$4,000 miles through the State this being
caused largely by the necessity of in
vestigating reports that many persons and
firms throughout the State were engaged
IN various kinds of business without a
State license
\ large number OF statements made
under oath bv merchants and manufac-
turers, when applying for yearly mercan-
tile license, were investigated, and IN
nearly every ease the amount sworn To
was greatly below the amount ascer-
tanned by my examination. In a4ew cases
where il was plain that there was no
criminal intent, the party Mt fault was
permitted to make correction upon pay
ment of the difference plus n penalty of
% per cent for not paying at the time re-
quircd by the statute The remaining
cases were brought to the attention OF the
grand jurv OF the different counties, and
in all cases the defendant was indicted,
and when brought INTO court pleaded
guilty and received fines of from SO to
500, and compelled to pay the difference
with the penalty of % per cent added
The result of these Investigations during
the last three wears is very largely in
creased revenue for the State In New
