RSSO s Special Dispatch to The | SAN JOSE, March 10.—An increase Treasurer McGeoghegan's age to $7916 32, his resignation and the appointment of H. D. Matthews as City Treasurer were to-day’s de- velopments in the sensation growing out of the defalcation in the Treas- urer’s office. Charles J. Keane, who experted the books for Mayor Worswick, states in his report “I have made an examination of the affairs of said office and I find from a comparison of the account-books in 4 the office of the City Clerk in and for the city of San Jose with those of the City Treasurer that there is a deficit in the funds of said city amounting to not less than $7916 32. = A full and complete report will be furnished your Honor as soon as practicable.” From the cursory examination made Keane is not prepared to say just | when the money was taken. He says tk defalcation may be greater than what he } found. Keane ex- perted the books back to July 1, 1902, when the W ick administration came into power. The books will be experted back to the appointment of at McGeoghegan as City Treasurer the time of the death of the late J. | Ewing, more than five years ago. | l\'('RI-IAGF IN SHORTAGE. | Keane’s report shows an increase of $900 more than given by Messrs.

The Mayor read } the report of Expert Keane, the with- drawal of the surety companies from McGeoghegan's bonds and the Treasurer’'s resignation. Henry D. Matthews, Councilman-at- large, was appointed City Treasurer by Mayor Worswick, and the Council unanimously confirmed the appoint- ment. The new Treasurer has been chairman of the Finance Committee of the City Council for some time, and his knowledge of afairs will be a great entan- glement. Matthews is a prominent husiness man of this vty Councilman Hubbard introduced a resolution, which was adopted, that the Mayor be instructed to take all legal steps to recover from Thomas J. McGeoghegan and his sureties the amount of the shortage in the office of Treasurer and to do all other acts| and things necessary to protect the in- erests of the city. GRAND JURY MAY ACT. 1t was stated that this resolution does not empower the Mayor to prose- city funds. ) Assistant District Attorney Coolidge and H. 8. Bridges of the City Attor- rney’s office were interested spectators at the Council meeting. Their pres- ence at the meeting gives rise to the belief that the District Attorney’s of- fice will place the matter before the Grand Jury. Attorney D. M. Burnett was present in the interest of William Taaffe, who acted as deputy to McGeoghegan. There has been some insinuations that Taaffe knew of the shortage. Taaffe ing of a shortage. McGeoghegan, accompanied by Mr. Robertson of the surety company, went before City Justice Davison late this afternoon and McGeoghegan se- cured a search warrant against Wil- liam Taaffe, alleging that he possessed a key to the inner vault of the Treas- urer's office. McGeoghegan alleged that on or about January 10 Taaffe had a key made for the vauit, and that he might use it without warrant. Chief of Police Carroll served the warrant this evening and Taaffe surrendered said that McGeoghegan had told him to have it made. Taaffe acted as a dep- uty under McGeoghegan.
