he was to receive in the afternoon.
1t is claimed that $1,000 had been
offered in settlement of the case, but
that the amount was not satisfactory
to the attorneys of the Breeze com
pany.
Manager Loughlin said: I'VE have
been done all right. We called in Jacob
Ccnstam, of the Constam Audit Com
pany, who went over our books, and.
much to our establishment, discovered
a $1,000 deficit in our accounts. We
were greatly surprised by the resig-
nation of one of our trusted employ
ees, but this later development has
fully accounted for his action. We
have no desire to prosecute the boy
If he will make fair settlement. We
hardly hope to recover the entire
amount. but we could not be salts

1t is said that the parents of the
young man are endeavoring to set
tie the matter with the Breeze com
pany and no warrants have been is
