ARTHUR To the Amount of $2,000--He Had Evidently Been Speculating-- Feared Arrival of Inspectors and Fled, The mystery concerning the disap pearance of Harold G. Arthur, teller of the local branch of the Merchants' bank, is gradually being cleared up. It is known that the young man bought a ticket at the G.T.R. office late on Thursday night, for Windsor, and that he went out on the west bound express. Whether he went on to Windsor is not known. On Saturday, Manager George E. Hague reported that the cash of the teller was all right, and again on Tuesday he reported the same thing Though the cash shows no shortage Manager Hague says that he has gis covered discrepancies of about $2,000 in the accounts of the missing teller. An audit has so far failed to explain the discrepancies. roby 4 Mr. Hague saye that it may Ix some time before it will be fully un- derstood what the teller really did. There have been all kinds of rumors afloat with regard to the amount of the discrepancy, but Mr. Hague in forms the Whig that $2,000 is all that has been found. How long the mis-entries have oc curred is not known, It may have been for some months. The impression is that Arthur was doing a little spec ulating, and probably intended mak- ing things all - right, but found that he could not do so in time, possibly on account of losses. No Gne ever suspected the young man of being capable of doing anything wrong, but he evidently was like many another young bankman, in using the bank': funds with every intention of returning them. But the unexpected generally happens in cases of this, and when speculations go wrong, the foolish bank clerk is face to face with dis grace and prison. Arthur evidently feared the arrival of the inspectors on their periodical visits. The inspectors were to arrive] at any time, and the vouthful teller prepared for flight, rather than face what was before him. It is not known what the head office of the bank will do about the matter At the present time there is mot en- ough evidence to issue a warrant for the young man's arrest on a charge of defalcation. There was a rumor that the missing teller had shot himself in. Toronto, but there is no report in the day's news despatches concerping a suicide.
