Anxious Citizens Seek Full Bank Report in Bowman Wreck
The people of Hagerstown Indiana await Receiver Boekennier to publish a complete report on the Commercial Bank collapse caused by John Bowman who died by suicide. Rumors of an assistant looter persist but lack confirmation. Bowman's tangled private affairs include unbalanced accounts with stores and lodge bodies, and he allegedly kept funds for workers and societies without proper credits. The missing assets may be greater than first thought, with possible transfers to Cambridge tied to the case.

Rail rebates alleged in Harvester case linked to railroads
Chicago July 12 rebated sums alleged to have been paid by International Harvester to major railroads form the basis of a suit brought in the circuit court by Rodney W Swift. Swift, formerly head of the patent department, is now a defendant in a case accusing him and the firm of defrauding the company. The suit ties suspicions to Mrs Mary Barrett Swift and accuses the Harvester concerns of using rebates to suppress competition and create a monopoly. The complaint claims railroads received undisclosed rebates on freight and accuses defendants of multiyear schemes and endowment of religious or educational institutions to shield illicit activity.
