Stensland Confesses to Bank Crash Fallout in Chicago

Paul Stensland, in a confession to Assistant States Attorney Olson, admits taking blame for the Milwaukee Avenue bank failure while naming cashier Hering as the forger who took most of the money. He exonerates his son Theodore and bank directors, says his own annual take never exceeded $8,000, and that he invested proceeds in real estate. He discusses plans to flee, surrendering a $25,000 life policy and receiving $8,000 from the sale of cooperative store property to Northwestern Life Insurance Company. He reveals a $1,400 monthly mount from the Mount Olive Camel Association and denies stealing from others, asserting his liability to the bank is under $300,000. He recounts learning the bank’s losses could reach $2,000,000 and claims he never intended to steal. He acknowledges going into debt since 1580 and that his notes led to forgery schemes suggested by Hering.
