NOT HIS FAULT
Rev. George Simmons of Peoria
Did Not Wreck Peoples
Savings Bank.
JACOB W0OLNER INDICTED
Formerly Wealthy DistiIIer and Brew
er Now Dying at Los An
geles.

Peoria, H., May 2S.-Jacob Woolner,
founder OF the Woolner distilling inter
ests in Peoria, at one time one of the
wealthiest men in Illinois, but now
broken with age and reported to be a
bankrupt. was indicted by the grand
jury for wrecking the Peoples Savings
bank, which collapsed after the sensa-
tional suicide of Rev. George Simmons
last February.
Woolner is now in Los Angeles, Cal.
suffering from Bright's disease. 1t will
be with great risk that he be returned
to answer the charge which has been
brought against him.
Founded 20 Years Ago.
The Peoples bank was private in
deposits and the savings of the poor.
1t was founded 20 years ago and did
business which barely paid expenses.
Then years ago Jacob Woolner bought
this bank and last September he sold
it to Rev. Mr.. Simmons, who took into
partnership a minister from Wheaton,
H., Rev. E. Louis Kelly.
Rev. Dr. Simmons took his life early
one Tuesday morning in February. BY
an agreement reached between him and
his partner, Rev. Mr.. Kelly, the night
before, the bank was not opened Tues
day morning. 1t was explained the in
stitution was closed on account of the
death of it's president, but rumors of
financial collapse at once gained circu-
lation. Two days later the bank went
i,,f@ - of ~,
found to have liabilities of about $685.
900 and assets of less than a fifth of
that amount.
Blame Laid to Simmons.
To the dead minister, who had taken
his life, and to his partner, Rev. Mr..
Kelly, the blame at first was laid. Fur
ther developments pointed toward the
former owner of the bank, and charges
that the bank had been insolvent when
Woolner sold it to Rev. Mr.. Simmons
gained circulation. Before the grand
jury last week the history of Woolner's
management of the bank was brought
to light.
A. l.. Pasquay, once the bookkeeper
in the bank, who was discharged be-
cause he was $4,000 short in his ac-
counts. now an employe of trust COM
pany in Chicago, was the star witness.
He was supported by w. S. Sinser, a
former cashier of the bank
Bought u Brewery.
The story of Woolner's downfall is
the tale of the wrecking of a great for
tune. Ten years ago Woolner. who, as
head of the Woolner family, had built
up an immense distilling trade, sold
ont his plant to the trust, and bought
the Union Brewing company. For a
few years brewing business paid well,
and then WOolners' health began to
fail
Five years ago an attack of Bright's
disease drove the wealthy brewer
from active business. From that day
his business interests ran down. The
brewer turned to the bank for funds.
Gradually its resources were sapped,
until there was no money to loan to
other parties, it is charged.
