Chief Jackson personally served the

has taken no part in the work yet. the

committee.
The Commercial National bank yester-
day filed suit IN the superior court against
Adolph Krug for two claims, one amount
ing to sos. the other to &. 4i.f0 The
complaint alleges that March s. 1902. Krug
borrowed 5000 from the bank, sos of which
has never been paid. The other claim for
10 is for money borrowed in June,
1893. for period of ninety days.
The movements of Krug after he left
the New Westminster hotel are the subject
of much speculation and many yumors.
but none could be traced to an authentic
source. II was reported that L. ID. Ross,
one of the kid committee, and said to be
borrower from krug, had gone TO Victoria
with John b. Hart. brother OF Lee Hart,
another of the kid committee, to endeavor
TO find Krug Last night the Posr.INrEL-
LsEScER received q dispatch from VAN
couver to the effect that two men from
Seattle were there supposed to be seeking
krug. and several thought they were the
same men.
The Posr-lNTELLIGENcE correspondent
at Vancouver was instructed last night to
learn the identity Of the tw Seattle men
there looking for Krug. Late last night
he reported as follows:
NANcouvER, b. c.. Sept. i3-ISpecial. +
One Is said TO be United States
deputy marshal. The police are re-
ticent and refuse to give particu-
lars. but subordinate said that
ore Of the Seattle detectives had gone to
New Westminster. The other IL ut Hotel
Vancouver registered incog. He is tail,
stout, soft grey hat. square shouidered,
brunette and has a small moustache.
This indicates plainly enough that
Sheriff Woolery and Deputy Marshal
Quiltcr are abe two mysterious men who
are on the trall OF krug.
Where Ross and Hart are Is q matter of
conjecture, rs is also their an xiety TO find
the Ascending cashier.
