st. Paul, June %. = Gustav Stapf,
citv treasurer of South st. Paul, Is al
legged to be short in his accounts some
$1,000. Rev. l.. s. Stapf of Brainerd,
a brother of the South st. Paul man,
was seen to-day by reporter. He
said: ,,,
.sIt is q very unfortunate affair." The
DeOple of South st. Paul do not accuse
nv brother Of any intentional dishon-
esty. 1t is true that 1le used money
that did not belong to him, but it was
done with the intention of replacing 1t,
and it would have been replaced had
not his investments proved very un-
fortunate. The people of the city will
not lose a cent. however, as my BROTH.
er has considerable property, and
stands ready to make it all over to the
city officials. If there is not enough
of it to cover the amount Of the short
age the bondsmen will. of course,
make up the balance. The amount of
the shortage cannot be determined un-
til the accountants, who are examin-
ing the books, have made their report,
which will not be until tomorrow or
next day. Ny brother is not locked
up, and so far as l know, is not even
arrested"
The story Of the case is: Mr.. Stapf
first entered upon the duties of the Of
flee of city treasurer of South st. Paul
on July 1, 1885, and has held the pO-
sition ever since. He has engaged in
q number of outside ventures during
the time and they have proved uni
formly disastrous. He has been in the
grocery business, was a member of a
firm engaged in making filling for mat
tresses, and his last plan for making
money was dealing in live stock. Ev=
cry one of these schemes went wrong.
Thinking, however, that this could not
go on forever, he continued to form
new plans, and it is alleged that he
used the missing money in trying to
recover what he had lost.
Mayor Fitch signed a warrant for
Mr.. Stapf's arrest early on Saturday
morning, but it was not served, the
mayor simply informing the treasurer
Of his action and telling him that he
: was to consider himself in custody.
He was not placed in Jail, and it is not
probable that he will be. as the Of
fcials and many people of the town
place every confidence in him, and
there is no possibility of his attempt
ing to escape. He will have no trouble
In furnishing hail to whatever amount
may be demanded.

self up. The report says that Taylor
was first located at Havana. where he
registered as c. B. Phelps. and where
his brother-in-law, H. NJ. Benedict.
