Even when news of the shortage was known to many -^teposl tors last- -Fri day. only $ 1 6*,000 Vas withdrawn. It is said that mor^thah this sum was deposited from other sources. The* manner in which the bank was defrauded, it Is alleged, was by the substitution of notes In the -forged names ? of - well'-knuwu lui'tti business men for negotiable securi ties. The repeated Occurrence of J these notes and a .certain uniformity in their character^aroused the sus picions of the banc examiner, and a further probing into the books of the concern determined his sudden action in closing the bank.
