The Attorney Instructs the Commis-
sfoners Regarding budding.

Andrew r. DuvaU. the Attorney for the
District. today submitted 10 the Commis-
sioners an opinion in regard 10 the pro-
tests against the re-estabiishment OF the
brickyard of the Childs Brick Compa-
ny, situated between Mt Olvet Cemetery
and the tracks Of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad. Mr. Duvan states that
on April A. 1850, n permit was issued TO

kilns and locate brickyard on the Fen
wick farm, as above described. opposite
Ivy City. Discussing the merits Of the
subject. Mr.. Duvall says:
In November, 1900. w. J. Frizzell and
w. L. Collier made enquiry of the Com
missioncrs whether the brick company
could resume operation without obtain
ing a new permit alleging that the brick
yard had not been in operation since July,
1899. This enquiry was referred to the In
spector of Buildings, who reported that
the briclkyard had been located upon
the approval Of the Commissioners and a
permit issued therefor April "A, 1890, and
mad been used as such and that there
was nothing in the building regulations
tsection I'D that required the owner to
obtain the consent OF property owners
TO resume the operation of a brickyard
on the same site
] Thereafter, at the request of the Com
missioners, the Assistant Inspector OF
/ Buildings prepared an amendment to sec
! tiOn III, which on December %, 1900, was
adopted and said section was amended
I so as to read as follows:
% No building or premises to be used
as a slaughterhouse, soap or candle fac
tory, bone boiling or other establishment
whereby offensive or unhealthy odors or
/ gases are generated shall be erected or
located within $50 yards Of a dwelling
without the written consent of the own

nit shall bc void If at any time there
! after the establishment is not operated

looked into. He was sent over to jail
and will remain there until the police
can communicate with the officials In

enue, was arrested Friday afternoon
by Deputy Sheriff Cooley on COM
plaint of Grand Juror Dale, charging
him with indecent exposure. 1t ap-
pears that some little girls went into

VERGENNES BANK
Is Minus $4,000 And The Cashier

A STARTLING EMBEzzLEMENT
D. H. Lewis, the Unfortunate Cashier, Is Prominent

Vergennes, VT, April l5.-The con.

Bank Examiner Frank L. Fish dur

April 3, discovered shortage in the
cash and further investigation which
has been conducted by Special Exam
iner Jonn B. Cunningham indicates ?.
total embezzlement by the cashier d.
H. Lewis Of 800 600.
After the discovery Of the defalca-
tion the examiner secured the return
Of S25, 600 to The bank.
Until more complete investigation
into the acts Of the cashier is made 1t
is impossible to state what loss, if
any, will accrue to the deposilors.
IL is not believed however, that
the loss to the depositors will be
large.
The institution has capital stock
of $6O,000 and was supposed to have
a small surplus. The last report
showed that il had deposits subject to
check amounting to about $50, 900
and time deposits of about the same
amount.
The officers of the bank are: N r.
Dunshee, president; Lieut.. Gov. M.
F. Allen, vice president; N. f. Dun
shee, NJ. f. Allen, Walter Scranton,
D. H. Lewis, ii. w. Leroy. FL. w.
Tracy, directors. The cashier is D.
II. Lewis.
The peculallOns are understood to
have covered long p+riod and from
source which seems to be authentic
the statement is made that the funds
appear to have been taken in small
amounts.
However, as none of the bank Off
cials will directlu explain matters, it
remains to be seen in what manner
Lewis used the sums he is accused of
stealing.
Mr.. Lewis is well known through
out the state, has been member of
both branches of the legislature and in
| 1883 was a prominent candidate for
state treasurer.
He is very popular locally and this
popularity extended to many sections
Of the state, where he has visited in a
business way and socially.
He remains at home and has turned
over to the officers OF the bank his en-
tire holdings Of stock and negotiable
property.
His sureties are equal to $50, 900,
and the men who have signed his
bond are believed to be good for that
amount.
The bank was organized in 1880,
Col Walter Scranton the present presi'
dent Of the Lackawana steel and iron
company being it's first president and
taking nearly all its capital stock.
