., at Durant Engine Hous Omaha.

Two Men Attack Wm. Ford in North Omaha to Rob Him, But Are Defeated and Leave Their Garments With the Victor. North Omaha is notoricus for the deeds of violence committed there and it eoems impostible for the pelice to check them. About the last place one would expect to be held up by highwaymen would be on the quiet streets of that lonesome part of town, but it isa mstter of fact that thoso bridges over the creek, of which there are several, are haunted continually by despersts men who do not scruple at angthing in levying a toll on night passengers. Many are fortunate enough to escape by ihe use of their legs but one does not always care to race home for his life, followed by midnight robbers and aseassins, the amus:ment palls on one after a time. So thought Mr. Wm. W. Ford, a carpenter in the employ of the government, at tha corral. Mr. Ford had a little experience a year or 80 ago with these fellows and Frid vight he turned the t bles and gavea lesson to the other side of the house. He lives up in Shinn's sddition and started home about 8 o'clock in the cvening. He was paid off Friday morning and it is possible that tact may have been known to his aesail- ants. When near the Pullman Lun- dry, between Twenty-first and Twen- ty-second streets he turned with the rond which then makes a sharp curvo totneleft and as ho steppedsround the corner he was suddenly seized by some one in front of him. He had his hands in his pockets and had hls penknife in the right hand closed,and when the sudden attack was made he c'inching the knife and et tho man have it right botween the eyes.
