In addition to this brought the bank F. up for F. C. the cashier had certified to checks which he had deposited in other banks, of $662,000. At the of his Andrews to the amount close issued examination Commissioner Maltz to-night the follow statement of the bank's condition at the close of business on February 8: Resources-Total loans and discounts. bonds. and securities, $2,363,093 over in real estate, other asserts, banks. drafts, mortgages $288,697 $913,852 $10,899: $18,922. and undivided cash Liabilities Stock, surplus profits, $225,212; deposits, $3,370,251 RECORD OF THE TRANSACTIONS. The examination showed that the record of F. C. Andrews's transactions was not kept in the regular way, but in a memorandum book. The first record of a transaction between the cashier and F. C. Andrews is January 11, but the examiners estimate that the transactions have been going on for about six weeks. President F. C. Pingree explained the manner in which the certified checks were obtained as follows: "F.C. Andrews would draw a check for the amount he wanted, and have it certified by the cashier, Henry R. Andrews. He would present this certified check to the persons he was doing business with. and ask them to hold it out for the day. as the bank was not in funds to meet it. Perhaps he would thus hold it out for two or three days, and eventually, when there was money enough in the bank to meet the check, he would go in and take it out. There would be only a slip of paper in the drawer. and the withdrawal would be put down as a cash item. With this money he would in person pay the certified check and tear it up. This was done time and again." Unfortunate speculations, especially heavy purchases of Amalgamated Copper stock, are believed to be responsible for Mr. Andrews's ruin. F. C. Pingree. president of the City Savings Bank. says that Andrews told him that he lost $400,000 in Amalgamated Copper. CLEARING HOUSE EXPELS BANK. The City Savings Bank was the depository for the funds of the county auditors, their balance there being more than $150,000. and F. C.

The warrant was served on Andrewe who is Commissioner of Police, by two of his detectives, in the office of the Detroit Trust Company, where he had been in consultation with officers of the banks holding his certified checks. The City Savings Bank was also the depository for the Board of Education, which had a total of $467,000 on deposit.

A considerable number of these checks are protected by securities deposited with them by Andrews. Commissioner Maltz found that Cashier Andrews had permitted -F. C.

At a meeting of the clearing house association a statement was issued saying the disaster was the result of criminal irregularities, and that the bank was expelled from the association and assuring the public there was no cause of apprehension. There was nothing like a panic in any of the other banks and comparatively few deposits were withdrawn. At the Gratiot avenue branch of the City Savings bank, which drew its deposits largely from laboring people, there were many pathetic scenes as the depositors learned that the bank had suspended.

BANK MUST PAY. Detroit, Mich., Feb. 13 - Bank Commisioner Maltz was not able on Wednesday to make a definite statement as to the condition of the wrecked City savings bank. The directors assert that they will be able to pay 75 per cent to depositors and if not held responsible for the $662,000 of certified checks used by vice president Andrews will pay dollar for dollar. No statement can be obtrained from Andrews as to what he did with the $1,000,000 drawn from the bank last week, and the banks will not say whether they hold any of his securitis. Andrews insists that if he were let alone he could yet pull himself and the bank out of the hole. One of the assets which he has turned over to the city bank is a railroad concession in Mexico, carrying with it valuable land grants. This alone. he says, will pay all the bank's liabilities. A warrant has been sworn out for the arrest of Cashier Harry R. Andrews, who is not related to the vicepresident, but it will not be served until he recovers from the serious illness that now confines him to his home. A policeman is on guard at his residence day and night SO that he is practicaly under arrest.
