UNEARTH BIG GRAIN SWINDLE
Chicago Firm Loses 100000 by Manip.

gled Bills of Lading.

Chicago.-Juggling of warehouse re-
ceipts and railroad bills of lading,
used in connection with the business
Of Durant G Elmore, grain operators.
with Offices in Chicago and Albany.
N. Y, have caused the loss Of 100000,
according to reports from the eastern
city Monday. Conspirators within the
firm and outside accomplices are
blamed for the alleged misappropria-
tion, which involves, it is said, only
the officials of the eastern branch. Ed
win w. Elmore, vice-p-esident of the
firm and head of the Chicago office de-
parted for Albany last Friday in re-
sponse to a telegram and still is
there.
Money was obtained from banks in
Albany and New York, it is said, on
juggled receipts and bills, and the in
stitutions reported as swindled are de-
clared to be conducting an investiga-
tion seeking to place responsibility
and to discover the exact amount Of
the discrepancy. Gibson oliver, treas
urer of the grain concern and man
ager of its Albany office, IS reported to
have made a statement of responsible
ity in connection with the alleged mis-
appropriation and to have named

FRENCH SUBMARINE IS SUNK
Every Member of Vessels Crew, Num-
berlng 27, Drowned-Rammed
by Ferryboat.

Calais, France.-While trying to
dive under ferry boat in the English
channel Thursday, the French sub
marine Pluviose was rammed and
sunk with all on board.
The Pluviose carried a crew of
twenty-three men and four officers,
and all went down when the vessel
sank. The disaster was witnessed by
the passengers on the ferryboat.
The ferryboat Pas de Calais, crowd
ed with passengers bound for Dover,
had just left Calais when one of her
side wheels experienced a violent
shock. The captain, believing that
his boat had struck buoy. stopped
his vessel and a moment later the hull
Of the Pluviose came to the surface
a short distance astern.
A boat was hurriedly launched from
the ferryboat and went alongside of
the stricken craft, but the sailors
raped in vain against her metal sides
and in a few minutes after the sub
marine arose to the surface she sank
again beneath the waters.
