BANK CASHIERS TO
TELL THEIR STORIES.
—
I Little Rock, June 20.—One o!
the features of the boodle inves
tigation now going on in the
Pulaski grand jury is the num
ber of bank cashiers who are
being called in as witnesses. Ir
the absence of any knowledge oi
their testimony, the presumptior
is not an unnatural one that they
are being called upon to testify
as to the bank accounts of mem
bers. For instance, if a membei
of either house should borrow
$60 at the beginning of the ses
sion to pay his expenses to Little
Rock, and upon returning shoulc
pay back that amount and de
posit in some bank the sum o:
$4,000, the grand jury migh
consider that an unusual bit o:
finnndprino- W b P t. b P r Slid
i things have been done is not nov
| known, but may come out in th<
! trials next week.
| The latest banker to be sum
moned before the inquisitors is
J. 0. Ragan, cashier of the Ban!
of Lamar, at Lamar, Johnsoi
county. *
