SUSPENDED FROM OFFICE.
City Treasurer of Buffalo Charged
with FnlsifyinE Accounts
by the Mayor.

Buffalo, N. Y, Nov. 2o.-Mayor
Diehl Tuesday suspended City Treas.
urer Philip Gerst from office.
In the notice of suspension the
mayor charges Mr.. Gerst with mis-
conduct in Office and with having kept
inaccurate and false accounts, and
specifically charges that from the ac-
counts of the city treasurer the
amount of cash on hand to the credit
of the city is $4,000 in excess of the
actual amount.
The examination of the treasurer's
accounts, which has been in progress
for several days, will be continued.
Specifically the mayor charges that
Treasurer Gerst borrowed from
banks upwards of $4,000 with which
to cover up the shortage in his ac-
counts at time when an examina-
ton was to be made; that in August
last he loaned the bank $4,000 of the
city's money, and that at various
times during the current year he APP
propriated to his own use moneys be-
longing to the city, the aggregate of
such sums being $4,246.
