st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
1t is becoming known that Judge Krum's
affairs were worse involved than at first sup
posed. Mr.. j. NJ. Carpenter, real estate
agent, said to reporter yesterday: There
was a customer of mine-a lady-Tho
owed some money to the old National
Bank of the State of Misso uri. Wanting to
settle up the account as the court had or
dered the receiver to realize on all the availa-
BILE assets, she directed me to sell a certain
piece of property. 1t is not necessary that
you should know her name, as she does not
appear in the transaction. sold the prop
erty for something like $4,000, and de-
ductng the amount of the banks claim l
paid the lady the balance. The debt, think,
was SO, $50 or thereabouts, and on the 18th
day of February paid that sum to Chester
Fl. Krum and took his receipt for it. He
was acting as attorney for Walter S. Johnson,
the bank receiver, and l had no hesitation in
paying the money, which knew ne was au-
thoriZed to recive."
did you learn whether he returned the
money to the receiver?"
Not until after the papers published
Judge Krums disappearance Then Mr.
Johnson came around and inquired what
was doing with the property, holding it so
long, as it might have been sold long ago.
l told him that the property had been dis
posed OF ana MS oollgatlon discharged. In
proof of my statement l showed him Judge
Krum's receipt for the money. That salts
fed him and he went away"
So far as has been published, the last trace
OF Judge Krum was at the Albemarle Hotel,
in New York. He registered there on the
29tn of April. A letter received in the city
leaves little room to doubt but that Judge
Krum sailed for Europe shortly after the
date at which he was at the Albemarle.
This letter refers to the departure of another
person, and from references made the suppo-
sition is drawn by those who have read
them that Judge Krum sailed on the same
steamer

LIGHTNING's WORK.
A Heavy Storm in New York ana Brooklyn
Damage to Property.

New YORK, June Ga terrific rain and
wind storm occurred here this afternoon.
Lightning shattered a number of fag-staffs
in this city and Brooklyn. The residence OF
William Price, of Brooklyn, vas burned
down. Tank No. 25, at the National Storage
Company's oil works, Craven Point,
Jersey City, was also struck. The
tank is fifty feet in diameter
and thirty feet high, but it contained only
about 4,500 barrels of oil. The lightning
passed entirely around the tank, and the
rivets holding the roof were entirely torn
out. The side of the tank was cracked for
distance of seven feet, where the lightning
left it and ran along the connections to the
ground. The oil in the tank was not fired,
although the roof was raised into the
air and the wooden braces in the
interior fred by an explosion
of gas; the roof fell pack almost in the orig
inal position, and thus acted as an extin-
guisher. The oil was considerably lower
than the wood work, and was pumped out
from the bottom. The wood work was COM
pletely destroyed. The tank was one of
seventeen that remained in~the yard after
the recent conhagration, which resulted in
the loss of six lives and the destruction Of
$5O0,0oO worth OF property.
