Unfortunate investments just discov-
cred caused big run on the Citizens
National Bank of Saratoga last Satur-
day morning. The cashier, John H.
De Rider. has had about sole control
of the funds Of the bank for several
years. The shortage is supposed to be
between fifty-five and eighty-fve thou
sand dollars. The bank was organized
September /, 1881. with a capital of one
hundred thousand dollars. 1t is found
Cashier De Ridder has loaned funds of
the bank in securities practically worth
less De Ridder is under a bond of ten
thousand dollars, and none of the Off
GERS could say at this time which COM
pany furnished the bond. Cashier De
Ridder is at his home on North Broad
way, and when seen stated that the
circumstances were very unfortunate.
but the directors of the bank had made
arrangements whereby the depositors
win receive their money and not lose a
dollar. United States Commissioner
Charles M. Davis said that as yet no
application had been made to him for a
warrant for the arrest of Cashier De
Riddei.

This morning at 7:S0 the Starin will

hour later the Richard Peck will

In both cases the number of tickets

Boston and New York The Consolida-
ted road has made excellent arrange
ments to handle the tremendous crowds
which are scheduled to cheer for Yale
and Harvard. BY far the best view OF
the races will be had from the obser-
walton trains of sixteen cars each,
which are to be run on either side Of
the river with each race. The tickets
for these trains have been largely TAX

her hackers there will be doings.

DEFENSE OF BLAcKMAIr.

That blackmail will be the defense
of Rev. Charles Seymour Bullock in the
action brought against him by Miss
Isabella Viola Smaller for the alleged
paternity of her infant son, was strong
" indicated at the resumption Of the
trial before Judge Bishop and a jury in
the court of common pleas yesterday
Attorney Jacob p. Goodhart's cross-ex-
animation of Samuel w. Preece point
ing to that line Mr. Preece Is broth
er-in-law of Miss Smaller.
Firmly denying that he had entertain
ed any antipathy to Mr.. Bullock be-
cause of the exclusion of Mr.. Freezes
son from participation In the church
exercises, witness further denied hav-
ing conversed with Mr.. Bullock on
money matters.
At this point Mr.. Goodhart introduce
ed a statement purporting to have been
made by Mr.. Preece, in which he said
he had gone to Mr.. Bullock to inquire
why the latter had not fulfilled an
agreement to settle with Dr. Clapp
for services rendered Miss Smaller. He
had talked with DR.. Clapp on this sub
ject, according to his testimony on the
stand.
Mr.. Preece was questioned about
making arrangements for Miss Smaller
to come to Stratford and remain at the
house OF Mrs. O'Connor, where the baby
was born. Owing to his inability to re-
member little testimony was furnished
except that Mrs O'Connor said she
knew Mr.. Preece was not the father of
the child In her care from the manner
in which he acted.
Mrs. O'Connor testified that Miss
Smaller, under the name of Miss john
son, came to her home two weeks before
the birth OF the child, and that the
baby was taken away about two weeks
AFTER its birth, after being branded by
Or. Clapp. Witness then related her
conversation with Mr.. Mari and that
she had said the child was perfect. She
said that DIR. Clapp called every day or
two for month before the birth, being
twice accompanied by Mr.. Preece.
Court then adjourned at / o'clock.

WHY COLTS QUIT.


Some of Them Incapacitated by Age
for Long Spurts.
In discussing the resignation Of Colts
band from the First regiment Monday,
Manager George #. Johnson informed
the Hartford Telegram that the action
had long been contemplated.
The principal difficulty seems to have
been the refusal of the regimental ua-
thorities to accept substitutes for mem
bers Of the band who were disinclined,
through the inconvenience and hard
ship 1t entailed to make out of town
trips with the regiment. Many of the
members of the band have attained for
ty-five and fifty years of age, and it
was through these, principally, that the
resignation of the entire organization
was sent to Colonel Schulze.
AT a recent meeting of the band when
the subject of the regiments proposed
trip to Manassas, Va, came UP, much
opposition to the trip was manifested
on the part of the older members, and
although some of the younger ones
were willing to make the trip, 1t was
voted that the band send in it's resig-
nation.
