THE U. 8, EXAMINER TAKES CHARGE—NOTHING HEARD OF THE MISSING PRESIDENT. . §, Bank Examiner Williams arrived in Albion, N. ¥., yesterday, and took charge of the First N tional bank, which closed its doors on account of the disappearance of the president, A. 8. Warner. Two experts have been at work trying to open the vault. Mrs. RS. Burrows, with her son, W. R. Burrows, returned to Albion from Boston last Friday. Mrs. Burrows said the statements that the Albion peo- ple had perfect confidence in A. 8. Warner were in- correct. She sald she had been trying for years past to get him to account, but without avail, though he had often promised to do so. She had suspected all was not right, and believes that War- ner commenced his irregularities even before her husband's death, he being laid up for sone time be- fore thatevent with a broken hip, W. KR. Burrows, who is very ill, sold that having decided that War. ner could ‘hot be induced to account williugly, he took steps last spring to force lim to do +0. He gave W. R. Caulking, in whom at the tue he had finplicit confidence, ‘power of attorney W. get cer- tain bonds and mottgages deposited in the bank vault at Albion, which he did. “These bonds and morigages were deposited in Boston, but atter- wards Mr. Burrows sala he was convinced that Caulkins was not his friend, and so gave A. S. War- ner another power of attorney. He says Warner got a large portion of the securities in Boston, and Supposes he has made away with them, He'says he never has ha‘l confidence in Warner. Messrs. Bullard and Sawyer, attorndys for W. A. Parmaly, have had an attachinent tssued against A.S. Warner. Mr. Parmaiy’s claim against War- ner Is over $10,000 for mouey loaned. Later.—The outer doors of the safe have been forced open. No cash or securities nor anything throwing lght on Warner's transactions were dis- covered. ——_——— A SMOKE STACK Biowy Dow: Pennsylvania, a stack eighty fect high, at Kaufman's furnace, Sheridan, fell _ yesterday, crashing through’ and wrecking the — cas ing house. ‘Twenty men made a narrow escape from instant death. ‘The furnace has been blown out t Reading, Adsoturezy P URE 00 ~ Bre 9 oF ue BX E'no,o Yo sae & R OO a4 Ci 3BB A NNN nao pep a RR RYN &G BBR AA KK II NNN G DOB AAA KK IONNN Ga BBBOA A K KOM ON NN GGG PPP. 00 Ww iW wi ippr FIR RRR - PoP.OO WWWWD DE.

I couid not sleep, suffered con- Stantly with Intense patns, and life seemed unbear- able. “I was finally induced by the advice of friends to try your Malt Whiskey. I having, however, se- rious objections to whiskey, being a strict temper- ance man, hesitated, but, from long suffering, de- clded to take that which was best for my case, regardless of the effects 1t might have on my tel perance ideas Since commencing its use I have gained in health and strength trom the start. 1 Dow rest_and eat well, and feel entirely cured.
