•New York, July 14.—George M. Valen-
tine, cashier of the Middlesex county
bank ot Perth Amboy, N. J-. which
closed today, has surrender himself, and
lb now In Jail owing to ashortage in the
bank's funds which has been variously es-
timated all the way up to $105,000. The
affair caused consternation and dismay
among tho business men of Perth Amboy
whero tho Middlesex county bank was
considered us strong as the eternal hills.
Bo panic stricken did the people of Perth
Amboy become when It was learned that
the M.fldlosex county bank had failed to
fepen for buslt.es.* us usual this morning
that crowds surrounded the l'erth Atn-
t oy pavings •institution. What made the
fun on tho savings bank appear all the
hiore Serious was tho fact that the offic-
er* of the Middlesex county bank and
Hfoe officers of the Perth Amboy savings
Institution are Identical, the business of
fcarc.e pounters. Though it became nece<-
mar;' to call for tho aid of the police for
the purpose of maintaining order, U. B.
Watson* tho president of both banks,
* sj-s that the fuuds of tho Perth Am bey
•tehvlngs Ihtltutlon were not touched, that
fciiC.OW deposited to the account of the
toavluga Institution Is absolutely *afe and
that no nuLttor how badly the Middlesex
toounty bank has been wrecked, tho sav-
ings bank will be able to meet all de-
mands tnude upon It. Those words of as-
surance from the officers had the effect of
checking the run on this bunk during the
afternoon.
Tho notice posted on the door of the
Middlesex county bunk early in ths
tnorn'ng wna us follows:
"Bank closed. In the hands of bank,
liig department."
On Monday lu«t Cashier George M.
Valentino evidently concluded that he
too longer could conceal the Bhortage at
the Middlesex county bank. On that
fcnornlng ho telephoned President Watson
"that ho was detained, but suid that he
•would appear nt noon. The bank then op-
filed for business and * Tr. Watson, who
"Was taking tho absdt... .ashler's placfe,
discovered thut there should have been
gome $7,t*00 in bills on hand to commence
Operations that morning. These he could
hot find In vault. Mr. Watson had been
searching for it when Valentine called
\ip, lie nskpd Valentine whero this mon-
ey whs told thut it had been placed In
the cashiers private drawer. Mr. Wat-
Sun reoiurked that that was no place for
It, but rnng off tho telephone and went
to get it. A duplicate key to the draw-
er indicated was obtained and the drawer
Opened, but no money could be found.
Mr. Robert N. Valentine, the cashier's
father, was summoned and he aided in
the search for the missing money..
It could not be found and Anally the
Work of checking was begun. Then it
soon became evident that during the last
few months the acoi^nts of the bank had
been Juggled. The other trustees wer«
summoned and the banking department
was notified to send an examiner. Depu-
ty commissioner of banking, Jonhson .ap-
peared in responsp. On Wednesday, Mrs
Valentine, wife of the cashier, returned
from Ocean Grove and called at tfie bank
nnd wanted to know where her husband
was. This was the first intimation that
•she had that e was not on duty and
showed officials that Valentine was not
at the sae shore, as at first appeared.
On Monday the Park National of New-
York charged the Middlesex county bank
with checks to the amoant of *4,000 which
are said to have been drawn on it against
tho acount of the Middlesex by Valen-
tine.
HOW HE DID IT.
A detailed Investigation of matters by
President Watson and Robert N. Valen-
tine showed that the cashier's chocks
and stubs did note orrepotid; that the
Shocks called for more money than the
■tubs recorded, and that while taking
tho stub as the basis af accounting, ihe
bank s finances would figure out all right
the checks would show that tho bank
had been drawing heavily on Its New
York correspondent ,the Park National
Tho cashier, in fact, caried the acounts
on the Btubs and from. them to the book
correctly, but when the returns from the
•cashier's checks came he pocketed the
d fference between the stub and the
cheek. Pour or five months of this meth-
od of financiering depleted tho

suit and reminded the con-
•• 'ij*.i l e -i vr.irs an
serve monies and brought li to the verge
of ruin. Then the cashier evidently secur-
ed a portion of the ready cash on hand
and left Perth Amboy.
Thursday night the determination to
close the bank was reached, and Mr Wat-
son notified chief of police Burton and
asked him to locate the missing cashier.
Valentine who had been In New York
City, returned to Perth Amboy from
Woodbridge, accompanied by his coun-
sel, Edward Savage, of Rah way. He de-
clined to go Into details of the short-
age of the bank, except that he was
very sorry that he got his friends Into
trouble and that he felt very bad about
his wife anj children.
President Watson Is of the opinion thai
the cashier's defalcation will amount to
at least $125,000. Where the money went
to is not known, as the cashier Is said
to have been moderate in his tastes and
habits of life.
The Middlesex county bank was operat-
ed under astate charter and had been In
operation many years.
Cashier Valentine was for many years a
clerk in the Park National bank of New
York In 1893 ho was made cashier of j ba~nk
the Middlesex county bank. His bond '
was fixed for $50,000. His relatives are
wealthy and It is said they will endeavor
to make good the shortage.

This at p w s p a tically forced upon the
bank by further heavy reductions In th-'
reserves o*f the New York bulks from 9."00,

only makes further gold shipment- from
