turned in his books showing that all
taxes had been collected. but the
totals did not tally with the collec-
tions which should have been made
under the grand total Of the duplicate
While Deputy Comptroller George
Ball was going over the books he dis
covered an error that was made when
the duplicate was prepared. Two
amounts which should have been
counted in the hundreds" column
were counted in the thousands col
umn and meant a difference in taxes
Of about $500.
When the Levy Court meets on
next Tuesday this amount viii he az
lowed Mr. Hickey as an error. and his
bond will be marked satisfied When
auditors David Hillegaa and William
II, Gibbons make the audit of the
books they will find that Red Llon

revolvers beside them, Mrs Lulu Mayor,
25, and William Poland 3s, were found
in a room in an Anacostia boarding
house early this morning. Mrs Naylor
was dead. Poland had two bullets in
his abdomen, but may recover. a re-
yOlyer duel between the pair and Mrs
MAYORS husband is the police theory.
Poland made several conflicting state
ments to police while being taken to
hospital in a police patrol. He is held
Tor further investigations Poland denied
tnat he did the shooting. A pi, j duel
between Mrs. Navlor and Poland was
first suspected until Poland declared
"the andlady" did it Later he accused
Mrs MAYORS husband
a roundup Of all persons in the
boarding house with 81 police dracnet
was ordered today Poland and the
husband Of Mrs. Naylor are bartenders
Neighbors aroused by fusillade Of
shots broke into the room and found
Poland and the woman unconscious.
The walls we're riddled with bullets.
Mrs. Naylor had been shot in the
chest and abodmen. The room was a
wreck, giving evidence Of fierce
struggle. Furniture was broken and
scattered
A formal charge Of murder was
made against Poland today His land
lady Mrs. William l. Wilkins. was

produced a perfect alibi, the police
declare. He was asleep in his room

the motive for the shooting. Surgeons
say Poland's injuries are more seri-
Gus than first diagnosed. A bullet
was located near his heart. and fears
are expressed for his recovery.
