bank commissioner", closed the bank, Hiatt's transactions with the bank's money amounted to $1,526,917.33, but he was able to put in enough good securities to reduce the shortage to the amount named in the indictment. The second count of this indictment charges that Hiatt embezzled that amount of money for "the use of C. L. Peck & Co., Herman Olsen, Martin Moehen, Thomas Reynolds and Jesse Vermillion." It will be shown that Jesse Vermillion, who is an esteemed citizen of Anderson and president of the Anderson Banking company, did not in any way benefit personally, but that his name was used by Hiatt, it is said, to cover up a transaction in Anderson real estate. The state asserts it will be shown in the trial of Hiatt that on September 26, 1921, Hiatt, as president of the Dickinson Trust Company, placed with the company $555,000 in securities of doubtful value, and took out in money and first class securities that amount of money. This 555,000 was made up of the following items: H. C. Stickney, iuu,uuo; w. j McAllister, $70,000: I W. Clay Jones. $60,000; Somerset i company. $20,000; Glass Block company, $75,000; Sundry Cotton Bills, $50,000. Neither the grand jury, the stockholders' committee nor the experts who prepared an auc of the books, could get any information concerning the Stickney, McAllister and the Jones deals. The books showed that paper representing $230,000 had been exchanged for money, and then taken out. The transactions involving them are still unknown. Peck Acted as Agent The investigation made, by the stocKnomers' committee and others show that one Clyde L. Peck, of Chicago acted as Hiatfs agent in many aeais even after Peck was inHiVtod by the federal grand jury at 'Chicago ior misuse or the United States mails. une J. vv.

This P'an'ation has been conveyed to Henry C . . r. , , . . C. Starr as trustee for the stnrkhnM. ers of the Dickinson Trust company by Peck. The Somerset plantation or. as it is known in the records, the Magnolia plantation, is in Madison parish, Louisiana, about 600 miles north of New Orleans. It consists of 14.700 jacres - Hiatt bought this plantation irom l nomas Keynolds, also of Greenville, Miss. There was a mortgage on the property for $300,000 in favor of the Planters' Bank at New Orleans, and Hiatt reduced that mort-at-jpage to $2.0,000. On Dec. 5, 1921, Hiatt gave C. L. Peck a check on the Dickinson Trust company, signed bv himself as president, for $6,000, and Peck indorsed this check to Reynold'. On Sept. 26. 1921, Hiatt, as president, gave tne uickinson Trust companv's i check to Reynolds for $20,000. On I Jy. 14. 1922, Hiatt gave Reynolds a cmck on the trust company as president for $25,000. and on March 1. 1922, Hiatt gave W. F. Johnson, as agent, a check of the Dickinson - Trust company for $10,300, and this check was indorsed to Thomas Reynolds. Somerset Plantation After various deals and trades. In (which the money of the Dickinson company is said to have figured became the owner of mf ouiut-rsei piamauon, dui owed Reynolds $55,000 when the deed was made to Hiatt. Hiatt then sold this plantation to Frederick Hollingsworth of Grand Rapids, Mich. Hollingsworth gave his note to Hiatt for $200,000, and Hiatt on Sept. 26, 1921. put the Hollingsworth note in the Dickinson Trust company, disguising it as the Somerset company, and took out money and- gilt edge securities. The Hollingsworth notes have never been paid. Through some oversight the deed from Hiatt to Hollingsworth was never legally recorded, and thus the title to the property remains in HiVSED IT SICE 1875 A. L. Stansberry, Belmount. W.

Brewer, on March 24, 1922, broughc suit in the county court at Clarksdals, Miss., against Hiatt, claiming $250,000 damages and breach of contract for h: ; failure to float the $400.000 bonds. Under this suit Brewer attached the Cook plantation and also $10,000 worth of personal property on the Nappanee plantation. It developed in the course of the legal proceedings that Hiatt had transferred the real estate of the Nappanee plantation to Brewer, but retained the personal property on the place. Hiatt when demand was made by the trustees for the stockholders of the Dickinson Trust company denied that he owned the personal property on the Nappanee plantation and said he had transferred it to Brewer. When confronted with the records, however, he transferred the personal property, valued at $10,000, to the trustees for the Dickinson Trust company. Although the records do not disclose it, the belief is that Hiatt traded certain Chicago real estate for the Nappanee plantation.
