MORE TESTIMONY IN CARLISLE CASE (Continued from page six) 000, leaving an overdraft, counting the notes as authorized of $1,197.37. During 1908 checks were paid to the amount of over $4,000, and it was stated from the figures that exclud ing the two unauthorized notes, the indebtedness of Mr. Carlisle had in creased from the first of October, 1906, to the time of his resignation from the bank, by about $5,000. The amount of Mr. Carlisle's overdraft, beginning with 1907, and allowing the notes, considering them as authoriz ed, at the end of that year, was given at $436.86. During the afternoon session of the court, Mr. Smith was' interrogated concerning the account of the Cold Point Granite company, and it was stated that from the first of October, 1906, at which time the account was overdrawn, there was no period until the close of the account, when it -as not overdrawn. The overdraft at the beginning of the year 1908 was $3, 624.22, and at the end of this year, 6,771.32, making an increase of $3, 147.70 during this year, in overdrafts. At the begining of the year 1907, the overdraft was $4,147.25, but this was decreased during that year to $3, 624.22. It was also stated that the overdraft increased from $61.66 in July, 1905, to $6,771.32 at the close of the account, an increase of over $6,030. A number of other financial details of this company were brought out, as well as other financial condi tions of Mr. Carlisle's accounts. Among the statements made by Mr. Smith, was one to the effect that he could find no credit to the bank, of any of the amounts of money alleged to have been accepted by Mr. Car lisle for extension of credit to va rious parties, except one check, of Mr. J. J. Lane, which had been placed to the plantation account of Mr. Car lisle. It was stated, in regard to Mr. Car lisle's condition during 1907 and 1908, that he owned 184 shares of the bank stock in 1907, and 212 in 1908, practi cally all of which had been found to have been pledged as security for loans at other banking institutions. Mr. Smith had made up a list of the assests and liabilities of Mr. Carlisle during these years, and found that in' 1907 his assets were about thirty thousand, with liabilities of over forty thousand, in additon to $12,000, was to the na,tional bank, making a total of $52;000. The liabilities in that year ex:ceeded thr assets by about $22, 000. In 1908 the assets were given at $32,000, with total liabilities of over $61,000. In 1909, the assets were stat ed to be about $38,000, with liabilities of nearly $69,000. An examination of the books of the Cold Point Granite company, showed the accounts of the city of 'Florence, the McGee Concrete com pany, and the Southern Paving and Construction company, on whom drafts had been collected through the National bank, and which had been refused payment, were found closed on the books, showing that the Cold Point Granite company had received payment for the drafts. On the cross-examination, Mr. Dominick, after going over a few pre liminary matters, stated the first Scharge on the indictment, that of overdraft on his personal account, was on January 2, 1908, and made it clear that there were no charges in the indictment prior to that date, for this offense. The condition of Mr. Carlisle's account was taken up. It was stated that as shown by the ledg er the account was overdrawn on the 31st of December, 1907, $3,110.15. The amount of checks paid from the in-I dividual account during 1908 was giv en at $4,768. IThe amount of the deposits between December 31, 1907. and the same date in 1908, was stated to have been $4,321.48, aside from the notes given to cover overdraft. This rmade $446.73 more checked out than deposited during the year 1908, the period covered in the indictment. From January 10, 1905, to the end of the year, Mr. E. A. Carlisle was cashier of the banli, and it was shown that during his administration, the account was in better shaype than during any period following. The list of assets calculated by Mr. Smith was attacked in this cross-ex amination by Mr. Dominick, and it was revealed that the realty and per sonalty had been calculated from the tax books, counting these figures at 60 per cent. of the true value, and that the stock had been calculated at par, when they were really worth much more than this. Mr. Smith, however, stated that he would con sider Mr. Carlisle insolvent, from the caifeful investigation of his affairs that he had made. A reference to the books was made, and Mr. Smith was asked to find the indebtedness of Mr. Carlisle to the _.bank for every year since he had be come president. The first figures in' 1900, showed notes of $1,242.17 and From this figure the indebtedness was.found to have gradually incraas ed until in 1907, the overdrafts were at thp beginning of the year, $734.60 and nozes, $12,107.67. In 1908 the notes were $15,570.87, and overdrafts, $3,110.52. At the beginning of 1909, the notes were $18,248.35, with over drafts on individual account of $486.34 and plantation account of $210.14. Some attention was also given to the plantation account matters, and to the three drafts drawn by the Cold Point Granite company, for which funds had been collected from the bank, the unpaid drafts being held against the company. Court will convene this morning at 10 o'clock, and at that time, it is un derstood that both the prosecution and the defense have some further cross-examination for him. It is probable that whatever witnesses are put up by the defense will be begun very shor-ly after court convenes. Worse Than Bullets.
