CREEK 'VICTIM' CLEW CHECKED Coat Left at Bridge Said to Belong to Missing Bank Secretary. Private detectives today are investigating clews indicating that a coat left by an unidentified man who was believed to have leaped into Fall creek Wednesday from the Meridian street bridge is that of Robert Newkirk, 29, Rushville bank secretary, who has been missing since Monday night. Although description of the man seen standing on the rail of the bridge does not tally with that of the missing banker, the coat in hands of police is identical with one being worn by Newkirk at time of hts disappearance it was learned. The operatives said they had not yet determined whether the supposed suicide attempt is a ruse to cover escape or whether the man actually leaped into the creek. Rushville authorities have issued warrants charging Newkirk with embezzlement. Check of the records of the Farmers Trust Company, Rushville, showed $7,599 had been removed from the vault several hours before Newkirk disappeared.
