HOW IT WAS DONE
Trnmpbour Tells of the Ut'
 ster Bank Wrecking.
STEALING FOR TWENTY YEARS
He Was Led Into the Orime by 0strander,
 Who, He Says, is Slick"

Ostrander Used tho Money In Specuia- tion--A Number of Others Implicated Cashier Van Nostrand Accused of Help ing to Conceal the Thefts--Trumpbour Does Not Know Whether Anyone Else Besides Ostrander Stole Any Money The Total Shortage $513, 3,oOO--Quiet Now in Kingston.
 KINGSTON, N. Y., Oct. 7.-M. T. TrumpboUr made full confession of his crime yesterday. He talked fully and freely, giving in detail the manner in which he and Treasurer Ostrander plum dered the Ulster County Savings Insti- tuition and covered up their operations for more than 20 years.
 He throws most of the blame on Os- trander's shoulders. It was Ostrander, he says, who got most of the So13, OOG stolen from the bank. He also impli- cates several others.
 Ostrander had been stealing three years before Trumpbour found it out. When remonstrated with, Ostrande1 pleaded for the sake of his wife and children not to be exposed, and un- folded plan by which the dedication could be made good.
 "Ostrander is one of the finest book keepers 1 ever knew" said Trumpbour "His plan was to make false transfers from the depositors' ledgers to the trial balance sheets"
 ''Of course it was was almost impossi- ble to detect the fraud. His scheme, which was simple, though very in genious, amounted to nothing more than representing to the examiner that oul deposits were smaller than they actually were.
 ''When Ostrander unfolded his plan tc me I at first rebelled against becoming a party to it, but at last 1 yielded Ostran- der promising to make up the shorta ge as soon as he could. He did not make il up, but On the contrary continued taking more and more of the banks money and losing it in gambling operations.
 "Yes, I continued year after year tt falsify the depositors' balances. Ot course was fool to do it. l was not the only one, however, whom he used il covering up his dedication. Alfred Var Nostrand the chief bookkeeper, Twas jus as guilty as 1, if not more so. He also used the banks money, and at the time of my arrest his account was overdrawn for far greater amount than mine. 1 don't remember the exact amount, but it was over s, 900.
 "Andrew Scott, collector for the bank was also fully aware of the condition O. its affairs and Ostrander's deficit. speak the absolute truth when say tha I had no idea the shortage was anything like S513, GOO. Van Nostrand, wh ped make up the trial balances, mus nave made many false transfers that knew nothing about. It may be that h worked exclusively under Ostrander' direction, or it may be that he was GOV ering a separate dedication.

 Over the Teeceivership.
 KINGSTON, N. Y., Oct 1.-The scenes of turmoil and chaos which have reigned are now transformed into quiet calm ness and the usual tranquility and order are restored. One can scarce imagine such a complete transformation in st brief a period of time. Wall street, the principal thoroughfare, on which is located the courthouse and the insolvent institution, which Monday was filled with an excited mob, is nov almost de- serted
 There have been no new developments as regards the amount of stolen funds Bank Examiner Judson says it will take abDut two weeks more to complete the iuvc: 1 ise.liou. In his opinion the total Gcf.tI.arion will not exceed the sum first 4,p0ytel l.

IS SHE HIS WIDOW?
A Woman Who Says She Was
 Millionaire Aliens Wife.
CAME TO HIS GRAVE AT NIGHT.
Aliens Sister Denounces the Claimant
 as an Impostor and Adventures.

The Millionaire PopularIy Supposed to
 Have Been Unmarried The Woman
 Said to Have Proved Conclusively That
 She Was Aliens Legal Wife-She Wept
 Over the Grave of the Deceased Until Guards Drove Her Away.
 AUGUSTA, Me, Oct. 7.-When E. o. Allen, the millionaire publisher, died on Aug 9 last he was supposed to be an un- married man and his vast fortune was being divided among his relatives until 8 very recent date, when a woman appeared with papers in support of her declaration that she was the wife of the dead millionaire.
 The manner of her appearing added to the mystery of the case. Two guards were stationed at the grave to frustrate any attempt to steal the body. On the night following the funeral woman heavily yelled appeared at the grave at about midnight. She threw herself npon | the grave and wept bitterly for about half an hour. The two guards, thinking she was member of the family, did not interfere, and she was allowed to de part unmolested.
 On the following night the woman again appeared at the same hour and wept over the grave. This time she was challenged by the guard as she was about to depart. She attempted to run, but fell and was caught.
 Her veil was torn by the fall and she | was seen to be beautiful woman. She demanded in French an explanation of her detention. The guards told her what their instructions were. Then the l woman said she was relative of the dead man and had right to be there. l She was allowed to go.
 The next day the guards told MT. Al lens sister of the episode, and she de- nounced the woman as an impostor. Since then the woman has sought Miss Allen, and it is said, has proved con- clusively to the latter that she was the legal wife of the late publisher. Mem bers of the family refuse to talk about l the matter.
 Oscar Holway, one of the admins trators of the Allen estate, says, how ever, that no woman has made any claim upon him for a share in the Allen estate as Allen s widow.

ALL HOPE ABANDONED.
No Possibility of Finding the Entombe,
 Miners Alive at GIencarbon.


 PoTTsvILLE, Pa, Oct 7.-All hope has been given up of reaching the entom bed miners alive. The work of the rescuing party is very slow on account of the treacherous condition of the roof, which threatens to fall at any moment. Super intendent Kelly, who was injured in the cave-in Saturday, is directing his men, in spite of the fact that his bruises give him much pain. Michael Grant, who had his skull crushed in, is dying.
 The relatives and friends of the en- tombed men refuse to give up hope and still finger about the mouth of the slope. Their faces light up eagerly when any one emerges from the mine, but a sim pie shaking of the head is sufficient to make them relapse into condition of watching and waiting.
 The coroner yesterday impannelled a jury and began an investig gation into the disaster. The body of one of the victims was viewed, but the jury reserved it's verdict and was continued until after the bodies of the other six men are recov- cred. The jury will also investigate the rumor that the Philadelphia 6 Reading Coal and Iron Company, the operators of the colliery, neglected the usual precau- tions to prevent such an accident.

POOL ROOMS RAIDED.
An Effort to Break Up the Business-COm-
 missions q Myth.


 NEW YoRM, Oct. 7.-The police raided the pool rooms yesterday and arrested thirty-f five persons interested or employed in the rooms This action on the part of the authorities was the result of con sultation between Inspector Byrnes and District Attorney Nicoll.
 Hitherto under existing judicial de- cisions the pool rooms have been enabled to do business on the supposition that the transactions were on a commission basis and that orders given in the rooms would be telegraphed to agents at the track where they would be executed. Of course it was well known that none of the Fmoney taken in at the rooms found it's way to the track, but this was difficult to prove,
 The Inspector tried plan whereby he expects to get several convictions and thus break up the pool room business. He had men at the track and others in all the pool rooms and they accurately noted the time the horses started at the track and up to what time the pool rooms took bets on the races
 In this way it is hoped to prove money was taken in on races at the rooms after the horses had started in the differ ent events. and thus show that the com mission business is a myth.
