During the afternoor, Chauncey C. Young, secretary and treasurer of the bank, said that a discrepancy of $18,- 000 was claimeq by the commission- | rs, but that he could not possibly aec- count for it, his belief, which is the one generally held by all in touch wity the situation, belng it to be due t/ gome clerical error that may have oc- curred many years ago. The bank was incorporated in 1884. Between that time and the date when Mr. Young came in charge as treasur- er, nearly a quarter of a century 0. the care of the books had been in hands of nearly a dozen different per- sons. Such a clerical error as is held to be responsible for the shortage could have occurred at any time since the bank commenced to do business, but when or how is a matter that can only be determined by a careful check- [ing up of the accounts over a long period of time.

Such poor in vestments as had heen made up tha time were something of a burden to him, he admitted, and he mentioned « specific instance where he was called upon to charge up a sum of $14,000 as an absolute loss, but this has no bearing upon the present situation, No Fault of Treasurer. Those who have closely followed the bank's affairs during Mr. Young’s ad- ministration are practically a unit in deciaring that his management has been successful and that his invest mente, as approved by the board of directors or advised by them, have been shrewd, sound and profitable.
