His statements deal with the

Dr. Goricar has made

accuses their consular and diplomatic
representatives in this country of di-

it has seemed sufficiently worthy of
notice to came ourfoderai authorities
to union to what Dr. Guitar has to

vestigation to determine the truth or
falsity of his charges.

But the public has suspended judg‘
mom. and waits calmly for corrobor-
ation. Dr. Goricar‘s critics charge
him with being a renegade, a spy in
the pay of Russia or England, rather
than a conscientious men seeking to
undo a wrong committed by his own

books of 1hr: City of Norivaik were
the worst kept set of books that he
had ever seen. Stubs and paid bills
are the only books that are kept by
the city clerk, and none of these are
definitely drawn. They are only
drawn for one or the Cuber of the
city departments, such as street, fire,
or police. The city treasurer has a
cash book on which charges are kept,
and aside from these two places, the
city has no books whatsoever to show
clearly and exactly how the money
has been spent in the lost two years.
There is absolutely no report in the
office between the dates of Septem-
ber l, 1013, and Oct. 8. 1913. The
funds of the fourth and fifth taxing
districts. said Mr. Montgomery. are
in a fierce mixup. They are thrown
together and no one can separate
them. They have been in this condl
lion from October it, 1913. until the
present date, and it is about time that.
they were straightened out. The‘
bank interest is entirely confused on
the accounts of these two districtl,
and it is impossible under the present
system of accounting to tell which is
which. The appropriations for the
fourth and fifth districts have no-
turally been put into one, and as a
result. we are entirely in the dark in
regard to the money appropriated for
one. The fourth district has had to
pay rent on fire hydrants. which
should have been charged to the fifth.
Mr, Montgomery also stated that. dur-
ing the last two years. the city has
no record of anything which was pun
chased by it for these districts. and
it doesn't even know what belongs
to it and what does not.

"Therefore. gentlemen," said Mr.
Montgomery, ”you can see that tho
(‘ity of Norwailt certainly needs some
one to go over its books and straight.
on them out. No one. will be able to;
give you a contract price on the work
until they have made a preliminary
examination of the books, and this
will cost 3500 as has been asked for.
After-ulna has been done, a force of
men could be placed on the. books
and clean them up in a very short
time."

M. J. Riordan stated that he be-

 

lieved the street department bills to
he in correct form.- ..ll‘bey were all
handed in to the city clerk's office
properly made out. and if there is any
error now, he thinks that it is on the
part of the city clerk.

instructions were ever given to him
by the council or anyone else in re-
gard to making ermine on the books,
and he had to put them where he
cotdd.
and everybody else’s,
Bodweli.

Mr. Montgomery then said that all
bids, according to the. charter, must
be certified by the treasurer, but this
mm never done. "We had no time or
no chance to do things right," do
elm-ed Mr. Montgomery. ' '

At this point it was “suggested that
the books he brought before the
board and let the members see their
condition. The books were brought up,
but William K. Mel-hon objected to
the nomination. Why waste our
time on that work?" he asked.

Mr. Montgomery stated that checks
were drawn many times to one man,
'when everything could‘~have been cow
cred with one check. No traces of
diversion of funds were found on the
[books and everything appeared to
have been carried out in the right
'wny, only there was nothing to prove
it with.

that he had seen signs around in oili-
