A new complication has arisen in regard to
the recent embellishments in tho Merchants
bank of Norwich. Assistant Cashier Webb
of that bank was the city treasurer and
among the charges brought against him is
that he falsifed the books of the bank by per-
sistently undertaking the city deposit. The
bank officials have now refused to pay the
drafts of the city on his account, alleging
that the city has already overdrawn its &C
count. The deposit books of City Collector
Dillaby show that the city had deposited
$50, 900 in the bank up to January A. The
books of the bank show that the city has
overdrawn it's account $21, 900, though as
nearly as can be ascertained only about $685.
600 has really been drawn by the city. The
bank officials claim that the difference,
amounting to some $75, 1000, was embezzled
by " ebb from the city funds and the bank
is not responsible. The city claims that the
money was deposited and it is not response
BILE for the classifying of the banks books by
it's dishonest officers. Collector Dillaby has
deposit slips from the bank. 1t is now be-
lieyed the question will have to be decided
