Judge J. S. West in Mound City rules that section 16 of the 1901 banking law, making bankers liable for handling deposits when insolvent, is unconstitutional. The decision frees bankers Robert Sessman and Joseph Kibard, who were indicted under the 1891 law, from the charge. The ruling hinges on constitutional amendments and the repeal provisions affecting penalties.
