H., Jan. -John R. Goggin, treasurer of the Nashua Trust Company, was arrested to-day charged with embe-zling from the bank be- tween $80,000 and $100,000. The Nashua Trust Company did not open its doors to-day and tlLe institu- tion is in charge of the State Bank Commissioners pending a further ex- jon. zgin was held in $10,000 bonds for He made no state- ment, but it was said that his down- I was not due to speculation, but to s having given assistance from time ne to a friend. Goggin is one of )st prominent bank officials in New Hampshire. He came here from the West about ten years ago and in a short time he was made treasurer of the trust company. He is about 40 years of age and has a family. An attachment of $50,000 was placed on the property held by Goggin in this city by the banks to-day. Real estate of George E. Gage of Manchester was levied on t6 recover a promissory note for $20,000. Another attachment for $12,000 has been filed against real es- tate owners in this city by Gage. Gage was formerly a bank official here. The directors of the Nashua Trust Company have issued a statement a suring depositors that they will lose nothing. Goggin has been removed from the office of treasurer and Joseph L. Clough has been appointed to fill the vacancy temporarily. Since 1890 four local banks have closed their doors and banks in neigh- boring towns have been forced to sus- pend chiefly through losses sustained in inestments in the Western States. It is estimated that within ten ypars citi- zens of Nashua have lost fully $2,000,000 through the embarrassment cf banking institution —_—— Warrant Issued for Sproat.

The Frank entry went to the post a 4 to 5 favorite for the final seven furlong purse event, and after looking all over a winner was i beaten out by the Eastern mare Fu- turita, the second choice. The victory was a justly deserved one, for Futurita looked dead beaten on the stretch turn. Hildebrand, who had the mount, did not give up though, and catching the faint-hearted favor: near the pad- dock, earned the verdict by nearly a length. Soothsaver was a good third. The fields in the different races were not above mediocrity, although fur- nishing some very good sport. Business in the ring was lively and the usual large Monday crowd was present. { With Dell Fountain’s Targette a favorite in the betting, Flo Manola, a | the opening sprint. and was almost forgotten. She trailed Targette into the stretch, and then in a drive beat the Fountain | entry out half a length.

He was finished third. Bill Short, a 10 to 1 shot, led to the bend for home and would have won had he not run out. Speaker Fontana also “took to the brush,” carrying Sea Air out with him. Jack Martin then skinned the ith Mogregor, getting a head decis- ion at the wire from Sea Air. Some day when Mike Daly gets tired of putting up Willie Daly on Lapidus the little gelding will win a race. ‘Willie had previously tossed off two and in the mile and seventy rd selling fixture yesterday made it three straight. Getting almost left at the post, Willie then took the gelding the overland route, and, on pounds the best horse, finished sixth. Oliphant, stride Lady Kent, the 13 to § favorite, rode a well judged race, scoring cleverly at the finish from Searcher, a 12 to 1 shot. Norford was a well backed horse, but Bell could accom- plish nothing with him. Some day he may do better. Frank Reagan’'s luck appears to a change for the better. horse, Namtor, closed { and, enjoying a fresh breeze and clear ling from the time of weighing anchor, was returned on easy first, with Wonderly in the saddle. Sammy Greenfield, on Telephone, was badly interfered with on the first turn, but managed to finish second, less than a length before His Eminence., In the mile and seventy vard run Frank Woods was back with all his speed, defeating Optimo and Bill Mas- sie quite handily. The odds against | Woods reached 21 to 5 and were then played down to 18 to 5. Larsen again had the mount, and, never being far out of it at any stage of the running, | the old gelding finished with his usual | supply of speed, disposing of the pace- malk Optimo, by nearly a length. Gawaine, the favorite, was fourth. Chickadee ran a very poor race. NOTES OF THE TRACK. | John Condon, owner of Harlem track, Chicago, accompanied by Martin Na- thanson, will pay California a visit next month. Hildebrand was fined $50 by Starter Dwyer for breaking through the bar- rier with His Eminence. It has been discovered that Kentish Shrew, raced here by Lamasney Bros. 1as a two and three year old, is really a four-year-old. The stewards have ex- onerated the firm owning the mare from any intent of wrongdoing in the matter, as they purchased her last June in the East from John Madden as a two-year-old and supposed her to be such. Mike Sweeney, official caller at the Chicago tracks, was an onlooker at Oakland yegterday. Mike just crossed the hills to see his friends and pick a few winners, The well-known jockey Johnny Woods died at Beaumont, Cal., Sunday even- ing, where he had gone in quest of health, a sufferer from dread tubercu- losis. The deceased rider was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, twenty-one years ago, and at different stages of his turf career, which began in 1895, had piloted horses from the stables of Mat Storn, Barney Schreiber, Burns & Water- house, John W. Schorr and Durnell & Herz. Johnny was a determined fin- | isher and when in form could hold his own with the best riders on the West- ern tracks. Just before leaving for Beaumont, some days ago, he told a friend he was possessed of $15,000, but that he would rather have $1 and his health. The body will be brought to Oakland for interment.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 25.—Cattle are dying by the thousands in Antelope Valley, in the northern part of Los An- geles County, and unless copious rains fall soon the loss to stock owners in this and other counties in Southern California will be enormous. Conditions in that section are more serious than they have been at any other time dur- ing the past sixteen years. Between 5000 and 6000 head of cattle in the northern part of Los Angeles County are slowly dying of hunger and thirst. Their condition is pitiable in the ex- treme. Not only are the cattle suffering torture, but the financial loss to cattle- men will be enormous unless the drought is soon broken by ¢opious rains. This is the story of distress brought by L. C. Stuckey of Lancaster, one of the largest stockraisers of the valley. “I have lived in the Anfelope Valley for sixtéen years,” said Mr. Stuckey, “butX have never seen such lamentable conditions as the present ones. My own herd has dwindled to about 500 head, and some of them are so weak they can scarcely walk. Other raisers are faring no better, and unless we have good rains in a very short time or devise some way to get the cattle out our herds will be practically annihilated. “‘Antelope Valley under the most fa- vorable conditions is none too good as far as water is concerned, but this year is the worst in its history. The sage- brush and salt grass is completely dried up, leaving practically no nour- ishment for the animals. ~The country is overstocked to begin with, but conditions in any other event would be nearly as bad. The valley appears as if it had been swept by pes- tilence. It also looks as if all ranchers would be ruined.” Similar reports come from other coun- ties in this section of the State.

Portener, a Daughter of the Attormey i > TSN There was chaos in the residence of Augustus D. Splivalo, a well-known at- torney, at 1120 Washington street last evening. A squad of deputy sheriffs descended upon the place soon after 5 o'clock and in a short time all the furniture and equipments of the base- ment and first floor were piled upon the sidewalk. It was due to the charity of the deputy in charge of the case tha: the entire family was not driven out of doors and forced to seek shelter else- where. They were permitted to remain in their quarters on the second story for the night under condition that they should not attempt to cart any of the property that had been taken out back into the premises. The trouble is one of long standing. It appears that Mrs. Florencia Por- tener. a daughter of the attorney, bor- rowed $10,000 from the Hibernia Sav- ings and Loan Society in 18! At that time it was supposed that Mrs. Por- tener was the sole owner of the prem- ises and the banking company consid- ered the property as security. Litiga- tion followed and a portion of the money was paid, but a balance still remained. Then it was discovered that Mrs. Splivalo. wife of the attorney, claimed title to the security and ig- nored the debt of her daughter. Judge Hebbard issued a writ of as- sistance after 4 o'clock yesterday af- 5 ternoon.

Au- gustus D. Splivalo and his wife, Cata- lina Splivalo, were particularly named as occupants and their removal was expected as well as that of the daugh- | ter, Florencia Portener. The work of demolition was com- menced at once. Furniture was carted out and placed upon the sidewalk and carpets were torn from the floors Even the property contained in the yard was removed. Deputy Sheriff Jesse Galland, who has charge of such matters, then arrived on the scene and directed the work. Splivalo watched as operations continued. He threatened the Sheriff with an action for damages and told those that were engaged in dismantling the rooms that they Second race, Slauson course, selling—Ocy- rohe. 103 (Buxton), 15 to 1, won; Huapala, 107 J.

RHEUMATISM JOINTS AND MUSCLES SWOLLEN AND STIFF A disease \so painful and far-reaching in its effects 1pont the human system as Rheumatism, must have a deep and well-latd foundation. It originates and develops in the blood, and, like other diseases of the blood, is fre- quently inherited. The poisonous acids with which the blood is charged girculate through the system, breaking down the health, irritating the nerves, settling in joints and muscles, and causing the sharp, cutting pains peculiar to Rheumatism.
