BRIEF EXAMINATION or THEM ny GENERAL
LANSING.
General Lansing, the accountant who has
been engaged by Mr.. ]. L. Killgore to make an
examination of the accounts of the city treas
ury during his incumbency, made brief pre-
hminary examination of the books on Tuesday
Of about half hour.
General Lansing makes the statement that
he found the books in such muddled condi-
ton that he concluded to throw them aside alto
gether as of no account in the examination for
the purpose for which he has been engaged,
and will simply take the receipts of cash receiv-
ed and cash expended and from them make a
report which he thinks will be eminently more
correct and satisfactory than would be re-
port made up from an examination of the ae-
counts as per books.
The General did not express any opinion at to
the merits of the case other than that there ex-
listed grounds for Mr.. Kilgores statement but
that in such hurried examination any iudg-
ment npon the matter would be premature
