SCHEME FOR TAKING MONEY Comptroller of Gives Out Method Em by Hank Teller. Carrency oy ed WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.—Mr. T. P. Kane, the acting comptroller of the currency, to- day gave out the following statement re- garding the defalcation in the First Na- tional bank of New York: During_the progress of the examination by Bank®Examiner Hanna, October 15, of the First National bank, Assistant Cashier kus discovered that' the note and ex- change teller, Alvord, was short in his cash to an amount which has since been found to be $6%,00. His thefts have been going on for a long time. The plan of maklng the cash on hand agres with the amount for which he was accountable, as shown by the books, was to take out of the morning mail, of which he was in charge, a ‘wufficlent number of cash itema to cover the ageregate ‘wmount of htv detalcation and add them to the exchanges for the clearing house recelved during the preced- ing day. The exemination of the ex- changes at the time of examination showed the total amount correct, but $60,000 of it had been taken from the morning recei and listed with previons days’ exchan the amount of morning additions belng reduced that much #o that the sum of two aggregated the correct wmount. A change the sllp by Alvord later in the day aused Inquiry and comparison to be made at the clearing house, when It was dis- sovered that the two ftems of ‘previous days’ exchanges” and “morning additions’ aid not correspond with the list thecked fner, and a unt of the cur- h and checks In hands of revealed a shortage of $690, 04 ortage seems Lo have been About $100,000 two years ago and has been Increased gradually since that time, the teller concealing the same in the mornin additions, which always amount to much more than the amount of his shortage ana never enter into the count of the preceding dayv's cash There is no way to have a check on the morning additions to the cxchanges exc:nt Ly counting the note teller's cash and checks twice, or to begin an examinatl) of cash in the evening, which is otherwis objectionable The bank has charged out the amount of the shortage without impairing its surplus or_undivided profits acogunt. Further examination of Aivord's accounts with the bank shows that his dealings have been going on for several years. Fourtoen months ago he took a two weeks' vacation, and an examination of his tickets preceding his golng and after his return shows that he covered his shortage while absent i making a number of charges to out-o town accounts and credited back the amounts on his return befure the month'y statements were sent out. The amount of his shortage at various periods in the past scoms to"have gone up end down, and t 1s probable this is due to the tact that he had reason to gxrect any ash or a periodical he would doctor it charges agalust present \instance whenever, investigatlon of his ¢ visit from the examine by means of these fal: large accounts. In the ahead of the usual six months period, the last preceding cxamination uving ‘been made May 15, 1600, and this unexpected visit prevented a_mantpulation of figures by Al- vord and led to a discovery of the defaica- tion. This theft cculd probably have been vro- vyented by a rotation of the clerical force in the bank, thus placing each departmen: under the supervision of different persons successively. There I8 no WAy to accuragely check the accounts of an employe if fe has access (o the succeeding day's cash from which to make good his shortage of the carrent day fand this 1s what Alvord has alvays had) and has also the opportunity to hold back Credits for a longer time than the day on which the letters enclosing items cre recelved.

After the hymn, “Rock of Ages,” Mr. Mackay-Smith read the sim- ple but impressive funeral service of the Epliscopal church. When the reading of the service was finished the choir softly sang the hymn, “‘Peace, Perfect Peace.” In accordance with Episcopal usage, there was no funeral address and after a briet prayer the choir chanted the anthem “Lord, Let Me Know My End and the Number of My’ Days.” The casket was then lifted by the bearers, with the honorary pallbearers following, and carried from the house, where a detach- ment of the Fifth cavalry, under Colonel Rafferty, waited to escort it to the depot.

WASHINGTON, Oc{. 24.--An interest- ing report upon conditions in Dawson Cliy and the Yukon districts of Alaska has been furnished to the State department by United States Consul McCook. Dawson today, he says, presents a marked contrast to the Dawson of 1808, Then no one, except possibly the judges ‘on the bench, wore a white shirt The town was thronged with miners, pack on back, prospecting for gold. The streets wero veritable mudholes. Now poople dress much as they do in the cities of the United States, a man with a pack on his back is an unusual sight and one can walk the town over with polished shoes and not have them solled. Dawson City does not appear like a min- ing town,” states Consul McCook, “but rather a thriving commercial center. It 1s crowded just now, for more come in than go out. Efectric railroads are prom- ised by 1901 and publlc schools have been opened and are well attended. The gov- ernment at Ottawa, It 8 reported, wil offer for sale at public auction In Dawson every claim that has reverted ta it by lapse or otherwise and thirty days after the time of sale all claims not sold will be declared open for location. The output of gold has been increasing, says the copsul, 'In spite of the fact that \the average vrlues of the gravels worked have been steadily declining, the richest mines having been worked first But meantime the cost of working has decreased and enables clalms (o be profic: ably worked now which would not have ylelded gains two years ago. There should be a continued output from $15,000,000 to $20,000,000 worth of gold aunually for many years to come, according to Consul McCook, If the expenses of working are further reduced. Valuable placer gold claims are reported to bave been located in the Stewart river mining district, about 100 miles from Dawson, and a stampede has followed to the scene of the finds Vuille Returns from Manila.
