EGANs LOANS
TO DAVIS MAY
!. Be INVESTIGATED
Late Hudson County Leader
Left Debts OF $500, 900,
1t Is Said.
Especial to the Newark start

JERSEY CITY, March 24.-It de-
veloped yesterday that the late Robert
Davis left debts ~aggregating over
$1,000 0 OF this amount $4,000
is said to be due County Col
lector Stephen M. Egan, represent
ing loans Of county money made to
Mr.. Davis 1t is understood that all
OF this sum has been made good to
the county by Mr.. Egan and that
neither the county nor Mr.. Egan's
bondsmen will suffer as a result Of the
transaction Mr.. Egan's detailed state
ment OF the loans made to Mr.. Davis
were gone over carefully and it is said
that the estate will return the full
amount to the county collector.
Legal opinions differ on the question
of the county collectors right to do
what he pleases with the county funds
as long as he is protected by bond.
The general opinion among lawyers
is that the question has never been
legally cleared Of doubt. In the case
of Hudson County there has not been
any provision for the banking of the
county funds, 1t Is said, and there is
no regulation requiring the collection
of interest IN county funds.
For the last twenty-five years the
same system has been In use by county
collectors.
Method, OF Collecting.
The whole system of collecting and
holding county funds is generally be-
lieved to be a rule of thumb system.
Municipalities are sometimes in debt
to the county almost a year. County
Collector Egan, 1t is said. used to wait
until he needed money for some pur-
pose to demand payment Of moneys
from municipalities.
The municipalities, all or many OF
them, exact 2 per cen from the banks
for deposits of municipal funds. AT
the same time they are frequently in
debt to the county for sums on which
the interest is being collected. The
same funds, If paid owe to the county,
would be banked without the county
receiving any interest upon them.
1t is now pointed out that this is
an improper way to care for the
county's interests. but 1t is a system
that has been in force for the last
twenty-five years and nobody has ever
brought the matter to light.
Mr.. Davis vas not aware of the seri'
Gus nature of his illness and he wa:
