CoLLECT0R McKEE's CASE.
no one WIN Lose Money BY nlm.


Although the County Treasurer's
against tax collector George w. Mckee,
OF the Southern dlstrict Of Wilmington
he has not more than $4,000 ON his du-
Ipllcates uncollected and had he been
permitted he would have had the most
Iof that collected by this time. -
The difficulty In Mr.. McKee's case Is
that he lad his sl2, 600 OF collected
taxes placed where he could not Inn
|mediately realize upon 1t and when
tho general order came from the Levy
Court to tho Sheriff to levy on the
property of the collectors and their
|bondsmen, to secure the various
amounts due, Mr.. Mckee was not OK
empt.
The sheriff has gone through the
form OF making the required levy. and
some of the sureties not understand
ling how matters stood as we'll as
lothers, got little scared. The fol-
lowing are Mr.. McKee's sureties: DIR.
u. @. Fahey, Charles Green, John A.
ICranston, Henry Blouth, David Dangel,
u. i. Malone and John Mealey.
The sureties hold meeting at the
Office OF John Mealey, No. 205 Market
street, yesterday to talk ovcr the mat
ter. 1t is generally understood that
tho sureties saw nothing in the situa-
tion to cause alarm.
Mr.. Mckee can pay 10000 of what he
owes the county about next Tuesday,
To meet this he has about 1850 In
cash and $500 In county orders.
| The other $4,000 cannot be realized
upon for few days yet, but that tho
county may get the use Of the money.
AN accommodation note will be ar
ranged by the sureties. There will
then remain $4,000 uncollected taxes
duo the county, and even this will be
reduced by allowances of errors.
One of tho 5uretles said to REpuB-
LIcAS reporter this morning that no.
body need be alarmed at Mr.. McKee's
situation. He is partnerin thriving
coal and lumber business with from
$50, 900 to $4,000 OF stock on hand.
None of the money he has collected for
taxes Is In his business, except that
(which his commissions amounted to.

The Tail End OF the Democratic Party
Left the Health Office at 1.3O A. VI.
William H. Leelw bounced out OF
tho Board OF Health Office this fore
noon at r11.30 o'clock. The Board OF
Health held Its regular session last
night, but had kot along without a
minute book, William II. Lee having
seen proper TO romoye IL from the Of
flee. Secretary Colquhoun. however,
kept the minutes on a slip Of paper.
The board having got tired Of getting
along in this crippled kind OF shape,
resolved quietly 10 hold an adjourned
meeting this. forenoon at II O'Clock to
take further action.
The Board had aiken the precaution
to send to Philadelphia for an expert
to come to Wilm ngton and open the
secretary'5 case and safe, but he did
not arrive until this morning.
Whom the Board met at II O'Clock
this forenoon, Mi. Lee was present In
the outside room, This WINS what the
Board wanted. The first action OF the
Board was the adoption of a motion
made by DIR. Shortlldge TINT Secretary
Colquhuun make demand on ex-
Secretary Lee for the key TO tho desk
OF the office, and the combination key
to the safe.
Mr.. Colquhoun waited upon Mr.. Leo
and demanded thb keys and returning
reported that he refused to give them
up.
The next motion OF DR.. Shortlldge
to open tho desk md safe was speedily
adopted and q ldcksmlth from Mel
chlcrs establishment soon had the
desk opened.
Mr.. Lee finding It lnconvenlent to
guard the desk and safe at the same
time. the safe being In the hallway,
planted himself Id front OF the latter
and protested vehemcntly against the
opening OF the safe. Chief OF Police
Swiggett being present advised Mr..
Lee to ab5quatulate" qultely. Lee
begged for time % half hour TO con-
suit with his attorney, and If he advis-
cd him to give up he would do so.
Chief Swi9Gett suggested that 1t
would be best for him to go and not
tarry oil his going.
Lee, seeing determination In tie
chiefs eountenanre, faltered when the
chief gently assisted him to the head
OF the stairs, down which the tall end
OF the Democratib party descended,
and wended his way to friendly news
paper Office to pour out the story Of
MS woe.
The Philadelphia expert then went
to work with hammer and chlsel and
at 1880 the outside doors flew open.
The inside doors also being locked the
the expert had to 30 through the same
operation and In O few minutes more
they too flew open aud at last tho re-
cords, books and oil documents be-
longing to the Board were In the hands
OF Secretary Colquhoun--no, not all,
the minutes book'that contained the
record OF Lee accepting a bribe of a
$50 from Thomas Pagan was missing.
In one OF the drawers of the seere-
tary were a dozen or two Democratic
block books of tho respective wards
and photograph of William Herbert.
All Mr.. Lees private property will be
carefully kept and handed to him when
he calls for them. Melchoir has been
instructed to put new locks on the
doors and on the Becretary's desk. So
ends the Board of Health war unless
