AMERICAN TENDERS ABROAD.
Street Car Equipment to Be Introduced
in Austria-Hungary.

American rails, cars, engines and other
accessories of passenger traffic have long
been on the Austro-Hungarian market and
in use on street and steam railroads of the
empire and now it would seem that the
form of tenders used on street cars in the
United States has also met with the ap-
prevail of railway authorities of that coun-
try Further than this it is evident, from
a letter written by the Austro-H Hungarian
acting consul general of New York, to the
Commissioners a day or two ago, that the
pickup tenders required to be used
within the District of Columbia may be
chosen for equipment of cars in Austro-
Hungary.
In the letter written by the acting con-
sui general the section of the police reg
ulations requiring a certain style of fend-
ers to be placed on cars in the capital Us
quoted. and the further statement made
that the Austrian ministry for railroads
would like to confer with the manufac-
turers of the devices. An inspector in the
engineer department has collected the

product meets with the local regulations,

ALLEGHENY BANK SCANDAL.
Looters Alleged to Have Hidden Their
Tracks

Sensation follows sensation in the extri-
cation of the cunningly devised and lntri-
cately executed methods by which the En-
terprise Bank of Allegheny, Pa, was looted
of its more than 100000 of assets, and by
which the state machine gang fondly hoped
to cover up their tracks successfully.
That the discount book had been carried
away and possibly destroyed in an effort
to cover up the systematic thievery that
had been going on in the bank, the fact
that Lemert s. Cook had been employed by
Cashier T. Lee Clark to sell the Santa Fe
Central railroad the Andrews Kennedy
Torrance enterprise; that the grossest sort
of irregularities were practiced by Clark
in the matter of the rehypothecation of col
lateral, and that the controller Of the cur
rency estimates the shortage at 81 800 900
at the present stage of the investigation
were the developments of yesterday.
Not only has 1t been discovered that notes
for more than half a million dollars are
missing but it is learned in dispatch from
Pittsburg that the discount book, by which
these notes and other transactions could be
traced, is also gone.
1t seems as though a supreme effort had
been made to sweep away even the last YES
tise that might lead to the detection and
prosecution of the parties who conspired
with the dead cashier to loot the institu-
ton
If the discount book could be found, and
IL il had been properly kept, which some Of
the books already found have not been, it
is said that Receiver Cunningham would
soon be enabled to arrive at some definite
conclusion as to the exact amount of plum
der the bank WreckerS got.
Astounding revelations to how check
ing accounts were carried in the Enterprise
Bank and as to how collateral was rehy-
pothecated to raise money was REVEALED
yesterday afternoon in the hearing of the
application of d. l. Patterson for a pre-
lminary injunction to restrain the Enter
prise Bank, Lemert s. Cook and the Guar
antee Title and Trust Company from dis
posing of or incumbering fifteen shares of
Duquesne National Bank stock. Patterson
claims that the stock was given the Enter
prise Bank as security for loan, and that
It turned up in the Guarantee Title and
Trust Company.
The attorneys representing the defendants
in the action claimed that the stock be-
longed to the persons who had 1t in their
possession, that is If the transfer was made
with the proper power of attorney, which
was the case in this instance. The court,
however, held that the stock belonged to
the person to whom it was credited on the
books of the Duquesne Bank. 1t had never
gone out of the name of Patterson, the
plaintiff.
Arrangements are being made for meet
ing of the 5000 depositors Thursday night.
Steps are being taken to form an organia-
ton for their protection and for the prose-.
cution of the 1ooters OF the institution. The
meeting will be held in the Manchester
Presbyterian Church, Allegheny

SurmOunted by ten burning candies or RED,
white and blue.
The program of the evening was entirely
informal, the music being furnished by

Mrs. Isabel WOrrell Ball, department secre-

of its service under its ''stepmother," Mrs.

Miss Durham stated. the corps owed much
of its prosperity, because of her uniform
kindness and willingness 10 aid and assist
her baby through its few infantile dis
ORDERS The actual sum expended in relief
work during the decade OF Thomas Corps
existence Miss Durham stated to be con-
sideraby over 5000, while the amount of
relief extended in clothing, food and other
ways than money amounted to over
thousand dollars. In concluding, Miss Dun
ham said that Thomas Corps had been sin
gularly fortunate in having always the ear
nest support and cooperation of George II.
Thomas Post.

Presidents Speech.

TT is a privilege for any President to come
on board squadron of American warships
such as these, not alone to the ships,
but to see the men who handle them From
the admiral down through the entire ships
company, every American should be proud
of what l have seen aboard this ship; the
dlSclpilne, the ready subordination of each
man, whether officers or enlisted men to
duty, the care taken of the men and in PC
turn the eager. intelligent self-respec ting
zeal of each man in doing his work. What
must impress especially any observer is
now essential it is that every individual on
snip like these should do his whole duty
ana IN any crisis more than his duty The
results as | see it in this ship is a triumph
not only Of organization and discipline but
OF the ready zeal with which each individ-
ual performs his allotted task AT any time
some emergency may arise in which the
SAFETY of the entire ship will depend uron

OF some one man among you, perhaps an
oihceF, perhaps an enlisted man. ANY ma n

Mrs. Hamilton's RESPONSE.

Mrs. Anna Sanborn Hamilton. who organ
lied the corps, spoke in response to Miss
Dunhams address and pleasantly related
the incidents of organization, and many of
the excellent things that the corps had ac-
complished during the first year and since.
Mrs. Ball also spoke of what she considered
some of the very best work that had been
done in the department accomplished by
the corps which she said she had helped to
institute. Col. Crisp, commander of the
post when the corps was organized, paid
tribute to its membership and its devotion
to the principles of the Grand Army and
the Womans Relief Corps.
Past Commander Seavy presented to the
corps a large framed portrait of Gen. Grant
and took occasion to say some pleasant
things about the women who, he said, kept
life in Thomas Post, a sentiment which
was received with applause. Col Samuel
Bright gave a recitation descriptive of
Sheridan's arrival at Cedar creek and there
were many other pleasant features on the
spirit moving" program.
Mrs. Littlejohn, president of the corps
welcomed her guests and those of the corps
and invited them to the overlooking tables
where the birthday cake was then pre-
scented.
The women who on the part of Thomas
the birthday party were: Mrs. f. v Web
ster, Mrs. Emma Littlejohn. Mrs. Gertrude
Morgan, Mrs Mary Honn. Miss Title Dun
ham. Miss Jennie Stretch, Mrs Mary
