Answer: Souther knew there was a leak within the branch working for Vince LaRocca, and even says as much to Deloris when she rings him to bail her out earlier in the movie. When Eddie Souther finds out that Det. Tate specifically requested that the receipts be left with him, and knowing that Tate would be sharp enough to figure out key information on Deloris' whereabouts, the penny dropped that Tate was crooked. In a backstory context, other potential witnesses had come undone by Tate's leaking as well. Souther no doubt realised as he was barging down the corridor that Tate had accessed other documents on the sly which led to the whereabouts of other protected witnesses.

Answer: It's not necessarily that it was unusual, it's that he knew that they could be used to find Delores. He didn't want anyone seeing them.
