GLOSIERMAN SAYS
NOTHING WRONG
But the Owl Drug Company is
Out $960.00 Just the
Same
R. A. Closterman, the default
ing manager of the Owl Drug
company, of this cily, still car
ries his nerve with him, judging
from the following statement
published by the Cordova Alas
kan:
"R. A. Closlerman, of Valdez,
was in town today. He staled that
lie was not guilty of the charges
sent out in a special dispatch from
his town, lie further staled that
his differences with Pr.Boyle were
more of a personal than a finan
cial nature, and that. it. was un
derstood no publicity was to be
given the matter. We are glad to
frivc Mr. rjoslerman's .version of
the affair and trust that no in
jury will be done liiin through
any publication (if his difficul
ties."
The. farts of the rase are that
for some, time it has been noticed
that (ilosterman has been spend
ing money with a lavish hand.
During the recent visit, of Dr.
Doyle, to the states, Closterman
ran. things with a high hand,
spending money as if it was the
easiest, thing obtainable in Val
dez. This became specially no
ticeable when the Democratic
convention was about In assem
Jde, CJosli'i'inan hemming the
"money kid" of the llarrais as
sembly. Suspecting the young
man, marked money was placed
jn tin* tills, and upon ils disap
pearance Closlerman was charg
ed Willi the theft. Fiml.ng him
self trapped, be admitted the de
falcation and returned some of
the marked money to its right
ful owners. His peculations, as
far as they have come to light,
Mmoiinl In JjiOfiO.OO. For I he sake
•of Oosicrman's family it. was dc
•■eided tio'I to prosecute him, but
he was told to leave Alaska on
Uhe Alameda, and that failing to
so would result in a warrant
for bis arrest on a charge of fel
ony. He left on the last, steamer,
ostensibly bound for bis home in
Tacoina.
