CHARLES |NAN
HAS CONFESSED
TottenvilIe Postal Clerk Held
for Federal Grand Jury
Action

TOTTENVILLE, June 7.-Charles
imam, of Prince Bay, a clerk in the
~'ottenville postal station, suspended
the first of the month and pl~ced
under arrest by Postal Inspector
<eene on a charge of stealing from
he United States mail was arraign-
I'd In federal district court in Brook
.yn yesterday and held for the fed
eral grand jury some time next
week. Finan is said to have con-
tessed to the theft when arrested by
Inspector Keene the first of the
month. He is out on bail awaiting
disposition of his case. Postmaster
Frank Foggin has said that the
trouble started in the Tottenville of
flee III November 1922 when Super
~tntendent Slaight reported a shortage
in the postal accounts in his office.
Mr.. Foggin made an investigation
and found the reports true. but could
not locate the person responsible.
h shortage was made up by Mr..
Slaight. A full report of the short
g was made by the chief inspector
of New York, who ordered a close
check on the Tottenville office with
the result that from time TO time
small shortages were found.
Orders were then issued by Post
master Foggin to report when all
c. o. D.. packages were delivered to
the addresses and the dates upon
which remittances were made to the
shippers. This resulted after a care
full ~check-up in finding that Finan
failed to remit to the senders and
converted the cash to his own use.
Inspector Keene came to Tottenville
and made a thorough exa mination,
finally securing the confession from
Finan who also delivered to him the
=. o. d. tags, which he had taken.
Postmaster Foggin says that Finan
at no time took large sums as far as
can be learned and it is not deter
mined as vet what the thefts will
amount to. but Superintendent
Slaight, it is understood had made
up $175 in shortage out of his own
salary during that period. Finan is
twenty-three years old and has been
in the postal service for the past sew
eral years. He served at the Prince
Bay office, st. George and came here
last year..
