The following official state went was mate: “As near as we can ascertain Mr. Red T 1 ™’* sh " r '"« 0 w ‘" sra finished our work, hut have gone far enough to say that the Gate City bank can pay the depositors every dollar it owe; them, and also pay its stockholders in full. Redwine must have taken fifty of the sixty-five thousand dollars within the last two days, and m ay have walked out of the bank with a roll of several thousand dollars. How the defalcation was made we have been unable to dis¬ cover, and the bank officials think it may have been carried on for years. Now about the bank’s condition, we wish to say that the surplus amounts to fifty thousand dollars and the undivided profits to thirteen thousand. This, with the bond for ten thousand, makes seventy-three thousand, or about ejgbt thousand over and above the defalcation. The bank is all right, and can pay every¬ thing it owes.” The way in wdiicb the defalcation was discovered is this: When Redwine knew that the bank examiner was in the city he borrowed, as he had the right thou¬ to do as a cashier, about twenty-five which sand dollars from the other banks, short¬ is often done. This covered the age up. The fact of his borrowing the money was mentioned in some way to President Hill. The investigations made by Mr. Hill led him to see that lledwine was short to a large amount. / REDWINE ESCAPES.' While the assistant cashier was work ing at hia desk Mr. Hill sent for him to come into his private off* e Redwine replied that He Ngrouldbe ir ’ her e in a moment, as soon run ning up a column of figures, When through with this work the young man, without his bat, stepped out into a back hall and went down stairs into the saloon underneath the bank. Un¬ der p re terse of going out upon the street for a few moments be borrowed from tbe bartender a hat, he made his way out of the saloon and disappeared in a most mysterious manner. Although the most diligent search has been made by the police ami detective department for him nothing hus been Heard of him since. The announcement that he was short in his accounts and had left the city to escape arrest fell like a thunder clap among his friends, for he has always borne the best of reputations and has been one of the shining lights attributed in the so¬ cial world. His dowi fall is to the fact that be aspired to be a leader in the social circles and lived beyond his means. It is said that. Redwine’s crooked ways began four of five years ago, but he fas managed by a skillfu! manipulation of the fu ds and figures in bis keeping, t > cover up his tracks. books The investigation <?f the bank’s showed Redwine’s defalcation to be about $65,000. The withdrawal from their cash supply of such a sum of money rendered the continuation of business impossible. The bank affairs will be closed up by an agent of tbe Unit'd States government, who will be appoint¬ ed by tlie comptroller of the currency, according to the national bank act. At 11 o’clock Wednesday night President Hill telegraphed Comptroller Hepl\, at Washington to t ike charge of the hank. This means that the business of the bank will be closed up at once. The deposit tors will receive their money as quickly as the assets of the bank can be lealized on. At 12 o’clock Wednesday night Pres¬ ident Hill gave out the following an nouncf ment: To tbe Public and Deporit.'rs with the Gate City National Bank—flics serious defalcation of our late assistant cashier, Mr. Louis Redwine, having so warranted d-pletod oar iu supply of cash, continue we do not feel attempting to btuine.a, but deem it for tie b -t interests of both depositor* and shareholders to closo our door* and ask the comptroller of the currency to take charge of the bank and it* affairs.
