It Is Believed He Intends Boarding a Steamer for South America. | Bank Attaches Property of Fugitive Greater in Value Than the Amount of Eis Defal- cation. Special Dispatch to The Call. LOS ANGELES, Dec. 10.—The search | for Henry J. Fleishman, the absconding | cashter of the Farmers' and Merchants’ | Bapk, has thus rar been unsuccessful The only clew discovered by the police officlals, after running down every rumor | that came to their ears, is the fact that | Fleishman departed from the Arcade depot |of the Soutnern Pacific Company be- |tween 8 and 9 o'clock last Saturday | morning. Some time between these hours Fleishman appeared at the station, wea ing an overcoat and carrying a light-col- ored hand satchel about fifteen inches in- | knows Fleishman spoke to him_and & The The depot employe he did not see Fleishman paid no fur- ther attention to him—and does not know s again—in fact, whether or not he purchased a ticket or A policeman at the Southern Pacific de- pot, however, supplies the information that the railroad employe could not giye. He knows Fleishman well and could fpt be mistaken in the man, and he deciares positively that he saw the fugitive at the depot between 8 and 9 o'clock on Satur- day, and that Fleishman boarded the Fleishman entered one of the coaches and had not emerged when the train pulled out. Buys Ticket in Pasadena. The ticket to Boston which the cashler urchased was bought in Pasadena on gawrda)\ and not in this city. He board- ed a Southern Pacific overland train in that city and started for the East. How far he traveled on the Boston ticket is not yet known, but the authorities will soon be able to land this information by trac- ing the ticket through coupons in the hands of conductors along the line. It is certain that the Boston ticket was bought es a ruse and that the cashier did not travel far on it. It is believed that he left the train somewhere in Arizona, New Mexico or Texas, to connect with some branch road that would carry him across the border of Mexico. The theory is that he is now speeding toward Vera Cruz, with the in- tention of boarding a steamer in that port for some point in South America. The authorities are working on that supposi- tion. Fleishman, had he remained on the over- land, would have reached El Paso Sunday morning at 7:05 o’clockand a Mexican Cen- tral train departs three hours later. Had the absconder planned otherwise, by using the Sunset limited, he might have left the train at Benson, A. T., stopping there until Sunday night, when he could have taken a train for Guaymas. That port 1s crowded with tramp steamers plying be- tween the ports of Central and South America. If_the fugitive continued his journey to El Paso he is presumed to_have halt- ed before reaching Mexico City, where he is known. There is an extradition treaty with the southern republic, a fact of which he doubtless was aware. At Vera Cruz he could board a steamer for Central American _and South American ports, whose aufhorities do not sur- i render fugitives. 1t is accepted as a fact that Fleishman did not fiee to Lower California, where his ample funds would prove an’ attrac- tion to freebooters, who would not scru- ple to relieve him of his money. How the Money Was Stolen. Some interesting details in connection with the fiight of Fleishman came to light during the investigations conducted to-day.

How he obtained these funds is described by the assistant cashier. ‘When the money was being stored in the vault_after the closing hour, Fleishman and the assistant cashier deposited $80,000 in currency in a small box which was its customary over night receptacle. While the assistant turned around to get more money to place in the vault, Fleishman must have slipped the big bundle of bills out of the box and secreted them in his | clothing. The assistant cashier was ab- sent but a moment, and Fleishman had no time to lose. When the cash was counted after the cashier's disappearance the box that usually held the currency was empty. This $60,000 was all the cash that Fleish- man took with him in his fiight. The bal- ance of his shortage represents money that he had taken from time to time previous to his departure. After he had obtained the bundle of pa- per money by stealth, there was still one chance open to the cashier to avoid-ex- posure, and he waited for this before starting on his journey that may termi- nats in_the penitentiary. It was that some change in Wall street conditions might come to his rescue and enable him to make good the money he had previ- ously stolen from the bank. With this faint hope he delayed his departure until the following day. Eariy in the morning, long before the first stock quotations were ticked over the wires from New York, he was in Creary’s bucket-shop to learn the opening quotation on Amal- gamated Copper. He couid not conceal his nervousness or the feverish anxiety with which he scanned the figures when they were posted. He had lost. Amalgamated Copper had touched $61 50, its low water mark. Fleishman went straight from the bucket shop to the Arcade depot and his flight had begun. There is no longer any doubt that it was his losses in this copper stock that led to the cashier’s downfall. He invested heav- ily in the stock when it was seling at $20 above par, and when the bottom fell out of Amalgamated and he had used up his ready cash to “‘cover’” he drew upon the funds of his employers, believing that there must come a turn in the downward tide that would enable him to repay the money without detection and save that of his own_that had disappeared in the slump. His last hope went when the re- turns of Saturday morning showed that Parlor Desk. You may hear that or Flemish oak.

Bank Is More Than Secured. Fleishman has left behind a fortune greater in value than that of which he robbed the Farmers’ and Merchants’ Bank. In addition to the $30,000 bond sup- plied by a surety company and his real estate, valued at $50,000, he held convert- ible stocks in_different corporations, to the value of $75,000. These, together with the real estate, have been attached by the bank. The institution has $155,000 with which to offset its loss, the highest esti- gmte of which places it much below this re. 'hese stocks were left by Fleishman in the hands of a friend 1 this city, whose name the bank officials refuse to reveal. When this friend learned of Fleishman's heavy defalcation he went to the bank and informed it that he was the custodian of the stocks. They were at once at- tached and will go far toward ‘“squaring” the fugitive's account with his employers. The directors of the bank met to-day and set an expert at overhauling all of Flelshman’s accounts. Nothing ~ further thar the statement given out yesterday as to the amount missing, it was said at the bank, had developed. State Bank Commissioner Barrett made an examina- tion of the books to-day and found the institution in a splendid condition. The directors have authorized an offer of $2500 reward for the apprehension of Fleishman and an-additional §2500 for the return of the missing money. Judge Shaw granted the writ of attach- ment on the property of Fleishman, upon the request of Graves, O'Melveny & Co., attorneys for the Farmers’ and Mer- chants’ Bank. i e WOMAN WITH FLEISHMAN. Constant Companion of Cashier Whils He Was in Bakersfield. BAKERSFIELD, Dec. 10.—Henry J. Fleishman, the absconding cashier of the Farmers' and Merchants’ Bank of Los Angeles, was in this city on November 8 last, having been brought here as a wit- ness in the A. L. Forsythe forgery case on a bench warrant issued from the Su- perior Court. At that time he testified that Forsythe had no account with the bank of which he was cashier and on which the arrested man had forged checks and cashed them. Fleishman was in this city but one day and evening. While here he was in com- pany with a woman. Fleishman was reg- istered at the Southern Hotel, but there is no record of the woman on the hotel register. Whether she came with Fleish- man or met him after his arrival is not known. Flelshman has many friends in this city, and, while he was seen by some of them in company with the woman, they profess ignorance as to her identity or the city of her Tesidence. She was a decided brunette of striking appearance and was attired in a dress of rich, dark material. It is known, however, that the unknown woman_ was not a resident of Los Angeles or Bakersfield. This much is_vouched for by Fleishman’s friends, who refuse to talk much concerning ths case, as (he{l do not wish to gain pub- licity. thmg the predicament in which Fleishman finds himself. The cashier while in Bakersfleld lived quietly. He kept constant company with his_female companion, but evidently he and she were careful to avold attracting undue attention. On the evening of the day on which Flelshman arrived in this city he and some of his friends attended the floral fair which was given at that time by the Woman’'s Club. The friends who saw Fleishman with his companion and who profess ignorance as to her identity give as an excuse for their lack of attention to detail so far as the woman was concerned that they paid no particu- lar attention to her or her dress, as it was not dreamed that Fleishman would ever be In trouble. There was no reason why they should observe her closely. Those who know Fleishman best in this city ar€ evidently aware of the name and place of abode of the woman; but they refuse absolutely to say anything con- cerning her further than to deny that she is a resident of this city or Los Angeles.

Senta Clara Constable Arrests an Intoxicated Ironmolder: SANTA CLARA, Dec. 10.—Local peace officers were thrown into a furor of ex- citement this evening over the prospect of catching Fleishman, the absconding bank cashier of Los Angeles. Well dressed and drunk, with a few dollars which he spent lavishly, B. F. Dudley, an iron-molder, who came from Boston to work in the Risdon Iron Works in San Francisco a short time an s taken for the default- er. Constable Lovell made the arrest early in the evening and notified Sheriff Langford. Dudley was too intoxicated to glve an account of himself, but after a couple of hours’ quizzing he regained his senses enough to prove who he was. Dudley was well dressed and about the height and build of Fleishman, but his hands showed he had been used,to hard labor. In his pockets was $27. After be- ing satisfied that the man was not Fleish- him to San man, Sherift Langford took Jose’and put him to bed. —_— BANK IS NOT AFFECTED, State Commissioners Receive Report From A. W. Barrett. The following telegram was received by ASSASSIN TRIES T0 END HER LIFE Woman Found Badly ‘Woundedin a Wash- ington House. Case Like That of Young Ayers Puzzles the De- tectives. ‘WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.—Mrs. Ida Gil- bert Dennis, a dressmaker, was found in an almost dying condition in her room at 5 o'clock this morning under ecircum- stances that promise to rival the Bonine murder case. Her skull was fractured, her jawbone was broken and her left ear was almost severed from the head. Her left arm bore bruises indicative of a struggle, and her c|othlni and the bed- ding were saturated with blood. She was removed to the Garfleld Hospital. The name of her assailant is unknown. The general belief is that Mrs. Dennis | was attacked while aslees in her back | room on the first floor, and that the first | blow, in all probability administered with the plano stool, which was smeared with | blodd, rendered her unconscious. The pre- | liminary investigation by the police failed | to indicate that there was any struggle. ! Mrs. Dennis, in a conscious moment whils | being carried to the hospital, said that some one had “hurt” her, but when pressed for details merely responded. | “Never mind.” Robbery was apparently not the motive for the crime, for on the table at the foot of the bed was a small box containing a pocketbook well filled with greenbacks | and coin. There was a bloody imprint of { a hand on the piano lid in the parlor, and a window in that room was open. It is supposed the assailant escaped through this window. When found Mrs. Dennis was clad In her night garments and was in bed under the cover. She was partly conscious, aithough she has been uncon- scious most of the time since. The detectives are satisfied that the sev- eral blows of the piano stool must have been wielded with considerable force, and that there was no outcry. Mrs. Dennis’ groans, however, were heard by a woman on the third floor and in the adjoining house. About the same time Policeman Livingston and a watchman, who were two blocks away, heard what they_ be- lieved to be a woman's scream. Mrs. Dennis is about 47 years of age and is one of the best known women in business heré. She is the widow of Walter Den- s, an actor. An operation was per- formed on Mrs. Dennis at the hospital this afternoon. Very little hope is held out for her recovery. Complete mystery as to the motive for or the perpetrator of the assault on Mrs. Dennis _continues to surround the case. The police have been baffled in their ef- forts to obtaln any clew upon which to prosecute their work. Many theories as to the motive for the crime are being con- sidered by them, but absolutely no facts | have developed upon which to base a clew to the person or persons implicated. The victim of the assault remains in a precarious condition at the hospital. The physicians say she may regain conscious- ness, in which event it is expected she will say something that will give the po- lice something to work upon. To-day in brief periods of lucidity she mentioned the name of a man whom she knew and the police are seking to ascertain if he ossibly could be connected with the case n any way. No arrests have yet been made. The physicians hold out only a slight hope of the woman’s recovery. @ il @ BARK 13 L0ST SEAMEN PERISH Seven of the Pinmore's Crew Meet Death in Disaster. ————— ABERDEEN, Wash.,, Dec. 10.—The Scotch bark Pinmore, Master Jamieson, owned by Clink Bros., of Greenock, Scot- land, and bound from Santa Rosalia, Mexico, to Portland, in ballast, went into the surf at the mouth of Raft River, north of Grays Harbor, last Wednesday night. The crew abandoned the vessel and took to the boats. One of the boats Pinmore and six men were drowned. The other boat reached shore safely, af- ter having been out for thirty-six hours. One man died from exposure. Following are the dead: JOSEPH WHITE. . WHITE. DRAAK. PRIOR. H. DEVEEN. STANLEY SHERRAN. CARL NELSON. The crew made their way by land to Oyehut, where the tug Ranger brought them to Hoquiam. One of the seamen, P. Pearson, is nearly dead from exposure end is in the hospital in Hoquiam. The crew report that the vessel disappeared, but it is belleved she has been towed off by a tug from Astoria. Captain Jamieson says he was off the Columbia River on November 22, but the gale blew him northward. He worked back to the Columbia on December 2, and was close enough to receive a tug or pilot boat, but another gale blew him north- ward and he was powerless. The Ernest Reyer, ashore north of Grays Harbor, is broken in two and is a wreck. SEARCHING FOR HIDDEN WEALTH OF A RECLUSE Fortune Believed to Be Buried on the Premises of the Late Eliza Clark.
