IRVING MCOOMBS DEAD.
The Man Who stole $1,000 Of the Se-
attic Fire Relief Fund.

irving p. McCoombs, who was sent to
the penitentiary from this city in the lat
ter part of 1889 to serve a term OF five
years for embezzling the funds OF the
fire relief committee. died at Spokane
yesterday morning of paralysis.
McCoombs came to Seattle from san
Francisco in the spring Of 1889. He was
q hale fellow well met, and, according TO
traditions. was good faro dealer. After
the great fire OF June he got in with
the relief committee. was made secretary
and manipulated things so that he ham
died the funds to his own benefit, as II
afterwards turned out. When suspicion
was first directed at him he put on an
air OF innocence and demanded an investi-
CATION. When the matter was sifted TO
the bottom 1t was discovered that Ne
Coombs had made away with about 81 900
OF relief money by the use Of fraudulent
orders. He was arrested, tried, convicted
and sentenced TO the penitentiary for five
years. He came out OF prison broken
down In health and spirit. This did not
prevent him from making a lot OF affi-
davits to the effect that other people got
the greater part of the relief money.
McCoombs was jail bird before he
arrived In Seattle. He served term in
San Quentin. Cal, for forgery commit
ted in San Francisco. Detective Mere
dith, of the local police force, has copy
of the commitment. At the time Of his
death McCoombs was about so years old.
He was born In some New England state
and came from a good family.
