Septembfr, when Cerpepter's father to whom the I'm

rently perfectly regular; he slso found that 10000
shares belonging TO Baron de ROthsch!d, and which
bad been placed in safe in Grelets room, were az
pereptly intact Two days after, when neither Car
peptitr nor Grelct had made HE appearance, more
searching investigation made and robberies and
frauds TO enormous amount were discovered. 1t
was then ascetsIed that the two men had been very
intimate with Porod who was IN old schoOl-fellOr
and toEpsuan of Grellet; and thse in cor junction
with him they bad spec0lated largely ON the Bourse

fu and afterward the reverse II was subseq aently
discovered ibst the 9th Carpenter had sailed from
Havre for New York, and had written - Grel-
let to tell him so ; that Grellet had gone
TO Liverpool, AND bad proceeded thence Tor
the same destins'ion; and that Perod with womaa
named Felicie Dubut with whom he had lived fO-
some time, ard by whom he had had two children.
bad also fed from Paris TO Liverpool and had ss1ed in
The same vessel with Crelet for New York. Lastly,
it appeared that about the same time Guerin, who
had been in the service of the Railway Company first

peared that hismsp had gone 10 Brussels, and thetce

tuYIed out that , TOO OF them bed been taken away
and had been replaced by 1905 others removed from
the deposits Of other shareholders. The Ess IN which
they had been deposited hso been forced open, .ni
as Grelet and Carpenter could open 1t with keys, II
was almoa certain that the extraction must have been
made by Guern, unknown to them. In the cellars Of
the Company were other safes in which were depos-
tied shares belonging TO different holders and these
safes we're fastened with three locks two of keys
of which were held by Carpenter and Grellet the
third by director. Yet these safes had be- ooeaed,
and 240 Shares belonging TO tho Marquis de Lentiba?
had been taken from the envelopes in which they bad
