RESULT OF INVESTIGATION Were Dlamanted for Ra- port of Rxpett OtorooeroWoro Short-Paid It la Mow Vp to Keperrleor. There seems to be a strong feeling of indignation among the taxpayers of the townofHadley over the alleged mis management of the town's finanolal affairs, which, it is alleged, hail ex tended over a term of years. Three years ago, on the petition of twenty -five or more taxpayers, a special proceeding was instituted before Justine Houghton, of The supreme oourt, to in vestigate the financial affairs of the town. Judge Houghton appointed Counselor William T. Moore, of Sara toga Springs, as an expert to examine the accounts of All officers who had the handling ef the town's funds.

Coun selor C. S. Enohes, of Glens Falls, was retained as attorney for the taxpayers, and Counselor J. H. -Bain, alsi of this village, as couasel.

Later Counselor T. W. Mc Arthur was for Mr. Bain. Counselor Moore, as appears by his'ra- port, found that the town fundi had been mismanaged.

The su pervisor, it appears, had retained a percentage of the sohoil funds to recompense him for the labor of receiving and disbursing them. The highway commissioner had commuted the taxts of two important corporations, amounting to $2,000, ac cepting a liberal discount for ready cash. The accounts of the overseers of highways showed that they had been piid less than the amounts allotted tbeni, but at the same time had given receipts for the full amounts. Moore submitted a report em bodying these facts among others, and the report was confirmed by Judge dpenoer. It is now op to the present supervisor to prosecute the accused of: fiuers for the recovery of the money rightfully belonging to the town.
