They have discovered that the deficit up

had been deputy treasurer for twenty years. and
who died suddenly on Thanksgiving Day last

County Treasurer Adams. The deficit was carried
on by a system of check -kting and manlpula-

Wire Chief Lucas of the Metropolitan Tele-

morning that there was trouble on one OF the
private wires leading out of his Office on the
fifth floor of the company's building at Spring
and Wooster streets. Soon afterward he hap
pened 10 glance out of the window and saw a
man on the roof OF l62 Spring street, taking
down the very wire on which the trouble was
The wire chief sent two Of his assistants 20 see
what the man was about. They met him COM
ing out OF the doorway OF 1872, carrying about
500 feet OF copper wire. He said he was Michael
Byrnes OF 327 East Thirty-second street, a line
man In the employ OF the New York Fire Alarm
Company, and that he had been sent to take the
wire down. He readily accompanied the assist
ants to Wire Chief Lucas's office. Upon inquiry
at the Office of the New York Fire Alarm Com
pany II was found that Byrnes was no longer
employed there, and Policeman James j. Dunn
was called in.
When he entered the ONCE of Wire Chief Lucas,
Byrnes was leaning against the switchboard
facing an open window ON the Spring street side
of the building. Lucas made a complaint
against the man. and Policeman Dunn asked To
step forward and made flying leap, head fore
most, through the open window. He struck on
his head and face on the pavement below, and
nearly every bone in his body was broken. An
ambulance was summoned and the man was
conveyed TO 81. Nincent's Hospital In spite OF
his terrible injuries he was conscious and able TO
