WHERE IS DAVIS’ BOND?

Iron Hall Circles Worried Over Its Disappearance and Substitution of Another. Iron Hall circles are exercised over what appears to be the mysterious disappearance of the bond of Supreme Cashier Davis, of Indianapolis, which was executed some months before the suit for receivership was filled. Local capitalists became his security and Davis deposited $50,000 to indemnify them against loss. The money proved to be Iron Hall funds, end for this reason was unsatisfaotorv. Some of the gentlemen were in favor of accepting the money anyhow, and this led to a disagreement, but those who favord it finally went on the bond. When the receiver began to look up the matter he was surprised to find that the bond had disappeared and another, it is charged, substituted for it. The latter was found to be worthless. When these conditions confronted the receiver he began to attach all personal property belonging to Davis, and every dollar that the latter was worth is now tied up.
