The Arrest of Four Prominent Young
Paterson Men.

Paterson Men.
New York, Oct. 23-To-day's deveI-
opments show that the circumstances
surrounding the death of Miss Jennie
| Bosschieter of Paterson, N. j., form one
of the most remarkable and revolving
crimes ever brought to light in this
section. Five persons are in custody,
including the cabman, hired to drive
the men and their victim in his car
riage on the night the occurrence took
place.
According to partial confessions, said
to have been made by one or more and
a statement by the cabman, the girl af-
ter being given drinks, one of which
contained a drug, was driven to the
lonely place, close to where the body
was found, and there what followed is
too horrible to describe. After this, the
unconscious girl was carried to sew
eral doctors, one of whom, DR.. Town
send, of Paterson, pronounced life ex-
tinct Terribly frightened, the four
men, according to the claimants story,
told him to drive back to the place
where the hideous assault took place
and there left the body, where next
morning passing rnilkman found it
and reported to the police.
The four men implicated as principals
In the crime and under arrest are:
Walter C. McAllister, a member Of the
firm Of James McAllister & Co., silk
throwsters; George Kerr, a member of
the J. P. Donleavy Paint company;

was married only five weeks ago. The
men in the crime were held without

A DEFALCATION OF $500, 900
FIRST NATIONAL BANK, OFF NEW
YORK, VICTIMIZED.

Charles l.. AIvord, Jr., Its Note Teller,
RObs tho Institution of the Above
Amount by u SlSiIIful Manipulation of
His Balance Book-Bamk Examiners
Failed to Find Amy IrreguInrities-
Alvord Lived ExtravagantIy and
Speculated-SpentM Money Like Prince
at saratoga-Banlx,s Stability Not In
jured.
New York, Oct 23.-Charles L. AL
word, jr., note teller of the First Nation
al bank of 2 Wall street, this city, is a
fugitive and defaulter to the extent of
100000.
The announcement of the defalcation,
which was made this afternoon, created
the utmost excitement in the financial
district of the city, but the we'll known
stability of the First National bank and
a statement issued by the bank had a
quieting effect This statement was as
follows:
1.-THE note teller who has been in the
employ of the First National bank for
many years is defaulter to a large
amount His operations have contin
ued for considerable period and have
been skilfully concealed through a ma
nipulation of his balance book. The
discovery was made by one of the
banks employees a few days after the
completion of an examination of the
bank by the United States examiners.
During the continuance of his pecula-
tions periodical examinations have been
made by several distinct corps of ex-
aminers, representing the comptroller's
and the bank has also had frequent in
dependent examina tions, none of which |
has developed any irregularity. The |
aggregate of the false entries, amount |
ing to $700000 has been charged off on |
the books of the bank out of the reserve
fund without diminishing the surplus /
and profits of the bank as reported in |
it's last published statement. 1t Is eX-
pected that the shortage will be ma
terially reduced by substantial sum,
of which there is a fair prospect of re-
covery."
Alvord had been with the bank for
twenty years and was one of the most
trusted men in the institution. His
stealings extended over a long period, |.
but there was no suspicion of the truth =
until ten days ago, when he sent word
that he was ill at his home. After he
had been away for a day or two the
bank put experts at work and some ir-
were found. AS the ex-
perts went deeper and deeper into AL
worlds books the officers were over
whelmed to find that it reached the
enormous figure of 100000. Whether
that sum is all that he took is not yet
known.
1t has not yet developed how the note
teller was able to secure SO much mon
ey and escape immediate detection. One
of the directors Is reported to have said
that Alvord was enabled to take such
large sum because he was in charge of
the mail. This he opened every morn
ing and he had ample opportunity to
abstract notes, drafts and checks, as
well as money. Of course he had to be I
especially skilful to make his accounts
balance. This director admitted that he
was at a loss to account for the failure
of the bank examiners to discover AL ,
worlds irregularities at their last exami-
nation.
