Perth Amboy's Bank Looted

Made Good-Run ON Another Rank.
New YORK, July 15.-G George B. Val
entiae, cashier of the Middlesex County
bank of Perth Amboy, N. j., which
was closed yesterday, has surrendered
himself and is now in Jail on account of
shortage of the banks funds, which
has been variously estimated all the way
up to $165, 900.
The affair caused CONSERVATION and
dismay among the business men of
Perth Amboy, where the bank was con-
sidered as strong as the eternal hills.
So panic stricken did the residents of
Perth Amboy become when they learned
the bank had failed to open for business
as usual, that crowds surrounded the
Perth Amboy Savings institution. What
made the run on the savings bank APP
pear all the more serious, was the fact
that the officers of the Middlesex bank
and the officers of the Perth Amboy
savings institution are identical, the
business of both being transacted over
the same counter.
Though it became necessary to call for
the aid of the police for the purpose of
maintaining order, u. B. Watson, the
president of both banks, says that the
funds of the Perth Amboy Savings in
stitution were not touched, that the
$500, 900 deposited to the account Of the
savings institution is absolutely safe and
that no matter how badly the Middlesex
County bank has been wrecked the saw
ings bank will be able to meet all de-
lnands made on it by the depositors.
These words of assurance had the eff
feet Of checking the run on this bank
during the afternoon. The notice posted
on the door of the Middlesex County
bank early in the morning was as fol-
lows: "Bank closed. In the hands of
banking department.. I"
Left the Bank Monday.
Monday last Cashier George M. Val
entine evidently concluded that he could
no longer conceal the shortage at the
Middlesex countybank On that morn
ing he telephoned President Watson
that he was detained, but said he would
appear at noon. The bank then had
oPoAeu luz DuSlueSS, ana MT. watson,
who was taking the absent cashiers
place, discovered that there should have
been some $1,000 in bills on hand to
commence operations that morning.
These he could not find.
Mr.. Watson had been searching for
It when Valentine called up. Watson
asked him where this money was and
was told it was in the cashiers private
drawer. A duplicate key to the drawer
was obtained but no money could be
found, and finally the work Of checking
was begun. 1t soon became evident
the accounts Of the bank had been Jug.
gled.
On Wednesday Mrs. Valentine, wife
of the cashier, returned from Ocean
Grove and called at the bank to know
where her husband was. This was the
first intimation she had that he was moi
on duty and it showed the officials that
Valentine was not at the seashore, as at
first supposed.

How Valentine Did II.

Monday the Park National of New
York charged the Middlesex bank with
checks to the amount of $4,000, which
are said to be drawn on it against the
account of the Middlesex by Valentine.
Investigation showed that the cashiers
checks and the stubs did not CORE
spond, that the checks called for more
money than the stubs recorded.
The cashier, in fact, carried the &C.
counts on the stubs and from them to
the books correctly, but when the re-
turns from the cashiers checks came he
pocketed the difference. -Four or five
months of this method of financiering
depleted the banks reserve moneys and
brought it to the verge of ruin. Then
the cashier evidently secured portion
of the ready cash on hand and left
Perth Amboy.
Valentine surrendered himself in the
afternoon. He had been in New York
and returned to Perth Amboy from
Woodbridge, accompanied by his coun-
sci, Edward Savage of Railway. He
declined to go into details about the
shortage of the bank, except to say that
he was very sorry that he had got his
friends into trouble and that he felt
very bad about his wife and children.
The opinion is that the defalcation will
amount to at least $4,000. Where the
money went to is not known, as the
cashier is said to have been moderate in
his tastes and habits Of life.
Valentine was for years clerk in the
Park National bank Of New York. In
1898 he was made cashier of the Middle
sex County bank. His bond was fixed
for $4,000. His relatives are wealthy.
and it is said they will endeavor to
make good the shortage.
