AIMAGAINST WALLER
STATE BOARD OF coMpRoMIsr
 AUDITING sHERIFF's BOOKS.
During His Last Term of ofice Through Clerical Errors, It is Said, an overcharge of
 S3,ooo Was Made.

State Auditor Sowell and Judge John Purifoy. former State Examiner of Pub lie Accounts, will begin next Monday to audit the claim of the State against w. R. Waller. Sheriff of Montgomery Coun- ty, growing out of an examination of his books during his first term as Sherif. The examination was made in July. lsss. by J. c. Cowan, then Assistant Exam iner of Public Accounts, who reported to the Governor that owing to clerical errors and mistaken charges Sheriff Weller was due the State approximately $, 900.
 The claim against Sheriff Waller has been pending some time and at its meet ing yesterday the State Board Of Com promise discussed the claim informally. Auditor Sowell was requested by the Board to carefully audit the claim ana make a report to the Board at Its next meeting, giving an estimate of the amour, which Sheriff Waller should be required to pay The Auditor said yesterday that he would ask Judge Purifoy, who was Examiner of Public Accounts al lne Iine ,.a,,s the examination was made. to assist him in auditing the claim and that they would begin the work next Monday.
 MT. Sowell said that Examiner COW, ans report showed that MT: Waher gnu . his deputies had made mistakes in the the administration of the office during his first term, that brought him out approx. imately 5000 in debt to the State Ine Auditor explained that these mistakes were made by placing wrong dates on warrants and commitments and making charges for feed and care or prisoners not allowed by law. For example, the Auditor pointed out that there were charges for solvent insane prisoners which Is not allowed. and that charges were frequently made from the date oL a warrant when the prisoner was perhaps not committed to jail until several days had elapsed He said that the Exam finer and the Board of Compromise were well satisfied that the errors were purely clerical and that Sheriff Waller was heio in high regard as a public officer. The Montgomery Sheriff, in fact, had offered every facility to the Examiner to make his investigation and it is said the Sher- iff has expressed himself as ready ano willing to remit whatever amount the Board of Compromise claims he Is que the State. r.,s Purifoy will check up the account fur nished by Examiner Cowan and make an estimate to the Board of Compre> mise as to what seems to be reas, enable settlement of the claim; He said further that it was probable they would find that many of the items charged against the State were correct ana that the amount would be greatly reduced.
