■ CARNEGIE TRUST GO.
DIRECTOR INDICTED
.. Charged With Larceny ot o»ei
$200,000.
)
Three indictments against William
j J. Cuntmins, oue of the directors of
the Carnegie Trust company in New
, York, were handed down, charging,
among other things, grand larceny in
( the first degree.
It is understood that the three in
( dictnicnts relate to the alleged lar
ceny of a sum of money said to he
between $200,000 and $300,000 from
the Carnegie Trust company in April,
1910.
It is said that the transaction in
point relates to the of $300,000,
! which was made to the '.tmegie Trust
company by the Nineteenth Ward
' hank and the Van Norden Trust com
pany. This loan was made in the form
> of a sight draft, for which the lenders
were responsible.
'■ It is charged that when the sight
drafts came into the Carnegie Trust
! company they were indorsed in proper
; form by Robert L. Smith, vice presi
dent of the bank, and turned over by
( him to be placed to the account of the
trust company. Instead of which, it is
> said that another officer of the b'ink
; used some hocus-pocus and directed a
clerk to credit the $300,000 to his per
sonal account.

i Catholic College Burned.
, Fire completely destroyed St.
• Charles college, a preparatory Instl
[ tutlon for the Catholic priesthood,
i The flames spread so rapidly that
J within an hour after the Are started
i nothing was left but the four walls.
The contents of the building were
lost. These included most of the
1 effects of the students, numbering
; more than 200, and of the professors,
1 of whom there were twenty or thirty
| St. Charles college was one of the
' oldest institutions of its kind in the
| country. The building was of stone
i standing on a high hill, about five
| miles west of Ellicott City.
Driven by a brisk wind, the fire
rapidly ate its way into the main
building The fire apparatus at Kill*
1 cott City responded to a teleplio? i •
, call for assistance, and many farmers
and others who were attracted by the
blaze hurried to the aid of the lire
men.
