New Yous, Oct. 1, 1868. : Your communication under date of Septem- der 20, has been received by ine, and it affords me plea- wure to lay before you and my follow citizens generally a full and detaiied statement of the condition of the various City Departments, so far as my cxaminations have ex- tended, together with my own position, progress Darrassments in the great work I have undertaken. On the firet day of January, 1857, I took my seat as a member of the Common Council of the city of New York. bad occupied my seat but a short time before 1 becamo Convinced tha! there wus something radically wrong some. where; that the cetaiis of our vari@ms offices were very 4; that the business operations of the city very irregnlarly; that in the midst of the disorder and confusion such as T Saw existing, the corrupt and designing )» us could find aimple means to con. summate their schemes of fraud and plunder, On the 22d day of May of last year a committee was ap. pointed by the Board of Councilmen to investigate the affairs of the Finance Department. As one of that com Mittee it was my first care to secure the services of an abie accountant. Such a one I found, and the result has proven the wisdom of my choice. That committee en- tered upon the discharge of its duties, and T regret to say that, during that long and patient examination of the Ki. nance Department, 1 found myself, measurably , alone in tho ution of the difficult task. On the 22d of Octo- ber I presented « report of the result of my labors as far asIhbadgove. The Common Council having refused to continue the work further, and (he Comptroller having re- fused to pay tho insignificant expense already incurred, I found mycoit unable to proceed. An examination of that report will show to you that the ‘bookkeeping of the Finance Department wes in a most de- plorable condition, and that the manner of keeping and rendering the public accounts was most digraccful in all the nts. Large discrepancies wero found to oxist ‘between the books and the published reports. The amounts of stocks und bonds issued by the cit ‘were not properly entered on the books, and large deficl- encies were known to be somewhere, which only a de- tailed examination could develope. The public mind was Giled with artenishment and alarm when the publicati of that document was made, aud its most fearful appre- honsions were fully realized by subsequent report examinations Frauds sults of in the Street Department. ‘were exposed with astonishing rapidity. ‘The Comptrotier, it was discovered, deceived by those whom he Ind most trusted and by those in whom he was obliged to rely, had paid moneys and iscned bonds on contracts which were immensely fraudulent, or had no xistenoe, and pay ments had Wen made, largely ia error, in almost all branches of the city government. ‘The astovuding revelations immediately eucceeding my report induced the present Common Council to take an carly toward a full and minute examination of the various nts, and to andit tho accounts of ealtec- tors and disbersing officers. The Joint Committee on Ac- counts, the only Joint Committee provided by the ordi- ance, was instructed to commence the work. That committee, in view of the disordered condition of the accounts and the difficultics in the way of the undertaking, mo to superintend and conduct the work. T have been since engaged in this difficult task, and bave ed several reports to the comunittee, which they gent to the Common Council, and which have boca |. As I have stated, tho accounts of the ‘various collecting officors for the last five years have never Deen audited or adjusted. Whenever difficulties have been , the shortest and most summary method feems to have been ot to cut the gordian knot and balance accounts. The following copy of an entry on the journal of the Finance Departinent is exhibited to you, in order to show that disputed accouuts of hundreds of thou. thousands of Goliars are adjusted, at once, by a fow strokes of the pen— On Journal, folio 244, December 31, 1855.

I regard the fact collecting officers, being aware that their acconnts were suffered to lie without being audited or oxamined, and that they were not held to an accountability, as tho imary cause of their delinqnencies, But who is, or who been, to blame for this? Our present Comptroller, whose integrity cannot for a moment be doubted or quer. tioned, has been surrounded by difficulties and obstacles, which now exist and will continue to exist until some ra dical chango be effected in the workings of that depart. ment, As at present orgw Swamp any man who asenmes its head and ‘There is no system inthe avditing department, and no regular method in the keeping of the accounts. | No one can te — First, What is the correct amount of past dne taxes, Second.

No man can comprehend the trae condition of the trust accounts of the city And is our present Comptrolier really altogether to blame? The charter of 1840 provides that he shail direct the form and manner of keeping and rendering the public accounts, But the heads of the various Ye pend were elected by the people, and what has been the reswit ? First. ecting officers, who held their appointments under other department, did not and would not comply ‘with the requirements of the law, nor the directions of the Comptroller, either in the manner of keeping their ac- counts or of making their returns. |. Payments on awards and contracts for local improvements have beon made in gross error, on false or erroneous requisitions from other departments, as in the case of Canal aud Walker streets, Beckman street, and other cases. Third. The Comptrotier has been mensurably at the Mmorcy of other departments, as the laws have in too many instances been framed by thoee who were in the Rervice of designing politicians and contractors. The Clerk of Arrears euteret upon the prmance of his duties on the 17th day of February, 1834, the law establishing his department havin, seed the pre. vious year. Both the Receiver of Taxes and the Collectors ‘of Assessments neglected to send promptly to bis borean the amount of nnpaid taxes and assesements as required the provisions of the law. Om the 26th day of Oc tober, 1864, the Receiver of Taxes, it appears, did send a return from his office, which return and ail subsequent returns have been received by the Clerk of Arrears not as correct, and receipted for by bim with the proviso, “or rors and omissions exeepted No correct retarn has ever been made to him for assessments, and consequently none bas been charged to him. The following amounta appear on the ledger as having been charged to him as unpaid taxes, October 26, 1854 Amount prior to 1854 seeeenee Amount of tax of 1864. Amount of tax of 1855. Amount of tax of 1856... Amount of tax of 1867 Amount of tax of 1868, No examination or auditing has aacertain whether these amounts are correct or not, whether they are represented by anything in fact From this general statement of the condition of our Finance Department (the particulars of the srecessfully devised schemes resorted to for the depletion of the Trea ury, having been presented in the ate of the Join Committes on Accounts before referred to,) T turn to a subject of vital importance, which hae, froin the com Mencemoent of my investigations, been kept constantly in view, and to which I have given the most careful conside- ration, to wit: the remedial measures necessary to pre. ‘vent a continuance of possible recurrenee of the criminal errors of the past eight years. The reasonable limits of a letter will only permit an outline of the principal changes which seem to me impara tive in establishing a system of accounting which shall combine simplicity, clearness and acanracy. Tam firmly of the opinion that there is no more effectual check upon ishonest claims than the certainty that such cloime must undergo a wn examination by a competent anditing accountant. As the duties of such an offleer demand the beat clerical ability, it seems proper that they should be E uirements to be filled by an experienced ar ountant. He Showa be required to ‘audit, not only » ch accounts as Tay be presented for payment, but all the allowanc-+s and computations in the several departmente, on which claims of certain descriptions for yory large amounts are based. ‘This would servo to frustrate connivances at im pe cr clams at their beginning, and to fix the responsi } lity of attempts at fraud or collusion where it justly be- ong. ‘To chow the practical working of such an auditing bu- reaii as L have augkested @ plan for—under Ure conviction thatit must become a prominent featare in any well con. tidered eyetem tor conducting eflicient!y the affairs of the Finance Department—I will stute its application to a class of recounts which seem in the light of recent deveiope- ments, to Love afforded peenliar temptttions to and frauds, Lrefer to those connected with assoag- fer strect improvements I have exporienced groat xing the revponsibility for the numerous vs, over allowances and irregularities which we have Tn the absence of any auditing or accounting worthy the name, alterations in contracts and certificates, errors in extensions, footings and tran- seripts, eraeufte, interlinings and overwritings, all of frequent med occurrence, cannotalways be de- finitely traced to the culpable parties—each department acting independently cf or in concert with others, % fish interests might dictate. Responsibility ia thus from one to aa er, according to the circumstances of 6 Case. ‘When the contract for a given work is awarded and tho contract drawn up for execution, the first auditing should commence, aint the auditing accountant should make the requisite examination to enable him to certify to its con- formity to the terms of the accepted bid or estimate, and the specification upon which it is founded, Three copics from the origina! contract, duly certified, Should be furnished for the use of the Comptroller, Sur: veyor and Board of Assessors, The Surveyor’s return should be furnished to the Street Commissioner, andl in duplicate to the Comptroller and Board of Assessors. The Surveyor should be required to certify that his return in- cluded no work not embraced in the contract, nor any which was not performod in conformity to its specific con- ditions. Tho assessment list, when completed, should bo examined critically by the auditing accountant, and his certificate to the correctness of the computations and font- ing, and to its agreement with the contract, be required betore being acted upon by the Common Council. Upon the confirmation of an assessment list a certified copy should be furnished the Finance Department, when a proper account should be opened by the bookkeeper with the improvement for which the assessment is authorized, to which should be charged, upon the Accounting Audit- or’s certificate, the payments made by the Controller to contractors, surveyor, & the accounts of warrants drawn and assessment bonds being credited, according to the nature of the payments, To this account with the im- provements should’ be credited all collections thereon made by the ector of Assessments and Clerk of Ar- rears, thd receipts from sales of the property by Clerk of Arrears for detinquoncies—the Chamberlain being at the same time charged therewith, ‘The ledger containing th accounts would show the amount paid, the amount collected and the amount due on any assessment list at any given date. The Collector should be charged with the amount of cach list, as placed in his hands, and an account, to be styled ‘Assessment Account,” credited with the same. As collections are made, th " should be charged to assessment ac- count, and credited to the Collector, Atthe end of twelve months from the date of the confirmation an auditing of the Collector's account on each list would determine the amount proper to be charged to the Bureau of Ar- rears, the Collector's return for which should be accepted by the clerk of that bureau upon the certificate of its ac- curacy by the auditing accountant. ‘On this final auditing, the Collector's account with each improvement should balance. The balanco of tho assess- ment account would always show the amount of uncollected assessments, and the balance of that account compared with the balance of the assesment bonds account would always show to bbe extent outstanding assessment bonds were in excess of uncollected assessments, if at any such should be the fact. dee If the Collector shonld receive payment for assessments, and fail to discharge them of record or to pay the bmp | to the Chamberlain, and should include the fame in bi return to the Burean of Arrears, the notices issued to the apparent delinquents would be pretty sure to bring tho ~ of a ment pote nea - Every Tepancy ween the records, ments ty Chainberlain, and return to Bureau of Arrears; would’ be certainly detected in the final a referred to. be et de- uditing: This method of auditing and recording should to the accounts of every collecting officer, varying tails to meet the pecifiar requirements of each, and if once intelligently established and persisted in, coukl not fail of the most salutary results. auditing and book- —— of the Finance Department are closely related du- Hes, If the firatis neglected the last is pretty certain tobe negligenily performed, and the establishment of a system of effectual checks, such as most result from careful au- diting, is hardly more necessary to assist in redeeming us from ailing disorder, than that an intelligible sot of books be kept, which sball afford the same ev’ of the r recording of the city officers’ transactions that p dog 8 of a bank do of the financial transactions of its officers. Under such a method of anditing and bookk as I have matured, not only would the liability to by negligence and fraud be greatly Iessened—if not entiroly removed—but a balance sheet from the principal ledger would bea self-explanatory report, showing at a glance the expenditures in every department of the city govern. ment under proper captions, the amount collected revenues from every source, the amounts uncollected, and who are held responsible, the state of all accounta for whieh aj vations have been authorized, the true cost of the city’s property and the true amount’ of the city’s indebtedness, whether in floating or bonded debt. Such an exhibit, in short, as every prudent merchant require from his bookkeeper, and such a every citizen nas a righ to expect from the chief officer of thg department of the city of New York. Unless the revelations which hare been made, and which have formed the groundwork of there suggestions shall be deemed of importance enough to induce action on the part of thoge concerned, in having a more creditable financial history in future, I in the mines of official corruption will gather materials for another volume, which, if it do not surpass that now wag written in the value of its teachings, will at leas equal it in the record of starting and disgraceful facts. The pablic convenience and interest would doubtless: be promoted by a radical change in the mode of collecting assessmente, reuta and other revenues.
