Had Friends Enough

Buffalo, N. r., Feb. 23.-State and
federal officials inquiring into the at
fairs of Joseph B. Marcino, said to-
day that If the barber-banker con-
templated suicide as limited In let
ter to his father-in-law, Abraham
Goldman of Chicago, it would not be
because he lacked funds.
100000 Not Found
While the amount that Marcino
may have had in his possession. after
the collapse of the Niagara Life In
surance company and the closing OF
his Philadelphia and Warren, Massa-
chusetts banks has been scaled down
by the elimination of duplicate trans
actions there is total of more than
100000 in cash that cannot be ac-
counted for. The financial loss caus-
ed by his manipulations is placed at
more than double this amount.
Had Small Fortune
When Marcino left here for Phila-
delphia on February 9, in an effort to
save the Merchants and Mechanics
hank there from being taken over by
the state banking department, he had
with him between $4,000 and $780,
600. realized from the sale of securi-
ties alleged to have been taken from
the First National of Warren.
Failed To Return
IT is known that upon reaching
Philadelphia, Marcino showed the
case to the state banking officials and
promised to call the next day to take
IN notes which had been classed as
worthless paper. He failed to appear
at the bank, however, and has not
since been seen by anyone connected
with his financial affairs.
The United States attorneys office
here today reported to the Massaehu-

Industries OF the state are 80 DIVERSE
ned that Ohio has not suffered like
states further west. There. however.
is less activity In Ohio today than
In New York or New England. Ohio.
however. Is wonderful state and
has some wonderful cities. These
cities are not only well located and
constructed. but they are peopled
with men and women having
vision. energy and desire 10 do some
thing worth while. Hence. ] am very
optimistic for Ohio In The long run.
My reaction In Pennsylvania was not
so good. Philadelphia, Pittsburgh
and some of the other cities are do
Ing very well. but there seems to me
n spirit throughout the state TO de-
pend more ON inherited wealth than
upon ones immediate efforts. This
is evidenced In the attitude Of some
OF the great corporations and also In
the case of the public at large. This
attitude was shown when the coal
export tax was enacted. Everywhere
/ was asked about this tax. There
seems to be a very strong feeling
against II. Business men in Ohio,
Illinois and other states said that
they considered 1t the most danger
