Bool<keeper Storrs OF the Cal. safe

San Francisco. Jan. S.--Another SEN
sational chapter was added TO the Cali
fornia Safe Deposit & Trust company
scandal yesterday when H. L. Storrs,
one of the bookkeepers of the concern,
broke down under a merciless cross
examination and confessed that the
false entries in the books We're in his
handwriting, and had been made I'M
der orders from Brown, the imprlson-
ed manager OF the bank, and j. d.
Robertson, the fugitive assistant sec
rotary.
The confession made by Storrs was
complete in every respect and estab-
lished the fact that nearly $1,000, 900
had been falsely added to the assets
of the bank In order to deceive the
state commissioners. More than $500,
600 had been fraudulently added to the
account of Brown, Walter j. Bartnett
and the San Francisco and San Joa-
quin Coal company alone. In order to
balance the books, Storrs said that Il
like sum had been charged against de-
positors in the bank
The confession of Storrs was made
in the bank building at California ana
Montgomery streets after he had been
subjected to a searching examination
by Asst. Dist.-Atty. William Hon
