why is This Thus.

A few days ago man by the name Of
8. NJ. Fay. the collector of the Los An
gsles Gas Company, disappeared for
parts unknown. An inquiry on the part
Of the HERALD at the Gas Company's
office was answered that his accounts
were all square and that the President
knew nothing about anything wrong
about his conduct or accounts. The Of
fcers in this city who knew Fay init.
mately were anxious to 60 in search Of him
aud bring him back II be were needed,
but the officers gave them to understand
that they did not want him, and as no
complaint was made or warrant issued,
no steps were taken to find and secure
him.
Yesterday Sheriff Currier received q
circular from Harry Morse's Detective
Agency, Saa Francisco, stating that Fay
had left here after snlbezxling large
amount and had gone to Slexioo. 1t also
stated that Fay was in Tucson ON the Stk
inst. aud left on the 9th for Sonora.
That is very peculiar. Our officers had
no intiinatien that there was any thing
crooked about him or lie could have
been caught by telegraph at Yuma.
The Deputy SLeriffs here are indignant
at this treatment in ignoring them and
hi ~
sending <62 miles for detectives to work
up Fay's capture. What does this
meant Why could not the trnth have
been told at once and Fay have been
captured BY the deputy sheriffs Of Los
Angeles county instead Of importing 4
man from ) distant part Of the State to
do the same ct greatly increased ex-
pense! II the company had said that
his accounts were crooked he could have
been captured in less than forty EIGHT
hours by the Los Angeles officers. Now
the officers here are kept in ignorance
for twelve days. and thsn informed that
something is wrong. but not till Harry
Morse's man had returned without the
party accused. It is queer proceed.
ing to say the least.
