THINKS HE SAW WILL POPE.
T. y. Bohan Says the Alleged kentuck,
Defaulter Is I'm California.

Sacramento. Cal. Jan. 4.-Wil Pope,
the teller Of the Citizens National
bank of Louisville, KY, who. II Is
charged. embezzled 100000 of the funds
of that institution Nov. 1, 1891, is said
to be In this city. 1t was generally be-
lieved in Kentucky that Pope died In
New York about year after he alb
seconded. II is not known how long he
has been living in Sacramento. The
great change in his appearance and the
belief that he was dead would have
concealed his identity forever had he
foregone his desire to converse with
man who knew him before he became a
fugitive.
Thomas j. Bohan of this city was en-
ployed as clerk in the office Of the
Western Union Telegraph company at
Louisville when Pope disappeared and
was charged with embezzlement. Last
Tuesday afternoon Bohan was stopped
In the street by a man who asked him
IL he knew Will Pope Bohan was
startled by the question. and for some
time was unable to recognize in the
speaker the fugitive bank teller, so
great was the change in his features.
They talked for some time over Pope
old home, but no reference was made
to the crime. The police are looking
for the supposed fugitive.
