ninety tons of guano for the North Paci-
fc p. & +. Co. The, NJ E. Foster left

enough to give their 500 each to make
up the fund with the least amount of de-
lay, and show the community what
Scotchmen will do when they can.
Any gentlemen wishing for informa-
ton, list of members, copy of constitu-
ton, etc.. can have the same by adj

A CASHIER GONE.
He RObs Osborn DE- Alexander
and Flees to the Sandwich

He Robs Osborn DE- Alexander
" and FIees to the Sandwich
Islands.
On May 9Th Edward E. Coffee, the
bookkeeper and cashier of Osborn q
Alexander, the Market street hardware
firm, left this city for Honolulu. after
having robbed his employers OF $4,000
or more. The day before he made his
sudden departure the firm, convinced
all was not as it should be, expressed
their intentions of employing an expert
to examine their books. This informa-
ton came to the ears of Coffee. The re-
suit was that he did not appear the next
day, and has not been heard from since.
Captain Lees was notified and immedi-
ately detailed Detective Whittier to as
certain the whereabouts of the missing
cashier, who, it is believed, took passage
on the steamship Zealandia, bound for
Australia, which sailed on the day of his
disappearance.
Coffee's associations were that OF the
best. He did not drink to excess, nor is
| he known to have gambled.
| When Mr.. Osborn was seen yesterday
he stated that Mr.. Coffee entered his
employ six years ago, being then
<eighteen years old. CATER being two
years in our service he had gainei the
complete confidence of the firm and he
was promoted to be cashier and book
keeper" Mr. Osborn could not say
how long the thieving had been going
on, but the money was taken from time
to time. An expert was examining the
books, and until his work was complete
it would be impossible to state the
amount OF the shortage.
A visit to 1915 Howard street, where
Coffee lived with his father and mother,
proved that he had not been there since
the day on which he disappeared. His
father stated that he could assign no rea-
son for his sons actions.-[San Francisco
