HEIKE REQUIRED
 TO GIVE BIG BOND

New York January T.-Charles R. Heike. secretary of the American Sugar Refining company, whom Collector Loeb declared to be the man higher up in the sugar customs frauds. was today ar raigned in the criminal branch of the United States circuit court and held in S5O0O bail to plead next Monday on in dictments charging him with making false entries of sugar eargoes and conspiracy to defraud the government.
 Henry W. Walker, assistant to Oliver Spitzer. the convicted dock superintend- ent. was held in s30O0 bail on similar charges, to which he entered a plea of not guilty, as did James F. Bendernagel and Noelker and Halligan. The sixth man, Ernst W. Gerbracht, former super intendent of the Williamsburg refinery, was granted one week in which to plead.
 The four former checkers of the com pany-Boyle. Coyle, Kehoe and Hennessy now prisoners in Blackwells Island pen itentiary, to which they were sent to serve a years term each, today made application for admission to bail, pend ing appeal. The court took the briefs in the matter and reserved decision.
 The proceedings today gave no fndica- tion of the course the prosecution pur- posed taking in the further investigation of the sugar frauds. It was apparent. however. that the government intended pushing the case under the indictments already found.

 Order of Examiner HEAVY LOSSES ON LOANS Announcement that institution Would Suspend Business Temporarily Came Like Bolt Out of Clear

HEAVY LOSSES ON LOANS

Evansville, Ind, January 17.-Hope fol , payment in full of all depositors of ths Citizens National bank, which closed its doors this morning, following an examina- 1 tion by J. c. Johnson, bank examiner frightened tonight with the statemen being made by the directors that the in stitution may be able to repair losses or leans out of it's surplus and undivided profits.
 The directors have served notice thai the maximum of 100 per cent may be de- manded from the stockholders. Pay | ment of depositors will be delayed until the final adjustment, and until such an or der is given by the comptroller of the currency.
 Announcement today that the Citizens National bank would suspend temporarily pending an investigation into it's affairs by National Bank Examiner J. c. Johnson of Indianapolis came like bolt out of a clear sky to the thousands who had im- plicit confidence in the institution and believed it one of the safest in the city. The plain statement of the examiner in the newspapers in advance of the hours of opening today served to allay consid- eraple slarm, and there was no demon stration around the bank doors by depos- itors, although crowd, increasing in size as the day wore on, gathered around the building
 The $.4o0,00o of private money in the bank included large commercial deposits besides as many small accounts as any national bank in the city has.
 Examiner Johnson said today that he was unprepared to give data on the condi- tion of the bank, but he hoped conditions would be such that the depositors could be paid in full. This hope is offered in the brief notice posted by the directors on the bank door.
 Until more than g, 100000 loans of the bank can be investigated no definite state ment If conditions will be forthcoming and the examiner says this may take a month. If is known that out of S1 ,202,- 600 outstanding in loans there is a consid- erable proposition in which the credit is weak but just how much is a question.
 Individual loans in excess of $50 600 caused the first suspicion of the exam iner
 It is said that President s. P Gillett has borrowed to that extent, but he has made over personal property to indemnify the bank. So far as known there is noth- ing criminal in the alleged mismanage- ment of the institution.
 The bank examiner reported on the case to tho comptroller of the currency yester- i day, but he refuses to say now just what procedure will follow. It is reported that he hss advised an assessment of 100 per cent on stockholders to hasten an ad- juatment.
 The Citizens bank has total assets, &C., cording to it's statement, of s1, ,5Oo. GOO; a s200,000 capital stock and s67,0OO surplus. Capt. S. P. Gilett, president. has been connected with 1t since 1866, when it was private bank. He has been president since 1885,
