100000 SHORTAGE
Bank Officer Goes Away After
Giving Up $25, 900 in
Property.
Especial to the Newark star.l

Il
HIGH BRIDGE, N. j.. Jan. 23.-The
First National Bank of High Bridge
temporarily closed its doors today fol-
lowing the confession of it's cashier,
Abraham l.. Beavers, that he had
taken almost 100000 of the banks
funds. Immediately after the con-
fession, which he made late Yesterday
afternoon, Beavers left for New York,
where he is now at large. The di-
rectors met last night and decided to
close the doors of the institution un-
til an accounting can be made.
Beavers owned about $25, 900 in land
and personal property, which he
turned over to the directors. He is
bonded for $4,000. An examiner is
row on his way from the office of the
comptroller of currency at Washing
ton to make an accounting.
A statement was issued today by
Vice president ]. Henry Rose to the
effect that the depositors would lose
nothing. Their money is insured by
the double liability of stockholders
and the earned surplus.
The closed doors We're a surprise to
almost everyone here today. There
was no intimation that anyone had
defaulted, or that anything amiss had
been going on at the bank. Bank
Examiner A. l.. Fowler has looked
at the books twice within the last
two months. and it is believed that
fear of being discovered through this
course led Beavers to confess.

less to the Spirit World.
Mr.. Peters, who gives his address
as S2s Hudson boulevard. Bayonne,

worrying himself to death because
at least one uneasy spirit has told
him that murderers in Essex county
are getting away from the authors
ties.
This is what he wrote:
To the district-attorney of Essex
county.
Dear Sir-Herewith I beg to
mall you copy of spirit com
munication in the Ernst murder
case. and would state that the in
visible ones are able to find out
the name of any slayer if such
person is known to the victim.
'It takes only fe whours after
the third day the person has been
killed, as before the fourth day
the soul is seldom separated from
the corpse. Mary is my sister,
who died on September 1S, IN
1888. Meta is my wife. who died
September 10, 1911. Beside these
my father and Emanuel Sweden
borg write through my hand L
am respectfully yours.
"F. W. PETERS"
What "Mary, and Meta" said.
On a separate sheet OF paper Is
written the following questions and
answers that evidently passed be-
tween Mr.. Peters and MARY and
Meta"
Q.-"Who is there?

Q.-"Who murd er e d Catherine
Ernst?"
Awe don't know.
Q.-"will you ask"

his spirit relatives.
Q.-"who is there"
A.-"Mary and Meta

Ernst?"
A.-"Yes."
Q.-"Who murdered her.
A.-"The negro. Hamlin."
One More Question Ends IL.
The spirit communication ends.
according to Mr.. Peters's letter, with
one more question and answer that
is irrelevant.
If the spirits do not get facts
any straighter than stated in the
present communication Prosecutor
Mott says he does. not believe he
will call Mr. Peters and his ghostly
aids TO his rescue in seeking muir
derers.
Hamlin is held on charge Of
numbering Mrs. Katherine Dun
niger in Union avenue, Irvington, on
December 2S last.

offer of celestial aid in catching
murderers. Mr. Mott consigned the
letter to the waste basket.
Who Mrs. Ernst may be is a mys-
terry to Prosecutor Mott.

WOMEN DROWN IN RIVER.
Boat Springs Leak During a Thunder
storm.

Norristown, Pa.-Three young wom-
en- were drowned in the Schuv kill
River in sight of hundreds of people
when their boat sprung a leak during
a thunderstorm.
Four young women started out early
in the afternoon for few hours pleas
ure on the river. There was not
cloud IN the sky. When some distance
from here a thunder storm came up
and the wind dashed the placid Schuyl-
kill into a rough sea and tossed the
boat about until it sprung a leak The
girls became terrified as the water
rose in the boat and all stood up.
Other persons in boats on the river
saw the predicament of the girls and
went to their assistance, but before
they could reach them the leaking
craft turned over. Three of the girls
sank and did not come to the surface
Margaret Green was clinging to the
upturned boat when resCuers reached
the spot and was brought ashore In
an exhausted condition. A minute
after the accident occurred a score of
boats from shore and river were at
the scene, but too late to be of any
assistance to the other three girls.

TO BLOW UP
i. s. EMBASSY
Threat Sent to Ambassador
Henry L. Wilson.
ANTI-AMERICAN OUTBREAKS.
Ambassador Says Such Demonstra.
tons Must Not Be Permitted.
Sends $1,000 To Consular
Agent At Torreon.

Mexico City.-An anonymous letter
containing threats to blow up the
United States Embassy was received
by Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson
and Immediately referred to the Next
can Foreign Office for investigation.
The American Ambassador protested
theoretically to the Mexican govern
ment against permitting another anti
American demonstration.
In his note to the Mexican govern
ment the Ambassador deplored that
the youth Of the capital were to be
permitted to indulge in public nantes
tations which were calculated to re
suit in violence to Americans resident
in Mexico. He indicated the danger of
allowing persons to use as tools the
students and others who expected to
participate. He reminded the Next
can government that in case any
American was injured he would use all
the power at the command of the en-
bassy to secure reparation.
Alarmed at the development of hos
tile feeling as displayed by the news
papers, the number of Americans leay-
ing for Vera Cruz was greatly aug
mented. Ambassador Wilson is send
ing frequent reports to Washington re-
garding the situation.

TURKEY TURNS
UPON BULGARIA
Orders Out Troops to ReOCCupy
Territory.
IN ALLIANCE WITH SERvIA,
Tells Russia Peace Must Be Con-
cIuded Upon the Battle Field.
5uIgars In Danger OF
Losing ALL

ConstantinOple.-T Turkish troops
at Tchatalja and Bulair have received
orders to march for the reoccupation
of the Ottoman territory now held by
the Bulgarians, Preparations are be-
ing hastily made for an advance to-
ward the Ergeni line
The Government sent a note to the
commander of the Bulgarian troops
demanding that they evacuate forth
with all territory south of the line
running from Enos, on the Aegean
Sea, to Nlidia, on the Black Sea. Other
wise they would be driven out by the
Turkish troops. The terms of the note
permitted no temporizing.
Gen. Izzet Pasha, commander-in-
chief of the Turkish Army, has left for
the front.
The negotiations between Turkey
and Bulgaria, the latter represented by
NJ. Natchovitch, a former Foreign
Minister, regarding the future frontier
between the two nations have been a
complete failure
The mission of the Servian delegate,
NJ, Pavlovitch, has proved successful.
1t is said that an agreement between
Turkey and Servia has been signed.
According to Turkish accounts the
agreement ensures to Turkey the re-
covery of a large part of T!race.
Negotiations for an understanding be-
tween Turkey and Greece have been
proceeding at the same time, it is be-
lieved, with good prospects of a salts
factory conclusion.
The landing of Greek troops near
the port of Dedeaghatch, on the
Aegean Sea, is causing the Turkish
Government some concern. 1t fears
the Greek pretensions are incompatible
with Ottoman interests, as they may
take the place Of Bulgaria's claims,
which are now strongly contested by
Turkey.

ACCUSE AMERICANS.
Mexican Papers Say They Are Aiding
the Rebel Forces.

Mexico City.-Much space is devot-
ID by the newspapers here to articles
in support of charges that American
citizens are aiding the rebels. Alleged
specific instances are given, the ma
terial for which, in part, at least, has
been supplied from official sources.
The Official correspondence is given
in the case of Jesse H. Johnson, United
States Consul at Matamoras, whom
Elias, the Mexican inspector of con-
suls, charges with attempting to in
duce federal troops to join the rebels
who had captured that town. Elias
also accuses Frank Rabb, whose prob
able appointment as port collector at
DaTedo, Texas, was recently under dis
cussion.
The charge is brought that an Ameri-
can warship at Guaymas threw the
rays of its searchlights on the city
during the recent fight, thus enabling
the rebels to take better aim.

BULGARIA NOW
ASKS FOR PEACE
Appeals 10 Powers to End the
Conflict.
DEFEATED AT EVERY POINT.
Bulgars' Plan To Drive a Wedge
Between the Greek and
SerVian Armies Has
Failed.

London-The end of a weeks des-
perate fighting in the Balkans finds
Bulgaria forced to appeal to the pow
ers to arrange peace. The Bulgarian
plan TO drive a wedge between the
Greek and Servian armies in the neigh
borhood of Guevgheli has completely
failed. The latest reports of the fight
ing received from Athens show that
the Servians and Greeks at this point
are combining their forces, while the
Rumanian army is beginning an in
vasion of Bulgaria.
The latter fact doubtless was the
deciding factor in the Bulgarian APP
peal to the powers. How far Bull
garia's defeat is due to dissessiOns in
high military quarters, which resulted
in the resignation of General Sayoff,
and how far to the fact that the Bull
garian troops, which bore the brunt of
the hard fighting in the last campaign
were more exhausted than the Greek
and Servian forces, will probably never
be known.
Nothing can be predicted at the
moment as to how events will shape
themselves, the Rumanian invasion Of
Bulgaria having brought an entirely
new factor into the problem.
Russia and France are deyoting
their efforts to persuading the allies
to adopt a moderate attitude in order
to facilitate peaceful settlement. The
Servian Premier is quoted in the
Vienna Neue Erie Presse as declaring
that the new war has completely set
aside all treaties of alliance and that
peace must now be negotiated on an
entirely new basis.
Dispatches from the European capt.
tails published in London severely
criticize Premier Danef's overbearing
policy as being the cause of the Bull
garians defeat, and his speedy down
fall is predicted.
According to the Constantinople cor
respondent of the Telegraph Dr.
Daneff adopted the same policy with
Turkey The correspondent adds that
unless NJ Natchevitch consents imme-
diately to evacuation the Porte will
after "a hours notice, order the Otto
man troops to drive out the Bulgarians.
