Cashier OF a Rome, N. ", Bank
an EmbeZzler.
ROME, N. Y. Dee. 19.-The greatest
surprise Rome has had: in many years
was caused by the news that John E.
Bielby. the cashier of the Central Ma
tional bank, was a defaulter in the sum
OF S27, 900. The shortage in the accounts
was first suspected about two weeks ago
by National Bank Examiner Van Krau-
ken, of Schenectady, who visited the
institution at that time. Monday last
he Unexpectedly reappeared and con-
stinued his investigation and made the
above discovery. ''
Bielby admitted that he had taken
about S27. 7.O00 and says that he specu-
lated in stocks, was caught in a down
ward market, and took the bank funds
to recover himself. Most of these funds
were also lost.
Samuel Gillette. the teller Of the
bank, who is also the mayor Of Rome,
disappeared Monday evening. and his
whereabouts are not known by his wife.
Bielby, however, says no one is at fault
besides himself, and that Gillette had
nothing to do with the defalca-
ton. Bielby's method of covering
up the defalcations, which have
extended over about year and a half,
was to receive funds from depositors
and conceal the record OF such receipts
from the bank examiner, making the
liabilities of the bank seem to be less
than they really were. This was car
ried ont mainly by means OF certificates
of deposit. The bank is secured by
Bielby's bond for $40, ,0O0and securities
he owns in New York to the amount of
| 5000. These securities will be turned
over to the bank.

VEST CHAMPIONS SUGAR.
Making Vigorous Efforts to Call
UP the DifferentiaIs RepeaI Bill.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator Vest
was engaged the greater part of today
IN trying to find an opening for the re-
vival OF his effort to get up the bill
striking out the differential duty on re-
fined sugar. He is not satisfied with the
adverse result of his former trial, and is
now quoted as saying that he wants an
other opportunity to test the pleasure
Of the senate on this proposition. The
outlook for an early move in this direc-
tion is not very good, for it is understood
that Senator 1urpIe, when he shall con-
clude his speech on Nicaragua, will be
followed by Senator Morgan, who will
also probably talk at length.in reply. In
view of this state OF affairs 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Vest is becoming some
what doubtful as to whether he will find
the opportunity which he seeks before
the Christmas holidays. If the oppOr-
runltY presents itself, however, there is
little doubt that lie will take advantage
of it.

the deceased doctor, Mrs. Cynthia Hat
field and Margaret Magruder, of Macon
county. Missouri. and six orphan
neDhewS and nieces living in Oregon,
Washington state and California.
The case has been one OF peculiar
interest. and has been desperately
fought by both sides. The trial has
been very costly to the defense. DR..
H. c. Fraker was physician with a
moderate practice. At Excelsior
Springs, Mo-. July 10, 1898, while on
fishing trip IN Missouri, he slipped
from the river bank and was
drowned. Not the least trace of
him could be found, and his
complete disappearance being SO ex-
ceptonal. several of the insurance
companies refused 10 pay the policies
held by him. 1t was asserted 1t was a
conspiracy to defraud, and that the doc

ST. JOHNS, n. B., Dec. 1S.-The cot
tOn-laden steamer Oakfield, Capt.
Flowers, from Galveston Nov. 26, via
Newport News for Liverpool. made this
port this morning with her cargo in
No. 2 hold on fire. The existence of the
fire was at first realized Saturday night,
when the steamer was about 400 miles
south Of Cape Race. On Sunday night
matches were taken off, when it was
found that the fire was burning so
ficrcely that it would be impossible to
fight it safely with the Oak fields ap-
pliances. The steamer was headed for
this port and the run here was ac-
complished safely, the fire being pre-
vented from spreading by the constant
efforts Of the crew. Steam and water
were being forced into the compart-
ment where the fire is located. When
the cotton is thoroughly saturated it
