LOUISIANA TAX
OFFICIAL SHORT
BIG DEFALcATIoN IN ACCOUNTS
OF CHIEF CLERK TO THE
STATE TAX CON-
MISSIONER.

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. ia $780,
600 shortage was discovered today In
the accounts of the State Tax Com
missioner in this city. The police
are searching for Charles e. Letten,
Chief Clerk to State Tax Collector
John Fitzpatrick.
This is the third defalcation in six
months in the Louisiana State Tax
Department. The two previous ones
totaled nearly 100000, and today, for
the second time, there is no clue to
the whereabouts of the missing Of
fetal. A cursory examination of the
books of Mr.. Letten indicates a de-
felt of about 100000. All the ma
chinery of the police departments OF
this and surrounding States is being
used to ascertain Letten's where
abouts. He has held the position for
nineteen years and today no record
can be found Of any bond having been
required of him. Letten was one OK
the most prominent Democrats in New
Orleans and held the position of CHIEF
Clerk to former Mayor John Fitzpat-
rick, who today said that he would
make good any deficit in Letten's &C
counts.
Up to tonight the police had not
been able to get trace of what was
done with the missing money. Mr.
Fitzpatrick, after examining the
books, said the shortage appeared to
have begun four years ago and to
have been hidden by using delinquent
taxes and the current year taxes to
cover up the deficit of the previous
year. Four days ago Mr.. Fitzpatrick
called for the final statement of the
1906 taxes earlier than his chief clerk
had prepared to make it. Letten
worked with Mr.. Fitzpatrick two days,
helping prepare this statement, and
Yesterday suddenly left the office I'M
der the plea that he must see doc
tor. Mr.. Fitzpatrick found that Let
ten had not gone to the doctor and
Immediately opened the chief clerks
desk, the revelations following. The
police have not<yet secured any clues
to the missing mans whereabouts.
