Weir,s shortage.

NEW ALBANY, April 1O.-The accounts of s.
" Weir, city treasurer, have been found S70,-
GO short. For four months W. w. Granger OF
Cincinnati has been at work, as an expert, ex-
aiming Weir's accounts. Several weeks ago it
was reported that be had said he had found a
shortage, but at that time he refused to
talk Tonight ne handed in his report
70 the city council. il shows that SO 30 OF
the city's money Is unaccOunted for. 1t makes
no attempt TO show where the money has gone,
nor does il charge criminality upon Weir.
Thirty-seven pages of the record have been
torn or cut out, and upon these il is supposed
the accounts for the missing money was
kept. WeiT's system of Bookkeeping was
very loose. and Granger saws il has
been exceedingly difficult TO trace the moneys
received and expended. Weir has been treas
modest way in a cottage. The only bit OF ex-
travsgance was the ownership OF a race horse
which cost less than 5000. There is hardly a
conjecture as TO where the money has gone.
There is a suspicion that Weir ha been en-
gagged in margin" speculations. He is still in
New Albany, and his bonds are good Tor the
missing funds.
NV ALBANY, April 12.-[Special. In re-
gard 20 the city treasurer's shortage the expert
has dis covered a discrepancy OF about $1,000
IN duplicate city orders that have been paid
twice. II is said that this does not necessarily
imply the guilt of the treasurer, as the clerk
might swindle the city by the duplicates. One
city clerk in Treasurer " eir's time is dead and
another Is in Kansas. The treasurer is bound
to pay orders as presented when there Is money

counts straight, and says he i not alarmed
