Gescriptions of him to different citles slong the line and requests for his arrest. | Mrs. Bentley, who is a widow, came | from Stockton about six months ago and | invested part of her savings in a lodging- | house at 108 Taylor street. Not long after- ‘l ward she became acquainted with Marsh, | who told her that he was connected with | George E. Olsen, real estate dealer, | Chronicle bullding. He induced her to| dispose of her property interests in Stock- ton for $2130 and as the money was paid | to her sfter bankipg hours she says | Marsh prevailed upon her to give him the | mobey to place in his safe deposit box at the Crocker-Woolworth Bank on June 30 | last. She cleims that Olsen & Co. assist- | ed Marsh in the sale of her property. CONFIDENCE IN MARSH. | That evening Marsh called upon her| and gave her an order on the bank per-| mitting her to have access to his safe de- | posit box and also handed her a key to! the box. She had implicit confidence in | Marsh and when he informed her the fol- | jowing day that he had withdrawn a por- tion of the money from the box and placed it on deposit in her name with the Western National Bank she was perfect- | ly satisfied. l Later she told Marsh that she was dis- | satisfied with the lodging-house at 108 | Taylor street and he promised to find a better location for her. He notified her that be had secured the lodging-house at 217 Eddy street, on which he had paid a deposit-and had also found a purchaser | tor the Taylor-street house for $580, the purchese price of the Eddy-street house being $625. Marsh, soon after she had taken posses- sion of the Eddy-street house, ceased his wisits to her, but her suspicions were al- layed when she received letters from him | that he bad gone “over the mountains” | to examine some mining claims and would | be gone for two or three weeks, as he in- tended before his return to visit the To- nopah mines in Nevada. In the letters be addressed her as “My dear,” and she explains the familiarity by the fact that he had asked her to marry him, but she had withheld her consent. MONEY IS MIL3ING. Nothing unusual happened till Friday, when a2 man called upen her to collect i terest on & mortgage on her furniture in the Eddy-street house. She hurried to the Crocker-Woolworth Bank, opened Marsh’s gafe deposit box and found it émpty. Then she went to the Western National Bank and found that no money | bad ever been placed there on deposit in Lier name and that Marsh had withdrawn | the money he had on deposit some days previous. Her cup of sorrow was filled when she learned that the lodging-house had been purchased in Marsh's name and that bhe had executed a mortgage on the furpiture for $400, which inciuded her piéno and other effects that she had brought from Stockton. Ehe hastened to police headquarters and 1214 the facts before Captain Martin, who cetailéd a detective on t. certained that Marsh had left the city last Tuesday, presumably for Butte, | Mont.

Colonel Harrington of Colusa still car-| ries a chip on his shoulder and a gun in his coat pocket, so far as affairs of the Glen Ellen Home for the Feeble-Minded are concerned. At a special meeting of the trustees yesterday morning at the Grand Hotel he came to the defense of several employes dismissed by Dr. Law- lor, and paid his respects to the ex-su- perintendent in true Kentucky style. #Harrington sought the reinstatement of Miss Hussy as housekeeper, but Rev. Father Lyons and the Rev. A. C. Bane gave him to understand that the troubles of the past were to be forgotten, and that they were not willing to shoulder thé burden of animosities of the past ad- ministration. After lopping off two farmhands from the salary roll, thereby effecting a sav- irg of $70 a month, it.was decided on mo- tion of Rev. Mr. Bane to reopen the school . on = November 1. The trustees agreed that the purpose of the home was largely subverted by keeping the school closed, and for that reason they deter- mined to open the school even at the risk of exceeding for a time the monthly sal- ary fund. Dr. W. J. G. Dawson, the .new super- intendent, submitted a statement of the contingent fund, showing a surplus on hand of but $727. The expenditures since January 1, from that fund, have been $22,975. Dr. Dawson said he regarded the permanent improvements made as neces- sary, and that he believed the money had been wisely spent. “Colonel Harrington criticized the man- agement of the farm. He said it cost from 150 to 200 per cent more than it should, and ought to be put on a practi- cal basis, so as to make both ends meet. It was decided to hold regular meet- ings in future on the first Tuesday after the first day of each month. B Soldier Has Narrow Escape.
