RUN ON BUFFALO BANK
RumorS of a Deficit or 0efaEca-
tion Caused Q Stampede
of Depositors.

Buffalo. n. Y, May 9.-There was a
run on the Fidelity Trust company to-
day. The board of trustees of the in
StitUtiOn has issued statement which
alludes TO rumOrs current during the
last week that there was a large def1cl-
in one of the banks, and says;
ION Thursday and Friday the rumOT
took the form of a statement that the
defalcation existed in the Fidelity
Trust company of Buffalo. 1t was said
that the president had used 100000 OF
the money Another statement was
that George I. Williams had used $780,
600 of the money of the company
The results thus far have been the
withdrawals of some accounts, aggre-
eating possibly 500, 900. The bank has
offered a reward for information dis
closing the name Of the person origin
ating the TumOr-
The trustees pronounce the story TO
be absolutely false in every particular.
Neither Mr.. Forman nor Mr. Williams
nor any other trustee or official owes to
the bank single dollar. There has
been no defafcatiOn of any kind, and
the company has $4,000, 600 to provide
against any demand.
The run had almost ceased when the
trust company closed its doors for the
day
Owing to the known stability of the
company. the presidents Of the other
banks in the city volunteered the an
nouncement that they stand ready to
deposit 81 900. 900 in the Fidelity bank
at once.

challenge TO the trades unions in which
he offers to engage a public hall and
defray all expenses excepting for the
speakers, and makes one condition
that the unions agree to confine their
speeches TO answering questions to be
furnished by him in advance. He as
serts that refusal to accept his offer

ness In his letter Nj Havemeyer says
TO the trades unions:
Has it ever occurred to you that the
ability or skill to do any kind of work

To what extent has any man the right
to cease from work and thus cease to

persuasion or force to keep other men
from exercising this gift, even if he is
unwilling TO use il himself? If
through idleness men are refusing TO
use the talent which God gave them.

tween Two Passenger Cars.

Especial TO The Herald.)
Milford, Utah, May "a peculiar
railroad accident that happened at Mil
ford last night resulted in the instant
death of r. c. Stepp, a brakeman.
Stepp went in between a chair car and
a Pullman to adjust an automatic
coupling that had failed to work, both
cars being in motion at the time. While
in this position the cars came together
at a time when Stepp's head CHANGED to
be directly between the vestibUIe buff
fers. With his head thus imprisoned
as in a wise he was dragged some dis
lance before the train was stopped.
When the cars were separated 1t was
found that Steps head had been
crushed to a pulp, the skull being lit
orally pulverIzed. A coroner's jury was
impaneled and the verdict was that
the accident was due to Stepp's negIi-
gence. as it is a violation of the rules

Stepp leaves a wife and child at Juab.
The body of Stepp was brought to
