A HEAVY ASSESSMENT,
Stockholders Must Pay for the De-
falcatiOn of BOOkkeeper Seely.


NEW YORK, November 27.-The atten-
tion Of Vice President Pease and Director
Stout of the Shoe and Leather Bank was
called today to a statement said to have
been made by Bank Examiner Kimball
that he had found $4,000 Of bad loans, in
addition to the Seely defalcation. This
Mr.. Pease vigorously denied. and he was
opsitive that Mr.. Kimball had never made
such a statment.
Mr.. Pease and Cashier Van Week ad-
mitted that in his examination of the
banks securities and collaterals Examiner
Kimball had thrown out some securities
because of temporary depreciation, but
this, said Mr.. Van Week, was the only
warrant for a statement such as had been
alluded to.
The directors held a regular meeting at
1870 o'clock today. At its conclusion Df-
rector Beach sanctioned the announcement
that assessment against capital stock
to make good Bookkeeper Seely's defal-
cation would be 25 per cent. --
Coroner Schneck of Queens county, has
refused burial permit for the intermeIt
of Frederick Bakers body on Wednesday.
In the meantime. however, ARRANGEMENTS
for the funeral of the alleged confederate
Of EmbezZler Seely are going on. No au-
topsy has been held on the body Of the
dead lawyer. Coroner Schneck says he
will not insist upon an autopsy now, he-
cause recent disclosures make it certain
In his mind that Baker had cOnmitted sui
eide, and autopsy could reveal any
thing that would make this point more
conclusive.

Nautical Experts Wanted.

The civil service commission has held
two examinations for nautical expert in
the photographic office without succeed
ing in securing eligibles enough to fill the
vacancies. Another examination for this
purpose will therefore be held on December
8. The commission, on consultation with
the photographic office, has decided to
make the examination somewhat less tech
nical than it has heretofore been, SO that
persons who have acquired a moderate
knowledge of nautical science will be able
to pass 1t, provided they are found to be
otherwise qualified. The subjects Of the
examination will be letter writing, pure
mathematics, physical geography, nautical
definitions and navigation.
The salary Of the position Is $1,000 q
year. Application blanks may be secured
by writing to the civil service commission,
and arrangements may be made to take
the examination In Washington, D. c., or
In some Of the larger cities where the
commission has competent boards Of exam

An Important Ruling.

The first auditor Of the treasury has Just
made ruling which will overthrow the
custom that has been in vogue for many
years In the government printing office of
allowing pay to employees for time lost on
account Of injuries received while on duty
The case comes to point on a voucher for
six days pay to a man who was hurt in
June. The auditor, in rejecting the vouch-
er, stated that there was no law to cover
the payment and called upon Mr.. Benedict
to refund the money that had been paid
out for the six days leave. There are now
half dozen more cases Of a similar char
acter awaiting adjustment. The pub
lie printer, 1t is believed, will ask Congress
for legislation to remedy the apparent de-
iciency in the present law.

THE U. p. GUESSED WRONG.
Gear and Princess Not Married in the
Cathedral of Kazan.

The United Press furnished its subscri-
bers with bogus account Of the marriage
Of the czar yesterday, evidently having
nothing to start upon except the bulletin
furnished to the early editions Of the af-
ternoon papers Of London. With this to
go ahead with, a mass of padding was sent
out to the United Press papers, claiming
to be the report of the ceremonies fur
nished by st. Petersburg correspondent
but, unfortunately, the United Press cable
manufacturers located the marriage in the
wrong place.
They described the wedding ceremony us
having taken place in the Cathedral Of
Kazan, while, as a matter of fact, as cor
rectly and exclusively reported by the
Associated Press, the marriage took place
In the chapel Of the Winter Palace. The
newly married couple did call at the Cathe-
dral of Kazan on their way back to the
Antichkoff Palace, as described in the AS
ISOLATED Press dispatches, but it was only
for the purpose of invoking the blessing of
the Almighty after their marriage and in
order to kiss the miraculous image of Our
Lady of KaZan.
The newly married couple then resumed
their journey back to the AntichkofY Pal
ance, where the dowager czarina had al
ready preceded them.
