PROSECUTING ATTORNEY MCKEE
WILL SEEK TO HAVE ORDER
ENTERED TODAY
Sensational Disclosures Made When
Report Of Audit Was Filed Have
Caused Considerable Comment.

Prosecuting Attorney ID. a. Mckee
stated yesterday that he would appear
before the board Of commissioners
this morning for the purpose OF hav-
ing an order entered by the board
covering the findings against ex-Sher-
in Clemans. disclosed by the recent
Ohio county audit. so that these fnd-
ings may be included in the suit pend
ing against Clemans in the circuit
court. 10 is the intention of the
states attorney to have the cases
against ex-Sheriffs Taylor and Glenn
ans disposed OF at the next term OF
court II possible. Since entering the
Office OF prosecutor. Mr.. Mckee has
endeavored to have these cases come
TO trial, and he is now determined
that there shall be no further delay IL
he can avoid IL.
Since the rather sensational disclo-
sures were made when the report OF
the audit was filed. there has been
much comment about the city over the
manner in which IL is said the sher-
iff's office was formerly conducted.
and more than one person has been
heard TO express surprise that II
seems necessary 10 go into the cir
cult court to recover amounts shown
by the audit. The statements given
to the public at the time the report
was filed We're Sensational, but care
full study OF the report shows that
some of the findings against ex-Sher-
in Clemans are even more startling
than was at first supposed.
Large Amounts Due State.
The first audit made by the state
tax commission. filed in 1912. includ-
ed an audit OF the first and second set
Elements Of Clemans. while the second
audit includes the other two years.
When the first audit was made, n
disclosed that there was $500 due
from Clemans 10 the state because Of
a $500 bond forfeiture and 5000 in
fines received by him and not account
ed for. That amount was paid by him
when the audit was made. But the
report recently filed shows $1,000
more due the state from the same
source. and no part of it has yet
been paid Not only that but IL
shows that the greater part Of the
SllOO came into Clemans' hands
through the efforts of the representa-
tiyc- Of the state tax department who
mad" the examination. in other words.
that the examiners found the money
due the state and had the parties ow-
ing n turn b. over TO Clomans. while
he was still Sheriff. and that Clemans
kept 10 and has failed 90 turn 10 over
20 fhe state 10 date.
Following the first audit and while
Clemans was still sheriff an audit OF
the offices other than the sherins
was being made. 81 that time 10 was
discovered that bond given by IT.

audit. is another matter which has
caused comment not favorable TO Mr.
Clemans. The report shows that the
sum OF s70S.35 was deposited with
the sheriff. that being the amount Of
the state license for part of the year
This transaction OCCS-red at the time
the city council revoked the Mahoney
license for the White Front saloon in
1909. and the place was taken over by
Thomas Halpin. II is shown by the
audit that this llcnse was not paid to
the state by Clemans.
What has proved surprising 10 those
people who have given the disclosures
some attention is that in the matters
that have been mentioned there are
no legal questions involved, but there
has been nothing paid by eV-Sheriff
Clemans. These matters were all
taken up i'm detail with Mr.. Clemans
several months before the report was
filed by J. IT, Otto OF the tax com
missioners' office. but nothing has yet
been settled by him.
There IS some conjecture as TO what
was the amount received BY Mr.
Clemans for interest on the public
money ne deposited I'm bank Il Is held
the county whatever sum he received
for interest. but II is shown that they
weer unable 10 determine the amount
received. This matter was referred
10 the prosecuting attorney. who will
probably have 10 summon officials Of
the bank where the money was de-
posted in order 20 learn the amount
that was paid Clemans The first
audit shows that he received 81 SOS SO
before July l. 1911. and II IS thought
that the amount received for that time
10 the end OF his term will be about
the same
