The difficulty of sending messages
by wireless telegraphy which shall

seems to have been solved by a most
ingenious device presented by NJ.

Mall Gazette. He uses at the sending
station not one but two trausmitters.
One of these transmits the real dis.
patch by the usual code, while the
other sends only series of meaning
less dots and dashes produced by a
mechanical process. The range of
this last transmitter is kept always
rather less than other, so that at the
receiving station only the code sig.
nails will be received. If. however, an
attempt be made TO intercept the sig

Five years later there was tremen-

FRANK BROWN Is
CLEVER DEFAULTBR
Bank Officials Place His
Shortage at $l9l,5OO
Missing Cashier Often Spent as Much
as $1,000 A Day, His Yearly
Salary

Newport. Ky, Nov 2O.-Thc experts
who have been working with receiver
Tucker ON the books Of the German
National bank place the shortage of
Frank Brown, the missing assistant
cashier and individual boOkkcepeg, at
Sl9l 500. According 20 reports from
those who were with Brown when he
left last Tuesday night ne had less than
$500 with him. Browns salary was
only 81 500 Der year. Cases are now
cited where Le spent moro than that
amount ia one day. His bond was for
$4,000, and II ig good as far as It
goes.
Browns system required wonder
ful memory. I ho experts say he car
ried in his head the figures that en-
abled him to call Oh correctly a lot OF
false entries IN a way 10 throw the
clerks who were doing the checking
with him OH the track. A depositor
would put ia 300. Brown would en-
ter the proper amount Of the deposit in
one book and enter it as 500 in an
other. He would take the difference.
$4,000, himself. Then when # came to
checking Up he would handle enc OF
the books. Another clerk would check
and Brown would call of. Instead OF
calling OF 500. which appeared az the
amount of the deposit on the book
which he was handling, he would call
it as Sc. 100, thus making il correspond
with the book in the hands Of the other
clerk.
He also, it is alleged, worked in an
other way. A dcpositor would draw
out S100. Brown would make tho
proper entry in one book and enter
S3,lOO in another. When the depositor
had his account 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 $500 had
been withdrawn.
Brown had memorized all the indi-
viduai 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 al
legged, was fixed to suit Browns pur-
poses, the former being the one that
the bank officials examined. II is gem
orally believed that Browns first
shortage started accidentally with an
error Of $1,000 in the individual accounts
