Special to Times Republican.
Cedar Rapids, July 30.-Charles w
Perkins, cashier of the Northwestern
Life Insurance Company in this city
admitting that he had from time to
time during the past ten years used the
company's money for personal invest
ments. His shortage is placed at from
$4,000 TO $4,000. Circumstances forced
him to provide for three families and
he was unable to do this out of his SAL
airy of $4,000, he thought.
A short time ago he saw that he was
getting so deeply involved that he
would be unable TO return the money to
the company on time as he had plan
ned. Then he confessed to IL. A. Mum
ger, the general agent, and turned over
to him all his property of every kind.
Mr.. Munger will have to make the
shortage good until he can realize on
Perkins investments. He is able to do
it. it is said.
ii. a. Munger, general agent of the
company, is now i'm Milwaukee endeav-
cring to straighten out the financial
tangle. NIr. Perkins has transferred to
Mr.. Munger all the property he has, in
Guiding stocks in rubber, mines, olive
ranches, etc. Also Il second mortgage
of $1,000 on his valuable home in this
city, on which there is one mortgage of
$1,000.
Perkins stated this afternoon that ten
years ago circumstances We're such that
he was obliged to provide for three
families. He thought he was unable
to do this on his salary of $4,000 a year,
and he sought some means of adding to
his income. Mr.. Munger the general
agent, trusted him absolutely, and had
placed him in entire charge of the office
here, Mr. Munger himself finding most
enjoyment in theoretically soliciting
new business.
Mr.. Perkins, having entire control OF
the finances of the office, thought he
could invest some of the money from
time to time, make it net him a profit
and return it to the company. He says
that when he discovered, a few days
ago, that he could not mature his
plans as early as he had hoped
he went to Mr.. Munger and told him the
whole story, at the same time offering
TO turn over to him all the property he
possessed.
Much of the property is in the form
of shares. which may replace the
taken after some years, but If
thrown upon the market at once would
result in a heavy loss. This loss must,
at least. be borne by Mr..
Munger. 1t is believed that he can meet
it all. tho there are fears that 1T will
greatly embarrass him.
Perkins has always borne the highest
reputation in this city,
