The case of Tappan, the treasurer of the
Boston Betting company, has all the char
acteristics OF those respectable robberies
which Boston business life abounds in.
The betting company was most respecta-
bic institution, and les treasurer was most
respectable gentleman. The company was
organized thirty years ago, and Tappen had
beenlts treasurer ever since. What grea-
ter guaranty could the company have OF
the uprightness of its trusted officer than
this unblemished record running through
generation? And yet the treasurer ap /
pears to have made the confidence he had
gained by SO long and patient career Of
honesty subservient to his dishonest
schemes at last. The company was veal
thy, and SO was he. Il was worth 81 1900
900, and he was worth $1,000, 900. One
would imagine he had enough TO satisfy
him, or enough, at least, to place him
above the temptation that is so trying to
poor young man, He was man of frugal
habits. not given to indulgence, display,
or fast living La fact, he was a
very proper Boston man. But he
had one weakness, like Chace, the
Fall River defaulter; be was afflicted
with greed for money that he had no use
for. He wanted to be something more
than millionaire. He did not require an
enormous amount of means to minister to
bis indulgence, for he seems to have bet n
dry. sapless stick without the desire for
indulgence. He was ambitious to make
money for the cold qualification of beirg
successful. His thirty years of integrity
enabled him to rob the company without
exciting suspicion. 1t had no hint of his
operations till he resigned his position and
new treasurer was elected in bis place,
when it was found that the institution was
honeyeombed by his borrowings, and It's
losses we're 100000 The frequency with
these embellishments occur in and around
Boston suggests the impossibility of de-
vising any preventive. The offenders are
always men of high character and they
generally possess the singular misfortune
of being serenely uncoDcious Of their guilt.
They imagine they are unfortunate and
that is all.-S. Louis Republican.

Judgments Against Tweed for Twelve
Million Dollars.

New York Feb. 14-Judgments for about
90, 900 900 and nearly 80 100000 interest were OBJ
tained against VIM. M. Tweed yesterday. THIS
makes about s25.Oo0,ooo now on record against
the OK Boss.
Tweed's motives for confessing judgment
are. in the first place. II saves the employment
of counsel to appear in the cases. and as it
makes no difference to him whether the judg-
ments against him are for $4,000 900 or sloo.-
600 600, since neither will be paid and there Is
saving OF expenses by confession.
The second reason Isl i is vel X knoWn y p,t that

against him well defined by Judgments. SC, as to
have the decks clear for insovent proceedings
to avoid the embarrassments and difficulties
which would arise in opposition to such pro.
ceedings in case unli1uidated claims like those
sued upon were outstanding. Besides this it Is
probable that should Tweed be released from
