Eight hundred workmen employed in the great

is worth general reading. 1t is as follows:

The Treasurer of the Philadelphia
Lodge Short.
PHILADELPHIA Feb. 14.-David r. Hit,
Treasurer of the philadelphia Lodge Of the
Benevolent Protective Order Of Elks. is said
to be about S., 800 short in his accounts.
Mr.. Hit was custodian of the Elks charity
fund, amounting to about $1,000, and it
was his duty to have the money deposited
to the credit of the society with the Fidelity
Trust Company. Yesterday, however, it
was discovered that the Elks' deposit
amounted to only Sl,5l5. Hit promised to
meet the trustees of tho order to-day and
make a full explanation. The order is
composed largely of actors and the dis
closures have ca, sed considerable excite
ment in theatrical circles here. Mr.. Hit is
an insurance broker aud has been Treasurer
of the local lodge of Elks since 1881.
A warrant for Hits arrest was issued
this morning, but it was withdrawn later,
Hit having settled his accounts in full. He
and his friends claim that there was no de-
fault or ong-doing of any kind. He had
collected funds for the Elks and deposited
the funds Of the society along with his own
funds. He settled when the accounts were
balanced
