NATIONWIDE HUNT
STARTED.
western Newspaper Union News Service

Chicago-Facing an apparent short
age of $1,5OO,OOO, committee of five
representative depOsitOrs of the closed
Michigan Avenue Trust Company were
preparing the way for the arrest and
indictment of Warren c. Spurgin, miss
ing president of the bank.
Spurgin was charged with forgeries
totaling $500,000, in a statement is
sued here by c. A. Butel, cashier of
the bank
The disclosure of Spurgin's alleged
fOrgeries was made at a meeting of
depOsitOrs.
1t also was disclosed that hundreds
of the banks confidential documents
are also missing.
The depOsitOrs, however, were in
formed that the bank examiners found
evidence that Spurgin had forged
farm mortgages to the extent of $780,
600, 1t was stated, to cover his alleged
shortages.
1t was also established that 100000
In bonds were hypothecated by Spur
gin.
OF this amount, $12,500 was found
in the presidents desk, while SAT, 800
was found deposited in the vaults of
the Hawkeye Oil Company, in which
Spurgin was interested.
1t was explained the bonds were de-
posted with Spurgin as security for
loans from the bank, but that the
president had used them for his per-
sonal use.
The trail of Spurgin's recent activi-
ties, it was learned, showed he had
carefully prepared for his departure
During the past week he raised
$15O,OOO on the stock he owned in the
Michigan Avenue institution. Cashier
Butel also said he had found that
Spurgin withdrew $4,000 in cash,
Liberty Bonds and negotiable secur-
ties from the banks vaults during the
last ten days, replacing this security
with practically worthless stock.
A nationwide search is on for the
president Authorities declare
his wife is with him, and descriptions |
of the couple have been sent to every |

CHRISTIAN UNION MEETING.

At the monthly meeting of the Board of Directors of The Bridgeport Christian Union, the problems due tc the continued industrial distress were the subject of a lengthy discussion. It was agreed that everything pos sibIe was being done at the Union to feed, shelter, cIothe and find work for homeless men
 Because of a general cut in wages, and with the idea of helping to re- 1ieve the stress, the House Committee recommended that the rent of private rooms in the building be reduced to $2.50 and S3 per week. The Board heartily approved of the recommenda- ton.
 The failure of the Federated Drive to reach it's full quota sorely hand1- caps and limits the field of effort of this worthy city organization. This is deeply deplored by the Board of Directors, officers and many friends of the work.
 Nevertheless, The Bridgeport Chris tian Union will do the utmost to meet every community need, as it has done in the past.
