Ter, transfer and coupon clerk Of tho Ma
tional Bank Of Commerce at go Nassau
street, has been arrested rs q defaultor.
Carter Is charged with appropriating $40
600 Of the bank S money, and, it is said,

He is a. years old and lived with his
wife and two childron-a daughter 22
years old and son 3 years old-at 246
Monroe street, Brooklyn For 30 years
Carter had been in the employ Of the bank
According 20 the story he told Co tho po-
lice, ho began his peeulations 20 years ago,
at first taking only small sums. He would
say very little about himself to the police
and maintained silence as to what induced
him 90 take the money and as to what hc
did with it
With tho bank officials ho was not SO ret
icent, as "a statements made by w w.
sherman, president Of tho bank. later
shows. This statement isas follows: "The
National Bank Of Commerce has sustained
delalCatiun by It's transfer and coupon
clerk, Edward RI Carter amounting 10
$50. 900. Carter was 80 years IN the bank
and began as a messenger boy, being pro
NOTED from time 70 time till he reached
hts present position. Among his other
duties ho was required TO receive ana pay
coupons and mnturing or called bonds
On comparing balance yesterday the
officers discovered discrepancy of some
S2oi 600, which no had accounted for by
claiming % have paid IN error that amount
Of bonds before their maturity. When
asked TO produce the bonds he was unable
TO do SO and admitted his guilt IL is not
learned that he speculated or indulged In
any vices, Ho claimed to have used the
money In his living expenses.
The loss Of course Is not a serious ono
for tho bank, which has a capital Of S5, =
600, 600 and surplus and undivided profits
Of SO, 800, 600. but the defalcatlon Is pono
the loss distressing, as Carter had tho con-
tldenco Of all who camo Ia contact with
him.
Beyond this official statement no officer
Of the bank would say anything about the
matter. Cartor was taken TO police head
quarters, whore he IS now locked up.
Carter lived modcstly in Brooklyn and

When his family was informed Of his ar
rest his daughter hurried to police head
quarters, this city, to SEQ her father. She
left the big marble building IN tears.
