Britain's Special to the TIMES. HOUSTON, Tex 29. an interview Congressman J. W. Bailty, leader of the House Democrats, today said I am fully persuaded that the National Administration has entered into a full and complete agreement for an alliance between Great Britain and the United States.

This alliance, in my opinion, is to be both offensive and defensive. I think the reason it has not been published to the world is that for political reasons the President is afraid to do so." Aaron's Head Special to the TIMES. HAZLETON, Pa July de Veroille, of Naples, Italy, who is in the coal region, making a study of the condition 01 his fellow-countrymen, was attacked and seriously injured by Joseph Kobale.

Local news on page seven William Darling, the murderer, will be lodged in the county jail this afternoon if ho does not make his escape while en route from MoConnellsberg, to this city. He left the Fulton county jai' in that town in charge of Chief Grant and Detective Ferguson at 5 o'clock this morning and should have reached Harrisburg at 11.25 o'clock this morning. Darling and the officers are exported to arrive in this city on the 5.22 o'clock train this afternoon.

Prosecutor Voorhees returned home last night and told a TIMES reporter of the experience be had in getting Sheriff Sheets to deliver up Darling to the officers. The TIMES has already told how the Sheriff refused to honor the requisition papers of Governor Stone and how he demanded $275 of whioh amount he claimed $238 was due him for risk money in making the capture. The Prosecutor on reaching Harrisburg Thursday morning met Detective Ferguson there by appointment. The detcc'ive succeeded in reaching the state capital safely although he encountered a big grizzly bear which came upon the stage coach in the mountain drive from MoConnelsburg to Merc rsburg. The animal came within a few el of the coach but made no attempt to attack the passengers.

After the consultation with the state authorities the prosecutor and officer started for and luund the sheriff, a typical backwoodsman, ia his overalls and without any collar, in full charge of the situati -n. He still refused to give up the man and would not let them see the prisoner. Darling with two gypsies were the only occupants of the jail, a small structure behind the house of the sheriff. They had a strong letter from Attornej General Elkin, urging Sheriff Sheets to surrender the prisoner, and warning him of the dangerous course he was pursuing in refusing to honor the Governor's requisition. Prosecutor Voorhees tendered Sheriff Sheets the amount of costs for making the arrest and for the prisoner's detention, the Sheriff refused to ao- oept, as his bill was 8275.

District Attorney Daniels informed the New Jersey officials that Darling cauld not be taken away, as he was being held to answer a charge of carrying concealed deadly weapons. After the officers had started home without their prisoner the citizens ot so loud in he expression of their indignation at the methods followed byj.be officers to thwart tba of that District Attorney Daniels intercepted the New Jersey officials by telephone, eight miles distant across the mountain, and begged them to return and get the culprit The bill was cut from 8275 to $40, which is about the actual expenses incurred in the arrest and detention. Detectives Ferguson and Grant then went back for Darling and the Prosecutor returned home.

Toe charge in made wi'h startling directness HhH the news of George M.

-leatine'b shortage did not come as an entire surprise to the officials of the Middlesex County Bank, at Pmh Atuboy. The Herald this morning declares that tvidenoe has been found that the cashier had been habitually Overdrawing his aooount for large same. The Herald aays In the George M. Valentine, the defaulting cashier of the Middlesex County Bank of Perth Amboy, N. there was found yesterday evidence that the man had been habitually overdrawing his aooount tor large Sams with the knowledge of the bank officials.

"Thomas Magu're, the receiver, after a busy day, found papers and documents in Valentine's desk which show a startling state of affairs. There was a note for $25,000 given by Valentine and un- indorsed, which charged to too young man's account, as an overdraft and duly such by the bank officials. This young man, now serving a six year sentence in the Trenton Penitentiary, having been convicted of rjbbing his employers of 8225,000, remained in the employ of the batik a year and a half after his overdraft was charged to his ao- oount. He was at the time receiving a year as a cashier. Uriah B.

Watson, the president of the bank, when I asked him last night, for an exp anauon of such a state of affairs, said that he did not remember that an overdraft for that amount had been made. He said that a year and a half ago young Valentine had considerably overdrawn his aooount, but Jihat he understood father would make the amounts good. BELIEVED IN VALENTINE. He represensed to me," said Mr. that he was making money in his dredging company and would agon be ablrtohtepiy 'Relieved him implicitly and he deceived In making an examination of the affairs of the bank the receiver fouud Valentine's private desk whioh until yesterday bad been overlooked.

It was just aa the young man had left it. It was not even locked. "The papers were in the greatest confusion. They looked as though the cashier had hastily- stirred them about and had destroyed such as he thought incriminating. In his haste he overlooked many drafts, notet and canceled checks, whioh throw muoh light upon bis transactions in Wall street and elsewhere.

"Thete documents will probably be the means ot causing for the bank officials a bad half hour, for on their face show a state of affairs whioh must carefully explained for the benefit of the depositors. STOLE WITH EASE Young Valentine seems to have had ittle difficulty in obtaining money. The data found yesterday are said to account for the greater part of his stealings and to furnish a clew to the tortuous course of his financial operations ''The papers have given to Siroog Cadwalader, of 40 Wall street, attorneys for the receivership. They will use them in making a thorough examination, which they will begin today. DIS WALL STREET OAME.
