BANKER KOETTING, of Milwaukee, was found guilty Tuesday night of receiving deposits while knowing his bank to be insolvent. He was one of the oldest bankers in Milwaukee. For over twenty-five years he was cashier and manager of the South Side Savings Bank, in which he own:d a half interest. Before the failure of his bank July 22 last he had the respect and confidence of every one in Milwaukee who knew him and he had a wide circle of friends. Mr. Koetting is 51 years of age. He came with his parents from Ohio when 3 years of age. As one of the oldest settlers of the city he had frequently been urged for political honors, particularly Mayor and City Treasurer, but he always declined, and his only public service was for seven years in the School Board. Koetting’s trial lasted two weeks, and the evidence produced there has been a revelation to every one in Milwaukee, but more particularly to Koetting's warmest friends, who were for months loath to believe the rumors of the real condition of the bank until they were verified by evidence. The discrepancy in the bank’s account was shown to be over $1,000,000, due in part to Koe’ting’s speculations with the funds of r—————Reß ST RO TET WLy years hundreds of thousands of dollars of the bank’s funds were lost in bad loans.
