Pittsburg. May l3-The Allegheny
National bank shortage suddenly
jumped from 1859 900 to S1,25OOOO.
William Montgomery. the cashier.
given up by his bOndsmen. was releas
ed after his bail had been doubled,
but is still under constant guard OF
four detectives. his friends declaring
they fear he will attempt suicide.
Forged paper for large amounts is
said to have been found In the bank
by Examiner W. L. Folds. Directors OF
the bank held an all-night session and
contend that $500, 600 Of the new short
age could be recovered Immediately;
that city and state funds we're safe,
and that the banks surplus and undi-
vided profits Of $S29.OOO would take
care Of the loss.
Bank Examiner Folds refused TO at
firm this statement. There were ru-
mors that part OF the Sl.500O00 city
funds and $4,000 state funds were
ieopardized by the latest develop
ments, and the report was partially
confirmed that the First National bank
had offered to take charge OF the
liquidation OF the Allegheny National
bank
The announcement by Examiner Folds |
that the shortage would reach S1,25O.-
900 was not made until Cashier Mont
gomery had been taken into custody
by the United States marshal.
George E. Tener and Richard r.
Quay, who were on MOntgomery's
bend for $4,000 appeared in United
States court and offered to surrender
Montgomery as soon as he could be
found.
The bondsmen explained their &C
ton by declaring that they believed
Montgomery's mental condition to be
such that he would end his life when
he learned that he had been formally
accused OF the embezzlement Of a
larger sum. They said they believed
he would be safer in jail. He was
found in the Frick building and imme-
diately taken into custody.
For two hours they sweated Mont
gomery in the United States marsha's

HARTBRlDGE MYSTERY
CLEARED UP BY DEATH
Wife Of Thaw Attorney Dies in
PittSurg Hospital,

PITTSBURG, Pa, July 17.-Fol-
lowing an illness OF ten days in the
Homeopathic hospital, this city Mrs.
Clifford w. Hartridge, wife of the at
torney who defended Harry K. Thaw,
died Monday from cerebro-spinal men
igitis. That same evening the body
was shipped to Canton. n. Y. the
home Of her parents. The superin-
tendent of the institution says she
was brought there under another
name. Only after death was her
identity made known to the supeFin-
tendent. She was visited daily by
her mother and brother, who were
with her when she died.
DR.. y. T. Miller. who attended Mrs.
Hartridge, refuses to talk about the
case.
While much mystery surrounds the
illness of Mrs. HaTtridge. aer death
clears up the mystery of her disap-
pearance from New York during the.
latter part of the Thaw trial. Her
relatives refused to discuss her dis
appearance and friends said at the
time that her married life was happy.
The first publicity of her disappear
ance followed a report to the New
York police on October ). 1t was at
that time that Mrs. Hartridge had de-
veloped a nervous affection.

have their usual compliments of min

STATE FAIR PATH
BEING IMPROVED

The big force OF men which has
been employed ~Spfing the past two
weeks at the State fair grounds, al
tering the grades and resurfacing the
race track has made considerable
progress OF late and the curves have
both been cut TO the revised shape
and covered with clay. A consider
able amount OF dirt taken from the
turns has been placed on the straights
which will bring the entire track up
to an even grade for the resoiling.
The executive committee has just
let the contracts for the blacksmith
shop and additional speed barns, and
1t is confidently predicted that the
track will be in shape for jogging by
May i. and the other improvements
be completed shortly after.
Several local trainers are already
at the grounds with their strings and
the horses are being logged on the
many cinder paths in which the en-
closure abounds
