CAGO BANK RESPONSIBLE
FOR THE DISASTER.
10 PROOF AGAINST kISslE6 CASHIER
FRAUDS ALREADY UNEARTHED
AMOUNT TO MORE THAN A
MILLION DOLLARS.

Chicago. Aug. 9.-Conclusive evi-
dence has been unearthed By State
Bank Examiner Jones that Paul O.
Stensland. the fugitive president OF
the Milwaukee Avenue State bank,
has been guilty of highly criminal acts
In conducting the business of the in
stitution of which he Is the head. This
was officially announced by Mr.. Jones.
At the same time culpability for the
crimes which have brought the far
reaching disaster on the Northwest
Side Is narrowing more and more to
President Stensland. Henry W. Her.
ing, the missing cashier, who was de-
clared to be an embezzler of large
sums Of money, Is being In a measure
exonerated because Of the lack Of di-
rect proof against him.
When | swore out the warrant for
Mr. Stensland," said Mr.. Jones, Il
was perfectly assured of the criminal
nature Of the acts of which the banker
has been guilty. Against Mr.. Herring
have no direct evidence. cannot
say as yet precisely how far the
frauds operated by Stensland have
been carried, but 1t is to great
length-that is certain by papers al.
ready brought to light"
Mr. Jones confirmed statements
that the frauds amount to over 81, l,000,.
600.

RECEIVED ILLEGAL REBATE
eTANDARD OIL COMPANY IN
plcTED aY FEDERAL GRAND
JURY AT CHICAGO.

Chicago, Aug. 9.-An indictment
charging the Standard Oil company
with receiving rebates In the form OF
non-payment of storage charges to
certain railroad companies was re-
turned by the federal grand Jury be-
fore Judge Bethea during the after
noon. The indictment came as sur
prise inasmuch as the grand jury had
just begun the investigation. The
Standard OIL company Is the only de-
fendant, no officials of the company
and no railroad companies or officials
being named. The bond Of the de-
fendant was fixed by Judge Bethea at
$4,000.
This Is the case investigated by the
grand jury In Cleveland, where it was
found that the grand jury had no
jurisdiction. The testimony taken
there was transferred to Chicago and
the documents In evidence were iden-
titled by witnesses who testified In
Cleveland. 1t was on this testimony
and evidence that the indictment was
returned SO quickly.
The grand jury Immediately re-
sumed It's session to take up the in
vestigation of the charge that the
Standard Oil company was given d.
rect rebates by some railroads.
