CHICAGO, Aug. 7—-With a deficit In
its accounts of close to $1000.00 and
chief officers unkuown to the authori-
ties, the Milwaukee Avenue State
bank, one of the larger outlying banks
ia Chicago, was closed by State Bank
Examiger C. C. Jones. The bank had
deposits amounting to about $4.000.000 K
and joans and credits to about the
Shine sum.
The failure was responsible for the
tleath of nue of the depositors and led
to the suicide of another man who a
month ago bad placed the earnings of
a lifetime Iu the ioxtitution. Iu the
excitement following the announce
ment of the failure J. GQ. Visser, an of-
ficet of the Royal league, who Lad on
deposit In the bank fuuds of that or
ganization, fell dead. Henry Koepke
8 grocer, ou hearing that the bank had
suspended payment, went to the rear
of his store and shot himself. Ie died
8 few nilnutes later.
Riotous scenes attended the an-
nouncement of the fallure; and a large
force of policemen struggled all day to
keep am excited crowd of depositors,
nearly all of whom were foreigners
and many of whom were women, from
rushing the doors of the lustitution.
The fact that the bank was on the
verxe of fallure was first revealwl by
the president of the yistitution, Paul
0. Stensland, In a letter written from
Bt. Paul to bis son®heodore, who is
vice president of the bank. The letter
was received last Batunlay, and It
started the investigation which brought
about the suspension.
Cashier Henry W. Herring has dis
appeared, and a warrant has been is
sued for his arrest on a clsrge of em:
bezzlement.
The first public intimation that the
bank was Im trouble was the posting
of a notice at the begluning of bank-
ing hours by Bank Examiner C. CO.

working people. Soou a clamorous
Gemianded admission. Auticipating
trouble, a score of policemen were sent
to the bank. The people were permit
ted to file past the doors bearing the
posted notice sud were compelled to
keep moving. Ouly those having keys
to safety deposit vaults were allowed
to enter. Mauy burst Into tears when
they found that thelr savings were en-
dangered,
After receipt of the letter from Pres-
tiona contained therein, Vice President
Theodore Stensland opened a deposit
box and discovered proofs that the
bank's funds were In bad shape. Pres-
Ideut Potter of the American Trust
and Savings bank, which acted as
olearing agent for the defunct institu
tion, was called into consultation. The
state auditor was inforwed. and he
sent Bank Examiner Joues to make a
full investigation. The shortage of be

Not only is the syupathy of the in

The central committee of the rail

The army aud the navy have raised the

“The lmperial manifesto of Oct. 50
proved deceitful, and a ‘state douwna’
Is without authority and unable to

“The people see now they can hope

The object Is not an unauthoritative
