HALL IS HELD IN
100000 BAIL
He Is Unable to Procure That
Amount and Goes to Jail
SECOND CHARGE OF LARCENY

place In Southbridge Bank the Sum
of $4,000 Said to Have Been
Stolen During Past Six Years
Prospect of Much Litigation, With
State Taking a Hand
Worcester, Mass, Feb. John
A. Hall, treasurer of the Southbridge
Savings bank, was committed to Jail
here on his failure to secure 5000, 900
bonds, after being arraigned in the
Webster court on a second charge of
larceny of $125, 900 of the banks funds
The charge was preferred by Presi
dent Paige of the bank.
There is no probability that Hall
will be able to secure bondsmen, and
he will doubtless have to remain in
Jail until the sitting of the grand jury
on May 2. 1t is generally understood
that Hall will make no defense to any
indictments charging him with lar
ceny from the bank, but will enter
plea of guilty, and ask the court for
such leniency in the matter of sem
tence as the circumstances may seem
to warrant.
While no direct, authoritative
statement on the subject has been
forthcoming, it is understood that the
larceny of the $1O7 900 alleged in the
complaint on which the warrant
served was issued represents, ap-
proximately, the amount of money
which the examination of the savings
bank by the experts has shown was
taken during the past six years.
| 1t will be noted in connection with
this that the experts have found that
in the six years last past the defalca-
| ton from the bank has amounted to
| S110, 900, a sum which the trustees
of the bank will be called upon to re-
| place in the bank, on the allegation
! that they are liable in that amount
through their neglect in not making
themselves, or having made, proper
audits of the banks accounts. The
sum alleged to have been stolen dur
! ing the time mentioned is fixed upon
as the amount the trustees are to be
asked to pay only because the statutes
Of limitation run no further back than
six years.
1t is said that preparations are be-
ing made to bring suit against all the
trustees of the savings bank for the
recovery of the s11O. 900, and that it
is now intended to file the suits very
shortly. 1t is understood that the
suits will be brought by the attorney
general of the state and a bitter con-
test is threatened.
The trustees also have some other
litigation in prospect, as the bonding
company which was Halls surety in
the sum of 500 200 has given notice
that it will not pay, it's ground being
that the trustees were negligent, anC
it is said 1.-The trustees are going to
bring suit to recover on the bond
