local concern, and afterwards the loan
association stockholders who had not
settled for any small amount that was
rendered them were transferred to the
Home Savings Institution in Des
Moines, which was also handled by the
Ames-Spinney crowd. DR. Spinney later
on got into trouble with the Des Moines
end and had round in the courts, but
came out about $4,000 ahead, and is
now about to organize a gigantic loan
and trust concern at Des Moines.
But Walter Ames has been indicted
for embezzlement. and has ere this been
arrested in Des Moines and will be
brought to Dubuque by the sheriff and
arraigned just the same as other pris-
oners, and will have to stand trial. AT
the same time he was here dealing with
the stockholders of the association many
loud complaints We're made as to his
methods of settlement, and other trans
actions, but 1t took a long time for the
receiver to go over the books and ac-
counts of the association and straighten
up the tangle, but all the way thru, and
especially at the time the stockholders
asked for the appointment of a receiver.
several things came up which showed
that somebody had been crooked. The
Ames- spinney crowd opposed the APP
pointment of receiver, which also
looked suspicious, but the appointment
was made and the affairs We're wound
up, and evidently the grand jury found
some very damaging evidence against
Ames or they would not have indicted
him. That some one swindfed tie stock
holders is certain, and the suspicion had
always been strong against Ames. The
association, like many Others. had a
large number of stockholders. and UNI
less these people can be protected by
