JOHN BARDsLET-GIDEoN W. MARSH.
~On the same day that his disappearance
becams known, John Bardsley, city treas
urer of Philadelphia, caused another SEN
sation by resigning his Office. This action
was the direct outcome Of the ruin of the
Keystone bank, which was the depository
of large amount of city and state funds.
In statement to the public BardSley e1-
planned that in common with hundreds Of
other depositors he was caught in financial
crash which he was wholly unable to fore
see, and which when seen he was unable to
avert. He made an assignment of all his
property with the view of protecting the
rights of the city and state. There was
over 500, 900 of city funds in the bank, and
Z $3.50, 900 belonging to the state. Mr.. Bards-
ssiey'ss bondsmen, who are liable to the ex-
tent of 100000 stand ready to meet their
. obligations when called upon.
Bardsley has been a prominent figure in
Philadelphia politics for twenty years, and
has held several municipal offices. He was
born near Manchester, England, in Sep
teuher, 1886, and came to America with
Rlllg Parents when five years old. They lived
in Delaware until lS49, when they moved
to the Quaker City. Going into business
when very young he made rapid progress,
and became owner of the Bradford mills,
in Germantown, in 1872. He was well
fitted for political life, being u fluent
speaker, a good parliamentarian and a
master of city finances. \ committee OF
experts were set to work on his books to
ascertain the exact amount of loss the city
and state will incur, and what steps are
necessary to protect their interests. AS
result of their investigations BarQSley was
arrested.

A great many sensational features sur
rounded the recent failure of the Keystone

more excitement than the fight of Gideon
W. Marsh, president of the wrecked insti-
tuition. He was under $50. GOO hail, and the
trial Of himself and Assistant Cashier Law
renee was in progress. When Marsh's
name was called in court he did not re-
spond, and investigation disclosed that he
had realized on all his available property,
and in company with his wife had left for
parts unknown. His bail was forfeited
and his bondsmen made every effort to dis
cover his whereabouts. Detectives were
dispatched in all directions in search of
him. Some of his friends thought that the
strain of his troubles proved too much for
him, and that he would voluntarily turn

artists in our house, and are able TO sell
a picture cheaper than anybody else,

Jesse Richards, aged %, who came
here from Pittsburgh, to take the agency
Of the Remington typewriter, and who
started the West Virginia school OF
shorthand and typewriting aiewmonths
ago, committed suicide in his room at
the Grant house, on Main street, satur-
day afternoon about two o'clock. lie
first fred three shots into his head just
behind the right car, and these not be-
ing fatal he at once seized razoF and
cut his throat from ear to ear. Mr., Fl.
i. Parrot, who occupies the adjoining
room. heard the shots, and going TO
Richards room, found it locked. An
entrance was effected by q door leading
from Mr.. PARROTS room, against when
wardrobe had been pushed. when
this was removed and the door opened,
the poor victim OF his own rash act was
found lying in aApool Of blood, shock
ing sight. Life was not quite extinct.
Dr.. Spragg was summoned at once. but
the man was dead before lie arrived.
Coroner Phillips was summoned, and
after an examination rendered verdict
Of death by suicide Friend 4 Son took
charge ofthe body and kilograms were
sent TO the dead mans friends at Pitts
bufch and Phillipsburg.
The general theory is that bad health
was responsible for the deed, although
perhaps business troubles had some
thing 10 do with it. Mr.. A. n. Martin,
Of Pittsburgh, under whom Mr.: Rich
ards was sub.agent, was here Friday
evening settling up with him, and he
had intended to so to Pittsburgh Sat
urday. His school in the Reilly block
was well patronized, and he seemed to
be doing prosperous business gener-
ally. He was a rather quiet, but still
genial young man, and was the last man
whom those who knew him would sus-
pect OF contemplating suicide.
Coroner Phillips yesterday received
the following telegram from Mr.. Rich
