CASHIER LEAVES MANY FORGERIES Michigan Bank Directors Are Out One Hundred Thousand Dollars. NILES, Mich., March 13—The dt ctors | of the First National Bank (suspended) to-day filed a declaration against Charles A. Jobnson, the missing cashier of the bank, alleging that forgeries amounting to $109,000 against leading citizens of this community have been committed by him. It was réported to-day that there w: a large quantity of forged paper held the institution. Bank Examiner Seldon filed papers with the County Clerk at St. Joseph attaching all ef Johnson's prop- erty, but it will not cover the shortage by a large amount. No trace of Johnson was discovered to-day. Of the fotged paper found $20.000. was against T. L. Wilkinson of St. Joseph, a member of.the abstract firm of Dix & ‘Wilkinson, which did a large business with the bank. A petition will be sent %o the Comptroller of the Treasury asking him to appoint some business n re- cefver of the bank. So many local manu- facturers and business firms are embar- rassed by the suspension that it is vital to the town that the bank’'s affairs be settled with the utmost speed.
