The preliminary report of the
auditors employed by the county
to investigate the books in the
several county offices seemed to
show that Mr.. COVERT, the county
clerk, had, through errors and
misconstruction of the laws relat-
ing to fees in his Office, retained
fees amounting to a considerable
sum more than he was entitled to.
The report, however, states that
the question of whether the clerk
was entitled to the fees was n of
law. Mr.. COVERT says that if, I'M
der the law, he is not entitled to
the fees enumerated in the report,
he is ready to refund them. But
he submits some figures which go
to show that, instead of receiving
more than he was entitled to, there
is a small amount due him. In
1907 he was entitled by law, for
himself and deputy hire, to $4,000.
He received S3025. He omitted to
charge himself with 500, and de-
Quoting this and the amount he re
ceived for that year, from the
amount he was entitled to, leaves
due him 1925, In 1908 he was en-
titled to $3.50. He received S3450
and omitted to charge 1925 These
two amounts from the $3.50 due
him, leaves STA still due him fol
that year. This with the S255 due
him for the1year previous, makes

ing of 1909. Deducting the sum Of
1928 55 he omitted to charge him.

from this the fees he received
for services as member of the
board of equalization, namely
$3.50, as to which there is a ques-
ton of law, and there is left the
sum of S75.4 5 due him. And if the
fees from hunters license,to which
he believes the law entities him
is added, amounting to $153. 80, il
appears that instead of retaining
too much fees, as the auditors re.

CORNELL NOT CONFIDENT
Butler Practises Kicking-Men
Expect Much Hard Work.
tBy Telegraph TO The Tribune.

Ithaca, n. Y, Nov. 19-While most oil
the men who played against Michigan
last Saturday were taking rest this
afternoon. Captain Eddie Butler spent
his time trying to improve his goal kick
ing, which has not been up to the stand
ard of other years. Should he be able TO
bring his footwork around into form the
prospects of Cornell ending her football
season with a flourish would materially
brighten, for, despite the good work on
Ferry Field last Saturday, the news
which came from Philadelphia to the eff
feet that Pennsylvania had defeated the
Indians took much Of the confidence out
of the coaches and the Cornell team.
Buffers kicking last year could be de-
pended upon when he was within the %
yard line, and he has been known to make
goals from midheld.
DR.. Sharpe said this afternoon before
going to the field that he intended TO give
the men the hardest kind Of work from
now until Thansgiving Day. To aid him
in this work he will have the use of
CornelIs strong freshman team until Sat
urday. when the youngsters will Journey

bled yesterday that Maurice Brocco. OF
Italy; Oscar Egg, Of France, and Mar
Gel Berthet, one of the best of the French
middle distance riders, have been signed
TO compete In the six day race In Madl-
son Square Garden the week beginning
December g. Andre Pertchicot, the ma
tional short distance champion OF France,
who has been in this country since Aug
ust also signed yesterday to take part
in the big race
Egg, who recently broke the one-hour
unpaced record, will team with Pertchi-
cot, and Brocco and Berthet will double
up. The latter are experienced six day
riders The Italian took part In the New
York race last year and his sensational
work was the attraction Of the week
Egg has never been in a six day race,
but his ability as long distance rider
should make him a strong contender.
Pertchicot finished second to Root In
the recent Toronto race and in Boston
he was even with the leaders when bad
spill put him out three hours before the
finish. In the worlds championship this
year Pertchlcot finished third to Frank
Kramer and Alfred Grenda.

Olcott is putting the final touches on
the New York University team, in prep
aration for the Annapolis game on Sat
urday, which will wind up the season
for the team. The victory over Rhode
Island State last Saturday has put
new spirit in the team, and as the Navy
has proved rather weak this season the
men are confident
Olcott trieo out a new combination in
the backfield in the last game, which
proved 10 be the best attack for the
varsity this season, playing McDermott
at full and Miller and Baldie at halves.
1t is probable that this trio Will start
the game on Saturday. Before the regu-
lar scrimmage with the scrub. the var
sity went through a thorough drill In
signals yesterday afternoon. During the
practice Wiener took the ball down to
the end of the field and showed up very
well in drop kicking.
The varsity then lined UP against the
scrub for stiff scrimmage. The line
showed its old strength. and the scrub
was unable TO gain ground. although the
coaches used one OF the regular backs To
test the strength of the varsity line
Kaplin was in again at quarter in place
of Huntly, and showed up well. He ran
the team In the last game, and, despite
his size, played a remarkable game. In
Huntly's absence. he will call signals on
