Banker Smith Missing.

ATLANTA, Ga, June 1.-THE
entire detective force OF the South
ern States is on the lookout for
Banker John NJ. Smith, whose alb
sence from his home here Is 80 mys-
terious. Smith has been cashier
Of the Moody & Brewster private
bank, besides doing a money lend
ing business on his own account.
He had collected several thousand
dollars when last seen, which was
Thursday OF last week, aud the
theory Of the detectives is that he
has been lured into the suburbs
and made away with. His books
show a discrepancy Of only the
amount he had on his person the
last time he was seen. Moody &
Brewster, however, offered a re-
ward for him. He is well known
in business circles, is married and
has pretty home. Every indica-
ton points to foul play. Discrip-
tions have been sent to Chicago,
st. Louis, where it is thought he
may have gone.
