Prosecutor and Sheriff
Answer

Answering the board of freehoIder's re-
cent query as to what caused the
overdrnwing of their appropriation ac-
count, Pr. secutor John J. Quinn,
Monday advised the freeholders
that, firstly, criminal procedure could
not be anticipated. Second he said,
several thousands of dollars of the
years appropriation were expended
by his predecessor in the Hog Swamp
murder case and that he had expend-
ed some $4,000 in securing conviction
of some II disorderly house proprie-
tors in Neptune City,, in the prosecu-
ton Of whom several thousands of
dollars were collected in fines and
he added Neptune City is without
disorderly houses for the first time
in several years. Sheriff John H.
VanMater wrote the board that the
reason for his appropriation being
exhausted is that more papers were
received for service thru his Office
than was anticipated at the time the
budget was made up for 1926, The
office, he said has paid the county
&22, $780, so received for the service Of
papers from Jan. / to Nov. /, an in
crease over last year Of $3,770.25.
"Your report" Sheriff VanMater wrote
shows that you have paid out of
our appropriation $40. 7S2.68, or 3d.
