Th5 auditor and the Interes: Gebso


9!nce entering upon the discharge OF TIE
duties Of his Office Auditor Clinton has had
great many enbarrassments 70 contend
with-more, probably, than have obstructed
any former incumbent of the office and
had he not possessed a most sangEine ten
pecameIt he would have succumbed lcrg
ere this. He has, however, succeeded iu
removing one obstacle after another from
lis path until lie is now thoroughly tie
master Of the situation.
To begin with, previous 10 the last year
The largest delinquent tax list ever known
amounted to about S373,O00. For the year
recently closed tie list amounted to the
enormous sum of $2.5O0,G00, Of which
about 81 250,C0O belonged to the in
terest fund. The whole annual interest,
per year amounts to $l,493, ,35s; Of this
amount sl,2l7 eco was paid, leaving the
balance unproyided foEo For the settle
ment Of this amount money cyas advanced
by Mr.. Gainee, in behalf Of the fiscal agent,
and as soon as the money was received, Mr..
Clinton settled with Mo aiaines for this
amount.
MIR. Clinton has now on IanG fun6s sufio
cien. 70 cash the interest coupons maturing
in January and Bebruary of this year,
amounting to about 327s, 300 which he is
prepared 10 turn over for that purpose as
soon as lie can do so with safety:
but now comes a "brokers' rirg," al
leging that under act No. 81 of 1872
100000 Of this amount, collected for the
payment of interest, becomes diverted from
that purpose, and may be used in paying
registered warrants held by them.
Tie Auditor is resolved, if in Ills power.
to have this fund expended for the purpose
tor which it was collected, and hence de-
clires to deposit it until this can be guar
anteed. He is confident that ar arrange
ment may be made by which this may be
done in a very few Gays, and, at the rate
the taxes are now being collected he is
sanguine of making these payments prompt
~ hereafter.
For the information Of our readers who
may be interested in this subject we pub-
lish below the amount of interest maturing

DIXON, Ill, MAY "A terrible accident.
involving fearful loss of life, occurred
here this afternoon. The rite of baptism
was being administered TO a number of
regent converts to one of the Baptist
Snlches here at point in Rock river just
below the Truesdell iron bridge. About
200 persons, including many ladies and a
number of children. had gathered on the
bridge to witness the ceremony, when sud
denly, without warning, the bridge gave
way and prtclpitated its livS2g freight into
the stream below.
The scene which ensned was indescribably
terrible, AS struggling victims vainly en-
deavOred TO free themselves from the ruins
OF the bridge and Nom each other. Large
crowds of leS,rle on the hanks rushed wild
ly to and fro, many of them so distracted
with terror as to be unable to render any
assistance. Others, more seIf-possessed,
speedily brought ropes, planks end boats
and went nobly TO work to rescue the Ii wing
and recover the dead.
Some of those who were on the bridge
when 1t fell. we're SO near tho edge that
they were able to reach the bank without
as ssstance, while others were fortunately.
N reach OF those on the Gore. But up 10 6
y. NJ. thlrtv-twO dead bodies had beers7
taken from the liver, and it is almoat certain
there are others still under the wreck of the
bridge. OF those saved twen'v-four were
resued alive. but more or less il lrcd some
fatally.
. Dixon, H., May 5-The number of per
sons lost by the giving xay OF the Trues-
dell iron bridge il estimated at ninety.
Bodies were found Fix miles below the
scene Of the disaster.
Every house in the I.irv ia in mourning.
Several persons who were il ired have
since died. Dcrr9ks are being erected to
lift the wreck. Wnen the full ls,s of life
shall be asoerta;ned, IL IS thought mauy

where the loss of life was the greatest. the
bodies were held firmly TO the bottom of
the river IN the net work of the iron.
There were several buggies on the
bridge, but, strange 70 say, none of the
vehlcles or horses were injured. A horse
and wagon are still on tho bridge and food
