GROWING LARG Err.
Another Addition to the FOerstel
DefaICation.

DelatCaIlOn.
ST. LOUIS, Dec. 23.-At tonights
meeting of the city council the com
mittee investigating the city treas
ury shortage reported with specific
charges against suspended City
Treasurer FUerstel. There are two
charges, one of neglect with
seven specifications and one of general
neglect to personally attend to the du-
ties of the office. A special meeting OF
the council was ordered held Dee. 81 to
discuss the matter and act upon it.
Assistant Comptroller Fred Ga
bic, working with Treasurer Par
sons on the books of the of
flee. has found that $500 more
is missing that should be in the vaults
for the payment of salaries. When the
auditor certlfies the pay roll, the total
amount is placed to the treasurer's
credit on the books, and if employees
of the city do not call tor their
salaries the money stays in the office.
There are many men Oh the pay rolls
who leave their money to accumulate
for months. 1t is part OF this fund
that is added to the defalcatiOn. The
amount of the city funds has so far
been confined to comparison of what
ought to be
The examination of the city funds has
so far been confined to comparison or
what ought to be and what is in the
treasury. This now shows net short
age of SG3. 800 Is. 1t is still asserted that
when the formal official inquiry and
thorough examination of all the books is
had there will be decided increase in
the amount missing.
As the city treasury scandal is prObed
two facts become clearer, VIZ: That
Young Foerstel's shortage began two
years or more ago, and that he was i'll
the hands of a merciless blackmailer.
The latest and most convincing
proof of this was given today by
Jewel Smith, long a friend Of
the Foerstels. He stated that two years
or more ago he warned the young men
against one Carroll. Recently this was
recalled to him by remark by Ed
FOerstel that lie would kill that
d-m Carroll for his talk" A
day or two later Mr. Smith met
Carroll, ard in conversation the
latter said lie had a paper Foerstel
would give $1,000 for. He asked MIR.
Smith to tell that to FOerstel. Mr.. Smith
did so and saw that it worried the young
man, who asked that Smith try TO get
look at the document, the outside of
which Smith saw in his first chat
with Carroll. An effort to do so
failed, but the second interview was
such as to make it certain that Carroll
was Dlackmailing Foerstel and perhaps
had been doing so for months. The
question now is how much Ed FOer-
STEPS shortage went into CarrolPs
pocket. That no one can tell but that
this phase of the case had much to do
with the attempt to burn the city hall
and the subsequent suicide is now GER
tain.
Elk Treasurer Foerstel's bondsmen
met this morning. They were not long
about deciding what course TO pursue,
and soon agreed to pay over whatever
shortage there may be as soon as the
demand is made upon them by the city.

Peculiar Support Given SEN
ator Davis by Republican
Newspapers.
One Stabbed Him in the Back
While Processing Great
Loyalty.
The Organs Ready to Wei
4 come a Break Against
10 the Senator.
Some Of the Loyal Sayings
~ OF One Reliable Davis
- Paper.

The manner in which the Republican
papers of the Twin Cities have handled
the senatorial contest thus far has been
most peculiar. and admits of no rational
explanation aside from the theory att
vanced bv the GLOBE some time ago.
This is that some, if not all, of the Re-
publican dailies of the two cities would
gladly chronicle the defeat of Senator
Davis. Under these circumstances the
attempt of these organs to persuade
their readers to believe that there is
really only one anti-Dayis Republican
in the state is Supremely ridiculous.
There has not been day, except posi-
bly, one or two Sundays, since the re-
suit of the election was declared that
the Merchants hotel iC this city has
not contained above half dozen prom
inent Republicans who are not only
opposed to Mr. Davis, but have been
actively working against him.
And every one of the Republican
papers know just who these men are
and something OF what they have done.
Why, If these papers are honestly for
Senator Davis, have they not published
something of the real facts and not at
tempt to give the public the impression
that Gen. w. F. Cross, of Red Wing, is
the only antl-Davis man?
In the case of Mr.. Cross there are
very good reasons for his position.
Senator Davis entered into an agree
ment with him by which the senior
senator promised to

TOO MANY IRONS.

Senator Robert Kuehnert, who disap-
peared Wednesday evening, owes S4O,

secured by borrowing money on mort
gagged property. HIS wife now admits
that he left here Wednesday evening,
but says she does not know where he
went or why. She offers to turn over
all her property to the building associa-

Kuehnert had "too many irons in the

financial mess which finally grew so
deep that he had to flee. He had no
bad habits as far as is known and it is
mystery what he did with the money.
