Lditor of the Star: Sit:—Your issue of tast evening contained the report of “the committee of thirteen,” appointed by the (so-called) “meeting of the depositors of the Washington City Savings Bank.” I baye a word to say about this ‘meeting of dey ositors,” and it is that I am quite ignorant of the matter or the meeting, but that Iand a great many other depositors are interested in affairs of the Washington City Savings Bank. Interested we ate, Mr. Editor, but not represented in any ‘meeting of depositors” that bus yet taken place, because we know of no suc meeting. We say we are not represented in spite of the committee’s assertion that ‘all partieshaving any interest inthe Washington City Savings Bank were fully and faithfally represented.” The number of depositors is else- where stated tobe about two thousand, and I judge that nineteen hundred and fifty of them, ‘at least, know as little about this “committee,” or this ‘‘meeting of depositors” as Ido. When was this meeting? Where was it? Who were present at it, and how many were they, ali told? Did it include “the committee of thir- teen?” There has been no general “meeting of depositors” for the simple reason that such a meeting was impossible without previous notice given in the city papers, and no such notice was given. Ey what authority, then, does this ‘‘commit- tee Of thirteen” assume to act, and what busi- hess have they to pretend to represent ‘all parties baving any interest in the Washington City Savings Bank 2?” We hold that -‘all just powers derive their authority from the consent of the governed,” but we are governed, it seems, Without our consent being asked or given; governed by a ‘committee of thirteen,’ appointed in a mysterious way, at some obacure “meeting of depositors,” aud ‘afterwards clos- eted with the bank officers, who kindly claim that “ail parties having any interest, etc., are tully and faithfully represented.” It {s a proper sequel to this impudent claim, and a tit conclu- sion that the committee recommend ‘that no action be taken, and that the public meeting of the depositors adjourned to October 2 be post- poned, subject to the call of the committee of thirteen Gentlemen, this will not do. The Washington City Savings’ Bank is not yct @ close corpora- tion, and its he oer have some rights which committees and bank officers are bound to re- spect. They have a right to be heard in open meeting—after proper notice served in the usual way—the right to a voice and a vote in matters directly concerning them, and, above all, the right to appoint their own commutace and to say by whom they choose to be represented. It would be a waste of tine, therefore, to discuss the report of this committee, or to comment on the absurd proposition of Mr. Rutff’s friends (?) to “secure @ written pledge from the depositors that they will not take legal action against the bank to recover their money within one year,” agit, while Mr. Ruff lived and was capable of managing his atfairs, anybody dreamed of such action, or there could be any circumstances of the bank which would Pee it. As to making the 2,000 depositors «‘who did not draw out their fands”—being mostly sensible and intelligent peTeons, we suppose—enter into an agreement to tic up their hands, and not to trouble the bank for oné year—it is too much like the pro: osition of the fox who lost his tail, and who said to the other foxes, ‘go all and do likewise.” For our part we desire to see Mr. Ruff again in charge of the bank, and he may be assured of our forbearance and considerate sympathy in his misfortunes—confident as we are that he knows his own aftairs best, that he needs no help from a receiver, and no advice from any “committee of thirteen.” A Derositor. ——— Bins vor THe Fire-ALarm TececRapa.— But two bids were received by the Board of Public Works for the reconstruction and exten sion of the fire-alarm telegraph in the cities ot Washington and Georgetown, which were opened to-day—one for £75,000, which includes 100 automatic signal boxes of the most ap: proved form, to be located at such pointe as may be deemed desirable, and all sary apparatus and work to make a com- plete and perfect system.

The case was noted at the last trial, from the fact that a jury of lawyers tried it, and failed to agree. On the trial Charles Seales swore that he was porter atSeaton’s store at the time of the alleged robbery, and heard nothing said about it by the proprietor, and it is now claimed that he admits, or can be shown to have heard the fact from Seaton himself.
