SEARCH FOR A TRUNK

Had Nearly 92,000 in Property Ineide of It and Is on the Stolen List. MISTAKE AS TO THE DELIVERY Man Who Got It Has Disappeared——Sad Suicide of Lieut. Sarber. Indianapolis, Ayg. 26. —One of the most diligent searches ever made by the local police department is for a trunk belonging to a Boston (Mass.) woman which was lost in Indianapolis. The article is fast becoming the most extensively advertised trunk in the country. Circulars have been sent broadcast giving a description of the trunk and the contents, and pictures of the man in whose possession it is. The telegraph and long-distance telephones have been used in all directions, and no stone is left unturned to recover the property. The trunk contained diamonds, jewelry, fine dresses and garments, furs and other costly articles. The itemized list furnished the police shows an estimated value of nearly $2,000. Mystery as to the Owner. There is more or less mystery concerning the identity of the woman who owns the trunk. The police do not know the name and the Frank Bird Transfer company refuses information. The trunk was in Indianapolis about four weeks ago. At the time it was delivered by mistake to Abraham Braverman, of Norwood street. Braverman, who was expecting a trunk of his own. gave a receipt for it. When the mistake was discovered Braverman was missing. He left with the trunk, and was traced, after diligent inquiries, to Chicago. Since then the police of Chicago have been flying about in the wake of the trunk. Braverman was located twice, but before the police could reach him he moved away, taking the trunk with him. Description of the Hunted Man. With Braverman is a young woman who lived in this city. The local police has sent out circulars to the different polit e departments of the country offering a rewani of $l5O for the recovery of the property. Braverman is 24 years old. five feet seven inches tall, weighs 140 pounds and lias a dark complexion. In the neighborhood in which he lives he is known as a well-dressed young man. When last seen he was attired in a double-breast-ed blue serge suit. A warrant was sworn out against the young man alleging larceny. WAS HIS OWN SOLE ACCUSER United State* Army Officer Commit* Suicide After an Honorable Career in the Bpanisli War. Madison, Ind.. Aug. 26. —The funeral of the late First Lieutenant Guilford S. Garber, artillery corps, U. S. A., occurred here and was largely attended by the Grand Army post, Indiana National Guard, companions of the Loyal Legion, and friends. As a consequence of tropical service, overstudy, and perhaps homesickness, Lieutenant Garber suddenly became possessed with the hallucination that he could not stop drinking and ended his life. He, and he alone, was his accuser. He was not given to excess in drinking, as is well known at his home, and has been abundantly attested by unsolicited letters received since his death by offleers with whom he served in the Spanish war, the Philippines, at San Francisco and Honolulu, and by official reports to the war department. The war department received only favorable reports of his serviee at all times. Declined To B« Hold Up. Bedford, Ind., Aug. 26. While John Crutchfield, proprietor of a grocery store, was in the act of closing his place of business, a stranger stepped around the corner of the building and, leveling a revolver at Crutchfield, ordered him to hold up his hands.
