BELMONT BANK WAS WRECKED.
Missing President Is Sought to Tell
Who Was Responsible.

Pittsburg, May THE affairs of the
belmont National bank at belmont,
which failed last week, are in very
bad shape. A partial examination Of
the books reveals the fact that the
bank has been looted and wrecked and
arrests and sensational disclosures
are expected.
1t is said that Joseph R. McQuaide,
the missing president of the bank, is
not wanted for having wrecked the in.
stltution, but that if he is found he
will be asked to explain who did the
looting, as it is believed that he
knows. A complete examination of
the books will be made within a week
and submitted to washington.
There is no intimation as to the
identity of the guilty parties, but Nc
Quaides friends declare that he is not
guilty. They admit that they do not
know his present whereabouts, which
is causing them a great deal of con-
Germ. His son declared that none of
the members of the family has the
slightest idea where he is. 1t is, be-
lieved that he is hiding, trying to
cover up the crookedness of other per-
sons. A permanent receiver for the
bank will be named within a few
DAYS.

FEELING OF THANKFULNEss.
Many Mine Workers Say They Always
Opposed a Strike.

Wilkes-Barre, May IA feeling OF
deep thankfulness that the threatened
anthracite strike has been averted
prevails throughout the region. Mine
workers generally now declare that
they we're decidedly opposed to a
strike because they did not think II
was justified by the conditions and they
are loud in their praise of President
Mitchell for averting it when it seem.
ed so imminent.
They say that Mitchell will gain
greater strength with the union and
with the public than if he had ordered
a strike and after bitter struggle Of
eight or 10 months the union had man.
aged to win an increase In wages.
Operators say that Mitchell stood for
peace because he realized that a
strike would result in the defeat of
the union, and that defeat meant the
death of the organization in this re.
gion and the loss of all his power
here.
They also say that with the strikes
in the soft coal region it would have
been utterly impossible for the union
to sustain strike here for any
length of time and that an anthracite
strike threatened the sweeping defeat
of the union throughout the entire
country. They anticipate that the
membership of the union will now de.
crease rapidly and that the men will
not build it up again until the sum-
mer and fall of 1908.

CAN MAN FORGE HIS OWN NAMEa
Pittsburg Courts May Decide Dispute
Between Prominent Men.

Pittsburg, May S.-The local courts
may be compelled to decide whether
or not man can forge his own name.
The dispute grew out of pool game
at the Duquesne club between Bryan
Robertson, a wellknown iron broker,
and Kennedy Ewing, who is wealthy,
for $1,000 a side. Ewing lost and
wrote check for the amount, payable
at the Second National bank.
Robertson deposited the check and
the next day was told that it was a
forgery. Robertson declared that he
had seen Ewing sign it. The cashier,
however, produced his book of sigma
lures and proved that the name on
the check was not Ewing's legal sig
nature. Ewing is alleged to have
treated the matter as joke, and Rob-
ertson consulted with John McCleave,
an attorney, who now has the case in
his hands. Both Robertson and Ew.
ing refuse to discuss the case.
