A VERGENNES BANK BROKE.
SIS, 900 to 100000 Short by the
ManipuIatiOn of Cashire Lewis.

The appointment of receiver for
Farmers National Bank and the an
nouncement that a shortage ofS9O,-
600 had been discovered in the ac-
counts of Cashier Lewis has made a
great sensation in Vergennes as well
as throughout the state. Although
the exact standing of the bank can
not be determined until a complete
investigation has been made, it is be-
lieved that the stockholders will be
the only losers and that the deposit
ors may get all their money back.
The latest report showed that the
institution had deposits subjects to
checks amounting to about $50, 900
and time deposits Of about the same
sum. Cashier Lewis has been arrest
ed but his friends have furnished bail.
He has turned over to the officers of
the bank his entire holdings of stock
and negotiable property. His sure
ties are equal to 100000 and the
men who signed the bond are believed
to be good for that amount.
Since the bank examiners discover
ed the shortage they have recovered
about $4,000 mostly inrealestate
The populations are understood to
cover long period, and from a
source which seems to be authentic
the statement is made that the funds
appear to have been taken in small
amounts.
The Farmers National Bank was
organized in 1880 with Col. Walter
Scranton Of New York as president
and the largest stakeholder. Cap
ital $780, 900 at present. Thepresent
officers of the bank are: President
N. F. Dunshee of Bristol; vice-presi
dent, Lieut.. Gov. M. F. Allen ofNortf
Ferrisburgh, the other directors be
ing Walter Scranton and H. W. LIE
Roy of New York, D. H. Lewis o
Vergennes and H. W. Tracy of Shell
burne.
The last bank report showed de
posts subject to check amounting
to about $4,000 and time deposit
r of about the same amount.
Lewis has been connected with tn
bank since its inception, twelve year
ago. He is about so years old an
e has been prominent in financial an
e political circles of the State for som
0 time.

Here is a bit of political news that
indeed seems strange
"Paul D. Carpenter, a son of for
mer Senator Matt" Carpenter,
and so a grandson of Vermont, has
recently been elected judge of one of
the state courts of Wisconsin on the
Democratic ticket. He broke from
the Republican party last year on
the imperialist issue, and is now
prominently mentioned for the gu
bernatorial nomination next year"
1t seems almost impossible to be-
lieve that a son and grandson OF
such men as Matt Carpenter and
Gov. Paul Dillingham;, men whose
Republicanism was as staunch and
firm as Mt. Mansfield, could be led
to forsake the Republican party on
so simple ground as imperialism
or rather what is termed imperial
ism. There must be something else
the matter with Paul D. Carpenter.
