McCormick, who resides at 4419 Twen- ty-fourth street, is a candidate for the Assembly. He is 32 years of age and has lived in the district thirty-one years.

Mr. McCormick was nominated by the Democratic convention, which assembled at Odd Fellows’ Hall. He also secured the nomination of the Citizens' Republi- can party.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.—The whereabouts of Cornellus Lansing Alvord Jr. (not Charies), who, it has been discovered, looted the First National Bank to the ex- tent of $700,000, is unknown, and his hand- some home at Mount Vernon is being clgsely watched by the detectives. In spite of many rumors, some of them very circumstantial, it may be positively stated that the officlals of the bank have no definite idea just what Alvord did with the large sum of money that he stole. That much of it went in high living and luxuries for his family is clear, but the bank officials belleve that less than one- fourth of his pilferings went in that way. Wall street is full of stories telling how the defaulter was & heavy loser in the stock market, and although the brokers refuse to discuss this phase of the matter there is no doubt that their detectives are looking into it, and if Alvord’s broker or brokers can be found they will be made to disgorge, if that should be possible. g st Licensed to Inrry. 24.—Mar) wgr. 1ssued to Vincent Goo 2 ora Harrys, 32, bot w‘ of and mn.gl.n'oo.
