ROBBERY IS GROWING.
Is Now Pnt at Eight Hundred
Thousand Dollars.
MONEY UNACCOUNTED FOR
What Has Become of the Cash That
Douglass and bennett Are Alleged
to Have Realized on Valuable Sc
curities Is Mystery.

New York, April 30.-The big bond
robbery, in which the Trust Company
of America was the victim, continues
an absorbing subject In the financial
district, where every development is
eagerly scrutinized.
The robbery, at first put down as G
$4,000 affair, has steadily grown until
now 1t appears that securities aggre-
eating 100000 in value had been
taken by William o. Douglass, the bond
clerk under arrest. These figures are
reached as the result of an interesting
interview by a member of the execu-
tive committee of the trust company,
who says it took $165,O0O to redeem
the stocks hypothecated with brokers
for loans by o. M. bennett, who is un-
der arrest in connection with the rob-
berry and that the securities were
pledged for less than one-third of their
value. He also said that it was $780,
900 and not $4,000 worth of securi-
ties that were hidden in Broker Den.
nett's bed at the Manhattan club.
Taken at the executive committee
mans own figures that Douglass and
bennett realized only a part-less
than third On the average-it can be
seen that the $4,000 that the trust
company has lost on the outstanding
securities represents value of nearly
100000 found in the bed of Broker
bennett, makes 100000. What has
become of the money Douglass and
bennett raised is unexplained. The
trustee who talked said that while he
was of the opinion that much of this
had been lost in speculation, he felt
sure that the pair had snug sum put
away somewhere
