ALLIED TO ROB A BANK
Clerk and Customer Gel $4,000 by
Means Of False Accounts.
one SKIPS AWAY; THE OTHER TAKEN
The American Exchange National Bank Of
New York Is the Loser In This Lat
est Form Of Dedication.

New YoRK, April 6.-Since January 6
one OF the bookkeepers in the American
Exchange National bank, at Cedar street
and Broadway, has been missing. Since
about that time the bank officers have
known that he had been robbing the cor
poration. A few days ago an investiga.
ton OF accounts had progressed suffi
iently to show that one OF the bank q
customers was an accessory with the
clerk in the thefts. Yesterday this
customer was arrested and locked up in
Ludlow street Jail
The absent clerk is Hagen. He ia
about thirty-three years of age, and lie
the son of DIR. G. W Hagen, a physician
of Newark. His father knows nothing
OF the young mans whereabouts, not
having seen him since the latter part oil
January.
The name Of the bank customer was
given az q. <. Bartholomew, but no &C.
curate description of his business nor in.
formation as to his office or house ad
dress could be obtained.
President Dumont Clarke having gone
from the bank for the day, Cashier Burns
said for print that they expected to
capture the bookkeeper in few days.
THE bank" he said, has lost in round
figures $4,000. The steal has been 60
ing on for nearly year, or since we had
our last change about OF bookkeepers. 1t
is our custom to change the bookkeepere
from one set Of books to another to pre-.
vent just what has occurred.
Several weeks ago, when we made
our last change, discrepancies in one Of
the ledgers were discovered, and the
bookkeeper who had charge OF that set oil
books disappeared. We found upon in.
vestigation that he had been working in
conjunction with Bartholomew, who was
customer of the bank, and that we had
been robbed to the extent Of $33, OOO."

A COLLEGE LAWSUIT.
Harvard Brings Action Against Val

Harvard Brings Action Against Yale's
Physical Director.
New HAVEN, April 3.-Papers have
been served on DR.. ]. w. Seaver, phys
ical director of Yale University, and
John G. Kebabian, local importer OF
Turkish goods, in suit brought by the
president and fellows Of Harvard College
to recover $40 on q bond of $500 given
by DIR. Seaver and Kebabian, as a guar
antee that the tuition and other bills of
Sarkis Kebabian while student at Har-
ward, would be paid. The suit itself is a
trivial one, but it is understood on excel.
lent authority that the defense in the
case will be OF what might be called q
surprising nature, inasmuch as it will
substantially charge the authorities at
Harvard with having lured young Keba
bian away from Yale by offering him
fattering inducements which pever were
fulfilled. Sarkis Kebabian was a student
at Yale in 1890. He was of slender
means, and learned that Harvard offered
greater advantages in the way OF schol-
arships to such as he than could be OBJ.
tanned at Yale. He wrote to Harvard
and, 1t is claimed, was assured that il he
maintained certain standard scholar.
ship would be awarded him. He entered
Harvard in 1892 and took high stand,
but the scholarship was not awarded
him, and he left Harvard owing $40 for
tuition, the basis of the suit. This he
refused to pay, claiming that he had full.
filled his part OF an implied contract.
The case is returnable today.

Three bills are now being considered
looking to the collection of 500, OOO, 900
indebtedness of the Central and Union
Pacific railroad companies by the govern

The Kansas wheat Crop.

The Kansas City Star prints special
dispatches from many points in Kansas
xiving the condition of the wheat crop.
The reports leave no room to doubt that
the wheat plant on a large area is in a
critical condition and in urgent need OF
rain. Fully 5000, 900 acres out OF the L..
SOC, 900 in the state are suffering increas-
ing impairment with every day of the
present dry and windy weather. That
part OF the state west OF Sumner county
