Stato In tho Union; that they havo taken
from $200,000 to $000,000 and given noth

protesting that tho National Capital
Savings Building and Loan Association
of North America was not what its pro

000 of stook tho compauy hid issued.
Tho Bchomo was advertised through
thoso agents, who were sant documents
and circulars showing tho association to
bo gilt edged.
At tho time Captain Stuart took oharge
of the caso, Louis F. Mortimer, tha gen
eral manager and secretary, was appar
ently tho responsible man, and handled
tho cash received in lurge amounts evory
day. Captain Stuart visited the com
pany's office frequontly, dlsgulsod ns a
letter carrier, in order to secure evldenoo.
Several ( n eoks ago Mortimer disap
peared, and yesterday, after watting In
vain for his return, Capt. Stuart docldod
to securo tho other vlslblo mombors ot
tho concern.
George O. Forguson, of Lincoln, Nob.,
representing about 00 vlotims In his
city, was summoned hero. With his as
sistance tho necessary evidence was com
pleted and tha arrests mado. Three
young womon clerks woro takon info
custody as witnesses.
Until within a fow months the concern,
it Is said, did n heavy business In Phila
delphia, but it nnneara that tho authori
ties thero mado inquiries which resulted
in tlio manager leaving.

Wo began to make inquiries, nud we
found the family to bo sijuatters on a
piece of laud four or live mites from
town. Moses was his own sou, and
for four or livo years the old man had
been almost helpless, aud consequently
n burden. To get rid of hlni they
were going to journey to a now loca
tion, leaviug him entirely alone on the
'squat" to live as beat hecoutd. They
had talked it ova- two or threo times
with him, but he was so old and chll'
leh that he had not fairly understood.
They had sei retly laid their plans and
had slipped quietly away lu thoearly
morning, leaving him fust asleep.
When he awoke and missed (hem ho
had set out for the depot, and here he
was to appeal to his own tlcsu aud
blood not to bo left behind.
The daughter-in-law seemed to bo
bitter ngnlust Uini and to exercise a
strong iull'ieneo over the son. While
he stood there begging for his life, as
itwcie, she rose up and gave him a
slap aud said:
"It'snouee, 0I0 daddy! We hain't
dun gwlno to take yo', an1 if you doan'
go back I'll hurt yo' powerful bad!"
Several of us interfered to prevent
further assault. The old man took it
meekly, and turned to tho sou with:
' Moses, yo' was de only chilo I uol!
Was yo' gwlne to leavo yo' ole datldy
to die In do bresh?"
" We dun can't takoyo', 'cause yo' Is
too old an' it costs too much."
" I'll work, Moses I'll work hard if
yo'lltakome!"
"I say we hain't gwlno to take yo'!"
bluntly exclaimed the woman.
" Qrau'childreti! " he pleaded, as ho
turned to the little onus, "is yo' all
gwine to leave yo1 ole gran'ftidder to
starve an die?"
They were silent.
"Yes, yo' clti'r right out, now, yo'
useless trash I" shouted the woman,
looking around In a deilant way; and
after lonkiug from one to another in
hones to arouse pity the old man half
fell, half rolled oil tho platform and
walked uowu tno truck, it was
straight away for two or threo miles
and ho had shambled oil to a distance
of about forty rods when we saw tho
express coming. Ho was facing it.
He hobbled on a few yards further,
and then halted, faced about ami
dropped on his knees right in the
center of tho track. It was half a min
ute before we understood. Then it
was too late. The engineer whistled
aud we saw the fire fly as tho air
