published in the papers, within few days, that
$20,0 600 worth OF United States bonds had myste-
nouslv disappeared from the vault OF the Hart
ford National Bank.
Mr.. Royal Wilcox a wealthy citizen of this
city, made special deposit Of that amount, be
claimed, In the bank prior to his going TO Europe
few months ago, and said he gave tue bonds TO
the President OF the bank. The President did
not remember having received them, as they
could not be found when MIR. Wilcox, who re-
turned recently, applied for them. This gave TO
the whole transaction the mystery alluded to.
The case was gwen into the hands OF the
police, and Chiet w. p. Cham berlin has been
actively engaged in searching Tor some clue to
the missing property. To-day the following
facts transplred:-On the 3lst OF August Mr..
Charles ID. Tuller, teller of the bank, sold $1,000
OF seven.thirty bonds to Alfred S. Robinson,
gold and stock broker, and the next day dis
posed of $4,000 to B. f. Able, broker, which Mr..
Able subsequently sold to MI. Robinson, who
forwarded them to New York. Mr.. Tuller, also,
on the 3lst of August, sent $4,000 of tn ase bonds
to the Fourth National Bank, New York, as
transaction for the bank, and sent afterwards
$4,000 to New York Tor disposal, making $50, 0J0
in all. MIR. Wilcox, the loser adyertsed his
lObb, dIu gave Tue nunDtIb Ol tue UO0uS
MIR. Robinson, through this channel, found
that some OF the numbers mentioned cor
responded with those he bought from Mr..
Tuller. This fact was ascertained by Mr.. Cham
berlin, and from this start he found that Mr..
Tuller had disposed OF the $4,000 worth of
bonds which were missing. Tuller was arrested
this morning, and told an unreasonable story,
to the effect that stranger gave him the bonds
to dispose OF, which he did, and as last as he
realized he paid the money over to the un-
known, who disappeared as suddenly as he
made his appearance before the accommodating
teller.
Tuller had an interview with the directors of
the Bunk this afternoon, and it is reported that
the matter is to be settled The affair has
created much surprise here, as Tuller is yoang
man who h IS borne high character. and was
specially admired Tor his Christian virtues. He
is superintendent OF t1Ourishing Sabbath school,
and always appeared very enthusiastic in his
missionary work. 1t has been noticed that he
lived rather extravagantly, but nothing serious
was thought OF it, as his father is a man of con-
