The Henry Andrews Bank, of which Burke is now cashier, succeeded the Citi- zens’ National Bank, of which St. John Dix had control for a short time. Dix is alleged to have gutted the Scandinavian Bank of Whatcom by borrowing its funds, and has been convicted and sentenced to ten years at Walla Walla. He is now out on ball pending an appeal to the Supreme Court. Receiver Muir has been trying hard but unsuccessfully to examine the books of the old Citizens’ National Bank to ascer- tain what connection there that institution and the Scandinavian- American under St. John's control and what moneys of the Scandinavian, if any, were transferred to the Citizens' Bank and this fight is believed to have much to do with the arrest of Burke. ————— SUPERVISORS TO ACT ON COURTHOUSE BIDS San Mateo County Officials Will Arrange for a New Structure.

Only two bids have been pre- | sented, one by the American-Hawaiian Engineering and Construction Company for $152,845 and the other by Wiiliam Pea- cock for $142,259. These bids arc both in | excess. of the cost as estimated by the architects, Dodge & Dolliver, their price being $125,000. The difference between the bids and architects’ figures is attributed to the in- crease in the price of labor and materials since the time, some months ago, when the estimated cost was made. thought the board will accept the lowest bid or modify the plans in order to bring the cost down to $125,000.
