 town.
 And now they go so far as to-say that the sea serpent has become so frisky and pre- sumptuous as to show his head and large part of his sinuous body in the Connecticut river and as far up the river as Cromwell, near Middletown. The daring of the sea ser pent exceeds belief. Can it be he is medi- tating an ascent as far as Hartford! If so, the insurance agents of the sole capital will have him sure, and the sea serpent may as we'll consider that his fate is sealed. What an acquisition his stuffed hide would be to the already notable possessions of Hartford, a city noted far and wide for its beautiful Capitol, it's fine park, it's handsome public and insurance buildings, it's authors and it's men of national influence. But all these would dwindle into minor importance as drawing card to the millions compared with the sea serpent. But to return to the new sea serpent. It was seen, if natural eyes and mortal men can be believed, in the aforesaid river yesterday morning at o'clock by two men, Colonel Stocking and Silas Sage, while they were in a small boat off Cromwell There were no saloons near by, but had there been it would have
 
 serpent, who, from all accounts, strictly prefers water. The men in the boat suddenly felt if earthquake had struck them and found their craft lifted bodily into the air like egg shell and themselves sprawling in the bottom of the quivering boat. Picking themselves up in dazed state they gazed around and beheld an un- mistakable marine monster fully 100 feet long with it's head ten feet out of water and looking as fearful to contemplate as was the monster which. ..Perseus so valiantly encoun- tered and killed to save the beautiful Andro- meda. The monster was flashing the water into foam and was within twenty feet of them. With yells of fright and despair they pulled for the shore which they reached more dead than alive. Their shouts were heard and as they landed they met Captain Frank Phelps, Mir. Wiltschore and Robert Sawyer to whom they told their story in disjointed manner with faces still blanch- ed with fear and emotion. The serpent, un- conscious of the row he had created, had dis appeared but presently reared his head again as if considering whether to go on up to Hartford or return to the deep, deep sea. It finally disappeared around the bend appar- ently going on desperate bender.

From s5o,Ooo to $25o,ooe Missins

From $5O,OOO to $25O,OOe Missing.
 Thomas F. Plunkett, the president of the Hartford Silk company and treasurer and agent of the Union Manufacturing company, whose disappearance was announced Tues day, is now known to have been defaulter to the amount of from $2OO, 900 to $250, 900. To last evening the directors of the Hartford Silk company had discovered a shortage of $76,000 in his accounts. It was at first thought that this company was the principal sufferer, but Tuesday the directors of the Union company became satisfied that Plunkett had robbed that company, and on, their application Charles M. Beach, of West Hartford, was appointed receiver. This company is very old one, having been chartered in 1919 with a capital stock of S2OO, 900. and has been very prosperous. The Silk company was organized in 1882 with a successful. An effort to raise $10O, 900 work ing capital during the past year failed. The principal men engaged in both com panies are George NJ. Bartholomew, president of the Charter Oak Life Insurance company, and the wealthy Beach family of Hart ford. Plunkett is thought to have fled for India, where he passed
 
 time one of the chief officers of the Bombay police department. He was fast liver, 8 prominent club man in Hartford's leading club, drove a double team and leaves per sonal debts of from $100 to $1, ,006 of money borrowed from friends. He was born in Pittsfield, Mass, and his father was prom inent Democratic politician of Western Mas sachusetts, whose landed estate went to his sons MT. Bartholomew is wealthy man, and the banks in Hartford hold considerable paper of which he is an endorser, but it is thought the banks will not lose much. Last evening it was found that there were only $36 900 unaccounted for in the accounts of the Hartford Silk Manufacturing company. As to the Union Manufacturing company further enquiry reveals as yet nothing lost by it through PluDkett The TariHville property is mortgaged to the Hartford Carpet company for $50, ,O00, New York parties hold 8 second mortgage for $100,000, and another mortgage is made to endorsers of the com pany's paper.
 It cannot be known, until a thorough investigation has been made, how much paper the defaulter raised money on treasurer of the Union company
 The company is in the hands of wealthy and honorable men, and it is not probable that the creditors will suffer. The property is held at a low valuation at $150,000, and on this there is a mortgage of $50, 900. In addition there is valuable stock of goods on hand
 There is difference of opinion in financial circles as to MT. Bartholomew's circumstan- ces. The majority view is that he is abund- antly able to sustain himself. He is a very heavy borrower, and his paper is held large ly in New York and Boston.
