The Kendall Bonds, Agsin-The Pund.
ing About % Commence.

For the past two or three days there has
been a good deal Of talk and much specu-
lation about the action OF the Board OF
Sinking-Fund Commissioners I'm regard to
the work of the Kendall Bank.Note and En-
craving Company. IL was known that the
most Of the bonds had been printed by the
company, and that they had been
received in this city, and 1t was
equally well known that the style OF
execution OF the work was unimpeachable.
Still the work OF funding was not under
taken, nor did the Board OF sinking-Fund
commissioners call a meeting for the pllr-
pose OF examining and receiving or reject
ing the bonds. Ii was understood that this
delay was caused on account OF disagree
ment between the members OF the Board; !;
and 1t was given out that Mr.. Reveley.
State Treasurer. arl hitherto favorer Of
the Kendall Company's work, had
seen cause to hesitate In accepting
the work. His objections were said
10 be based upon the fact that the
Kendall Company had agreed that their
work should be received by the Stock En-
change, Of New York, and up to this time
this had not been done. The facts in this
connection are that the Board OF Governors
Of the New York Stock Exchange have Il
subcommittee to whom such matters are
referred. This committee have unani-
mously agreed to accept KendalPs work,
but owing to the fact that majority OF
the Board Of Governors are away from
New York taking their summer vacation,
a meeting Of the same could not be held IA
yet. or course this gives time to the enc
mics OF Kendall, and they will utilize 1t to
AZ Ia nj hat. t...I Il t1,n II
ancc Of the bonds. TO offset this, it is I'M
derstood that the Kendall Company have
agreed not to charge for their work unless
it is accepted on the stock exchanges, and
it is said that with this assurance 4 number
OF the Board are satisfied and that meet
ing Of the Sinking-Fund Commissioners
will be held to-day, at which this express
sion Of opinion will be recorded officially.
This done, the work Of funding will at
once commence, and the much-talked-of
Kendall Company and Sinking-Fund
Board will, for time at least, be allowed
to rest from public discussion.

s The Kewanee Bank Robbery.

CHICAGO, August 30-Edward N.
Welch, who was arrested three or
four days ago at McDonough, New
York, for robbing the First National
Bank of Kewanee, Illinois, passed
through this city. this. evening en-
route for Kewanee, in charge of the
detectives who arrested him The
for the press were not al>
lowed to see him. But at the de
tective agency, which has charge of
this case, it is said he made con
fession which, in effect, is that DR..
J. S. Scott, of st. Louis, but for
merly resident of Kewanee, planed
the robbery, though he took no dir
rect part in it. That Pratt, the
acting cashier of the bank, was party
to it, and that insteap of
a large sum of gold missing, being
carried away in the valise with the
other money, it was Pratt himself
who carried it off, previous to the
day when he (Welch) and his COM
panions locked Pratt and Miss Har-
ris in the vault and carried away the
remainder, mostly in paper money.
Welch refuses to give the name of
the man who helped him in the job,
but the detectives are confident they
will get the right man. Welch says
DR.. Scott introduced him to Pratt,
and that some time ago Pratt paid
check drawn on the bank by Welch.
When it was discovered the payment
was thought to be the result of
Pratt's ignorance. Welch had 30
money in the bank. Scott is said to
be chiefly known in Kewanee as a
poker player. The agency has re-
ceived advices to-day of the arrest of
Scott in st. Louis. He is to be
brought here.
