PARIS HAS DR.. JEYKLL CASE.
Clerk at $50 Month Said to Have
Robbed Bank Of 100000,


New York, Aug. 26.-Paris has d
since the Humbert case, says the Her
aid correspondent.
Until the end of July Jean .Gallay
was punctual employe of a great
Paris bank, earning the monthly sal
airy of $50, out of which he maintained
a wife and two children. At present ne
is said to be a fugitive aboard char
tered steam yacht, which left Las PAL
mas August 9, for Buenos Ayres. Dis
coveries of clerical manipulations in
the banks books are said to indicate a
shortage of about 100000. Word was
received yesterday by the police that
the yacht had arrived at Bahia, Brazil,
and the party aboard was under ar
rest
A man supposed to be Gallay de-
clared to the Bahia police that he was
q Belgian. NJ. Hamard, chief of the
Paris detective service, Immediately
cabled to Bahia for further news and
ordered the French detectives nearest
Bahia to go Immediately to the town
to take possession of the prisoner as
soon as the extradition formalities are
accomplished.
For some months prior to his an
nusl vacation, which began August 1,
Galaxy according to the police, had
been on the best of terms with a we'll
known French actress. Outside the
bank he is said to have used various
high-sounding titles and led a merry
career. All this was learned during an
investigation which began when Gallay
failed to return from his vacation on
the appointed day. Pursuing their
chase the detectives learned that the
clerk had chartered a steam yacht and
sailed for Havre with two women and
a large supply Of provisions.
N clew to the alleged fugitive was
obtained thru a letter mailed at Las
Palmas by the maid who accompanied
the actress. Detectives all over the
world were at once instructed to
watch for the yacht.

Today's running Of the Futurity.
Americas richest 2-year-old stakes,
will be the eighteenth renewal. 1t IS
the banner event of the metropolitan
racing season and always draws the
largest and most representative crowd
of the year. After two days of driz-
zling rain, the skies cleared during the
night, but the going is certain to be
slow. and the record hung up last year
by Artful is considered likely to re-
main unbroken. Indeed, this years
list of contestants contains no such
maryels as Artful, Tradition and Sys-
onby.
It is well balanced lot Of youngsters
deprived by the death of William ..
whitney of the years best two-year-
olds. whose nominations became void.
None of those carded stands out
prominently and the uncertainty thus
given to the struggle will make 1T of
extreme interest. Harry Payne Whit
ney's colt Timber, with the Belmont
pair, Woolwich and Bridgeman; Orr
mondale, owned by w. o. B. MacDon-
ough, of California, and ]. A. Benefits

bulk Of public support in the betting
ring. In view Of the heavy going it is
expected the Milltown stable will add
Atheling, the colt athlete whose breed
ing gives him liking for the mud.
The Keene pair will be backed, but
so far this season these two COM
mander colts have disappointed their
breeder. Both have shown fast work
only to fall short when it came to ac-
tual racing. Accountant carries the
top weight owing to the winning of
several stakes and, experts assert he
will be unequal to the task. Many
shrewd trainers and betters will sup
port Flip Flap in the belief that a
better rider than she had in her losing
races at Saratoga and an even break,
at the post will win today. Jacobite,
Jerry Weinberg, Vendor and Veronese
are most prominent in the balance list.
The last named, =. he colors of w. C.
