CASHIER GONE WRONG.
New York Chemical hank Loses Nearly
S4OO, OOO-CashIer Resigns.

&4OO,OOO-Cabnter Resigns
New York, Feb. A. William J.
Quinlan, Jr., cashier of the Chemical
National bank, has resigned his posi-
ton. He acknowledged IN a letter to
the directors that he had loaned $685.
900 of the banks money without
consulting the president and with the
knowledge that the directors would
not approve of the action. He denies
that he profited by the loans.
The Chemical National Bank Is one
of the most prosperous institutions OF
it's kind in the country, and should all
the amount loaned to Mr.. QuinlaD
prove loss, the banks credit would
not be affected.
President Williams of the Chemical
National bank, when shown dis.
patch from st. Louis containing an in
terview with Cradle, IN which the lat
ter said that Mr. Williams had been o
stakeholder in one of his companies
for several years, said: 1T
is wrong for the man to try to mix me
ND in his schemes. 1t is true that
have been connected with one of his
companies, but it was trifing matter,
not more than $1,000 or SO, 1000"
He also admitted the truth Of the
statement that, on Thursday last, the
Chemical National bank had accepted
demand note of SOL, 500 from Ora
BILE, agreeing at the same time not te
press Cradle for the money.
CHICAGO, Feb. 4.-Of Francis Cradle,
who borrowed the bulk of the money
loaned by Cashier Quinlan of the
Chemical National bank in New York,
a morning paper says:
During the last ten years In which
Francis Cradle has been engaged IN
floating the stocks, bonds and mort
cages of his Western enterprise:
among investors in the East, not less
than SO, 600, 900 has been realized.
Cradle had many prominent East

A resident of this town who has lost TIVE
children during the past six years, by VIC

the shock and seriously sick as a result OF
it. One child (aged 81 was killed by cy'

years later was run over by Burlington

may so prey on the mind as to lead to seri
GUS physical disorders has been well dem
onstrated in this case As result OF them
her health was shattered and she has been
q constant sufferer since 1890. Her prin'
cipal trouble has been neuralgia OF the
stomach which was very painful, and ex'
hibited all the symptoms Of ordinary neu'
ralgia, nervousness and Indigestion. Ply.
sicians did her no good whatever. She
was discouraged and abandoned all hope
of getting we'll. Finally, however, Ger.

She supplied herself with a quantity OF

aa, Western Canada, before taking up
their home there visited the coun-
try as delegates. They reported to
the Government of the Dominion OF
Canada the result of their observations,
and from this report extracts have
been taken, which are published below:
1--WE have visited number OF most
desirable locations, and are highly
pleased with the country as a whole,
it being beyond our highest expecta-
tions. We find here a prosperous and
well-contented lot of people. They
have comfortable homes, and their vast
fields of wheat and other crops in addl-
ton to their herds Of choice cattle, in
dictate prosperity in the full sense OF
the word. In conversation with the
farmers throughout our trip we learned
that the majority of them came here
with very limited means. and some
with no more than enough to
bring them, here, and they are now
well-to-do. They all claim that this IS
the only country for a poor man, or
one with little means, to get start
and make home for himself and fam
lily. AS you are aware, we were
little shaky and undecided before leav-
ing Detroit, but have determined since
that we, with our friends, will make
this country our future home. 1t Is
far from being the wilderness we had
pictured 1t to be; it is, instead, a land
having all the facilities required by
modern civilization, such as railroads,
markets, stores, churches, schools, ETC.,
in fact, an ideal home for those having
the future welfare of themselves and
families at heart"
The Messrs. Striovski selected the
Alameda district, but what they say
Of it applies in general way to most
other districts in that vast country.
They speak of the fuel, which is to be
had in great quantities, Of the water
that can be had by digging from 10 to
20 feet, and Of the good grazing land
to be had almost everywhere. There is
plenty of wood for building timber and
for fuel, while coal Is convenient, and
sells at low prices at the mines. In
driving through the country they
passed may fine patches Of wild rasp-
berries, and say they can speak highly
of their flavor, as they could not resist
the temptation to stop and eat.

valuable space, l shall defer further
reference to Western Canada for an

BERLIN, Feb. 5.-Baron Won Him
merstein- Loxten, the minister of agri-
culture, at yesterdays session Of the
Prussian Diet, declared that American
horses developed influenza after i'm
portation. He added: III the i'm
portations increase we shall certainly
be forced to adopt a suitable quaran-
tine in order to protect ourselves"
WASHINGTON, Feb. 5-When the ca
BILE as to the prospective quarantine
of American horses was shown to
Chairman Hit, OF the house foreign
affairs committee, he said this move
was clearly part Of the general
movement toward exclusion shown by
the recent action against American
fruit. His colleague on the foreign
affairs committee, Mr.. Adams, OF
Pennsylvania, said the dispatch sug-
gested that it was time to discover a
bacillus in German wines, and it would
be desirable also to determine as to
the sanitary character of the process
of making German sugar sent to the
United States.
The officials of the agricultural de-
partment emphatically discredited
the probability of American horses
carrying the influenza into Germany,
and say that if they do develop it
after importation it is contracted
from animals in that country. The
statements of the German minister OF
agriculture. Secretary Wilson says,
are unwarranted.
The growth in the shipment OF
American horses to Europe in the
past four years has been enormous.
These shipments in 1897 aggregated
in value 81, 7s5, PCS, as against $7ls,6o7
in 1893 The value of those sent to
Germany in 1897 was Ss22, $50, as COM
pared with S79, $50 in 1893.
