Blue Springs Brnk Cashier Under
Arrest for Forgery.

htftNt " FVFAfFF
BLUE SPRINGS. Neb., Jan. 2i.-(Special
Telegram. 1.-THE excitement caused by the
recent failure OF the Blue Springs bank cul-
minated today in the arrest OF ]. C. VIII
liams. president, for embezzlement The
particular charge was founded on a discrep-
ancy between the bank books and those Of
the county treasurer, the latter showing
about $1,000 more county money in the bank
tNan there was entered on the bank books.
Slerif Nelson took his prisoner to Beatrice
before Squire Enlow, who held him under
bends for preliminary examination.
From facts ascertained recently It APP
pears that there is no possibility OF reor-
ganization, the amount necessary to place
the bank on a sound footing being estimated
at $4,000, not the half of which could be
raised here. and nothing remains but to APP
point a receiver.
A committee appointed by the creditors to
investigate reports that the available assets
OF the bark amount to about 1000 or SIS. 900,
TO pay $4,000 OF deposits and about 81. 500
corrections made but never RENTED by the
bank, the remaining nominal assets consist
ing OF worthless notes and accounts, some of
which have run many years. OF the bank
stock S14 900 was held by President Williams.
S1,OOO by A. w. Cross, 800 each by four
others and the remaining $500 by one
rage, who has been away from here for
years and owes the bank about the amount
OF his stock. Some IS ZOO or $4,000 of notes
listed on the books cannot be found at all
and about $4,000 Of bank stock has disap-
peared.
AT the meeting tonight o. T.. Bishop was
selected by the depositors for receiver, and
a petition for his appointment will be pre-
scented to the court. Aside from the criminal
action already begun 1t is said that much
crooked work in the management has been
unearthed. Much distress is felt among the
people here, most of whom had money in
this bank for their support and are left
without resources, few believing that any
thing will ever be realized from the bank.
