Ibcre Are Items Ainonniing to More
Than a Million Dollars Unac
counted For.
NUMEROUS IRREGULARITIES.
Check. Were Issued and Paid, hut No
Statement a. to What They Were
For — Oreenhnt'e Peculiar
Method, of Bookkeeping.
Chicago, April 16.—Of the many sen
sations furnished by the 'Whisky Trust
since Joseph B. Greenhut first had him
self appointed receiver and was outed
by the stockholders, none approaches
In magnitude that furnished by the
filing with Judge Showalter In' the
United States consult court this after
noon of the balance sheet of the com
pany as It appeared March 31, 1803.
Practically, the whole period of the
alleged Iniquitous reign of the Green-
hut faction Is covered by the figures
given therein, which are startling even
to those who have been told in advance
that disclosures of an usual nature
were to be made. The sum of 31,133,-
113 is totally unaccounted for, to say
nothing of the other Items which ap
pear all right at first glance, and which
are off-set by figures on the books.
The first Irregular ltm occurs In the
purchase of the Shufeldt and Calumet
distilleries. The net cost of. these dis-
tllerles, after charging Inventory to
capital In operating plants. Is put down
at 31,634,279. The amount derived from
the sale of 34,984 shares of treasury
stock (these are the shares which the
company soia itself) is i -iUi deducted,
leaving in round numbers 360,000. A
note by experts in regard to this pur
chase charges that. 3244.443 are unac
counted for on the books.
Another note lu the same connection
is as follows:
"To meet cash payments required by
contracts for purchase of Calumet dis
tillery the following two deposits were
made in Chicago: Deposit of 3100,000
in Fiftt National bank, Chicago, and
deposit of 3150,000 in Chicago National
bank. No vouchers or checks showing
to whom paid."
in the opinion of those who are in
a position to know, while no open
charge can be made on this last Item,
it shows a method of boodkeeping, If
nothing more, that is, to say the least,
exceedingly Irregular. ,
Coming to the purchase of the Star,
Crescent, Central and Nebraska Dis
tilleries, the report of the experts says:
“We find no voucher or other evi
dence of the expenditure of six drafts
on J. B Greehut Issued between No
vember 15, 30, 1892, and paid through
the German-Amerlcan National bank
of Peoria, supposed to be drawn for
such payments on account of these dis
tilleries.” ‘ ,
Five matured notes of Samuel Wool,
nor in favor of the Sar and Crescent
and the Central and Nebraska distil
leries, all paid by exchange through
the German-Amerlcan National bank,
amounted to 3185.000, and 3200.000 was
paid to Samuel Woolner, to which there
Is no vouener and to which the experts
have fixed the notes: "Explanation
required.” . j
The total deductions from the cost
of the purchase of the distilleries are
put down at 3185,000, which Is the sec
ond discrepancy shown in the report.
The third discrepancy comes under the
head of "Items to be accounted Tor.
The sum Of these Is 3510,134. These
Items of this sum appear a payments
to Greenhut and Woolner or payments
to other In Greehut’s check. This
this money Is put down as loss
chrged against Investment accounts In
the reports of the experts, npd note
stntes the amount was written off after
the books were closed for the fiscal
year, 1893, and that no details or ex
planation was given.
"The company's books are under tne
charge of tile treasurer, who Is also
one of the directors. They contain fig
ures only which have been entered by
the bookkeeper without any Informa
tion as to their meaning, except what
the treasurer chose to give hint or what
he may have Inferred from the circum
stances. The treasurer understood the
books, but no one else, except, possi
bly, the directors; hence It has been
nnd Is an Impossibility to properly
audit the expendtlures, which run Into
millions, from the books into our pos
session. Some idea of the total lack
of information In the books Is given by
the notes attached In this report to
some of the Items.”

mea.lng on ilie terms of the treaty of
peace alleged to have been signed by
the Japanese and Chinese plenipoten
tiaries in Shimonog.-kl yesterday, gays
provisions two, throe, four anil six. re.
spcotlvely, allowing Japan to retain
the conquered places; to retain terri
tory east of ithc U.io ever: ceding For
mosa permanently to Japan, and mak
ing an offensive and defensive alliance
between J'a.pan aDd Chinn, are simply
Impossible.
Europe, ithe Globe declare!, will not
assent to any condition which places
China's Intent resource! under Japan
ese control, no matter whether m -war
or in commerce.
A dispatch to the Globe from Yoko
hama says the peace conference s.it five

A CABLDGiRAiU FROM FOSTER.
Washington, April 10.—The reported
signing of toe traa'y of peace between
Oh mi and Japan has been confirmed
by a cablegram rce-ived this morning
from Hon. John W, Foster, adviser of
the Chinese plenipotentiary.
It is dated Shlananosek:, April 15,
and says: "Ever.vti.ag seCtlrvl satis
factorily. Treaty s'gned today.” No
particulars -are given.
The cablegram IS a private one, but
it Is assumed that the details published
this morning are correct. Faster will
probably remain In .Lipin n sluort time,
until all the details are soiled, and
then he may accompiuy Ll Hurig
Ghang to Pekin.
It is believed at the stale department
thui: the terms of pi-ice agreed upon be
tween China and Tap.tn, os reported
from Loudon, are substantially correct.
From information hirO'ofori* received
at the dupartniart, otfioials understand
that the cotntitons indue) the inde
pendence of Korea, p-riiiatwot cession
of Formosa, and offensive and defen
sive alliance between China -rail Japan.
This last condition was expected to be
in the form of a aeor. t protocol.
The -t-wo other conditions, viz.. Ja
pan's retention of 'he conquered places
and of territory east of the Li ad river,
may be oorrexlt. Th** fifth condition,
fixing the indemnity at $100,000,000, is
deleved (to be inoor'ect, unless It re
fers to a gold payment.
Late -this afternom Secretary Gres
ham received a cablegram from Minis
ter Dun ait Tokio, Ji-pan, confirming
the press dispatches limit: a peace -treaty
had been signed by Japan and China.
The- message was terse, and simply
started that “peace uegotia-tlons be
tween Japan and China were conclud
ed today.”
TERMS NOT PUBLISHED.
Loudon, April 16.—A dispatch from To
kio to tlhe Central News, dated 17th, says
that -the treaty of peace between China
and Japan was signed this morning. The

says, will probaibty not be divulged until

RUSSIA MAY INTERFERE.
London, April 16.—A dispatch from St.
Petersburg to the Poult-lsehe Correspon
dent of Vienna fays:
"Russia is firmly resolved not to allow
tha muMon hv China to Japan of anv ter
ritory on the eastern Asiatic continent,
and wtM not shrink from entering Into a
serious Conflict with Japan if her wishes
cannot otherwise be attained. France Is
resolved to support Russia in this posi
tion. Reports from England show that
that dountry is lending support to Japan.”
The Standard's Vienna correspondent
says the writer of the dispatch from St.
Petersburg in the Potlttsche Oorreepon-
dsns never writes without Inspiration
from the foreign office and he Is fre
quently used by that department for
feelers.
A DEFIANCE OF -EUROPE.
London, April 16.—A dispatch from
Tokio to the Central News tvtys the
Chinese war indemnity will be paid In
teele. The Chroolclo tomorrow will say
that such terms a* has be -n announced
as the conditions of peace between
China and Japan would be a defiance
of Europe and a danger of the world.”
The Time* will print tomorrow the
following dispatch from Pekin:
"Word has reached here that he de
cision on the peace settlement was left
to Ll Hung Chang. The views r-f the
court on the matter were only a gen
eral character and did not hampor the
viceroy. .
"Opposition from the censors will
appear when Ll Hung Chang returns.”

DURANT IN THE NINE HOLE.
The Evidence Against Him ns a Mur
derer is Very Strong.
San Franciso, April 16.—Geo-nge R,
King, organist of the church where the
two women were found murdered, made
a statement to Chiof of Police Crowley
la-to this ntftemoan, which tends to tlx
one crime at least—the murder of Mis*
Lamont—upon Duraui.
King suys -that on April 3d, the day
Miss Lament wo* missed, he went into
the church about 5 p. m. to practice on
the organ, he saiw Durant there.
"-Much to my surprise," sahl King,
“he came down from the organ loft In
a highly exettod and overheated condi
tion. 1 asked him what -was the toUItter
ahd he said, '1 was overcome by gas up
thi-ro In the loft.'
“HO was very weak and pale and
asked me to give him a glass of bromo-
seltzer.
I know he was fixing up some elec
trical contrivance about the church,
and thought nothln-g strange about Ills
going up la the loft.”
The coroner's inquiry into the death
of Mamie Williams, of -whose murder
Ttwvxlore Durant ls aiccuaed, wa* com
menced at 10 o'clock tlhls morning. Du
rant was present having been brought
dow-ln from his cell under strong guard.
He showed the effects of the groat men
tal strain -which he has been under but
manTfe-Biud complete Indifference to the
proceedings. The streets In the vicinity
were thronged with people.
Geunra W. Fvfsytbc, kistnnd of
-Mrs. Ella Forsythe, the missing woman
whom Durant 1» suspected of Tnaklng
away with, positively denies that she
ever visited Emanuel church or knew
anybody conneoted with it. He be

INCOME TAX RETURNS.
Rules to Be Observed by Collectors In
Enforcing the Law.
Washington April 16.—Commissioner
Miller touny issued the following clr-
oular to Internal revenue collectors In
which he says;
“In cases ttf incorrect Income tax re
turns in your office you will notify
the per*'no who filed such returns that
they must apiie-.ir within a reuuonci-ble
Ume, "(ui.lfj'lng the da-tu oiul place for
appearance, and correct or explain such
returns and (hat on their failure to
appear a.nd make such corrections you
« correct and increase the amount of
such return*, staling the partluclar cor
rection* which shall be made and the
amount by which said returns will be
Increased.
'Where persons u-nd corporations liable
refused to moke returns and where in
your opinion, false or fntudule-it re
turns have been nltd, you will give no
tice to die delinquents and to those who
made such false or fraudulent returns,
to appear and show auuso why penalties
shall not be asses set againert them."
RANSOM ALL RIGHT.
Washington, April 16.—Careful Inquiry
here concerning the report that ex-Benu-
tor Matt W. Ransom, minister to Mexico,
Is not eligible to fill Che place to wlhch
he was recently appointed on account of
constitutional provision, finds the story
without foundation. Senvlor Ransom did
not qualify until hi* term of office as
senator had expired, and hls service and
pay dates from the time he qualified.
Senator Ransom's service as minister be-
when he took the oath of office, and
this woe not until Ms term of office ae
senator expired.
