CLERK IN CONTROL
Of MILLIONS

ALBANY, N Y, Feb. 10.-Comptrol1er
Martin H. Glynn made public tonight
the results of an investigation which
he had made into the condition of the
stock transfer tax bureau of his Office,
with reference to the handling and dis
posal of seven millions dollars worth
of the stamps issued by that depart
ment for use in the transfer of stocks
under the act of 1905. According to the
ComptrolIers statement, more than
s50000OO worth of the stamps have
been destroyed either in process of
manufacture or by actual burning,
without adequate record of supervision,
in the two years since the act was
passed and there is only the personal
word of single clerk, salaried at
$500 and not under bond, to certify
the fact that they were destroyed at
all
The stamps were printed by Quayle
& Son of this city. The plates were
In the custody of the Comptroller's rep
resentative and each day were deliv-
cred to Qauyle & Son.
The paper first used was of an ordi-
nary commercial Sort which Comp
troller Glynn said was stored In the
Ouayle shop under an ordinary lock in
an ordinary room. While the sheets
were counted before printing, there
was no safeguard to prevent their be-
ing abstracted.- Moreover, the Comp
troller declared. the count of sheets
did not tally, the explanation being
that some of the paper was used for
other purposes.
The first issue was found to be sus-
ceptible of counterfeiting, and in May
or June of last year the printing OF
these was stopped, and new issue was
begun on patent paper.
when the new paper which was to
defy counterfeiting, came to hand
said the Comptroller, 'it received no
better safeguard, but was left in the
Quayle shop. And the Comptroller's
seal, with which the bundles were
sealed, was apparently as carelessly
treated"
A statement was made to him by
watkins, the Comptroller said, add
ing:
He says that early in October he took all
the' tSe Isnlts down to to ouayss shop In Green
street and boxed them up, and they remained
there without guard or watchman at least one
The 'ass asRGs
There were over two millions IN this lot
81 256, ,211 which had been returned by the Bank
Of g Which had
been issued do not know how long they re-
mafned at the Green-street shop, but. according
to watkins statement. they were brought back
days before l assumed office. they were burned
In the furnace downstairs, without having been
counted or checked up and without Witnesses
sponsible for their care. The record OF the
burning Of December 20 was not entered until
December 1.-THE day bsfors took Office.

HAVE NO RESPECT
FOR P|NCH0T
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

TACOMA, Feb. 1o.-"Gifford Pinchot
has done more to retard the growth
and development of the Northwest than
any other man or any other circum-
stance or factor"
This was the statement made by Gov
ernor Mead in discussing the Federal
forest reserve policy and the with
drawal Of Whatcom County lands from
entry.
"Pinchot has great influence at
Washington" continued the Governor
He has the ear of the President and
seems to be Independent Of any de-
partmental control. / have twice heard
him lecture. He was not convincing.
nor have / ever been impressed by his
show of ability. He is an Eastern man
He seems to know little of the West.
nor does he appear to have the re-
motest sympathy with it's ideals He
works on the theory that forests are
conservers of moisture, that they act as
reservoirs and prevent floods by pre-
venting the too sudden melting of the
SHOWS. / am not going to quarrel with
that theory. though / cannot say that
the proof has been any too ample, but
do protest against extending the ap-
plication OF the theory to farming
lands"
Lieutenant Governor Coon likewise
has ideas regarding Pinchot.
He is rich and dilettante," said the
Lieutenant Governor. HE plays at
forestry. It is a pastime with him
something to keep him occupied. He
seems to be quite independent. He
possesses great power in Washington.
for he plays a fine game of tennis"
To show how the forest reserve sys-
tenn has worked in some cases, the
Lieutenant Governor cited instances in
his own county, . Jefferson, where at
one time 81 per cent of the county was
placed within q reserve.
