CLAwSON's STEAL.

Forty Thousand Dollars of Spurious War
rants-Other Trustees Tempted.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WILLIAMsPoRT, Ind, Sept 9.-John B. Claw.
son, trustee Of Warren township, is the only
trustee discovered guilty of issuing spurious
warrants on his township in this county. Tbs
warrants thus issued will probably not be less
than SAC, 900. School supplies for his township
were consigned to him as early as last Decem-
Der, and three other consignments have since
been received at Riverside station for him. One
way bill shows goods coming from Toledo-being
blackboards. He worked his scheme in pro-
found secrecy, and the developments are slow.
His warrants bear 8 per cent, and some run as
late as 1887. Clawson rendered his resignation,
through a friend, to the commissioners last
Monday, since which time he has not been seen,
and it is supposed that he is now secreted in
Canada. His family have been in Kansas during
the past four weeks Clawson's successor has
not been appointed
All the trustees have been summoned by the
commissioners to meet them on Saturday at 9 A.
NJ, and produce their accounts, statements, rec
ords and papers showing the outstanding indebt-
edness of each. The investigation will be made
thorough.
There is not trustee in the county who has
not been approached by Indianapolis or FountaiE
county parties working the fraud, and urged to
engage in it. B. II. Mcintosh, of Pike and T.
Carr Fleming, of Gordon, were each offered
S., 600 if each would issue 15 900 in warrants ON
his respective township. Both refused to have
anything to do with it. Boyd, of Fountain
worked Mcintosh and Morton tried Fleming.
Developments are expected next Saturday.
