theory OF suicide as advanced at first
does not seem logical, as MIR. Sprague
had no reason to commit such an act.
and if he had would have undoubtedly
chosen a more secluded spot and a
time when no one was expecting him.

Williamstown, Mass, Aug. ID
Army and navy locked horns in infor-
NAL but strenuous debate on the
league of nations today at the lnSti-
tute of Politics. Admiral w. w.

opposition on the question of an en-
try of the United States into the
league. Major General Henry T.
Allen, who presided over the discus
sion. took the other side. several nom
military persons Joined in, and so
many questions were put forward
that it was decided to renew the bat
tie tomorrow. Sir Arthur Salter, who
supported General Allen in endors-
ing the league. has been discussing
the workings of the league before his
round table of limited membership
but this is the first time since the
institute opened that the league is

Attacking those who declare that
the British empire with it's colonies
would override us in such an or

General Allen declared that the
United States would have the same
vote power as other nations and that
in addition the British dominions are
quite as likely to oppose the mother
country as are other nations.

PUTNAM NATIONAL.
BANK WRECKED BY
ACTS OF GILPATRIC

Putnam. Conn, Aug. 13.-Deyelop-
ments were numerous today in .connec-
ton with the wrecking Of the First
National Bank Of Putnam by its CASH
Ter, State Treasurer G. Harold Gilpat-
rio. 1t is estimated that the banks
loss, placed at n minimum of $262 900
by. the directors. is so great that it
cannot again open its doors.
One of the outstanding develop
ments of the day was the issuance of
a warrant for the arrest of the state
treasurer by Assistant United States
District Attorney George NJ. Cohen of
Hartford. charging him with embez-
element of nominal 100000 of the
banks funds. The warrant was turned
over to L. S. Marshal Jacob Walter
with instructions to serve it at his dis
erection.
States Attorney Charles Z. Searles
of Windham county, in whose jurisdic-
ton any action on the part of the
state would lie, is on his way home
from Nantucket. He is also the attor-
ney for the bank.
George w. Coffin, national bank ex-
aminer, was today appointed assistant
of currency at Washington.
Walter II. Gilpatric, brother of the
man who is still fighting for his life
at the Day Kimball Hospital, where he
lies partly blinded as a result of his
attempt at suicide, announced that the
state treasurer has assigned all his
property to the bank to meet it's loss
es. Mr.. Gilpatric estimated that these
losses would not be as great as pre-
viously indicated and that the assets
available would closely match them.
After a conference with National
Bank Examiner Dean q meeting of
citizens headed by NJ. H. Geissler and
j. j. Whitehead voted to organize a
new national banking corporation that
would keep the commercial banking in
terests of the town in its own hands
and subscribed more than $4,000 to Il
prospective $250,O00 capital.
Outside interests had telegraphed
also to the comptroller of the currency
at Washington for authority to estab-
lish n new banking institution here.
In his bed at the Day Kimball Hos
pital the wounded treasurer and
cashier called for his brothers, Wal
ter II. Gilpatric. New York lawyer,
and Raymond Gilpatric OF New Britain.
