.TH ! OF HIPPLE AMAZE
SENSATION AT PHILADELPHIA
OVER STOLEN SECURITIES.
Revelation Blow to Church Friend,
of Dead President Of Trust
Company.

Philadelphia, Sept. 1.-The state
ment of Receiver Earle, of the Real
Estate Trust company, that Frank K
Nipple, the late president of the con.
Germ, had stolen securities valued at
$4,000 and that the lending of S., O0O,-
600 to Adolph Segal on insufficient Sc
curity amounted to theft, created a
sensation throughout the city Friday.
The revelation was blow to Hip
pies many intimate friends, most of
whom are prominent in the Presby-
terrain church, either as clergymen or
laymen. So high was their esteem for
the man, who abhorred tobacco and
liquor and refrained from reading Sun
day papers, that not only the various
organizations in the Presbyterian
church made the trust company their
depository, but hundreds of members
of that denomination placed their
money in his company.
The number of pastors who used
the bank for their savings was excep.
tionally large. Most of them refused
to entertain the theory that Nipple
ended his life and it was difficult to
make them believe that his secret
operations were as irregular as they
are alleged to be. In addition to his
church work Mr.. Nipple took an &C
tive interest in reform politics and is
said to have been a heavy contributor
to the reformers' campaign funds in
last years notable contest in this
city.
Criticism of the failure of the d.
rectors OF the company to discover
Nipples transactions has increased,
and many of the larger creditors are
angry at what they term the negli-
gence of these men. There is pend.
inC before the local courts an appli-
cation for the appointment of a CO.
receiver who shall directly represent
the depositors and inform them of
the true condition Of the company.

to that city from Monticello, and an
order from the county Judge was

will take precautions to prevent VIC.
