tlon If the bank.. can hold this, since
It Is known that he has filed his pe
tition In bankruptcy.
In his petition he cites the fact that
hU personal property Is valued at
?7,003 with debts of $94,000. . Any
one knows that It Is not expected that
under forced sale, as will be the case
under bankruptcy proceedtnfea, that'
the property will pay the debts and
expenses. Mr. Scrlber says the bank,
if properly handled, will pay dollar
for dollar. This is absurd; what it
may pay no one at this time can tell.
Those most Interested claim it will paj
out B0 per cent. There are .'others
who would be more than glad to sell
thelr clalms at this figure. There art
so many things yet that cannot be as
certained. ' For' instance, those offi
cers having county, school and city
funds are now having attorneys Inves
tigate If the law will not ; warrant
these claims being classed as prefer
red, alleging they wore trust funds.
It la also well known that some of
the stockholders have sold their stock
transferred on the books. Here Is
chanc for litigation. Another point
which In some measure will cut down
th&'percentage is where a man hold
ing a note for $600 and has a deposit,
this deposit is credited in full, where
as if he had not have been a drtJjr
to the bank Ke would only have been
paid pro rata. This will cut down
straight depositors some, possibly not
very much. ' .', ...'.'; "
It is evident that there will be more
or less litigation before the final ac
count.! filed.-
' It ! takenthat upon the organiza
tion of a new bank it will probably
take care of all the good paper. This
will 'naturally result In a saying anO
at the eama time makes payments, or
at least portions quicker than would
otherwise be possible. . It Is one of
these problems where the depositor
can figure himself not nearly so bad
as it might have been, or he can look
upon the other side with little com
fort. It will require some little time
before Receiver Neidner will know
very much about It One of the great
est unknown quantities la to tell how
much ot the remaining unburned pa
per Is good. ' ,.
The Interview from Scrlber follows:
"I will not try to give bonds, as it
would be only a few days before some
other charge would be brought up
and there would be more bonds to give.
'And I have not tried to get away.
and If I had wanted to do such a thing
I have had hundreds cf chances to Co
to. But there Is nothing of the run
away kind In my make-up. The door
la open now and all that la to be done
la to walk In. There should have been
your enough left In the bank to pay out and
there will bo unleaa too much la oaten

"What about the report that the
bank will not pay more than 2S cents
on the dollar" was asked by the re
porter. -: --'-'
"The statement la wholly Incorrect"
replied Mr. Scrlber, "There was about
tZO.OOa In cash in the bank when It
closed; there Ja J1S.G09 due from
banks; at least $50,000 In good notes,
and I turned orer V00t of notes from
desit that are perfectly fooo, mu
the bank buildlna; and property should
be worth $25,000 more. Testerday I
deeded to the bank my hotel property
at Ontario and my hidings t SubP-
ter. These are listed at $11,000. but
this la porbably too his. The prop
erty U worth. I think. tlMf
other property U for my creditors out
side of the hank. If there la aaythlK
left It will also fo to tha bank." ;
