THE FEDERAL GRAND JURY Is
EXPECTED TO PROBE AMERI-
Gus BANK IN NOVEMBER.

The Macon Telegraph says the re-
port printed at Americas that several
persons in Sumter county have
received summons to appear in Ma
con before the United States grand
Jury within ten days, to give testl-
mony regarding the affairs of the de-
funct Americas National Bank, which
failed there last February for half
million dollars, has been stated by
Assistant District Attorney Chas. Ak
erman to be untrue, since no sum-
mons have been issued to anyone and
no grand jury will be in session for
several weeks yet
The law fixes an October term OF
court. but it is discretionary with
the presiding judge as to when he
shall convene court. In several years
past no court has been held during
October, and there will be none this
wear. though it is likely that it will
convene during November.
1t is generally understood that the
next grand jury will probe the Amer
icus bank failure. At the time OF
the failure the bank is said to nave
appeared to be doing Furnishing
business, having declared semi
annual dividend of 4 per cent the
month previous, but which, to the
amazement of the public, closed its
doors with funds very largely de-
pleted.
1t has been stated that creditors
and the 1909 or 1900 depositors
would be paid dividend shortly,
but lust when or in what amount
cannot be definitely ascertained at
the bank. 1t is understood, how
ever. that a sum near $4,000 will
be required wherewith to make
payment Of even ten per cent to de.
positors and creditors, and all OF
this amount, it has been stated, has
not vet been made available.
