Milwaukee Avenue Bank Fails Amid million Dollar Shortage
Chicago August 6 report states the Milwaukee Avenue State Bank faced a deficit near one million dollars leading to closure by Bank Examiner C C Jones. Deputy official Henry W Herring vanished amid embezzlement charges. J G Vinser of the Royal League died of heart failure during the crisis as crowds of depositors, mostly foreigners and women, pressed the doors. The shortage, estimated 750000 to 1000000, followed unsafe real estate and securities bets with insufficient collateral. Theodore Stensland and President Paul O Stensland, among others, aided investigations while the American Trust and Savings Bank acted as clearing agent.
