P. Withers. who was until December

flank. of this city. was yesterday ar-
rested by a deputy United States mar-
shal at Kansas City. on the charge of
foigery. Withers came here during
the boom that followed in the deacon
cry of oil. associated several local
capitalists with him and organised the
American National Bank, being made
its president. He served in this ca-
pacity until the date mentioned. when
he was succeeded by B. R. Norvell. of
this. city. Mr. Withers left the city
immediately after his successor was
elected and was heard from no more.
until the news came that he had been
arrested at Kansas City. I). H. Hardy.
attorney for the bank said: “Withers
is charged with forgery of paper in
sums varying from $10 to “.500.
“Withers was short to the bank ill
all about $65,000., but he made this
good in a way satisfactory to the bank
which is in a stronger condition than
before.“
B. R. Norvell. who succeeded Witn~
era as president of the bank, said
Withers' alleged shortage to the bank
had been made good and that the di-
rectors of the bank concluded to drop
the matter. but the bank examiner has
taken it up. Not much of Withers
history is known here. He organise'd
a bank at Sherman, Tex. about two
years ago and was made president.
r‘rlction arose between him and the
directors and a new president was ci-
ected. He is said to have married
the daughter of a wealthy Chicano
'zcntlcman. who is interested with the
Harbor Asphalt Company.

The Yacht Will Be Ballad
Shamrock ill.
LONDON. January li—Wiillam Fife,
of Fairlie. on the Clyde. is to build Sir
Thomas Lipton‘s next challenger for
the America's cup. At a conference
just held between Sir Thomas and his
advisers. definite arrangements were
made for the construction of Shamrock
ill. and an order for the new yacht was
given to and accepted by Mr. Fife. in
view of the probability of a big revival
of British yachting and the fact that
designing and superintending a. cup
challenger necessitates constant work
for at least. a year. Mr. Fife was some-
what disinclined to accept the big job.
Sir Thomas. however. found means of
overcoming his objections. George L.
Watson has promised to assist Mr.
F‘ifc in every way. by handing over to
him the details of the construction of
the Shamrock H. and all the calcula-
tions and details of the tank experi-
ments made at the Dennys yard. With
these and the experience gained with
the Shamrock I. Mr. Fifc‘ starts with a
distinct advantage over his first efforts.
In a recent conversation with a
still believed the Columbia’s victory ov-
er the Shamrock II. was lhrgely due to
luck. and that he believed the Sham-
rock ll was quite Columbia's equal.
Mr. Fife is already collecting mater-
ial and will commence designing the
Shamrock ill so soon as the boats now
on hand for the next British yachting
season are fairly started. which. prob-
ably. will be at the end of fills month.
The Shamrock Ill is to be ready early
in the spring of 1908.

“Let's take him to the police station."
This he thought nlennt that may were
