The request was granted. and in the
course of five minutes coffee was on
the table for all in the party, Mrs.
Duke insisting upon her husband s

hurried meal.

Harry Dukes broken-hearted but de-
voted wife.
Duke was taken to the office of his
attorney, S. II. Lewis, and after a few
minutes conversation with him, was
driven to the county Jail, where he oc-
cupies cell on the second floor outside
the rotary.
He was in wretched mental condition
last night, being almost as greatly I'M
nerved as was Robertson early in the
week. He had no callers, except news
paper men, to whom he had nothing to
say regarding the, case.
Dukes friends say there is scarcely
a doubt that he will raise the amount
of his bail. Mrs. Duke, it is said, will
go upon her husbands bond for about
$4,000. Attorney S. III. Lewis, Duke
counsel, had no statement to make last
night. He considers $4,000 an excessive
bond, and will make an effort to have
that figure brought down some The
assistant cashier will be arraigned be-
fore Justice Nielsen at 10 o'clock this
morning.

deputies testiheA that the prisoners gath

men pointed a revolver at one of the
deputies. The riot act was then read, and
the mob refusing 10 dispense, the deputy
sheriff and his posse put the ringleaders
under arrest. The magistrate held the de-
PENDANTS in $500 bail for trial. They could
not furnish the bail and were sent to
Jail
County Detective Phillips of Lackawan-
ma county came to Duryea today and
placed seven of the coal and iron DO
hcemen there under arrest. They are
charged with shooting yesterday the
Italian whose body was found outside OF
the barricade- The officers were taken
trate Howe, who held them in $1,000 bail.
The Wilkesbarre alliance made its first

The alliance has offered 5000 reward

There came near being a serious riot
at the William A. colliery this afternoon.
Charles A Brown, a mining engineer
was on his way to the mine, when he
was threatened by a crowd of strikers.
Brown pulled his revolver and fired in
the air, whereupon the guards behind the
barricade at the colliery came out and
fired into the air. causing the foreigners
to fall back After it was thought the
trouble had subsidized, Brown was arrest

He was taken before Burgess Burling

Italians, and was held in $500 bail for
trial. The police say they found four
revoIvers on Brown. Being unable to
furnish ball. Brown was removed to the
county jail. The first break in the ranks
of the striking firemen occurred this aft
ernoon when three former employers Of
the Kingston Coal company applied for
work and were given their old places
Three of the firemen who went out at
the Pine Ridge mine, at Miners Mills,
also requested that their old places be
given them, and the superin sendent of

ly all the members present signiffed
their willingness to sign the bond, and
the necessary sum was raised. Justice
Nielsen and Assistant County Attorney
Ritter were sent for and a bond was
prepared After the instrument had
been written. it was discovered that it
was illegal in form and another bond
was then prepared in accordance with
the laws.
Two men had signed the instrument
when the. question was raised as to
whether or not each signer would be
held liable for the full amount of the
bond. The attorneys held that accord
ing to the terms of the instrument,
each signer could be held liable for the
full amount, although the court might
not be able to collect more than the
amount he signed for in case of a for
feiture. The Elks held that bond
could be fixed by which each signer
could be held only for the amount he
signed for, but the attorneys claimed
that no such bond could be legal.
Accordingly, it was decided to allow
the matter TO go over until today when
an effort will be made to straighten
the matter out and get a bond that
VIII be satisfactory to the signers. II
was with no little regret that the Elks
saw this difficulty arise, for they were
anxious to get their member out of jail
last night, and could the bond have
been satisfactorily arranged the neces-
sary amount would have been raised
before the Elks left the hail. Amounts
from 500 to $1,000 were willingly sub
scr1bed by the members on a tempo
rary list that was prepared

ROBERTSON AND DUKE ARE
UNDER ARREST AND IN JAIL
Continued from Page -

To his wife he said he would get bonds
and return within short while.
The officers and their prisoner got
into the hack and rode all over town
in search of the county attorney, so
that the arraignment might take place
and an effo,t be made to get bonds. The
official was not found, and a start was
made for the county Jail, when Duke
asked permission to go back and see
his wife. 1t was readily granted, the
sheriff accompanying his prisoner into
the house
Here the situation became tragic
When Duke informed his wife, who is
in delicat- health, that he was unable
to get bonds and would have 10 "stay
uptown all night, the suffering woman
swooned and fell into his arms uncon-
scious.
Many hands. including those of Sher-
iff Naylor, took a part in the resusci-
tation of the frail little wife. It was a
scene to excite the keenest, deepest
sympathy for those who must bear the
great burden of the trouble. When she
had recovered from her faint, Mrs.
Duke turned to her husband with the
words:
Harry, you haven't had your sup
per- and in a pleading voice she asked
the sheriff to allow him to eat some
thing.

DETECTIVE THACkER TELLS HOW THE
MONEY WAS EMBEZZLED FROM THE BANK

]. N. Thacker, chief of the Wells
Fargo detective bureau at San Fran
cisco, who swore to the complaint, and
whose presence in the city was made
known by The Herald yesterday. talked
with unusual freedom about the case
last night, after Robertson and Duke
were behind the bars
This crooked work. said Mr..
Thacker, has been going on for ten
years, and should have been discovered
before, although it was possible for the
two guilty men to ward off the dis
covery for a long while. The defalca-
tions were accomplished by a conspir-
acy between the two, Cor one man could
not have done it. Their system has
been to forge an order for money from
some large outside depositor, and, when
it became necessary. forge another or
der upon another account to replace
the first money taken.
For example. suppose the defauIterS
wanted $1,000. In various parts of this
state and in other states there are de-
positors who carry large balances.
They had the signature book before
them. To copy the signature of a
large deposition was an easy matter.
They would forge the epositor's name
to an order, not check. to forward
$1,000 cash to him. After this order
was entered in the banks books, by
the bookkeeper, II was destroyed, and,
consequently, no evidence was left by
which the defalcation would be detect
ed in the checking up. Duke and
Robertson were the two men able to
carry on this system. and neither of
them could have done it single-handed.
1T was easy to watch the account
from which the $1,000 had been taken,
and when it became uncomfortabiy
small. another order on another ac-
count was forged, and the money cred
tied to the first account
1T was clever work, but it was just
question of time until discovery.

KING DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE
HE COULD NOT VIEW PARADE.

7 ONDON, July 2.-King Edward has
l.. passed another good day. The quiet
and routine OF the sick room was
varied today by the excitement Of listen
ing to the music and cheers of the Indian
troops as they marched past the palace
and greeted Queen Alexandra on the ball
scony.
King Edward was somewhat disappoint-
ed that he was not able to see the march
past of the troops. He had hoped that
this would be possible from an invalid
couch in window of the palace, but the
doctors were unwilling that he should risk
this exposure and excitement. and his
majesty had to content himself with hear
ing the troops without seeing them.
At a late hour tonight the kings i'm
provement continued. 1t was announced
that he had partaken of a fairly good
dinner and smoked cigar. The Prince
and Princess of Wales gave a brilliant
dinner party at York house tonight in
honor of the visiting Indian princes.

messed in st. PauFs cathedral tonight

cnent, waived the reading of the COM
plant and entered plea of not guilty,
then asked that a bond be fixed.
Assistant County Attorney Loofbou-
row said the state wanted a bond of
$4,000 for each defendant, which would
cover the deficit alleged, and no OBJ
lection being made by Robertson's at
torney, Justice Nielsen fixed the bond
at that sum. The state announced that
it was not ready to fix a date for the
hearing.
Word reached the Office about this
time that the deputies who. had gone
out in search of Duke had failed to find
him, and the officials decided to wait no
longer for the absent defendant. Rob-
ertson, accompanied by his attorney
and Deputy Sheriff Raleigh, walked
down the side streets TO the county
jail, and the accused teller was placed
IN the women's ward on the second
floor. An effort was made to secure
bonds for Robertson last night, and
this failing he remained in jail.

HE PLAYED PING PONG.
Methods Used to Bring Robertson Out
of Nervous Condition.

Ping pong. or tale tennis, the rage
OF two continents, was one of the chief
means employed to bring Robertson
out Of his nervous condition during his
stay at the Knutsford. When the bank
teller was taken to the hotel by De-
teetive Sheets. about the first task his
friends had to face was that of cheer
ing up the respondent man. Tt was not
an easy matter. He had everything of
course, in the way OF physical comfort
and luxury, but something to abstract
his mind was a more imperative neces-
sity.
Tuesday morning Councilman Davis
showed up with a suspicious bundle un-
der his arm. The contents were spread
out on the table and Robertson, as well
as Sheets, wanted to know the name of
it.
Why, this is ping pong" answered
Davis. and with considerable skill, the
councilman gave them an exhibition of
the popular game.
Many of the weary hours in the hotel
since then were spent at ping pong
and Robertson and his companion, the
detective, are said to have become quite
expert in the game.
