Nipples Forgeries.

Forger1es for more than q quar-

K. Nipple, the suicide president
Of the defunct Real Estate Trust
Company, have been discovered
by Receiver Earle, The latter
made this statement late tonight,
adding that he had no idea where
Nipples villiany would end.
Nipple, in order to meet his i'm
mense overdarfts, used the names
of the most prominent business
men of this city on notes which
in some cases amounted to $780,
900.
The president had taken copies
of the signatures of a number Of
business men while some of their
checks Or negotiable securities
passed through his hands, but in
every case he avoided the use of
the name of a real estate company
