ALLEGED SWINDLERS
Arrested on a Warrant Charging
Grand Larceny,
ASSETS OF A LOAN ASSOCIATION,

1t Is Charged, Were Co Have Been Di-
verted to the Personal Use of the |
Men who Had Themselves Placed In |
Control.
Buffalo, April 3.-The arrest OF John |
l.. White, whose address is given as the |
St. Paul building, New York, and
Charles l.. Eastwood. said to be Syra !
cuse, and the issuing of warrants for the
arrest Of John j. W. Reynolds. who IS
said to have an Office in the Gnlatin Ma
tional bank building, New York. Samuel
Piser and II. A. Alger, also Of New
York all on the charge OF grand larceny,
has brought to light an alleged scheme
to make away with the assets Of the
Globe Savings and Loan association, OF
this city.
The four men mentioned came to Buf-
falo a month ago, and, according to the
story told by the officers and those in
terested visited the offices Of the loan
company, saying that they were organ
izing a building association combine or
trust, and wanted the Globe company
to join it. The story told to the Of
fcers and directors of the company was
| q plausible and inviting one, and IT
was agreed to join the combine.
On March ~ Eastwood, White, Piser
and Alger came to Buffalo again, and
! Immediately following their arrival the
directors of the Globe company resigned,
and Eastwood and his friends were
elected to their places. The new board
at once proceeded to organize by elect
ing White as president and Eastwood as
secretary and treasurer. Accompanied
by the former treasurer OF the Hssocia-
ton Eastwood visited various banks in
which money was deposited to the credi.
Of the Globe association and was intro.
duced to the bank officials.
Later in the day Eastwood returned
alone to the City National bank and
drew S10,500, saying that the associa-
tion had bought tract of land in
Queens county and the money was to
make a payment on it. Eastwood at
the same time deposited with the City
bank drafts on several other local banks
for the amount Of the loan association 5
balance, stating that he wished to bring
the balance in the City bank up to re-
spectacle figures.
One of these checks, drawn on the
Citizens bank, attracted the attention
Of President Joseph Block, who sus
7 pected something wrong and consulted
the attorney of the Globe association
regarding it. Ihe other directors ant
officers were at once called together, anf
an injunction was secured restraining
the different banks from paying ou
funds held by them to the credit Of th'
Globe association.
After the injunction had been secured
a check for $4,000, made payable to Sam
uel Piser and endorsed by Reynolds
drawn through a Rochester bank, reach
4 ed the City National bank here, and an
other for $4,500, drawn through tn
Chemical National bank, Of New York
by White, arrived at another bank. Bot
checks were held up pending further in
vestigation of the affairs of the assocla
ton.
The original directors of the Globe as
sociation have made good the S1O,5O
drawn from the City National bank, an
the assets of the Globe concern are
therefore, unimparied.

notice of many small matters of the
kind. 1t is not whether vegetables
raised primarily for the penitentiary
were used on the tables of employees
that the committee is after; but
weightier matters. There have beer
some charges made of inhuman treat
ment of convicts, and this feature o.
the case will be looked into but it is
not expected that any cruelty to-
ward conyicts can be shown SO fas as
the ex.superintendent is concerned
He has, on the contrary, often restrain
ed subordinates who were inclined to
take advantage of the helpless position
of the convicts. While it is the inten'
ton of the committee to probe to the
very bottom of the matter, it is be-
lieved that all the sensational features
of the testimony have been developed.
Nevertheless the public will watch with
keen anticipation for further light on
penitentiary sensations.

- The question of inviting Mr..
BRYAN to the Confederate reunion
has been discussed pro and con by
some of the papers. While there is nc
special reason why Mr.. Bryan should
be invited, there does not appear any
good reason why he should not be,
Most of the Confederate veterans are
Democrats-real Democrats-like Mr.
Bryan but whether this were true OF
not, Mr.. Bryan knows how to behave
himself anywhere and under all cir
cumStances.
