The Story Told About Superintendent
MeInernay of Tuma's PonftcntfAry.
A special dispatch from Yuma, Ariz.,
to the San Francisco Examiner Of Satur-
day, says
dent M. McIuernay this afternoon on
warrants charging him with embezz!ing
territorial property from the peniten-
tiary ct Yuma is the beginning OF one
OF the most sensational political scan
dals ever developed in Arizona, dis
gracing q prominent Republican official
and involving besides the maladminis-
tration OF the penal Institution. McIn-
ernay was appointed from Prescott by
Ex-Governor N. 0. Murphy over two
years ago. succeeding Captain Frank s.
ingalls,, thus receiving one of the most
remunerative appointments in the gift
OF the executive. The governor and his
officers were Republicans, but shortly
after the accession of Governor i. G..
Hughes, through President Cleveland,
ex-United States Marshal w. X.
Meade, well-known Democrat be-.
came prison upeTintendent, assuming
charge April 22d, although the records
were not completely ia his possession
uHtil lew uaps ago.
1t WAS ascertained that during the
past few months McInernay had pur-
chased large amount OF costly furni-
ture, tableware, rugs and other goods,
ostensibly for the superintendent's res-
dence and the guards mess house, but
on retiring had packed quantity OF the
articles in boxes made by the convicta
FROM lumber and fittings purchased by
the territory, which be transported
to the depot for shipment to
Prescott. Mr.. Meade prevented
their removal by threatening McIn-
ernsy's arrest. The latter at first pre-
tended indignation, but finally confessed
to peculations reaching between $500
and $500, offering to compromise by re.
turning the goods, which offer was re-
jected. The various cases were returned
to the prison grounds for examination,
and the ex-official. on warrants sworn
out by Meade, was arrested and taken
before Justice of the Peace Meade for
preliminary examination, put by request
OF hie attorney the case was continued
until tomorrow morning to enable him
to obtain witnesses.
The disgraced official was OF conviv-
ial disposition and drank heavily. His
downfall ia heavy blow to the Terri
torial Republicans, more especially as
one OF the first acts of the incoming
Democrats necessitates the unearthing
of scandal so noisome as this has
proven. The investigation is still in
progress, under the direction of the at
torney- general, and it ia believed that
further irregularities will be brought to
the surface neceHsitating the bringing OF
additional charges. The prompt action
of the governor, attorney general and
Superintendent Meade in generally COM
mended by members of all parties, and
the current belief that the outgoing ad-
ministration SO far aa concerns the peni-
tentiary was the worst in the hietory of
Arizona appears to be well founded.
