Unhcard.
All things are wrought Of melody.
Unheard. yet full of speaking spells:
Within the rock, within the tree,
a soul Of music dwells-
\ mute symphonic sense that thrills
The silent frame Of mortal things;
It's heart beats in the ancient hills.
And in each flower sings.
To harmony all growth Is set:
Each seed is but a music note.
From which each plant. each violet,
Evolves its purple note.
Compact of melody, the rose
Woes the soft wind with strain on strain
OF crimson; and the lily blows
It's white bars TO the rain
The trees are paeans; and the grass
One long. green fugue beneath the sun;
Song is their life, and all shall pass,
Shall cease, when song is done

U. S. Reply Held in

Probably Not An Unqualified
Acceptance.

Washington, October 24.-In view of
the widespread comment that the An
glo-German alliance conc erning Chin
was open to the possible construction of
an implied or indirect menace or threat
against some other powers interested in
the Chlnes9 question, the attention OF
Count De Quadt, the German charge
d d'affaires today was called to this point.
Count De Quadt said that he was able to
give categorical and very positive
statement on the highest authority, that
the agreement involved no menace what
ever to any power concerned in China.
He said this applied to all the parties
which had taken hand in Chinese
affairs. Count De Quardt stated with
equal positiveness that there was no
foundation for reports of further or add1-
tional features to the agreement beyond
those transmitted to the various gov
ernments and made public. He said that
documents covered the entire transac-
tion. The response of the United States
to the British-German agreement as
communicated by Count De Quadt, Is
still held in allegiance. Tt is understood

Statement From Acting Co1nptrOIer Of
Currency.
Washington, October 24.-Mr. Il. P.
Kane, the acting comptroller of the cur
rency, today gave out the following
statement regarding the defalcation in
the First National bank of New York:
During the progress of the examina-
ton by Bank Examiner Hanna, October
15, of the First National bank, Assistant
Cashier Backus discovered that the note
and exchange teller, A1vord, was short
in his cash to an amount which has since
been found to be $500, 600.
His thefts have been going on for a
long time. The plan of ooncealing them
and making the cash on hand agree with
the amount for which he was account
able, as shown by the books was tG take
out of the morning mall of which he was
in oarge a sufficient number OF cash items
to cover the aggregate amount of his
defalcation and add them to the ex-
changes for the clearing house received
during the preceding day. The examina-
tion Of the exchanges at the time of ex-
am1natiOns showed the total amount
correct. but $3.50 600 of the items had
b5en taken from the morning receipts
and listed with previous days exchanges,
the amount OF morning additions being
reduced that much, so that the sum OF the
two aggregated the correct amount.
"a change in the slip later in the day
caused inquiry and comparison to be
made at the clearing house when it was
discovered that the two items of 'previ-
Gus days exchanges and morning addi-
tions7 did not correspond with the list
checked by the examiner, and count of
the current days cash and checks in
han Dis OF the third teller revealed a short
age of 5000, 900. The shortage seemed to
have been about $780, 600 two years ago
and has bsen increased gradually sinc5
that time the teller concealing the same
in the morning additions which always
amounted to much more than the
amount of his shortage and never entered
into the count of the preceding days

And Recover Part of
Stolen Funds.
How Far Negotiations Have Pro-
ceeded Not Known

New York, October 24.-There is rea-
son to believe, according to the New York
World, that Cornelius l.. AIvord, Jr.,
the note teller, who robbed the First
National bank of $500, OoO, is either in
the custody Of the Pink erton men, or he
is where they can get him in very short
time.
Every indication last night pointed to
the fact that the whereabouts Of Alvord
was no mystery to the bank people and
the Pinkecton men. 1t was thought
for time that the Pinkertons had their
man cooped up in his own house in
Mount Vernon. and had had him there
since Sunday.
No warrant has been issued for the
arrest Of AIvord. No police department
has been officially Informed OF his thefts.
No detective or police officer could legal
ly place him under arrest. These facts
made clear yesterday that the bank is
bending every effort to effect a compro-
mise by which restitution of a part or all
Of the stolen money will be made. How
far the negotiations for restitution have
progressed is not known. Neither the
attorneys of Alvord nor the officials OF
the bank would discuss the matter yester-
day.

in the contingency that other powers
seize territory in China, our government
will not concern itself at this stage.
1t is not expected that our adherence
to the arrangement would be required
to take the form of formal signature

So it is PROBABLE that the answer to be

whole act, but only win treat OF those
portions of the agreement with which
