bio SrEAL.--Fall River, Mass, April %
The Border City Mills are closed, and the Saga
more Mills will shut down tonight. George T.
Hathaway, the defaulting treasurer, was in con-
sultaton with his counsel during the most OF
last night, and to-day he was waited upon by
committee Of the directors. but they could obtain
no satisfaction rs to what disposition he had made
OF the stolen funds. Ii Is acknowledged that
all the directors are ruined. with the exception
of Chales p. Stickney. and lie loses $3.50, 600 of
his investment of $lSO,O00 in the corporation.
James Il. Cunnen, q hard working and honest
man, who was Superintendent of the Border
City mills, loses $4,000, the savings Of thirty
hve years toll. He began life as mill boy, and
has worked his way up.
George 7. Hathaway, the defaulting treasurer,
was arrested tonight, and taken to the jail at
Taunton.
J. Angler Chace, whose recent defalcation of
half million dollars in connection with the
Union Mills is fresh in the public mind en-
phaticaly denies lIathaway's statement that
they were in collusion, and says that Hathaway
is trying to throw tho blame for his crime on
him. From all that can be ascertained, there
can be no doubt that this defalca,ion will reach
100000.
The city is terribly excited and full of floating
rumors about the soundness of other corpora
lions, but there is no foundation, as far rs is
known, for any of these stories.

AN ARMY INSTITUTE.
A MEETING TO-DAY IN NEw-YoRE FOR A vALUABL
PURPOSE.
IBY TELEGRArH TO rHE TRIBUNE.l

IBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBONE.l
WASHINGTON, Sept. PA meeting of army Off
GERS win be held on Saturday, at p. m, at the
Office of General D. s. Stanley, Superintendent of
the Recruiting Service in New-YOrk, to organize q
United States Military Institute similar to the
Naval Institute which has its headquarters at the
Naval Academy.
1t is the purpose Of a number Of prominent men,
bers Of the Naval Institute when the Military Inst
tute is organized to propose that the organizations
shall be consolidated into one with ITS headquarters
at Washington, to be known as the United Service
Institution Of the United States and to be devoted
to the advancement of general and professional
education, and the discussion of military subjects
The plan is to model the consolidated institution
somewhat after the Royal United Service Institu-
tion of Great Britain and it is believed that with
its headquarters here, such an organization would
receive substantial sympathy and aid, and quasi
official recognition from the War and Navy De-
partments.
The Naval Institute was established in October,
1873, with about fifty members, ranging from rear
admirals TO Cnsigns, and embracing the staff and
line and now numbers nearly 200 members. Meet
ings are held monthly at which papers submitted
by members are read whether the author is pres
ent OF not, after which discussion ensues on the
subjects treated and the papers and report Of the
discussion are printed and circulated among the
members II is thought that the departments will re-
cOgnize the value of the proposed institution TO the
service emitting It to aid to the extent Of pro-
Viding rooms in the new War and Navy Depart
ment building for its meetings, and tOr library
and professional museum.
