under the horses feet, where he was
kicked by the animal until assistance
came. He was taken Nome and doctors

the deep cut in the head his face, arms

Boston Police Are at aStand-
still.
in SUIT CASE MURDER
Admit That All tie Evidence They
Have Is Regarding the Pur-
chase Of the Suit
Cases.

Boston, sept. 90 The situation in
The suit case murder Is substantially the
same as it was week ago when the
erewsome find was made near the float
Of the Winthrop Yacht Club All the
police have that appears tangible and
of value is the fact Of the purchase Of
two dress suit cases at pawn shops on
Pleasant street and the Identification
Of one Of them By the pawnbroker.
With the single exception Of the
pawnbrokef's story, every clew has been
run down and satisfactory account made
OF all the suspicious circumstances. The
bundle Of clothing found at Cottage
Park. the macintosh picked up near
Saratoga bridge. and the quilt recovered
near Shirley Point, ali of which the
police for q time connected with the
crime. have been eliminated from the
zone Of inquiry as worthless.
The blonde hairs, which By some Pc
culiar coincidence were found on three
Of the articles, have been subjected to
the keenest microscopic examination by
Professor Whitney or Harvard, who
found no similarity in either texture
or color, 80 that they had not come
from the head OF the same person.
The bundle of clothes which was wrap
ped IN the paper marked @R. @. Burn
ham, Dalton street, had been thrown
iato the water after the death Of Mrs.
Burnham's sister III Winthrop. They
Rad been used about the sick bed Of
The woman Mrs. Burnham refrained
from telling the police to avoid possible
embarrassment to her sister. The quilt
was claimed BY a South Boston yachts
man, whose boat had been sunk in the
harbor
The appearance yesterday OF Charles
Il. Beckwith, the Marlboro cobbler, who
came here and claimed to identify the
dress suit case, only added, for the
time. to the confusion. He told the
state police that he had mended the
case on August IA for man who, he
said, was Winthrop physician. The
police, however, are OF the opinion that
Mr.. Beekwith was mistaken in the dress
suit case, for il the story Of the pawn
broker is to be believed the case had
not been sold on August IA.
The police are now directing their
attention along these lines Of investi-
CATION, the recovery Of the second suit
pase and the identity Of the purchaser.
They look for little reward from any
other source The work of the diver

THIs FoRGER Vas sLIcK.
Got Securities Valued at ss5o,oOO from
New York Bank.

New York. Sept. 2s.--The details Of
scheme whereby the National City
bank of this city recently was yictimized
by the clever forger came out yester-
day. The forger presented bogus
check bearing the name of a well known
stock exchange firm and received in re-
turn securities valued at about S350,000.
Pearl & Co.. stock brokers, in William
street, recently negotiated a one-day
loan for 100000 with this institution.
On Wednesday a check for the amount
plus $3.50 for interest was presented
at the bank by stranger who received
the security deposited by Pearl & Co.,
for their loan.
The bank is one with which Pearl &
Co. never had an account so the forgery
was not discovered until the check had
passed through the clearing house ex-
changes, when it was branded as fctiti-
Gus.
A private detective agency was called
IN and transfer Of the securities was at
once stopped. The detectives intimate
that they have clew to the identity Of
the forger, who is believed 70 have had
accompIices.
1t Is believed that the forger had an
intimate knowledge Of Pearl Il Co.'S af-
fairs. 4. Il. Slaybaek, junior member
of the firm, said;
Il have been asked to diyulge the
name OF the bank concerned. can only
say that it is rich and if the forgery
should involve any loss the bank win be
amply able to stand it.
"The amount Of the forged checls, /"
added Mr.. Slayback, represents a days
interest at four and one-half per cent.
As matter Of fact the loan is recorded on
our books at four and one-fourth per
cent. Clearly somebody must have had
knowledge of the loan. Vet had it been
some one in our employ the interest rate
would have been computed at four and
one-quarter per cent"
The securities include 1000 shares
United States Steel common, 900 shares
Rock Island common, 1000 shares Me-
tropolitan Street Railway, roo shares
