CASTLE DARES THE
GANG TO ARREST HIM

Homer L Castle, law partner of for
mer Governor William A. Stone, OF
Pittsburg, made speech in New Cas-
tie, Pa, on Tuesday evening, October
"a. II will be remembered that It was
Mr. Castle who first called attention to
the perilous condition OF the Enterprise
Bank, OF Allegheny City, and forged
the chain Of evidence which convicted
the gang politicians OF manipulating
the treasury balance and using the
state funds for personal purposes.
On the morning OF the day of the
New Castle speech the Pittsburg Ga
xette, the gang organ of Western
Pennsylvania, owned and directed by
George w. oliver, denounced Mr.. Cas-
tie vehemently. "He ought to be ar
rested" the gang organ shrieked Re-

Mr. Castle said:

What is this Pennsylvania Devel-
opment Company" Mr.. Gwinner ask
ed. He was told for the first time that
the development company had been
fostered by William II. Andrews, T.
Lee Clarke, Francis ]. Torrance, Ar
thur Kennedy and others.
"How much state deposit did the En-
terprise Bank have?" Mr.. Gwinner was
asked.
81 don't know, but think about
5000, ,O00."
Don't you know that at the last
report, October l, the bank had $5S2,-
900 of current state funds, and had
previously been given 100000 of the
sinking fund, which does not need to
be published by the state treasurer or
your bank?"
"Yes, | remember that 1t was some
thing like that, but about two weeks
ago the state treasurer withdrew $780,
600, and yesterday the bank received
$50,000 as a deposit from the state
treasurer. / don't know the exact
amount we have at present, but il is
something such as you mention. This
would make about s7S2,OOO the state

About year ago the bank carried

is only capitalized at $4,000
Donations For Campaign.
How did you come to get this state
deposit?" Mr.. Gwinner was asked.
That's what / asked Clarke" he re-
piled. Clarke told me he had only to
give the Republican Campaign Com
mittee a donation each year, and this
is how he got the money.
I'm insisted that he had to give
something for the use of the money. l
could not believe that the state treas
urer would give us so much money I'M
less we gave him something in return.
But Clarke only insisted he had paid
some money to the Campaign Com
mittee.
Does the money you gave to the
campaign show on the books? | ask
ed Clarke. He said no; there was moth
ing to indicate that he had given poll
ticians any money.
Then how do you account for the
money If you don't put it on the
books7' said.
"'Oh, you leave that to me- Clarke
said, and he waved me off. He always
jollied me along when l wanted to
know what was going on"

POLITICAL OBLIGATIONS
MYsTERIoUSLY AesTRAcTED
FROM BANK ASSETS

The Frenzied Financiers Of the
Gang" who were caught in the wreck
of the Enterprise National Bank of
Allegheny City are taking desperate
chances in an effort to destroy the
evidences Of their responsibility for
that disaster In other words, they
have stolen or had secreted the notes
which represented their obligations to
the bank for the state funds taken out
for their individual uses.
Notes which the bank should hold
for large loans to politicians and 9TH
ers are reported missing. Their face
value is probably several hundred
thousand dollars. The total OF this
loss is one of the secrets which Re-
ceiver Cunningham is keeping to him
self. One report is that it will reach
as high as 100000.
The most careful and repeated
searching among the bank papers has
failed to bring the notes to light, al
though the records of the institution
show that they should be there.
They are believed to represent the
loans which the directors of the bro
ken concern say were made by T. Lee
Clark, the suicide cashier, without the
knowledge of the board.
Clark, before he ended, with pistol
ball, the troubles which were heaped
upon him by the Gang, may have de-
stroyed or hidden them. There is evil
dence that for some months prior to
The crash the bank papers were badly
mixed.
Among the notes which the receiver
has found are said to be some old
ones, on which the time had expired,
with nothing to indicate that they had
been paid or renewed. The system by
which operations were conducted Is
one of the deepest mysteries which the
governments bank experts have ever
been called upon to solve.
The possibility is suggested that the
politicians who got the money on
overdue and unrenewed notes, after
pocketing the spoil obtained through
Clark, left the cashier to his fate.
Then, unable to make good the loss
or explain he killed himself
II the missing notes are never found.
II will be an immense relief to those
politicians who got the money on
them. The bank records are believed
to be so imperfect as not TO reveal
their names.
Failure to find the notes which

RABBIT SEASON NOW OPEN

The season for hunting rabbits
or hares opened yesterday, Novem-
Der Ist, and continues during the
month.
The game laws with their several
amendments have become quite
complicated and unless persons are
careful they will be led astray and
may commit violation of the law
in spite OF their efforts to avoid
such contingency. 1t is much to
be regretted that just on the eve OF
the opening of the season there
should be so much uncertainty as
to the law on rabbits.
An article is going the rounds of
the newspapers to the effect that III
the opinion OF the Hazleton Game
and Fish Protective Association
the State has issued two kinds of
game law books and that there is
discrepancy between them, one of
the books stating that the open
season for rabbits begins on No,
vember Ist and expires on Decem-
Der Ist and the other that the sea-
son opens on November Ist and ex-
tends to December 18th.
Persons who pin their faith to a
Digest OF the Game Laws" by DR..
Joseph Kalbfus, need make no mis-
take, as to the rabbit or any other
kind Of game. DR.. Kalbfus is Sec
retary of the State Game Commis-
sion and his Digest should be
perfectly authoritative.
In the Digest" in the Act of 'o7,
section s, the season is given from
November Ist to December 18th,
but if the reader is careful to note
the amendment indicated at the
bottom of the page he will see that
by later law (April 22nd, I9o5)
given on page 40, section IL, the
op( II season for hare or rabbit is
during the month of November
each year, as set forth in the open
ing OF this article, This probably
expa aims the apparent discrepancy
in the law that puzzles some people.
The penalty for killing rabbit
out Of season is ten dollars.
