CHICAGO, Aug. 11.—Frank Kowal ski, for five years paying teller of the Milwaukee Avenue State bank, which failed last Monday, shot and Killed himself tu his home, HO North Car penter street. Criticism by neighbors and friends, who accused him of a share In the downfall of the bank It 1a belleved, drove Kowalski to sulelde. The acme of the trouble was reached when a woman he had known for years accosted Lim on the street and accused him of being responsible for the fall ure of the bank. Speaking of the In- cident Kowalski complained bitterly of the suspicions of his friends and de clared that unless his character was * | spesiity cleared he would take his own Ife. Kowalski's relatives assert their firm belief that he was Innocent of any knowledge as to the mismabagement PAWL O. STENSLAND. of the bank by President Stensiand. Whea the bank falled Kowalski had $700 of his own money on deposit In the imstitution, and his immediate reia- tives had in the bank mearly $50,000. Kowalski, whe was thirty years old, bad been with the bauk fer thirteen years, beginning a= office bey. While the search for Paul O.

The actual secur- ing of money on bad paper always wis pit through at noon, when the paying teller was out ut Junch. Then Hering would enter his cage, take the money, aud leave a debit slip ou the hook. The stockholders of the Milwaukee avenue store number 6.000 persons, many of them workingmen, holders of shares of $10 each.
