A suit was begun against the city by the patentee
Of the book formerly used to fls the cancelled
bonds Mr. Carroll was witness In that suit and
Mr. Emmett was not at his Office, but he was seen
last evening at his home in Morristown by q
TRIBUNE reporter. He expressed surprise when he
heard of the frauds, and declared that he knew
nothing Of an investigation. In my opinion" he
said, William Carroll was an honest man. Ineyer
but investigation will surely disclose the fraud,
II there has been any. To have carried
ont the scheme, the collusion of an outside con-
federate would have been necessary and there
must have been both forgery and perjury. A war
rant was never paid by me or by my assistant.

were forthcoming, with the cancellation. 1t was
customary then for to make the second cancella1
tiOn the next day. Until after CarrOPs death,
never knew that any coupons had gone out OF my
department without the second cancellation. One
brought in o small package that lad not
been cancelled. It was an oversight
| can't say. Since then the second cancellation
has been done by the auditor. There are only lew
houses that present coupons aud could point OUT
the men that collect for each house. If this fraud
has been carried on it can only have been in a small
way, or it would certainly have been discovered by
Mr. Forester myself. II Is great surprise to me
it will be still greater surprise if It'll true. 1t is
prepOsterous to think that the fraud-if there has
been any-amounts to such sum as 100000.
Mayor Edison said that he could not tell exactly
how the frauds were perpetrsted. In business
houses and banks, he said, II was the custom to
cancel checks and coupons when received lie had
ordered the Commissioners of Accounts to make q
thorough investigation though he had supposed
that they had done so frequently He regretted
that the matter had become public before the In
vestigation was completed.
Thomas p Carroll, relative Of the suspected
clerk, has written open letter
demanding an investigation of the alleged frauds.
He speaks of the fact that the charges were
made eight months after bis relative left
his desk, and soon after, he died. He adds
that there were so many checks clerks honesty
in the Controllers office that even If he wished to
do wrong It would be impossible. He asks sus-
