object OF search by the police. English

teered to change a twenty dollar bill for
Samuel NJ Plumley. a contractor Of 1145
New Hampshire avenue, and failed to re-
turn the money.
Plumley went into a grocery store at
Third street and Indiana avenue yester-
day afternoon. and asked for change for
twenty-dollar bill. The storekeeper did
not have the money, and a young man
who was standing near the door. volun-
teered to 90 across the street and get the
change. Believing him to be an employe
Of the store, Plumley gave him the
money. That was the last he saw OF

BANK CLERKS GIVE OUTING
Sixth Annual Event of Chapter at
Marshall Hall.
Believed that One Thousand Persons
Enjoyed Excursion on
the Manchester.

The sixth annual outing OF the Wash
ingtou Chapter Of the American Institute
Of Banking held yesterday at Marshall
Hall. proved as successful as any of those
in the past. both in the size Of the crowds
in attendance and the evident good time
all enjoyed.
When the Charles Manchester LEFT the
wharf with the first crowd in the after
noon, there were several hundred persons
aboard. The evening boat. which left
Washington at $50 o'clock. carried almost
twice as many. so that IL was estimated
that more than 1000 persons took IN this
excursion.
Few OF the early afternoon picnickers
returned home when the afternoon boat
left, SD that when the whole crowd was
gathered on the grounds al Marshall
Hall fl looked something like the Capital
on Inauguration Day-only different.
Dancing formed the principal amuse-
ment outside Of looking into the Potomac.
although the athletic games attracted the
attention OF every one except the really
engaged couples who were not expected
20 look at anything long.
The music furnished on board the Mac
alester while going and returning was
pleasing. while that furnished for the
dancing AZ the pavilion at the Hall was
OF surprising merit
