SIEGEL BANK DEBT
Fund Raised, Both Men
May Plead Guilty and
Seek Clemency.
DEPOSITORS MAY
GET ALL, IN TIME
Friends Rally to Indicted Finan?
ciers-Whitman Has New
Conference.
Priende of Hoary Siegel ami Frank
F Vogel announced last night through
Levy Mayer, counsel for the Nelson
Morris interests, that they would pay
.ST,? K i.? i?m ? m the depositors in the
wrecked bank of Henry Siegel ft Co.
regardless of what District Attorney
Whitman may do
The announcement followed an Inti?
mation from the District Attorney's
office that both men had decided to
accept the offer made a month ago by
Mr. Whitman to plead guilty to one in?
dict m.-tit for felony and take a chance
for clemency from the court, as they
had made "such restitution as la: with?
in thelf power."
The $000,060 thus assured the dep? si
tors will give them about 85 cents on
the dollar, other assets may make the
amount finally realized 4?> per cent of
the whole.
While Mr. Mayer makes no further
promises, he is optimistic enough to
believe that eventually substantially
all, if not all. the money due the ? i. - -
poolton w ill be paid.
In tlds connection last nisbt he i ited
the case Of A. G. Becker, the Chicago
notebroker who handled so much O?
the Siepei paper and ?contributed
8100,000 toward the $1,O00lO0O used
to save the Chicago store of Sie?el.
|'?>..per ?v Co. from embarrassment
Old Bank Case Is Cited.
Twenty yean ago. Mr. Mayer said,
Becker was the proprietor of a private
bank in Chicago which failed, owing
several million dollars. His partner
drowned himself in Lake Michigan, and
Becker, when it was found that the law
on private banking. Identical with that
Of New York, had been violated, was
indicted. The bank paid -i> cents out of
its assets.
On the plea of friends th? Indictment
was duopped, and Becker not only paid
all the bank owed, but accumulated in?
terest as well.
Mr. Mayer thinks there is no reason
why as good results cannot be looked
for here.
Mr. Mayer admitted in a long state?
ment issued last night that he hoped,
and his principals wished, to have
Siegel ni' Vogel piven s chanco to
make good as was crante.) Becker.

Btanchfleld refused to discuss the ob?

Facts Reviewed by Mayer.
This opinion Mr. Mayer voice.I last
night when talking to a Tribune re?
porter. He did not come to New York
to make Statements, he said, but, find?
ing that the position of his ? lients WM
rot understood, be felt that he could
not do otherwisee than to tell ex.,
where they stood ind what they wished
to do. He began by reviewing the rais?
ing of Sl.fifiO.Oi'fi to save the Chicago
store. i
"Personally." said he. "I WOUM have
...efeired that the U.OJMN should tovs
been paid directly to the depositors In the
hank, hut It was derided it would he r. ? ?

property. That disposed of, the family
and friends of I-'rank K. Vogel and Henry
Siegel set about sTinK what else they
COUld do for the people who put then
money in the hank.
The families Of these m?n are now
ready to put up an additional IMMOt for
the benefit of the unfortunate depositors.
Everybody who Knows anything about
the failure knows that SieRel and Vogi I
are church-mouse poor.
"All the investigations and examination-"
to which they have bOM Subjected have
.i- o oastnted that tbey nave not ab?
stracted, secreted, stolen or tOniOSltlll I

fortunes as they did the rnone.v H of their
enditen Into this most unfortunate ?com?
mercial and flirincial catastrophe.
"Speaking particularly for the relatives
of Vogel who live In Chicago, they are de?
termined to do all in their power to help
the depositors K't hack the money which
theee poor, hungry and uafortuaate n^n,
women and Children need so sorely."
"How can this money be eooveyed to
the depOOiton?" was ask'd.
"We are extremely anxious that the
money may be distributed amona; the de?
positors without delay, court costs and
lawyers' sapaneca we are urging thai ?
it be possible Vogel ami MegCl ba gtVOU B

"We certainly have nothing but words

ing what socially and economically is ?or
the best interests of the unfed aid unclad

However generously disposed Siegel-?
filen.is nay fort toward the depositors m
ttie bank, they have no su? h kind feel?
ings for Mrs. Siegel. So far as they are
c icerned nothing will be forthcoming to
settle sny claims she may have or any

Making sire of your award In the Ben
Franklin Quiz is chiefly a matter of
system, after you've once nojuired the
knack .>f solving rhr- plctOgnpha
The margin for failure consists n.it so
much in that you will be entirely battled
by some Dictographs, as In ?that you
will ?-hoose )'OUr answer- without
thorough Investigation. It will not b?
that you are "stumped." but that v?.u
are eareless in the selection of >our
solutions
So your cue ;s to assure yon resit in
each instance that you have not ever? '
looked a single possible answer. Per- ]
haps v ou are proceeding along these
lines at preeent?at least, some entrants
are.

pr.ibable ones. He endeavors to narrow
the margin down to as few answers SS
possible, but at the same time he ?loes
not discard am which seem to him to
fit. In some c.isc.-- be is ab'? t.i CUt
down to one answer, and vit", he I
arrives at that answer he Is absolutely
sure of Its correctnoea in other cas? s
he has? remaining three, four sad some?
times niore answers. In the latter ?-ase?,
he says, he k.-?v~- tryl -, to eliminate:
