CASHIER KILLED

MYSTERY CROWS
Oklahoma Bank Officers Say
SIS, 900 Was in Safe Before
Official Disappeared.

PLAINFIELD, June 6.--The mystery
of the big iron safe is deeper than
ever today among employees Of the
Manganese Company. The two-ton
box, which had defied all efforts to
open it for a month, yawns peacefully
in the c%onlpany's shops. but the for
tune of $25.000' 1t was supposed to con-
tain has dwindled to one dime. The
safe is the property of the Farmers
State Bank Of Tushka, Okla
According to dispatches from Okla
horha, the cashier of the Tushka bank,
L. r. Tubner, committed suiced a few
weeks ago in Florida. His disappear
ance from Tushka and his death caused
a sensation.
The morning he failed to appear for
duty the bank officials could not open
the safe. They were sure at least
SEE. 900 had peer locked up in the steel
receptacle the night before.
Bank offcers ON Hand.
An official of the Plainield National
Bank was notified to be on hand and
get the S25,0 900 in the safe and deposit
it at once to the credit of the Western
institution.
Yesterday the work was complete and
everything was ready to remove the
door. The Plainfield bank official was
notified and appeared with sacks in
which to carry away the currency and
coin.
The ceremony of opening h safe
was quite a solemn affair. Half a dozen
or more prominent citizens were on
hand as witnesses In addition to the
workmen. The signal was given and
the big door fell out with a jar, ex-
posing the interior of the box. The
small steel and wooden compartments
were easily opened as the gaping crowd
looked on.
All were empty. On the carpet which
covered the floor Of the safe were four
canvas money bags, all empty. Under
the carpet, however, was one lone
dime that evidently had escaped no
tice.
The Tushka bank officials were noti-
fled of the result and have ordered the
safe put in shape again. What be-
came of the $25. 900 is the mystery that
apparently no n a solve.

Time is getting very short for the

All the visiting cavalry officers are
under orders to report in London on

What is more important to the English
poloists is the matter of duties on their
string of ponies. The bond of $4,000
given for their stay in this country
expires on Saturday. The customs Of
fieials said today that only orders from
Washington would extend the limit of
the bond, and Collector Loeb will step

Saturday unless he receives such or
ders.
1t was generally admitted today that
the match could nave been played yes
terday, for the heaviest part of the
rain ceased a couple of hours before
the time set for the game. 1t was for
this reason the polo officials hesitated
today for a considerable time before an
nouncing their decision on the contest
