BANK W|LLSETT
Former Pittsburg Cashier
Breaks Long Silence.
Because Of Revelations Banks
Assets Will Be Increased.
DefauIter Owns Many Shares Of
Mining Securities.

Pittsburg, June 4.-According to re-
ports William Montgomery, former
cashier Of the defunct Allegheny Ma
tional Bank of Pittsburs, who is in
Jail charged with the misapplicatlon
of over 100000 of the banks funds, has
broken his sphinx-like silence and
made a statement to Robert Lyons,
receiver of the institution. AS result
of the revelations made by Montgom-
ery it is said that the bank, with Il
small assessment on the stockholders,
will pay all the depositors.
The conference between the receiver
and cahier is said to have developed
the fact that Montgomery had a ma
MIA for buying mining stocks and
owns 100000 shares of securities in
various companies. Some of them it
is believed, may be used in adding to
the assets of the bank, but it is re-
ported many of them represent I'M
mense losses over the original prices.
So far rs the work of clearing up the
affairs of the bank has progressed,
there is now on hand 100000 in cash.

BUSINESS SLACK.
Beef Concern May Reduce
Divide nds Next Month.
American Housewife Is Buy
ing Much Less Meat.
Has Already Cut Down Her Pur-
chases 20 Per Cent.

New York, June 4.-The American
housewife is taking her own revenge
out of the beef trust. According to a
statement just issued by the packers
combine, she has cut down her pur-
clases of meat 20 per cent. and there's
no telling how little she'll buy when
the summer comes, with its abundance
of fresh fruit and vegetables.
The unusually wet spring has
brought promise of exceedingly boun-
tiful crops, and everything is cheap
er in the eating line except meat.
An Armour official quoted in a trade
paper says:
II GO not know what substitute the
public has found for meat, but [ do
know that all the big packers have OK
pcrienced this year the longest con-
tinucd period of bad business they
ever knew. The Americans are pecu-
liar in their demands. A certain class
of trade, the very best. want porter
house steak and rib roasts, and they
pay 2ny price in reason, just as they
do for choice breakfast bacon. The

good showing in cash sales. but the

antine established in Curacao against
all Venezuelan ports, President Cas-

for that island. Fortunately there have
been no cases of plague in any of the
ports except La Guaira.

 Although the New Liverpool Salt Company has apparently scored tenn porary victory, the defense by no means has exhausted it's resources, says the Los Angeles Times.
