Preae dis patches -from Seattle tell of the arrest tn that, city of Elijah flralth and describe him as sn absconding caahler of ' the Malta bank of Helena. This erroneous statement la probably due to the faot that Smith waa formerly In tha em ploy of the Helena bank, having gone from this city several yeara ago to ac cept a position with the Malta bank. Laat May Smith diaappeared and an examination of bis books showed a shortage of 14.000. Ha waa cashier of an Institution at Malta and had been treated implloitly by his employers. His faithful performance of duty wss Insured by a security eorapany, and this concern footed the shortage. The guaranty company's detectives located Smith In Alaska. Because of the dif ficulty of winter passage It waa de termined to wait until aprlng or until Smith ahould return to the states.
