EXTENSIVE FRAUDS.
The Valuation Of Property Raised to
Cover Them.

CINCINNATI. Nov. 20.
County Auditor Brewster, who succeeded
W. S. Cappellar few days ago, states that
he has discovered extensive frauds in dup
licate charges. Ex-Auditor Cappellar's CLERKS
systematically raised the valuation Of prop
erty returned by the board of equalization
and computed the taxes upon this fraudu-
lent valuation. He thinks their purpose was
to direct the attention Of the tax PAYERS to
the fact that they had paid an extensive
amount and recover . liberal commission for
making the discovery and obtaining for de-
frauded tax payers proper refundment.
E. w. Petit, the ex auditors chief deputy.
admitted that valuations were raised, but
claims that it was done by outsiders who
obtained access to the duplicates. Cappellar
denies that the charges amount to anything
like one million, the amount at which they
are estimated nv Brewster. The latter de-
mands the arrest of some of Cappelars
clerks.
