WAS THIEF
FROM
VERY START

Ex-City Clerk w. H. Moore was
thief from the day he became city
clerk. The result of the work
of the examining committee shows
Moore up as the greatest criminal in
the line of swindling exposed for
many years.
The committee, consisting of c. l..
Russell and Miss Rodgers. completed
their work last night The Herald re-
porter called on Mr.. Russell this morn
ing but was informed that the CON
tents had not been made public and
that the exact amount, or report,
would not be opened until the council
met. Through conversation with 9TH
er members of the city council, how
ever. we are unofficially informed that
the shortage for the entire three
years will approximate $4,000. We
are also informed by well authenti-
Gated rumor that the report will show
that Mr.. Moore was a defaulter from
the time he took office, it being stated
that when j. w. Greenfield resigned
he turned over so much money to his
successor, w. H. Moore. 1t is said
when Mr.. Moore opened his books he
credited over 500 less than received.
AS Mr.. Russell would not talk as to
any details or the time when the mon
ey was abstracted, we have it from
other sources and from hasty glance
at the books that they do not cores
pond with the treasurer's receipts,
in some instances to over
81 600. From what information we
can gain unotiicially Mr.. Moore will
be short nearly six thousand dollars
from April, 1899, to April, 1901, which,
with the shortage for the last year,
will make the total about twelve
thousand dollars.
1t is understood there is no equity
in his Durango residence and the val
ne of the San Juan county mining
is not known.
II Moore had held the Office anoth-
er year the chances are that he would
have had collared all the receipts pay
able to the clerk. When he answers
to the eighteen information filed
against him it will be questionable
about him securing bondsmen, which
will undoubtedly call for sum equal
to the shortage.
