SAYS 1T is A PLOT TO HARASS
Accused Man Was President of Trust
Company of the Republic, Now
Defunct.

New York, March 17.-Daniel lie
Roy Dresser, brother-in-law of George
w. Vanderbilt, who has been before
the public a great deal ever since the
Trust Company of the Republic, of
which he was president, collapsed fol-
lowing the United States Shipbuilding
fiasco, was arrested in front of l Wall
street yesterday afternoon by Detec-
tive Woodbridge on warrant charging
him with misappropriating $4,000 in
January, 1903
Mr.. Dresser was arraigned before
Magistrate Barlow in the Tombs police
court and paroled in custody of his
counsel for examination on March %.
Dresser Alleges Animus.
Mr.. Dresser, who seemed to take his
arrest lightly, said it was only another
attempt to harass him because he had
brought suit for 100000 against some
promoters of the shipbuilding company.
which, after many delays, has been set
down for trial on April 6.
The complainant in the case against
Dresser is William S. Andrews, who
is attorney for John w. Young, one of
the promoters of the shipbuilding COM
pany and one to whom options on the
various plants that were TO make up
the combination ran. Young is a son
of Brigham Young of Utah.
Refused to Return Them.
According to the affidavit made by
Andrews, he turned over to Dresser
in December, 1902, 31G bonds of the
snlpbuilding company, on which Dres-
ser was to negotiate a loan. The bonds
! belonged to Young, and Dresser refus.
ed to return them after he had failed
to secure the loan, until Andrews had
! agreed to turn over to Dresser $4,000
to make good three drafts drawn by
| Dresser in favor of Young, who was
then in Paris
! Andrews alleges Dresser paid two
of these drafts. amounting to $4,000
but did not pay the $4,000 one remain
ing. Young. in the affidavit, says he
cashed all the drafts through Baror
tOppenheim in Paris, and that he sueC
in Paris for the $4,000 draft which
Dresser did not make good.
| Tells Another Story.
A different story of the transaction
is told by Mr.. Dresser's counsel Two
drafts for $4,000 were paid promptly
when presented, according to Dres
ser's lawyer, but the draft for $4,000
was never presented.
| Dresser became bankrupt shortly af
terward. but according to his lawye
the claim for $4,000 never was pre-
sented to his trustee, and no demand
since has been made for it. Mr. Dres
ser since got a release from bank
ruptcy.
