WONDERFUL MEMORY
OF FRANK BROWN.
How the Defaulting Bank
Clerk Made His Large
Haul.
Cincinnati, Nov 19 ?Tbe experts
who have been working today with
Receiver Tucker on tbe books of tbe
German National bank, at Newport,
Ky, piece tbe shortage of Frank M.
Brown, the missing assistant cashier
and individual bookkeeper, at $191,
500. According to reporte from
those who were with Brown when be
left last Tuesday night he had less
than $500 witb him Brown's aalary
wae only $1,500 per year. Cases
are uow cited where he spent more
tbao tbat amount in one day. His
bond was for $10,000, and it is good
as far as it goes.
United States District Attorney
Hill will arrive from Paducah tomor?
row, when, it is said, criminal pro?
ceedings will begin The federal
detectives have certain persons nnder
surveillsnce aod tbere are reports
tonight about arrests thst will follow
oo tbe arrival of District Attorney
Hill.
During tbe run oo the German Na?
tional bank, at Newport, last Satur?
day, $200,000 was secured in Cincin?
nati to bridge the trouble. Tbia was
returned today ood Reoeiver Tucker
bad other moneys and papeis also
transferred to Cincinnati.
Brown's system required a wonder
fol memory The experts say he
carried in bis bead the figures tbat
enabled him to call off correctly a
lot of false entries io a way to throw
tbe clerks who were doing tbe
checking with him off tbe track. A
depositor would put io $3,100
Brown would enter the proper
amount of tbe deposit iu ooe book
sod eater it as $100 in another
He would take tbe difference?$3,
000?himself. Then when tt came
to checking up he would handle one
of the books, another clerk would
check and Brown would call off
Instead of calling off $100, which
appeared as tbe amount of the de
posit on the book which he was hand
ling, he would call it as $3,100, thus
making it correspond with tbe book
in the hands of the other clerk
He also, it is alleged, worked in
mother way A depositor would
3raw out $IUD ?Browo would make
the proper entry in one book and
tnter $3,100 in another. When the
depositor had bis account checked
up the figures were takeo from the
book in which the correct entry had
been made When the bank officia
looked to see what amount was due
the depoeitor they were given their
information from the book which
showed that $3,100 had been with?
drawn. Brown had memorized all
the individual accounts and the
experts find no private marks of any
Sind on tbo book Tbe general
ledger was kept correct and balanced
with the cash, while the individual
ledger, it is alleged, was fixed to suit
Brown's purse, the former being the
one that the bank officials examined.
It is generally beiieved that Brown's
Sist shortage started accidentally
with ao error of $1,000 io tbe indi
vidoal accounts.
The Dry Dock Inquiry.
Washington, November 18 ?At
the navy department it is said that
the naval board, of which Rear
Admiral Rogers is president, detailed
to determine tbe advisability of trans
ferriog the naval station from Port
Royal to Charleston, has practically
completed its lsbors and will report
in favor of tbe change It is nnder
stood tbat the board has concluded
to recommend tbe transfer of tbe
naval station to Charleston on the
ground that the latter place offers
better facilities for the execution of
Government work.
After examining several desirabls
sites in tbe immediste vicinity of tbe
City of Charleston, the board, it is
understood, decided to recommend
the selection of the site on the Cooper
River, adjoining Chicora Park
Rear Admiral Rogers is now sup
posed to be in Charleston to make ao
examination of a few details bearing
upon the final report to tbe Secretary
of tbe Navy The additional surveys
ordered to be made at Port Royal
were to have been completed last

the results of tbe recent informal con?

"Tbe situation is apparently very
favorable to tbe early beginning of

of The foreigo envoys will virtually
settle all points of difference between
the representatives of tbe powers, who
will lose no time io presenting tbe de?

"What tbe result will be it is impos?
sible to foretell. Events bave placed
Chios to a very oritioal position
Whether she will be able to preserve
her iotrcgrity aod to save her trade
relations with tbe rest of tbe world will
depend upon what the powers demand
io tbe fiosl settlement and opoo ber
willingness to aooept promptly tbe
conditions proposed
"It is quite unlikely, if not impos?
sible, that tbe Chinese court will return
to Pekio before next spring, bot I do
oot aolisipats soy serious delay io the
progress of tbe negotiations with tbe
Chinese commissioners as they are in
