With the Trust Company and o. KID
The Securities He Offered for the
Big Loans He Obtained.

Philadelphia, Sept 6.-Rumors OF the
arrests of the directors of the looted
Real Estate Trust Co, fill the air
today. District Attorney Bell declared
in the most emphatic terms that no
man will be spared in the effort to
bring to justice those responsible for
the dissipation Of the depositors' mon
ey. The statement is made that two
directors, who are also members of
the bar, have profited to the extent of
$750,000 in the past three years by ac-
cepting fees from Adolph Segal for
passing on the security rendered by
him for loans from the bank aggre-
eating $5,3O0,0O0. So far as is known

who were arrested yesterday on the
charges of aiding in the wrecking of
the company, was held before Magis-

several hours.
The court room was crowded with
men well known in financial circles.
District Attorney Bell, in outlining his
case, said he would prove that the ac=
cused men, with Hipple, were engaged
in gigantic conspiracy to defraud
the trust company, and that as a re-
suit of their acts more than $5.000,000
had been abstracted from the institu-
ton and embezzled for the use of one
man, Adolph H. Segal
The active persons in the conspir-
acy, he said, were Nipple and Segal.
The passive agents were North and
Collingwood, he continued, who wick
edly and wrongfully stood by and saw
others loot the institution and never
gave warning.
Mr.. Bell said the institution had
62,000 depositors and the deposits
amounted to between $6,500,O00 and
81, 100000. Among the depositors was

Havana, Sept. 6.-Peace is in the
air. and on all sides there is hope that
matters viii be arranged between the

suspended. Delegates informally
chosen by a small group of veterans
started today to the camps of Pine
Guerra, Colonel Ashbert, General Guz-
man and other insurgent leaders to
learn what will be acceptable to the
fighting leaders of the revolution. A
similar committee started for Cienfue-
gos to consult the insurgent leaders in
Santa Clara province. Late this after

reco and other veterans held confer
ence with Alfredo Zayas, leader OF the
liberal party, which, however, did not
result in am understanding. At the
same time the executive committee of
the moderate party held conference

cussed.

Ed johnson, who works at the Horne
Planning mill and Arthur Price met in
front of the Novelty theater last night
and engaged in a wordy row and re-
paired to the bottoms district to fight
it out, with the result that Johnson
received a bad cut in his side from z
knife which he says was in the handa
of Price
The man had not agreed for some time
past and as usual there was a woman
in the case. After they had discussed
the matter in a rather heated manner
they went TO Seventh street between
Adams and Jefferson street and prepar-
ed to settle the matter according to the
code, fists to be the weapons.
After fighting for some time Johnson
seemed to be getting the better of the
ARRAY and he claims that Price slipped
the blade of q pocket knife in among his
floating ribs and gave it a twist and
then the affair became. a foot race end
ing at the Arcade restaurant where john
son lives. The doctors think that john
son will make a live of it providing COM
