Description

Newspapers report the Tioga National Bank was closed by the Comptroller (order dated Oct 14, 1898) after discovery of a large defalcation by assistant cashier Eli W. Stone (who died shortly thereafter). The bank was permitted to resume business Nov 17, 1898. There is a location inconsistency in the articles: many articles refer to Owego, N.Y. (Tioga County), while the provided bank info lists Oswego, N.Y. I flag bank_name_unsure=true because of this place-name discrepancy. No articles describe depositor runs; the suspension was a government-ordered closure following embezzlement/defalcation, followed by reopening.

STONE ALONE GUILTY. Cashier Platt and Other Officers Not Implicated. WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-Comptro.ler of the Currency Dawes late yesterday afternoon telegraphed the cashier of the Tioga National bank of Owego, N. Y., directing him to close the doors of the bank, to receive no more deposits and transact no more business and informing him that he had placed National Bank Examiner C. E. Van Brecklin in charge of the bank. This action was taken as the result of a report made to the comptroller by Mr. Van Brecklin giving the result of a special examination he had made into the affairs of the bank, which had resulted in the discovery of a large defalcation on the part of the assistant cashier, Eli W. Stone. Mr. Van Brecklin said that he and the vice president of the bank had called on Mr. Stone Tuesday night. Mr. Stone was ill and in bed at the time. Mr. Van Brecklin told him that his examination showed that there had been a defalcation, and Mr. Stone confessed that he had been taking money belonging to the bank for many years. Early the next morning Mr. Stone died. Mr. Van Brecklin said that from as careful examination of the books of the bank as he had been able to make he had been unable to find any evidence whatever showing that either the cashier, F. E. Platt, or any other officials of the bank were implicated in any way in the irregularities. He said that the defalcation had occurred through the manipulation of the individual deposit ledger by the assistant cashier while acting as receiving teller. Mr. Van Brecklin had not been able in the length of time at his disposal for the first examination to determine the exact amount of the defalcation. In order, however, to fully protect all interests Comptroller Dawes telegraphed the cashier yesterday afternoon to close the bank and sent Mr. Van Breeklin back to Owego at once to take charge of the bank. Mr. Van Brecklin will make a detailed report of the condition of the bank as soon as possible, and the comptroller will then decide whether it shall be allowed to resume business or whether its strength has been so impaired by the defalcation as to make its permanent suspension necessary.
