March beautiful spring-like day brought out offlee- seekers In force. The advance guard was at the White House before 10 o'clock a. and waited patiently for word to enter the room where the President was stationed. Senators Lasdge of Massachusetts and Nelson of Minnesota were the first of the senatorial contingent. With Senator Nelson was ex-Congressman Bunnell of Minnesota, who wants to be one Of the Treasury auditors.

By 16:90 things were getting congested around the door leading to Secretary room. Thka was relieved only by throwing open the door and letting the more distinguished of the crowd enter. The second stage in the sifting process was the admission of favored ones into the office. As a rule, however, Major McKinley saw everybody It was possible to see. Senators Foraker of Ohio, Spooner of Wisconsin, Hoar of Massachusetts and Thureton of Nebraska had conversations with the President.

His Pecalations Wers Small and Ezttnded Over a Long Period of of His Have Paitl to the Bank the Amount of His Shortage.

NKWBURYPORT, chief subject of conversation in business and social circles in Newburyport is the unexpected discovery that Bookkeeper Percy L. Dame of the National Bank had been found short in his accounts. According to the story told to a Post reporter today by Mr. A. W.

Greenleaf, the cashier of the bank, Mr. Dame was absent from his duties for a day or two because of Illness about two weeks ago. In his absence it was found that there waj? a shortage of some few hundred dollars in the passbook of one of the bank's customers. On his return to business the bookkeeper was asked to explain, and he then made a full confession of his delinquencies to the bank officials. He stated that a number of other passbooks would bo found to be short, and that his defalcations had extended over a number of few hundred dollars each amounting In all to 97400.

Ho had taken small amounts from the deposits from time to time, being able by his position as bookkeeper to cover up the frauds, and he had kept an exact account of all the moneys he had taken. Mr. Dame asked to be allowed a little time to obtain the assistance of his friends In making good the deficit, and the bank officers, in consideration of the very high estimation in which ha waa held, and of his long period of good service to the bank, consented to this. Within forty-eight hours friends, many of them among the best customers of the bank, had made up the necessary amount, and the enRre had been paid into the bank, thus indemnifying it against any loss. Mr.

Greenleaf's version of the affair was corroborated by the president of the bank, Mr. P. H. piumpey, and two of Hs prominent directors, John Cushing, brother of the noted Caleb Cushing, and his son, Lawrence Cushing. These gentlemen all testified to the high character borne by Mr.

Dame during the twenty-three years of his connection with the bank. He had always been, they said, affable, efficient end ipost popular W'lth the customers, afid was regarded as one of its most valuable employees. No suspicion regarding his honesty had ever crossed their minds, end the blow of the discovery of the defalcations most unexpected one. Mr. Informed the reporter, and In this he waa borne out by the directors, that no complaint of moral character or mode of living eould be made, and that he was at all times diligent and regular at his duties, and no vicfis could be laid to his charge.

He did not drink or gamble, and had never been knpwri to speculate. The bank officials were completely at a loss to for the motive of the embezzlement. In such high estimation is Dame still held by pome of the most prominent customers of the bank, many of whom were among those who lent him financial aid when his shortage was first discovered, that several of them, Mr. Greenleaf told the reporter, have used the strongest influence with the bank olficlals to have him retained In the service of the bank, offering to become his bondsmen for any amount that might be considered necessary. People find it difficult to account for the systematic though comparatively omall peculations of the bookkeeper.

Inquiries among the business men of the city seemed to bear out the absolute truth of the made by the bank officials as to his good moral character, and insufficiency of salary seemed to be the only assignable cause for his lapse from She path of Although his salary was raised at the January meeting of the directors to 91300 per year, the reporter learned from the directors that his average salary for the previous ten a period which covers the whole time during which the peculations are alleged to have been carried on, waa only from 9900 to a year. Mr. Dame, who Is 37 years of age. waa about twenty-two years in the service of the bank, was a married man with two children, and his position was one of great responsibility, the daily average balance of the bank's account being between 9200.000 and 9250,000. Mr.

Cushing, was asked by the reporter If he considered that $900 a yeaf W'as an adequate remuneration during the last ten years for a man doing the work and holding the responsibilities Which Air. poaltion demanded. He said he thought it was, and whether it was or not, it was no excuse, to his mind, for the man's dishonesty. The reporter found that the general opinion among the citizens was that Dame's remuneration had been inadequate to the services he had rendered to the bank and to the reaponslbillties attaching to his position.

Nervous dyspepsia shows itself not in the stomach so much as in nearly every other organ; in some oases the heart palpitates and is irregular; in others the kidneys are affected; in others the bowels are constipated, with hottdacbrs; still others are troubled with loss of flesh and appetite, with accumulation of gas, sour risings and heartburn- Mr.

An engine, to which was attached only a sleeping car, entered the Park square station yesterday morning just after 8 bearing a solitary passenger, Robert Treat Paine, who, or this spec'ally chartered train, had made a de.sperate attempt to reach his before she died. But the attempt was In vain. Mr. Paine was in Washington when the reached him that his wife was dying in Boston.

He Immediately gmve orders to have a train on the Philadelphia, Wilmington Baltimore railroad meet him at Alanassas, that would cover the distance between Washington and Boston at a pace as has never before been attempted. The terms of the agreement were a minute and a big bonus was to be given for every minute chopped off the record time, Mr. Paine arrived In Jersey City at 1:05 a. m. ye.sterday.

A delay of ten minutes was occasioned by the absence from the slip at that tttne of any ferryboats. It took fifteen minutes to make Uie run from the slip in Jersey City to the Desbrosses street ferry In New York city. A carriage was In waiting and was driven to the Grand Central station at top speed. The station was reached at 2:26 The special train which had been arranged for left two minutes later, the word being given the engineer to try to I beat the record for a run to Boston, which point waa reached at 8:02 the run having been made five minutes faster than the time of the limited express.

Mr, Paine could say nothing last evening of the funeral arrangements. He was so tired from his journey that nothing definite had been planned. At a special meeting of the managing committee of the Wells Memorial Institute last evening it was resolved that the managing committee, representing and speaking for 2000 of the w'orklng people of Boston, desire to express to their president, Robert Treat Paine, and his family their sympathy in the loss they have sustained in the death of Mrs. Paine.

But now, It is said, Mr. Whipple has another plan. It was rumored that he would purchase the Warrenton street chapel and tender It to the city along with a sum of money representing the difference in value between that property and the Winthrop School property, in exchange for the latter. Then if his plans went through, Mr. Whipple would have extended Dix place through to Tremont street.

This is a plan that has been on file in the office for perhaps eighteen months. A Post reporter saw General Alartin of Police Board yesterday afternoon, as was he whom it was said suggested the extension of Dix place. said the general, have talked of the advisability of such an extension, but my suggestion made long before there was any talk of the Touralne and its lack of one. The school is an old one and is ir, a most undesirable place. Tremont screet at that point is parrow and dirty and noisy.

Bui some people will contest any bill that is brought to extend Dix place now; they will say It savors of to accommodate a in the case of this hotel, this law should hardly apply. The children who come to Winthrop School come the other direction and do not pass where the hotel is to be.
