European Bankers Reject Validation

The decision was reached after a
The session of the bankers embody

Ex-Official Arrested for Alleged Rob
bing of Chicago Sub-Treasury.
George W. Fitzgerald, a former tell
er in the Chicago subtreasury, was ar
' rested in that city by Deputy United
States marshals charged with the
mysterious theft of $173,000 from the
subtreasury on February, 19, 1907.
Fitgerald was arrested on a bench
warrant based on an indictment re
tuined secretly by a federal grand
jury on February 17, 1910. Three
days after the indictment was secret
ly returned and suppressed, on Feo
-1 ruary 20, it was announced that the
1 statute of limitations had operated to

Coincident with the ruse by the au

tailed to watch Fitzgera'd constantly
and make a rigid investigation of the
former teller’s financial interests ana
affairs. Discoveries made by these
secret service operatives resulted hi

CAUGHT ON TRESTLE.
Two Children Run Down by a Fast i
Passenger Train.
Herbert, the 9-year-old son of Mr. !
and Mrs. L. Yarborough, was instant- !
ly killed, and Johnnie 8., the 11-year-1
old son, was seriously injured by be- ।
Ing struck by a southbound passenger I
train on the Georgia. Florida and AT I
abama railroad at Edison Ga.
The children were walking along
the main line of the road just north
of the depot when they were overtak- j
en on a trestle and run down by the
swiftly moving train.
Ihe body of the younger boy was
i frightfully mangled, death resulting
Instantly. The other child was hurl
ed 50 feet into a ravine. His escape I
from instant death is regarded little
short, of miraculous. He was very
bainfully injured, but will recover. |
