SHIPPING STOCKS
: SHOW STRENGTH
Trade Satisfied With Govern
ment Prices and Encour-
aged by War on U-Boats.
tsrRANpBERa. M,GRrEvY 4 60

In spite of Thursdays strong opening with
general recovery from Wednesdays close, the
market was slow with rails almost ignored
during the first hour being barely l25, 900
shares.
Outside OF shipping stocks which developed
considerable strength on inside satisfaction
with the governments freight rates and
diminishing damage by U-boat activity there
was no particular class trend In any OF the
lines The market was largely professional
and special stocks were singled out for at
tenton by both sides.
Pronounced inactivity, coupled with dis
position to postpone commitments until there
Is further light as TO the possibilities OF an
early peace, are alone sufficient causes to
account for the slackening off in prices.
We find nothing new In the general situa.
ton to warrant any change in sentiment and
expect the present recessions to be followed
by good rallies. The rails are on good
foundation and should prove profitable if
bought at these levels

For Sixteen Years Bank President
stole From Elderly Woman.

For sixteen years the late j. B. Mar
Itindale, honored president or the
Chemical National bank of New YORK.
manipulated the deposit account OF
an elderly woman and stole from her
100000. In those sixteen years he
had not failed 20 be on hand at the
bank at the close of each month, so,
that he might personally look after
the statements sent out to this par
ticular depositor. When informed that
Mr.. Martindale had stolen 100000
from her, the depositor at first would
not believe it. Bank officials with
difficulty finally persuaded the wom-
an that she had been made victim.
The former business associates OF
Mr. Martindale even yet seem unable
to realize that their friend could be
guilty of perpetrating such fraud.
Mr.. Martindale was quiet, highly re-
spected man, cultured and of excep-
tional manners. He was member OF
the most exclusive clubs and well
coined in the best homes. He was con-
sidered methodical, conservative and
an authority on matters of finance.
A director In several trust COM
panies, he frequently was appointed
receiver for big concerns, because of
his remarkable grasp OF things finan-
clal. A prominent churchman, he was
known as q stickler for honesty.
Among his employees in the bank he
was looked upon as the soul of per-
sonal honor and even a crank on the
question of honesty. In short, he was
considered gentleman by everybody's
standard

Illness His Undolng.


II was not until Mr. Martindale was
suddenly taken i'll and was unable TO
leave the hospital to be on hand at the
last of June that his book juggling
was discovered. The vice-president of
the institution, now president, could
not at first believe the story figures
told him. Mr.. Martindale died after a
weeks illness. The president
called in experts and with the latter
he went over again and again the ac-
count from which Mr.. Martindale had
made his peculations. He searched
every pigeon hole for papers which
would disproye the guilt which the
figures of sixteen years cast upon his
former chief. But not loophole could
be found, and finally John Shelton
Williams, comptroller of the cur
rency, was notified. Mr.. Williams
disclosure of the 100000 fraud was
published in the Kansas City Star the
other day.
The method by which Mr.. Martin
dale got most of the money was ex-
tremely simple. He would withdraw
from the depositor's account. either
thru q forged check or a debit slip
signed by himself as president. He
would present these checks for $4,000
or $4,000. or whatever the amount
might be, to the bank teller person.
ally. explaining that the depositor had
asked him to draw this money from
the account for a gift to some hos
pital, so that the name of the donor
might not be known, or that the de-
positor desired the matter handled in
this manner for some other plausible
reason. And he then would appropri-
ate the cash so drawn to his own uses.
In explaining to the depositor at
the end of each month these with
drawals, the former bank presidents
plan was to inform the unsuspecting
woman that he had placed the sums
so withdrawn from the Chemical bank
TO the depositor's credit in a certain
trust company In New York city. ono
OF whose deposit or passbooks he had
obtained.
In this book. In his own handwrit-
ing. Mr.. Martindale would enter the
amounts of money he had withdrawn
from the Chemical National bank
thru the forged checks or debit slips.
He had the trust companys false pass
book to show the depositor that her
money had been transferred. At the
end Of each month the Chemical
banks statement to her would be al
tered to record the alleged transfers.

I'll he has changed and is ready to go

In addition the tunnel serves "a a
place for the protection OF steam pipes

The miner arriving at the shaft
landing passes through this tunnel to
the dry distance OF about 200 feet
He goes up a flight OF steps to the dry
room where he takes off his working
clothes and places them over the pipes
to dry. He then passes into the show
er bath and next to the long wash
sinks where he finishes up his clens-
ing and then passes into the locker
room where his wearing clothes are
kept
This room forms an ell onto the
main dry and is equipped with steel
lockers. There are $50 OF them man
ufactured by the Durand Steel Lock-
er Co, of Chicago Heights, Ill They
are arranged in the center OF the
room In two rows. each row having a
double deck OF lockers. They are set
up from the floor so that the hose can
be played under them when the bal
ance of the floor OF the room is being
cleaned. This makes a very sanitary
arrangement and aids much in keep
ing fireplace clean.
The miners digging" clothes and
boots are left, as we stated, in the dry
room where they are hung on a chain
from the ceiling over the steam pipes.
Each chain Is fastened with a lock,
and has a number which corresponds
with that on the locker In the ada
cent room. The miner may lock his
locker II he chooses, place having
been provided for a paddock. Each
man Is furnished with an enameled
wash basin which is charged to him
and credited back when he quits, IL he

Some few days ago a story went

er M. Andrews, the gifted editor of

be a candidate for congress from the
Eleventh district The announcement
brought with II an opportunity for the

yet been named, and that these coun-
ties will reach out for typical Amer

himself or being groomed as a politi-
