that remain unaltered If she should

connected with the wholesale steal
from the city indicates that instead
of it having extended over a long
period of time, the work was done
largely after the suspicion had been
aroused that there was something
wrong with the finances of the office
and was done in an effort to get all
the money possible before the final
moment of accounting arrived.
This development comes as a sur
prise as nothing of this kind was
ever suspected. The jury will prob
ably have it's final report ready to-
day. It is predicted that there will
be great difficulty in holding Cum

upon which conviction can result.

STOLE PLENTY
when EXPOSURE
Was Being MADE

RENO, Dec. 9--The Washoe coun-
ty grand jury has convened and be-
gun an investigation of the cases
against former City Clerk Christie
and former Deputy Clerk Cunning
ham, who are charged with embez-
element and forgery. respectively.
Many witnesses were summoned
who testified against the accused
men. The jury investigated closely
into the affair and the district at
torney@ has stated that both men
will be indicted and that he will be
able to secure a conviction in both
cases.
Startling developments were made
in the investigation, according to
the statement made by the district
attorney. 1t appears that a large
amount of the missing money was
taken by Christie and Cunningham,
of which there is no account in the
city books. and that the most of the
money was taken by the accused
men after 1t was discovered that
there was something wrong with the
hooks and that they had failed to
make an accounting.
The Cunningham case goes before
the grand jury without a prelimin-
airy examination being held.
