CASHIER CRESSON.

He systematically Robbed the Tradesmen's
National Bank of Conshohocton, Pa, of
Funds Supposed to Aggregate Over Eighty
Thousand Dollars.
YOUNGSTOWN, Pa, Nov. 1.-The defal-
cation of VIM. Henry Cresson, cashier
of the Tradesmen's National Bank Of
Conshohocken, proves to be more seri-
GUS and more complicated affair than
was first supposed. 1t was said by Of
ficials yesterday afternoon that the de-
felt would probably exceed $50, 600.
One of Cresson's methods for taking the
concerns money without exciting sus-
picion was to discount notes on which
he had forged the Endorsements and
pocket the proceeds. Until the amount
of these notes is known it will be inn
possible to state the extent of the
shortage, and it may be months before
accurate figures can be ascertained.
One of Cresson's bondsmen is John
Wood, his father-in-law, who is presi-
dent of the bank. The fact that Cres-
son was operating on borrowed capital
is shown in a Judgment for 5000 held by
William Robertson, of Philadelphia,
former janitor, for money loaned him
over eight years ago. His properties
are heavily mortgaged, and much of his
stock assigned as collateral, Cresson's
bond is for $4,000, and the sureties are
good for the amount.

THE MONTANA MATTER.

Present Status OF the Canvass OF the voto
in Silver Bow County-A Decision and
an AppeaI-A Question of Right.
HELENA, Mont, Oct. 31.-A decision
was rendered in the Silver Bow election
case this morning, the canvassing board
being ordered to count the votes cast in
the Tunnel precinct for McHatton.
Counsel for Hall, of the canvassing
board, filed notice of appeal and asked q
stay of proceedings until the case could
be brought before the Supreme Court.
Shortly after the notice of appeal had
been given, C. T. Twin, the Democratic
member of the board, filed an affidavit
setting forth that he is satisfied without
the appeal of the case.
Hall, the Republican member, says he
is not satisfied with the courts decision,
and wants the appeal. Jack, the third
member is out of the Territory. The
question before the court is whether the
minority of the board has right to APP
peal, while his colleague, represent
ing the same voters, refuses to do so.
The State Canvassing Board met to-
day and commenced the canvassing of
votes. The returns include those from
Silver Bow, which arrived this after
noon. Acting on the decision of the
court, the county clerk included in the
returns the votes cast in the Tunnel
precinct.

A Trust COMPANY Begins Busines
Taxing Witness Fees.

Judge Thayer, of the United States
District Court at st. Louis, has rendered
decision in the case of Thomas B.
Sims VS.. Henrietta De S. Schultz, which
affects the question of mileage fees for
witnesses who reside more than one
hundred miles distant. The effect of
his ruling is that the fees can not be
taxed against the losing party unless it
can be shown that the witness evidence
was necessary, and if it can not be so
shown. then the fees must be taxed
against the party at whose request the
summons was issued. Where the mile
age is less than one hundred miles, the
losing party must pay the cost. The de-
cision is important in that the cost has
heretofore been assessed upon the defeat
ed litigant.
