LOOTED OF OVER A
MILLION DOLLARS
Money Restored, But Courts
viii Prosecute

Philadelphia, Oct. 25.-Reports that
had been current in Philadelphia for
more than a year that the Union Trust
Company had been robbed of $1,000,00O
in securities and $4,000 in cash by an
employee were confirmed today, Gov
John K. Tener, of Harrisburg, decided
that so far as the state is concerned,
Walter H. Shourds, who is accused OF
appropriating the money and secur-
tiles will be prosecuted if he is located,
Notwithstanding that restitution has
been made to the trust company The
company is now known as the Merch-
ants Union Trust Company.
The decision of the Governor was
made after he had conferred with
States Attorney Gen. John C. Bell, Dis
trict Attorney Samuel P. Rotan, of
Philadelphia; William H. Smith, state
DdUhlUS COMMISSIONER GldIGHCt Il.
Harper, of the Trust Company; George
Burnhan, Jr., and Edwin O. Lewis, an
attorney.
The securities, it is said, were taken
from a safe-deposit box rented by Mr..
Burnhan, who is connected with big
locomotive works in this city. Shourds
is fugitive from justice, but it is
said in view of restitution having been
made the trust company would not
press the prosecution. A state law,
however, demands that the common
wealth prosecute all such cases.
Shourds, who was superintendent of
the safe deposit vaults of the Trust
Company, fled the country shortly be-
fore his crime was discovered. 1t is
reported that he opened communica-
ton for the return of the securities
and the money through personals
inserted in New York and Paris news
papers

tracked the law. His message was re-
-fered to the council police commission
and on motion of Councilman Aldine
Chambers the commission was in
structed to consider new applications
from the four clubs, recently banned.

Atlanta, Oct. 25-Lead ng local at
torneys are open in the expression OF
their opinion that Judge Fite's efforts
to create sentiment for the abolish

of public welfare but by the judges
own personal desire to get even
with the court for finding him $500.
The question of whether or not the
Court of Appeals is useful institu-

sode In which Judge Fite was hailed
before the court and found guilty OF
