CHARGE AGAINST MDONALD.
WHAT THE MADISON SQUARE BANKS IN
yESTIGATION SHOWS.
HE BORROWED $1,000 on THE BANK's CoLLAx.
ERAL WITHOUT THE KNOWLEDGE OF
THE OTHER DIRECTORS.


Another instance Of the way In which the MadS-
son Square Bank suffered at the hands OF certain
directors came to light yesterday through the
investigation Of the banks books In progress In
the District Attorneys Office. In June last the
bank needed money but the directors did not want
the financial world to know this. Therefore. through
President Blaut, they authorized Ronald T. Nc
Donald the director against whom the charge
of forgery has been brought, to borrow $4,000 on
certain securities which were given to him. These
had previously been deposited with the State Trust
Company.
Mcdonald took the collateral to Ladenburg, Thai
mann Co., the bankers, and borrowed the money
in his own name. The securities were worm
great deal more than 5000, 80 Mcdonald had no
dificulty in getting that sum- He deposited 1t with
the st. Nicholas Bank which cleared for the Madi-
son Square Bank TO the credit OF the uptown In.
stitution.
Mcdonald was at that time president OF the
Municipal Ice Manufacturing Company. Of New
Orleans. which owed the bank ls 5000 He He, hmsf's
telephoned to the bank that he wanted 20 pay .he

somehow had quietly won their confidence. On the
night I'm question the lads did not return to their
homes at the usual time and the next thing thae
was known that they had left Baltimore on
New York train, and that Vreeland had gone with
them.
Late the same night Vreeland and the boys APP
peared at the apartment house No. l2S West Twen-
ty-frst-st., in this city. Vreeland said that hts
name George Ray. that he was an actor ful-
filling a New-YOrk engagement and that the lads
were his brothers. He paid for weeks rent.
Then for the next nine days. the boys saw New.
York, accompanied by their guide and mentor, and
Martin. bubbling over with enthusiasm, wrote =
York. and saying that he and Eschbach were going
to be actors. His mother wrote to the police, who
arrested the two lads.
Two hours later Vreeland came to the house and
was arrested by Detectives Laney and Sullivan
At the Jefferson Market Police Court Nreeland was
remanded a charge of abduction The boys Will

The making Of entertainments around the

to-day. and the work was pushed with the
greatest activity under the protection OF the
Guns of the forts The Riffians kept up
deuuuory fire upon those employed on the

Tonight the bombardment Of the Rifiian

much activity. 1t will be repeated nightly. ~
number of convicts and volunteers went out Oh
Melilla in a hunt for Rifians. and succeeded IN
killing five of them.
THE military authorities have discovered
more deposits of arms and ammunition intehoeo
TO be struggled to the Rifians. Twenty arrests
have been made. All the prisoners Will be tried
by court-martai

in the firing. The Rlffians return the nre put

The casualties on the Spanish side have been
slight
Paris Nov. 15.-The correspondent in Madrid
Of the Temps informs that paper that some
of the tribesmen in Morocco. presumably the
Riffians. a few days ago set upon caravan
conveying imperial treasure. The guards We're ere
put to fight, and the robbers secured $4,000
and made off into the mountains with the
money. When the Sultan learned of his loss
he was furiously angry, and threatened to pun
ish the thieves if it took all the resources OF
his dominions to do it. 1t is probable that
the tribesmen wanted the money to procure
arms and supplies for carrying on their warfare
with the Spaniards.
Another dispatch to the Temps from Madrid
GAYS that the agents of the Spanish Transat
entic Steamship Company have been arrested
on the charge Of being implicated in furnish

A RUMOR OF SECESSION DENIED.

The announcement made by the London Times
Yesterday to the effect that the State of Per-
nambuco In Brazil, had probably withdrawn from
the government of Peixoto, was learned yesterday
to be without foundation. The Times" 1t was
said had information from a private source that
the Governor of Pernambuco had ordered that
all telegraphc communication between that State
and Rio Janero be stopped. This news led to
the belief that Pernambuco had declared against
Peixoto. 49,
In regard to this matter. Minister Mendonca
made a strong denial yesterday He said that he
had the best OF information on which to deny such
a rumor and that cable message which he
had received from Rio Janeiro by the way Of
Pernambuco yesterday morning. IL Pernambuco
had ordered telegraphic communication with
Rio to cease Rio certainly could not send
messages through Pernambuco. Indeed" he said
''Peixoto has no fear of any Of the States with
drawing their support from the Republic to join
