BOSTON, Aug 31.--Divers today
searched the bed of the Charles river for
bundle Of Liberty bonds, part of a lot
valuel at $129.000 stolen two years ago

the Boston & Albany railroad at the

tinued by divers.

pretended in Providence Friday while

Boston hotel, and denies knowledge of
the robbery.

lived in the vicinity of Boston most of
his life He gave his occupation as a
merchant, but the police have been un-
able TO find that he was engaged in bust
ness. Until June ! Harding lived in
Audubon road, Back Bay. Then, ac-
cording 60 the police, he bought a sum
mer home at ROckport, Me, and also a
house at 194 Somerset street, Winthrop.
which he gave as his address when
