Paris, III., dispatch County National bank building and vault in this city was almost com­ pletely wrecked by dynamite Thurs­ day morning and fihe police declare the affair is shrouded in deep mys­ tery. No motive for the deed has been discovered and as no money was taken the authorities doubt that the vault was blown for the purpose of robbery. Whoever did the Job did not know how to measure the power of the ex­ plosive or intended to make a com­ plete wreck of the place. The bank­ ing business, while the building was being remodeled, has been conducted in another place, but the old vault and safes were were still used. The vault seemed to have been blown from inside, as its walls were thrown out­ ward and the structure obliterated. The partition walls of ajoining build­ ings went down and window panes for blocks were broken. The stocks of the Bradshaw Jew: elry store and Wetzel's shoe store were damaged several thousand dol­ lars by the falling partition walls. The contents of the bank vault were strewn about the street and burled in the debris of the building. Money Intact In Safee. The bank funds are- said to have been in two safes standing near the vault, and these, while overturned, held the contents securely. The offi­ cers of the bank said no money was missing and that there was about $50,• 000 in the safes. The bank books and about 200 safety deposit boxes were buried in the wreckage. So far only one man has been found who was in sight when the ex­ plosion occurred. He is Daniel Win- gart and he says that he was on the northeast corner of the public square. The bank is on that side of the square. He says that immediately following the explosion he saw a man run across the square. Walter Juntgen, the bank's book­ keeper, in telling of his peculiar con­ nection with the explosion, says he was sitting up with a sick child in his apartments on the opposite side of the square, and when he heard the explosion he rushed to the window. Just then he was struck by a brick, which broke his arm below the elbow. The distance the brick would have traveled by being blown from the bank building would be 300 feet. The court house intervenes partly. Police Claim to Have Clew. The police and the sheriff's force began work at once, and it is said a private detective also is working on the case. The police say they have a clew. Vice President Torrance Clark, who la in charge of the investigation, re­ calls that a few months ago a stick of dynamite was found under his porch, the source of which was never discovered, and there are some fea­ tures of the bank explosion which in­ dicate that it was done through mal- SHERMAN SCORNS WASHINGTON ice and sot with the motive of rob* bery. The police were notified that a man had been seen going in the direction cf the gravel bank south of the city and the patrol wagon and several offi­ cers were sent in pursuit of the stranger, who was said to be armed with a Winchester. He was not •found. The police, however, are not inclined to connect him with the ex* plosion. Later in the day it was reported that the discovery was made that a quantity of dynamite was missing from the Gormley hardware store. At the store the statement w?s denied.

Bigelow, self-confessed defaulter of the funds of the First National bank to the amount of $1,500,000, who plead­ ed guilty Saturday on an indictment of the federal grand Jury containing ten counts, each a violation of the nation­ al banking laws. Mr. Bigelow was ar­ raigned before Judge \ Joseph V. Quaries of the United States district court. Taken to Leavenworth. Leavenworth, Kan., June 12.--Frank: 0. Bigelow is now convict No. 4717 in> the Fort Leavenworth penitentiary. The former Milwaukee banker reached here at 7:40 o'clock Saturday night in charge of Andrew Johnson and Charles Kelly, deputy marshals, and was ac­ companied by Gordon Bigelow, his SOB, and Dr. Bigelow of Chicago ,a bro­ ther. .Bigelow bore up fairly well during the trip, except at Moline, 111., where the deputy marshals say he broke down and wept. At another point Gor­ don broke down, and the marshal in­ formed him he was having a bad ef~ feet on his father. Cheers Counterfeiter. Bigelow seemed anxious to avoid th» gaze of church people and reporters. He wore an old slouch hat, and was not nearly as neatly dressed as the- counterfeiter who was brought witty, him. In making railroad connections' union depots were avoided. On making the turn in the walk on the Riverside drive at Fort Leavenr worth, when the penitentiary loomed up in front of the party, the counter* feiter showed a disposition to weak­ en. When he trembled Bigelow spoke words of encouragement to him. Bige­ low, it seemB was not in jail at any time since his defalcation was dis­ covered, and when the keys were turned on him after passing into the penitentiary he remarked' it was the first time he had ever been in prison. Begins Term as Convict. Warden McClaughry remained up stairs in his office. Deputy Lemon was at the second or inner gate an4 the prisoner was told to step into the deputy's office. Bigelow gave hia name as Frank G. Bigelow and age 58. He was searched and some plain jewelry and a small sum of money were takeq away from him. He asked no questions, and was assigned to a regular cell to spend the night. Mon­ day morning Bigelow was given a. middle grade prison suit, when Berv tillon measurements and front and side view pictures were taken. With no allowances for good time,, he will be released in six years and four months. It is said his wife will visit him soon. The son seemed an­ noyed and expressed his disgust when some army officers came to the sally port to get a view of his father. The brother and son of Bigelow re­ mained down stairs and watched through the grating until they saw him escorted Into a cell-house. They then sought an Interview with Warden McClaughry and conversed with him privately. May Be Prison Clerk. It 1$ said that they requested that Bigelow be assigned to light work. This will not be determined until aft­ er the prison physician examines Bigelow and reports on his condition and Warden McClaughry has a talk with him. There Is a demand for prison clerks, and Bigelow may have a position of this kind. There are five national bank prison­ ers in the penitentiary, and four ot these are clerks, and one answers the ^ ;%lephone in the chief clerk's offlc. These bankers manifested consider­ able interest in Bigelow. One of them Broderick, from Elkhart, Ind., was a member of the National Bankers' as­ sociation while Bigelow was president.
