TO THE REFORM FORCES.
= Union Of All Hrynn's supporters into
New Party.

Boston, Nov. 19.-An address head
ed to the reform Forces of the
Country" has been issued by George
+. Washburn, president of the Bryan
club Of Massachusetts, and the ma
tional committeeman of the peoples
party, in which he says:
"The campaign of 1900 was con-
test of conscience against capital. 1t
was the greatest struggle for human
rights since the days of Jackson or
Lincoln. The reelection of McKin-
ley was victory for Imperialism and
the trusts. But our grand reform
movement will roll on to ultimate VIC
tory. 1t is beyond the range of hui
man probability that Bryan will again
become the candidate of the demo-
cratic party. But he can lead to vic-
tory a new party conducted on safe
and conservative, yet progressive
lines. Therefore, to maintain our
presentmomentum new party must
be formed. We must have a complete
reunion of reform forces. This can
be accomplished by uniting the Bryan
democrats, Bryan republicans, popu-
lists and other smaller bodies to be
lead by the man of the hour, who
ever he may be. believe that had
such party been formed four years
ago Bryan would have triumphed
this time. Accordingly, propose that
Mt an early date we have confer
ence of the parties referred to in the
central part of the country for the
purpose Of effecting an immediate un.
derstanding that we may begin the Or
ganization of new party

BROWNS SHORTAGE.
beExisd SOL ,6OO-Ths system Hs Pur-
sued and His Wonderful Memory.

Cincinnati, Nov. 2O.-The experts
who have been working with Re-
ceiver Tucker on the books of the
German national bank at Newport,
KY, place the shortage of Frank W.
Brown, the missing assistant cash
Ter and individual bookkeeper, at $751;
500. According to reports from those
who were with Brown when he left
last Tuesday night he had less than
$500 with him. Browns salary was
only $1,000 per year. Cases are now
cited where he spent more than that
amount in one day. His bond was
for $4,000, and it is good as far as
it goes.
During the run on the German ma
tional bank last Saturday 100000 was
secured in Cincinnati to bridge over
the trouble. This was returned yes
terday and Receiver Tucker had other
moneys and papers also transferred
to Cincinnati.
Browns system required wonder
fai memory. The experts say he car
ried in his head the figures that en-
abled him to call off correctly lot
of false entries in way to throw the
clerks who were doing the checking"
with him off the track. A depositor
would put in $1,000, Brown would en-
ter the proper amount of the deposit
in one book and enter it as 500 in
another lie would take the differ
ence, $4,000 himself. Then, when it
came to checking up, he would handle
one of the books.
Another clerk would check and
Brown would call off, Instead of call
ing off 500, which appeared as the
amount of the deposit on the book
which he was handling, he would call
it as $1,000, thus making it corre-
spond with the book in the hands of
the other clerk. He also, 1t is alleged,
worked it in another way. A deposit
or would draw out 500. Brown would
make the proper entry in one book
and enter $1,000 In another. When
the depositor had his amount checked
up the figures were taken from the
book in which the correct entry had
been made. When the bank officials
looked to see what amount was due
the depositor they were given their
information from the books which
showed that $1,000 had been with
drawn, Brown had memorized all the
individual accounts and the experts
find no private marks of any kind on
the books. The general ledger was
kept correct and balanced with the
cash, while the individual ledger, it is
alleged, was fixed to suit Browns
purposes, the former being the one
that the bank officials examined.

VICE IN NEW YORK.


New York, Nov. 16.-The executive
committee of Talnmany hall held a
meeting at which Richard Croker
babe all the leaders good-by and took
hand in starting movement to
rid the city of vice. In little speech
the fammany leader said he was 60
ing to Europe for health, not pleas
IRE, and introduced Isidor Straus,
president of the Educational alliance,
as "A man who was acquainted with
the conditions in the east side and
side, adding: 81 hope you will give
attentive hearing to his statements
of the condition of vice that exists
there and that after you have heard
what he has to say you will use your
every effort to correct those evils as
far as lies in your power"
Mr.. Straus said he had met Mr.
Croker at dinner accidentally and had
talked with him for two hours over
the conditions in the east side and
Mr.. Croker had asked him to talk to
the executive committee of Tammany
hall, and then addressing the commit
tee Mr., Straiis told of what was need
ed on the east side to suppress crime.
lie said that he, as a democrat, had
frequently had cast up to him the
statement that Tammany hall re-
ceives the greater part of it's revenue
from people in these evil conditions
of life and no good can be accom-
plished until the power of Tammany
hall is destroyed
Lewis Nixon then, by resolution,
had committee of five appointed to
investigate the moral conditions of
the city and to receive and suggest
remedies for the corrections OF
abuses"
The meeting broke up in confusion
because of the attitude of Coroner
Fitzpatrick, the Tammany leader in
the Fourteenth assembly district,
who denied that there were any dis
reputable houses in his district. He
said that il there was vice there it
was in tenement houses and could
not be controlled. To this Mr.. Gro
ker excitelly replied that the coroner
did not know what could be done I'M
til some effort was made. ST.,
