Cause Sensation in Old Colony Railroad
Circles

Boston, September 26.-President
Charles F. Choate at a meeting of the
stockholders of the Old Colony Railroad
today announced that since the distribu-
ton of the annual report discrepancy
had been discovered in the accounts of
Treasurer John w. Washburn. Accord
ing to the treasurer's report there were
800, 900 in cash in the treasury, but it had
been found instead that security stocks
stocks and bonds purchased by the COM
pany's money, represented Part of this
cash. The purchase was unauthorized.
The treasurer's office has been vacated
and Washburn has made an assignment
of all his outside property for the benefit
of the corporation. Choate said it can
not be told how much the loss will be.
These securities are not all worth their
nominal value, which was represented
to be so much cash. 1t will not affect
the property or the dividends. The mat
ter will be further investigated. Presi-
dent Chas. p Clark of the New York,
New Haven & Hartford railroad, takes
thef place of the late Fred l.. Ames
as director.
After the adjournment of the stock
holders meeting the directors held a
meeting of protracted length. President
Choate was reelected, but no election
for vice. president was made. Benjamin
B. Torrey was elected treasurer and E.
G. Parker was reelected clerk.

Inhabitants having fled into the interior
