ST. LOUIS, May 29.-Bank President
BrurOn and Mrs. Steele are still in Gus
tody, and will remain here until an officer
comes from Hot Springs for them. While
at police headquarters they were search
ed and less than $1,000 were found upou
their persons. 1t is said that President
Bruron shipped trunk from
Hot Springs before leaving there
to some place in Illinois, and it is sus-
pected that it contains large amount of
money taken from the bank. Officers are
trying to trace it.
President Bruron says that Mrs. Steel
is his step-sister, and is in no way con-
cerned in hisbank affairs, but the KEY to
a cipher which was found on him clearly
shows that it was designed to be used
by them in case they were separated. 1t
indicates that their departure together
from Hot Springs were Drearranged.
