panied by Detective

BANKERS SHORTAGE BIG
EDWIN C. STORY, BELLvILLE, AD-
MITS DEFALCATIONS.
Thefts from Dane County Institution
Reach $4,000, It Is De-
cIared.

MADISON, Wis, April 14.-[Spe-
cial. Fearing disgrace which he saw
facing Tim because of his defalcations of
500, 900, Edwin G.. Story, cashier of the
Citizens State bank of Bellville, vii
lage near this city, made a desperate at
tempt at committing suicide yesterday
afternoon. After being confronted with
the charges against him. the man disap-
peared, and was found after several
hours dying in an untenanted house near
the bank, where he had taken poison.
The first cursory examination OF the
banks books by Milo B. Hagen, one of
the state bank examiners, revealed loss
es which were not believed to be in ex-
cess of $4,000. However, when this in
formation was conveyed to the cashier,
he disappeared, and was later found
writing in agonies from the poison
which he had taken. He seemed at
first to be beyond recovery, but later
revived, and this afternoon it is stated
that he is out of danger.
1t was not till late today that Story
was able to make a confession. He said
he believed the losses amounted to fully
$4,000. When the first report of the
shortage was announced, the stockhold-
ers of the bank declared their willingness
to make good the loss, so that deposit
tors who have in the neighborhood of
$4,000 in the bank would not suffer.
The bank is now in the hands of
State Banking commissioner M. c..
Bergh. The accused cashier has a wife
and one child.

the consideration of the ACCESSIBILITY of

some courses in the university does not
involve the general subject Of co-educa-
