NEW YORK, Nov. 17.-MaX Borchardt,

Of Francis D. Leggett a. Co, wholesale
grocers at West Broadway and Franklin
Street, was arrested today at his home,
% East Eighteenth Street, on a warrant
charging grand larceny issued by Magis-
trate Cornell.
The warrant charges Borchardt with
appropriatnS s115 which he had collected
on behalf Of his employers. A represent
atiye of Leggs 1t d. Co. told a reporter,
however. that the total amount of the
prisoners peculadons was estimated at
S34, 900, not including $1,000 in which he
stands indebted to the firm, and that he
had confessed 10 the theft Of $4,000.
Borchardt h-d been in the employ Of
the company nearly four years as a sales
man. No suspicion was ever thrown on
his integrity until last Saturday. when a
mere chance led to a wholly unexpected
discovery.
As an ordinary .alesman he would have
had no chance to misdppropriate any
money at all, but Il has become the Gus

this city for the salesman handling the
trade with bakers to do their own collect

A Club Formed mt Dartmouth for II

ciety has been formed at Dartmouth Col
lege, which is. perhaps, the first of its
kind formed amcng college students in
this country. 1t is the Intelligent An
archy Club" but is not. as its name might
imply, a society of conservative auarch-
lists bred in the college atmosphere.
The society owes its inception to the re-
cent assassination of President McKin-
ley. Its membership. is composed of many
of tie leading students and debaters in
the college, who believe that problem
for study and investigation has present
ed itself I'm the anarchist question.
II is the intention of the club to study
and discuss the principles Of Intelligent
anarchy, with the view of determining. if
possible, to what end they tend. and what
remedies must be applied If restriction is
necessary.
During the winter the club will invite
prominent men to come to Hanover to
make addresses on live political subjects.
At the second meeting it, has been ar
ranged that two members shall speak

ASSURED OF THE NOMINATION
Representative Richardson VIII BE
Minority Candidate for Sneaker.

The opposition to the repoffdnation OF
Representative James ID, Richardson OF
Tennessee as the minority 8 candidate FOR
Speaker. manifested shortly after the ad-
iournmert of the last Congress. seems to
have collapsed The few Democratic
members now in the city, In discussing
the Speakership contest, say that Mr..
Richardson will undoubtedly be chosen,
and practically unanimously.
There was some talk that the opposition
would centre on Representative De Ar
mond of Missouri, and would put him for
ward to contest for the leadership. But
Mr. De Armond it is said by his friends.
will not be willing tc make the fight un-
less he is sure Of winning.
Yesterday the name of Representative
Lanham of Texas was mentioned as a
possible rival and candidate for the
Speakership nomination. Mr. Lanham
has served about sixteen years in the
House and he is regarded as one of the
abest men on the Democratic side.
However Il is known that a majority of
the Democratic members have pledged
themselves to support Mr.. Richardson,
which will ensure his nomination. But
whether the nomination wifi be rendered
unanimously will depend on what the op-
position decides when it meets in con-
ference the latter part of next week.
