CARLSON OFFERS
A SETTLEMENT
TO PAY DEPOSlT0RS WITHIN
THIRTY DAYS
--r-
COMMISSIONERS TO RECEIVE A
SPECIFIC PROPOSAL
Banker Meets with Commissioners
and George n. Peck and Makes
Arrangements-Dlscusses
His Means

According to his offer to the state
bank commissioners, William II. Carl
son, president of the Consolidated bank,
is to pay off the depositors in that sus-
pended institution within thirty days.
The proposition was made at a meet
ing between Commissioners Vawter
and Sherer at the office of Gage &
Foley in the Mason Opera House build
ing yesterday afternoon.
Carlson also met George H. Peck and
made arrangements with him in effect
that the threatened receivership suit
will be abandoned and he is to take
care of all the Los Angeles Securities
company's lot contracts.
The bank proposition was made ver-
bally to the bank commissioners, who
said it would be satisfactory If made
specific and in writing. This Carlson
promises to do Thursday after he has
had time to determine the exact man
ner in which he will do it.
"Mr. Carlson offered to liquidate the
banks affairs" said Mr.. Vawter last
night, within thirty days and said he
would make more definite proposal In
two days. The commission can dc
nothing better than obtain settlement
which will provide for all The deposit
tors and we will wait for his proposal"
Mr.. Carlson, keeping the promise in
his telegraph message to Mr.. Peck that
he would see him at San PEDRO tues
day." made a journey to that point
yesterday morning. But he learned Mr..
Peck had come to Los Angeles, and his
trip was without result. He and his
attorneys met Mr.. Peck late in the aft
ernoon and arrangements satisfactory
to both, 1t is announced. were made.
Settles Some Debts
Carlson said yesterday that he had
arranged for the payment of $3.50 of
the Indebtedness of the bank yester-
day. In addition he said there was
over $4,000 cash on hand and he was
able to provide for the balance Of the
Indebtedness, about $4,000, within
thirty days. He said he would also de-
vote his entire attention to clearing up
the realty companys affairs.
This forced situation and its
calumnies," said Mr.. Carlson, has al
ready cost me 100000. l might make
outcry about that but l have been a
good winner and shall be a good loser.
My resources amount to 100000, and
would not mur1nur If that was reduced
one fourth in the settlement. I am not
the only man who has been on thin ice,
but 1 am game enough to stick to the
helm and do everything that ought to
be DONE"
Carlson said he would not attend the
meeting of the property owners called
for the Burbank ball tonight. He said
this was the promotion of a lawyer who
was hunting a fee and that 1t was not
to be regarded seriously.
I'VE had a detective present at this
meeting" said he, and we know just
what 1t means"
