National City Officials Dispute
Theory that $780, 900 For
gerry Was ''Inside job"
EASY FOR MESSENGERS.
Other Outsiders Could Also Get
Posted for SWindle With

The oficials Of the National City
Bank, speaking through Cashier Horace
NJ. Kilborn, to-day denied e~mphatically
that any employee OF the bank had any
forgery by which thieves got over
$4,000 Of securities on Wednesday
and advanced the theory that boy bank
messengers were behind the robbery.
From ghe fact that the \bank rate of
interest. L. per cent. was proslded
for on the forged check which was used.
while the rate OF interest on the books

is 41-4 per cent. the Pinkertons and
ferred that IL ghere had been a leak
about the loan anywhere 1t must have
come from the bank.

disposes of his suspicion effectually.
and he proved in convincing manner
that 1t would have peer very easy
for any one to find opt about the Pearl

otner loans made the same day at the

hearing was before an old fashioned
Justice Of the peace, who had no high
regard for the ways Of men from the
city. At some point IN the case the
magistrate put IN a few remarks. and
the visiting lawyer collided with him.
The discussion grew warm. and at last
the magistrate. forgetting his dignity
and his position. became personal.

out.

Titles In Germany.

The question Of title is one Of the
most delicate in Germany, a fact Of
which the stranger is constantly re-
minded in intercourse with the people,
particularly with the women. Frau
Professor, Frau Director, Frau Doctor,
are most particular about their hus-
bands titles being attached to their
own names. But when 1t comes to mil
itary circles it is different. and both
men and women protest vigorously
against this sharing Of titles. Lieuten-
ant Won B. objects to having his wife
addressed as Frau Lieutenant, which
title belongs as well to the wife Of
