The Wrong impression.

When this report was read last even
Ing at the council meeting, many peo-
pie in the audience, who jumped at
conclusions, Immediately figured out
IN tnelr own minds that City Clerk
Moore was short over $4,000 and there
was near sensation over the report.
Afterwards when the matter was
more carefully considered. it was seen
that no charge had been made that the
city clerk was short, the report mere
~ stating that he had not turned
sS,4SS.13 into the treasury and might
nave that sum in his desk or safe.
Friends of the clerk, and they are
legion, attributed the report to care
less bookkeeping and predicted that
he would be able to balance every
thing up by producing cash and war
rants to an amount large enough to
equal the amount he should have
turned into the treasury.
He was given the opportunity last
evening before the experts made their
report, to produce the amount and 60
before the council with clear record,
but this he failed to do and in fact
was not present at the meeting, being
sick at his home.
The experts reports was delayed UNI
= the last moment in order to give
MN an opportunity TO straighten up
the matter. 1t is said that the error
was found several days ago by the
experts and the clerk was given plenty
OF time to arrange his affairs SO that
MS books would balance.
Although he was not at the council
meeting last evening. he was in the
city office Immediately afterwards and
when The Gate City representative
asked him for statement, he replied
chat he had about $1,000 in city funds
IN his pocket showing bunch of
papers, which when turned over, will

This Mornings Developments.


The developments of this morning
put new appearance on things, for
the city clerk failed to show up, or
make any effort to straighten out mat
tiers.
Telephcning to City Collector Paul
Luedtke in the morning, Mr.. Moore is
said to have stated that he was down
ON the levee and would be UP in the
city offices in twenty minutes.
He did not appear.
1t is said that he bought ticket to
Quincy this morning and left for that
city on the morning train, taking with
him whatever city monies he had in
his possession, the amount estimated
at about s1,So0, which includes about
$500 cash.
Numerous and exaggerated rumors
were rife during the day and friends
recalled the peculiar actions of the
clerk on the evening before. He was
present. in his office at 7:30 o'clock, at
which time he gathered up some pa
pers from his desk ana vault and then
left, not showing up nor sending word
while the aldermen awaited his com
ing so that the meeting could start
A telephone message 20 his home
brought the reply that he was sick in
bed and could not come down. Then
an officer was sent up to the house
to secure the key to the desk

Nothing was done today toward
Strengthening out the deficit and no
legal action has been taken Future
developments are awaited with much
interest by all. Those who are close
! to Mr.. Moore said this afternoon that
the matter would be satisfactorily set
tied in a short time
