Postmaster Says "Bosh, Can Cover
Any Shortage With Ten

CAMDEN. N. J., June 2O.-The postal in
spectors who have examined the accounts
of Postmaster Louis T. Derousse today an
nounced to the bondsmen that shortage
o. $2,1S7 had been found. This amount
will be turned over to the post office by the
bondsmen. Derousse will not be prose

Included in the discrepancies is an item
of s412, which, it is said, was taken from
the stamp department, and for which Stamp
Clerk VIM. H. Aul1le holds the postmaster's
personal check. The shortage also, it is
alleged, includes $323 from the money order
department, and for which Money Order
Clerk Thomas Simpson holds the postmas-

This talk about my personal indebted

there is a shortage in the post Office it Is
due to neglect on account of my temporary

FOR AMERICAN DERBY
Great Race at Washington
Park This Afternoon.
TRACK APPEARS FAST
PROBABLY TWENTY STARTERS
WILL COMPETE FOR PRIZE.
Savable and. High Chancellor Favor
ties, With Claude and Judge Hines
Next Choice,
TRACK APPEARS FAST

CHICAGO. June 2O.-The annual tAmeri-
can Derby will be run this afternoon at
Washington Park on a fast but slightly
soft track The special Derby day weather
bulletin this morning predicted that lit
probably will be cloudy most of the day,
but should there be any rain it will be very
light %
The cool weather is not expected to cur
tail the display Of gowns and rich turnouts
to any material extent.
The race which has puzzled turf experts
for three months was as much of a prob
lem three hours before the race as it was
when the entries Were announced. Owners
who are after the 1000 prize were con-
cealing their plans and intentions to the
last possible moment. Twenty-three horses
were named in the entry list.
The vests best array of three year old
horses will decide the sectional champion
ship. The rain which fell last evening did
no more than a good sprinkling would have
done.
Savable and High Chancellor. the pair of
candidates owned by John a. Drake of Chi
cago, were favorites in the morning betting
at . to 2. The post odds will be about the
same figure unless the fast track should
induce the followers of Mr.. brakes horses
to make one more plunge.
favorable to Savable, although the two sec
ond choices, Claude and Judge Hines, will
not find it against them The going will be
soft. and both these horses are at their
best on such a course.
No Derby was ever held in more uucer-
tainty than the race today. Trainer Enoch
Wishard, who has charge of the favorites,
is not yet certain who will pilot Savable.
1t will be Lester Reif or Charles Gray
The former is not in the best of riding con-
dition because he has been out of the sad
die SO long except for an occasional mount.
This fact may induce Wisliard to PITT
Gray up, although Gray has been riding
none too skillfully to suit the shrewd
trainer. 1t was regarded as probable at
noon that Dick Welles and Collonade would
be scratched, leaving Bernays to carry the
Respess colors.
There was also the intimation that Early
might be withdrawn.
There will be no big betting battle in the
ring today such as marked former Derbies.
All of the big money has been laid in the
| future books. and the heavy players of
races are through. They simply wait
ing now for the running of1the race.
The Washington Park Club officials count
on G5,0O0 to 10000 people. The crowd start
ed to the race track at II O'Clock this morn
ing.

ceived by Miss Neftall telling her to come
