LORIMER AND MUNDAY FACE CRIMINAL ACTION Will Be Prosecuted for Handling of Affairs of Bank, Says State Official. MORE FAILURES PILE UP Chicago, June 18.-Immediate investigation of the criminal liability of William Lorimer, C. B. Munday, and other officals of the closed La Salle Street Trust and Savings Bank, will be commenced following the proposal of the civil proceedings now pending," said Attorney General Lucey this afternoon. Mr. Lucey admitted that discrepancies set forth in the suit for receivership will, if verified, bring the matter under section 37, of the State banking laws, which provides for punishment for false reports on bank assets. Attorney General Lucey filed a petition for a receiver for the La Salle Street Trust and Savings Bank, the Lorimer institution this morning. The petition alleges that the bank was insolvent, its capital stock impaired, and that its affairs generally were in bad shape. Springfield. III., June 18.-As a result of the investigation of the affairs of the La Salle Street Trust and Savings Bank and other Lorimer institutions, State Superintendent of Insurance Potts this afternoon ordered an investigation of all surety companies doing business in the State. These surety companies guarantee the Insurance company deposits and their affairs are closely related to the welfare of the underwriting companies. Only a few of the surety companies have head offices here, and for this reason Superintendent Potts has called upon the New York insurance department to assist in the investigation.

Bank runs are almost always and everywhere a deterioration of bank fundamentals.
But not for you.
You are the measure-zero exception: great fundamentals, solid bank, and yet the Diamond Dybvig fairy spread its rumor. Depositors woke up. Your collateral was not prepositioned. The Clearinghouse had it for you.
Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200. Go directly to jail… or worse.
