It contends $8 300 92 reduction came from deducting bank debts from depositor dividends, not real funds. It also asserts $11 717 98 and $44 132 36 were not cash gains by the assignee and the loans with Lazard Freres and First National Bank Mobile show no such cash in hand.

Settlement of Leinkauf Bank case seeks trustee removal

Petition argues assignee mismanaged assets of Leinkauf Banking Company insolvent for five years. It claims $8 635 18 was recovered by banks from paper, not touching the trust, and alleges double entry for $2 plus $7 400 credit to the trustee. Credit for $750 on bond premiums is improper. An expert accountant would simplify the matter, and the petition asks for removing the trustee and possibly recovering misused funds.
