Explosion at Station of an Underground
Railway Causes Injury to Number of
People.
. LONDON, April GA tremendous ex-
plosion occurred on the underground
railway last evening as train filled
with men from the city was making its
usual stop at the Aldersgate station.
The glass roof of the station was
blown out and the platform was
strewn with debris, Many gas lights
were eXtinguished and the station was
left in semi-darkness. A general panic
ensued. When quiet had been restored
it was found that flrst-class coach
had been completely wrecked and its
occupants were MANNED and bleeding.
Ten of the injured were in precari-
Gus condition and were removed to
hospitals. A number of persons who
were standing on the platform were
also hurt Much of the wreckage was
hurled across the station.
The cause of the explosion is not
known, but it is believed to have been
the result of an accumulation of gas
which became ignited in some way.
Many persons, however, believe that
the disaster was not due to accident,
but was caused by the explosion of a
bomb which had been placed in the
station to wreck it,

A CLEAN SWEEP.

Cashier Cassin Appears to Have Taken
Every Cent In that Atlanta Bank.
ATLANTA, Ga, April 27.-Harry A.
Cassin, cashier of the Georgia Savings,
Loan and Banking Co., who confessed
to being defaulter to the extent OF
1000, and whose friends had agreed
to pay up his'shortage to keep him out
of Jail, is behind the bars of a prison.
AT meeting Monday of the directors
of the institution, a brief examination
of the books was made and resulted in
the discovery that the bank, which
was supposed to be one of the most
prosperous in the state, had barely a
cents worth of assets. Instead of the
shortage being $45, 900, it will be sew
eral times that sum, and instead of
Cassin being the bearer of the entire
guilt it is now believed that at least
one other official will soon share cell
with him.
When President G. V. Gress, of the
bank, and the directors agreed with
Judge Hillyer, Cass,ns father-in-law,
w hS Sooi VhC SuOl odB z, OhS ih"OVNA
was believed to be settled. AS the
amount of the defalcation increased,
however, Morgan Cress, son of the
banks president, went into court with
an application for receiver for the
concern. Judge Lumpkin set next
Saturday as the date for the hearing.
At this Judge Hillyer withdrew and
Cassin was arrested. Application was
then made for receiver for the United
States Bond Co., of which Gross was
president and Cassin cashier, and the
court appointed them. The company
has over 400 agents in different cities.
Several hundred thousand dollars
worth of its bonds are held by people
in various cities
