Here to Stand Trial.
Escaped with Partner After Being
Indicted for Using Mails for
Fraud Purposes.

After GLIDING the police OF many cities
for more than six months. Harry I.
waring, who was indicted for using the
name of President Taft in connection
with the Bank Depositors' Insurance
Company transactions last July. has been
arrested at Rochester. y. Y. He viii be
brought 10 Washington TO stand trial late
this week
Waring and his partner, Edward II.
Carroll. were indicted July 80 1899.
charged with using the United States
mails with intent to defraud. He evaded
arrest and finally escaped.
The discovery that the name Of the
President had been used in some of the
alleged deals spurred the authorities to
new efforts. and last Friday a report
stated he was on his way to Rochester.
Post-office Inspector Carter B. Keene
found Waring registered under the name
OF Harry Walton at the Powers Hotel and
took him into custody.
He has consented to come back TO
Washington without extradition papers.
He admitted his identity when he was
placed under arrest and declared he
could prove his innocence before an i'm
partial jury.
WaFing and Carroll fell into the clutches
OF the law through their scheme 10 In
sure banks and trust companies against
loss to their depositors in the event of
failure. CLAIMING the company was in
eorporated by Congress and approved By
President Taft, the pair gathered many
banking institutions on their books. and
it was not until a small bank in Phila-
delphia went to the wall that it was
charged the concern had no intention of
keeping its agreements.

Prosperous Niobe.

Our friend H. F.. Keller, of the
Keller Mercantile | Co. at Niobe,
writes The Tribune that business
is very good at that place, and
says 1hat his firm has found it
necessary to add another clerk to
their irWorking force in the store.
I'VE have had several flattering
chances to dispose of our business
within the last few days." writes
Mr.$K., "but this is good enough
for me and l am going to stick to
it. Our bank, which started to
do business as late as Sept. 9,
1909, is making good, and the
fact that it was recently made a
state depository speaks we'll for
the institution, as we'll as for Mr..
Sorenson, the cashier. All we
need now is a live newspaper and
