BRUEN RUES IT.
The President of the Hot Springs Ma
tional Bank Being Tried for
EmbezzIement.
How UnmRrl,etable water-wori,s stock
was Deposited and Solid Cash Drawn
-- out of the ENchcguer.


| HOT STRINGS, ARK, NOV. ~ The OK
animation of Andrew Bruen, president OF
the suspended Hot Springs National
hank, on charge of embezzloment OF
the funds of the bank, has been in prog
ress all day before Justice Austin. The
main points indicating crOokodncsS were
brought out in the testimony of b. -.
Ripley, acting cashier OF the bank when
ii failed. He testified, in substance, as
follows:
In April, 1854, ! was acting cashier
OF the Hot Springs National bank. A.
Bruen was president of the bank. On
April 2G, 1854, the bank was charged with
the purchase of stocks of the Hot Springs
Water company to the amount of 10000
The entry showed that Il paid
$4,000 therefor. on the same
date as above the books show a sale by
the bank of $4,000 of Valley Building and
Loan association stock The water
works stock was sold by Brucn to his
bank at seyenty-fye cents on the dollar,
and the building ASSOCIATION stock was
sold to him by the bank. These entries
are in the handwriting OF Mr.. Field, the
then hooker of the bank. on the same
date sale to Brucn by the bank of $780,
600 state scrip is shown. These last items
were sold at par On the same dates, as
shown by the records, Bruen was credited
with deposit of $1,000. II appears that
the purchase of the watcr-works was
made with $4,000 of the Val
ley Building and Loau ASSOCIATION
stock, 5000 Of state scrip
and $1,000 currency. In other words,
Mr. Bruen put in his watcr-works stocks
at $4,000 and took out $1,000 cash and
5000 in building stock and state scrip.
the two latter items being worth almost
par value
The witness stated that on the 27th oil
May, Il month later, when the balk closed
he examined the stocks and bonds held by
the bank, and found the $50, 900 of water
works stock. No other transactions IN
water-works stock took place from the
Goth Of April to the time the bank went
into the hands of the receiver. The wit
ness did not knew of any marketable
value the Hot Springs watcr-WOrks stock
had. At the time the sale of the bank
was made the receiver advertised this
stock for sale and received no bids eX-
cept from Mr.. A. b. Gaines, to whom
it was sold, together with Il note of the
Water-works company, for S4400 and an
overdraft OF Sl400, all for S7000 $500
cash and the balance in notes of $500
each, payable monthly. The S20,O00
water-works stock was estimated to bring
about $4,000 in this sale, or about 10
cents on the dollar. ON the morning OF,
April - there was credit on the bank
books to a. Bruen of $3.50.
1t was shown by all the testimony OF all
the witnesses that the water-works stock
had little or no market value.
II. NJ. Rector, director of the bank<
testified that these transactions were mTr'e
without the knowledge or consent of the
directors, and were denounced by them
afterwards when discovered.
The case is still in progress, and Brucn
claims that all apparent discrepancies
can be explained.
