STOCK EXCHANGE PAID $4,000.
Money Taken From Waterbury Natlona
Bank Was Lost in Speculation by
Teller Farrar,

Teller arrar.
The Waterbury National bank has re-
covered $4,000 in a suit against the Metro
politan stock exchange of Boston for sums
alleged to have been invested by the de-
fauting teller, John c. Farrar, who is now
completing a sentence in the state prison,
at Windsor. This award is the result of a
long process of litigation in the Massa-
chusetts courts which has been carried
on for the past five years. The money
was traced into the hands Of the Metro
politan stock exchange. The bank placed
its case in the hands Of Attorneys Ander-
son and Cushman, of Boston.
Both sides agreed to leave the case
to an auditor, and Mr.. Nay, Of Boston.
was selected as satisfactory to each side.
The bank sued for the full amount with
interest and in return the stock exchange
brought claim for $4,000 to s6000 which il
alleged had been returned to Farrar on
his investments. The case was fully in
vestigated by the auditor, with the re-
suit that he gave a decision in favor of
the bank.
The stock exchange, however, baked
at this decision and appealed to the SUI
perior court. This court sustained the
rendering of the auditor. Then the stock
exchange took another appeal to the SUI
preme judicial court, but before any YER
dict was rendered an agreement was
reached by which the bank has recovered
$4,000 Of the sum lost. The Metropolitan
exchange had an office in Waterbury at
the time Farrar was INDUCING in specula-
tons.
