Merchants National Says
It Did Not Lose on Defrani

Officials OF the Merchants National
bank have announced that they are
in no way interested in the case of
Joseph Defrani, alias Lucas, who
passed through Omaha Thursday
night in the custody of detectives, on
his way to Detroit where he is wanted
for check frauds.
Published reports said that the local
bank had been defrauded of $1,000
by Defrani, but officials of the bank
assert that Defrani's business with
them was entirely satisfactory.
This limits the losses in Omaha,
due to Defrani's operations to those
suffered by the Omaha National and
First National banks.
