els A. Whitney, president OF tho wachu-

mailed at Leomlnster.
On Dec. II. Mr.. Whitney took from his
vault In the Leominster Safety company
four notes. which were payable TO the
bearer and endorsed by him. In some
manner the securities vanished, though
just when or how Mr.. Whitney cannot
tell. After spending a few days in per-
sonal investigation Of the matter he made
public the news of his loss and notified
eastern financial centres. No trace of
tho notes, however. could be found until
this morning, upon opening his mail. Mr.
Whitney found the papers enclosed In an
envelope bearing the Leominster post
mark No letter accompanied the pack
age and Mr.. Whitney has no clue TO the
sender. In view of this fact IL is not
likely that an Investigation into the case
