Banks and banking, \u00a7 200 \u2014when evidence sufficient to show identity of depositor. In an action to recover savings bank deposits made by a man named Powel G., where plaintiff\u2019s name was Paul G. and where plaintiff\u2019s identity with such depositor was disputed, evidence, including disputed signatures, examined and held sufficient to prove that plaintiff was the person who made the deposits in question.\n2. Trial, \u00a7 285 \u2014when case not argued on trial by court. A court trying a case without a jury is not required to listen to arguments of counsel.\n3. Costs, \u00a7 67 \u2014when statutory damages not allowed. On an appeal in an action to recover savings bank deposits made by plaintiff, held that plaintiff could not recover statutory damages.",

No. 21,193.\n(Not to be reported in full.)\nError to the Superior Court of Cook county; the Hon. Clarence N. Goodwin, Judge, presiding.\nHeard in this court at the March term, 1915.\nAffirmed.\nOpinion filed December 6, 1915.\nStatement of the Case.\nAction by Paul Gilis, also known as Powel Gilis, plaintiff, against H. Krulewich, defendant, in the Superior Court of Cook county, to recover money alleged to have been deposited by plaintiff in defendant\u2019s savings bank. It was not disputed that a man named Powel Gilis made deposits and is entitled to withdraw the same, and the question was as to his identity with plaintiff. To reverse a judgment for plaintiff for $237, defendant prosecutes this writ of error.\nPlaintiff has possession of the bank book issued to Powel Gilis, and testified that he received it when he opened his account with defendant; that he made the deposits and received the withdrawals entered in the book; that the signature on the identification card was made by him. Other witnesses testified that plaintiff is the man to whom this book was issued and who had an account with defendant. Defendant introduced testimony tending to show that the signature of plaintiff was not made by the man who signed the identification card when the account was opened.\nM. A. Milkewitch, for plaintiff in error.\nE. P. Bradchulis, for defendant in error; Anthony J. Schmidt, of counsel.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols. XI to XV, and Cumulative Quarterly, same topic and section number."
