BUFFALO, Nov. 0-Considerable ex-
element was caused this afternoon by
tho appearance of body of United
States troops from Fort Porter, under
command of a sergeant, on the grounds
lately improved by the Delaware, Lacka-
wana and Western Railroad Co., at the
foot of Erie street, for the purpose of
building coal shutes, and ordering the
men of the company to desist work. The
ground in question is what is known as
the North Pier, which was built by the
government III 1888, and has been in
their undisputed possession since then.
The railway company claim title to the
whole property, having purchased it
from the Holland T.and Pnrchaca cam
orders under which the property is guard
cd were forwarded to-day from the war
department. The question OF title will
so to the courts. In the meantime the
pier is guarded and work at stand-still.
MILWAUKEE, Wis, Nov. 20.-There
are many rumors in circulation in regard
to the amount Of money embezzled by
Charles q. Bosse, late bookkeeper of the
Wisconsin Fire and Marine Insurance Co.
Bank, it being variously estimated at
from 100000 to $25O,00O. The bank
officials decline to make any statement in
regard either to the loss or manner in
which 1t was accomplished, but it is gen.
orally believed to have been through
means OF fictitious accounts. This, of
conrse, would necessitate confederates
outside Of the bank, but not even rumor
has been able to fix on tue name of the
person or persons. The examination of
the books, running over period of ten
years, Will be long and tedious task,
and until it is completed nothing definite
can be stated in regard to the defelca-
lions. Mr.. Mitchell, President of the
bank, admits, however, that the loss is a
serious one. Since his arrest Bosse has
transferred his homestead and other real
estate, through his brother, to his wife.
