Van Loan Is Gone for Good.

JERSEY CITY, July 9.-The police and the officers of the Second National bank have given up the idea that John Van Loan, the bookkeeper who ran away last week with $10,0OO of the banks cash, would return and give himself up, and said they were pretty we'll satisfied that he had succeeded in cross ing the line into Canada. The evidence against Coykendall, Van Loans father-in- law, has been strengthened by a comparison of his check book with the ledger that Van Loan had charge of, and with the teller's books, which he also had charge of at times. They show, it is said, that every time Van Loan raised the amount of Coykendall's de- posit, in order to keep the amount on deposit and the amount drawn out balanced, the same amount was entered among the deposits of his check books, thus showing conclusively that there was collision between the two. Coykendall will have an examination before Justice Stilsing today.
