CHANGED DATE MAY
CLEAR Up MYSTERY
Detectives Say Records of Bank
Have Been Changed to
Save Ex-EmplOye

new element has been interjected
into the mystery of the alleged theft
Of $4,000 from the safe deposit vaults
Of the French-American bank. which
became known about week ago
through the discovery by detectives
working on the case that the dates OF
the safe deposit records for June l.
and IS have been changed. Who did
this is not known. but the police say
it presumably was done 10 establish an
alibi for the bank employe against
whom suspicion was at first directed
by Henri Cailleaud, the depositor who
was robbed.
When Cailleaud first made the charge
that $1,000 had been stolen from his
safe deposit box he attributed the al
legged theft TO T. Bonnet, a former en-
ploye Of the bank, and asserted his be-
lief that Bonnet had taken an impress
sion of his key while visiting him at
his home In Sonoma county. The bank
officials secuted this charge and openly
asserted that Cailleaud had made up
the story Of the robbery in order to
avoid carrying through a loan trans
action to which be had agreed
In substantiauon of the theory that
Bonnet could have had nothing 70 do
with the T0bDeTE Lle nank QInCldlS pro-
duced the books OF the safe deposit
vaults. showing that Bonnet had sew
cred his connection with the bank
June Il and that CailIeaud had Wis
tied his box in the vault June Is. Now
the detectives have discovered, they
assert, that the date stamp used in
making entries in the deposit vault
books was changed to make it appear
that Bonnet left the bank June L.
while as a matter OF fact he did not
leave until June Is
No charges have been made by the
detectives as TO who changed this date
stamp or whom il was changed to pro-
tect, but with this new clew TO aid
them efforts have been redoubled to
solve the problem. If II can be con-
clusively shown that Bonnet did not
leave the bank until after Cailleaud
visited his box for the last time the
bank alibi will fall and color will be
added TO Cailleauds S original charge
Meantime no answer has been re-
csived from the cablegram requesting
Bonnet to return from France. for
which country he set out Immediately
after leaving the bank His present
Whereabouts are unknown. He was
cabled for by the bank officials as soon
as the alleged theft was reported.

refused last night to discuss the new
