Saturday’s work showed new shortages of $1,900, while today’s work reveals nearly $7,- 500. The latest finding their estates short are Mrs. AUda C. Brtlett, wi dow^ o-f Sanley Bartlett, sr., now in lOalifomia, and Mrs. Magdalena- Za- veallas, of 35 South Clijiton street. The District Attorney In sipeaking, of the Bartlett estate said today that all Indications are that approximately $7,000 is gone. Five mousand of the sum was siupposed to have been in a first mortgage on, a house in South Clinton street, but the investigation as far os it has gone has failed to show that any smdi mortgage -na-s ever taken by Mr. Cossum for the Bartlett estate. Besides the mortgage two bondB valued at $-2,000 are nriss- ing- In the case of Mrs. Zaveallas back: in April. 1-910 JosejSiine Clarkson a client of Mr. Oossum’s took a mortg age on her property for $3,000. Tho Clarkson -woman died and she named Mr. Cossum as executor. iShortly al ter her death Mr. Cossum informed the L-eahey’s the mortgage had been assigned to the Leahey estate and his books show the mortgage was credit ed to the Deahey estate. Accroding to Mrs. Zaveallas’ story te the District Attorney this morning on May 1, 10-16 she went to the Poughkeepsie Sayings Bank and drew out $500. The sum was in the form of a check on another Pon^keepsie bank and was made payable to Mr. Cossum. This she alleges -was to pay on the iVincipal of the mortgage. The check, according to the District At torney, has been traced and shows that it was indorsed by Mr. Oossum and deposited to his credit in the Farmers’ and Manufacturers’ bank the same day. His account books show that he received the mone: “I am informed he has not accoi ed for the above sum to the W. .7. Leahey estate”, said District Attorney Aldrich -w-hen questioned as to whether the estate ever received the money. 42 m FTT OF 80 EXAINO) (Continued from page one.)
