TO HAVE BEEN ROBBED

NEW YORK, Aug. 27.-Expert ac-
countants We're busy all yesterday
and last night in the offices of the
Chemical National bank in lower
Broadway and was reported that
large defalcation had been discovered
in the big Institution, which has been
known for years as "Hetty Green's
Bank
Detective Sergeant McCafferty, head
of the bureau at headquarters, ana
several of his aides were out last
night searching for one of the men
in the cashiers department who is de-
clared to have disappeared with a
large amount of money.
While the reports as to the extent of
the embezzlement vary from $4,000
to 100000, no authoritative state
ment could be obtained upon the exact
amount because those of the officers
who remained were reticient.

ADJUSTMENTS
SELECT YOUR PLAY.
Binnard Stock Company Will Please
Everybody in WaIIa WaIIa.

La Belle Marie again pleased a
large audience at the Orpheum last
night. The company is playing in a
much better form than on the first
night, when they were laboring uLder
the disadvantage of too little practice,
having been cut down by the extra
performance of Saturday afternoon.
But the play last night was up to the
high standard set by much higher
priced playhouses. The show is good
and the characters we'll taken by the
popular actors of 1.-THE Binnard COM
pany.
The playhouse has been put in good
shape and while Manager Binnard
would like a better house in which to
give his plays until such place can
be found, he has fitted up The Orphe-
UNI in the best possible shape.
Ethel Martelle was better last night
even than the night before and Mont
gomery was strong in his part. Love
was a better william even than on the
first night and Miss Round as Grace
Leighton, carried the house with her
in her Interpretation of her part.
The offer of the company to put on
any play which any one may ask, has
not been taken advantage of, as yet.
This furnishes a good opportunity for
anyone to see his favorite play acted
by the popular company. Their offer
is to put on any play asked for and
many good plays should be brought
out by this offer. LA Belle Marie"
continues tonight and tomorrow night.
Beginning Thursday night the Binnard
company will put on the comedy dra-

MILL COMPANY HAS
FLOATING RESERVOIR.

ABERDEEN, Aug. 27.-The Ameri-
can Mill company has adopted a novel
scheme to keep its boilers supplied
with fresh water. When the council
gave notice that on account of the
shortage of water at the water plant
due. to the long drouth, mill COM
panies and manufactures would only
be allowed water one half day, the
American Mill company got a scow,
cut a hole in the deck and towed the
scow up the Wiskan river at a point
where it is not affected by salt and
filled the scow, which has capacity
of $4,000 gallons. When filled it is
towed back to the mill, and then the
water is pumped into the boilers of
the plant. 1t is probable the mill
company will continue this plar. here
after and save the water tolls, as
it owns it's tug and scows.

THE ANTI-CANTEEN BLUNDER.

THE ANTI CANTEEN BLUNDER.
The greatest mistake ever made in
the army management was aboilsn-

comment of a prominent officer sta-

crticising the w. C. T. U. for its
efforts in abolishing the canteen, eX-

These opinions are the result of Of
hcial observation of the effects of the
ahu-canteen law, and they are state

observation of conditions in any city
near which an army post is located.

WILL RESIGN
FROM CABINET
SECRETARY TAFT WILL ENTER
ACTIELY INTO CAMPAIGN
THIS FALL,

WASHINGTON. D. c., Aug. PA
special to the Herald from Columbus,
O., says:
Immediately after opening the Phil
lppine parliament in October, Hon. w.
II. Taft will resign the secretaryship
of war.
That act will complete his official
duties, and his formal resignation will
come by cable-if it is not already in
the presidents hands-to take effect
at that time.
Leaving the Philippines, he will
make his trip through Russia and
Germany, meeting the car ana the
kaiser, merely as an American citi-
zen,s and in no official capacity.
When he lands on United States
soil after practically completing the
circuit of the globe, he will enter ac-
lively into the campaign for the re-
publican nomination for president.
This is the secretary's program as

States transports on part of his
Journey but after that he will pay his
own way and go as an ordinary trav-
eler.

CALMER SCENES
ON WALL STREET
EFFECT OF POLITICAL AGITA-
TON FELT LESS IN STOCK
MARKET.

NEW YORK, Aug. 27.-The feeling
of apprehension with which the stock
market began the week has been re-
placed by calmer judgment. There
was much less liquidation and few
signs save in isolated instances of
selling by those whose margins were
impaired or whose confidence in the
future had fallen to a lower point.
Such Improvement as was shown,
however, was largely sentimental,
based on the belief that prices have
discounted all the more adverse condi-
tons that may arise and that hence
forth there will be less of political
agitation. or at least less response on
the part of investors to what have
formerly been regarded as disturbing
policies.

Bankers who look at conditions from
better vantage point than the aver

the idea that the trouble through
which the market has been passing is
international in character and that it
is the close relations between the
money markets of this country and
those of Europe that have produced
the tension here.
The United States markets have
not only had to absorb the lAluida
/, ton of American shareholders, but
have been forced to accept securities
valued at many millions of dollars
from investors scattered all over Eu-
rope England. Germany, France and
Holland, have greatly reduced their
holdings of American securities until
now they are probably at the lowest
level in many years. Further, the
high rates for money abroad have re-
duced the borrowing capacity of this

Prosecutor J. H. Mcdonald. That may
be a good policy all right but-well-

tainly have been instances in which
the otfense of jumping bond was ad-
ded to another Offense and still it was
thought proper and eXpedient to dis

right too. If there is an opportunity

If the hogs are in dry pen, start
in by feeding them a little green
clover at once. AS soon as the corn
is hip high, give them little of it to
eat. 1t may not add a single ounce of
flesh to their carcasses, but it will
accustom them to eating it so they
can be fed a great deal Of green corn
when it becomes large enough. The
one great mistake in feeding green
corn is that the change from dry feed
to it is made too quickly. BY start
ing in gradually now with corn and
green clover, this rapid change can be
avoided.
