From the beginning of the trouble which culminated fn the suspension of the Third Avenue Savings Bank a tress has been felt by all the small savings institutions, others the Central Park Bank, at No, 774 Third ‘This institution, though never a very prosper- was regarded as solid, and the directors hoped, ervative management, to bring it up toa paying we hopes gave promise of fulfilment until Avenue Bank trouble began to scare deposi! m confidence. This lack of confidenc sn the partof the public soon engendered trouble in he management of the bank, and great difficulty was experienced in finding a man who would represent the wsvitubion as its president. A temporary president was found, and shortly aftcr he was necessitated to retain the place, ag bis resignation would not be acoopted, and the directors could not hotd anower election, Under this temporized management the institution floundered along untila few weeks sce, when Superintendent Ellis made an mvestigation of the affairs of the Central Park Bank and (ound the institution to be ina very shaky condi- ome vas one hen, A consultation was held with the officers of the wank Mr, Thomas Gearty, the President, induced Mr. Bibs to postpone definite action m the premises anu! the bank could move into ite new quarters, corner of Third avenue and For righth street, This Mr. Ellis refused to do unless ihe sum of $6,000 was added to the credit of the bank, the money to be held as security for the claims of depositors, Ofthia sum Mr. Gearty raised $5,000, and with this new capital the bank was started in its xew building. The condition of affairs spoken of as baving clamed the attention of Mr. Elliswas that the dank was bare of devosits, most of the money having been withdrawn, It was hoped that when the new quarters were entered business would be im- proved, ut depositors were not to be lured ty a high stoop and plate glass windows, and the complained of bare condition of the bank still con- iinued. Mr. riy promised to inform Mr. Ellis of the progress of the institution under the new condi- Mons, and on Friday last he told the Superimtendeut that basiness had not improved, and, all things con- ridered, hie thought it best to wind ap the concern, Dn receipt of this information Mr, Ellis again visited the bank, and after an examination concluded to take Wr. Gearty’s advice, To this end he informed the President that he would have a receiver appointed, and it is supposed that this functtonary will take his position this morning at ten o'clock WHAT THE PRESIDENT SAYS, In possession of these facts a Hxnany reporter called wo Mr. Gearty, the President, at his residence, on Lex- fogton avenue, last night, At first Mr. Gearty was in- fisposed to talk, but finally he gave the reporter all the formation in his possession. He recited the trials of the institution as told above, and added that he was flad that he had been able to induce Superintendent Ellis to allow the bank to move to its new quarters, as is it had simplified matters greatly. The building, with the lot on which it stands, belongs to the institu- tion and are unencumbered. It is a substantial struc- ture, and in a good market will enable the bank to sealize enough to pay dollar for dollar on the $40,000 how remaining to the credit of the depositors, From ihe statement of Mr. Gearty it is to be inferred that the pank died natural death—i ¢, the people drew out their moneys until what was left could not earn enough pay the hetp necessary to the proper working of | ‘he institution. THR WANK STATEMENT. on the houses across the narrow street, Making its | Grst appearance on the second floor of the building, ' the fire rapidly assumed possession of it. When the firemen began to work the flames met them at every point, They seemed to be everywhere and all power ful. They gulped the streams of water which were thrown to them and then sent them back into the faces of the firemen as a befogging and bewildering hot vapor, But that which they cast back so contemptu- ously was also powerful; and, ‘THE STEAM, GRADUALLY CLOSING AROUND the flames, helped to Suffocate them, It was long, however, before they were overcome, In the mean- time they played such impish pranks as would tead the by the chief of the subterranean or anti-cclestial fire brigade. They lcaped into the air and the faces of the firemen, clambered up the front of the house, toward the cornice, cracking and cleaving the brown stone as nd sending its particles in showers on the men below. Then they ran back Into the house and covered the rear party wall from first floor to roof with a mantle of fire. During all this time there were almost continuons detonations within the buruing building, some short and snappish, like the explosion of a pistol, others dull and heavy, followed by the expulsion through the third story windows of glussodies that looked like the necks of carboys. These were shivered upon the sidewalk, and therefore it could not be deiinitely ascer- tained what they were. Various ugitating romors, caused by these explosions, ran through the crowd. At one time it was said there was s powder magazine in the building; again, that an arsenal of LOADED GUNS AND PISTOLS was there; and also that there was contained in ita large quantity of explosive chemicals. That there was some active chemical agent in the building was proven by the orange hue of the smoke which. arose and hung over the building This sinoke had a peculiar tranetu- cent quality, which was one cause of several peculiar and beautiful serial effects, The sunlight passed through it first, from the Anu street side, and, striking the spray of the streams of water being thrown up from Nassau strcet, presented to the eye the most beautiful arrangement of the prismatic colors, Thore was at oue time three of these mimic rainbows. The firemen worked well; but, as has been said, they bad a hard task. It was dilflealt, indeed, to stay upon aladder, or near one, while firebrands, bottle necks and pieces of window glass were falling m showers; and while explosions were continually occurring which, for ali that could be learned, might be only the pre- cursors of a great outburst that would completely do molish the burning building, and involve the lives of men inthe general destruction. There was another circamstance which would have overawed any other men than New York firemen. On the third floor of the house was a printing office in which were a number of heavy presses which, it was thonght, might be pre- cipitated into the cellar, and, jn their descent, throw outward the walls of the building, Luck ily the presses kept their places, and none of the brave men who risked their lives to do their duty were injured seri- ously, Several were hurt slightly by the flying glass, and one sturdy young man, who kept his position on a ladder whlle the flames were scorching his face and the smoke was almost obscuring lim, had his hand severely cut, The fire was discovered on the third floor. The building was asix story brown stone front at No. 102 Nassau street, on the corner of Ann street, and extend- ing down the latter street over Nos, 36, 48 and 40. The alarin was given by the janitress of the building, Mrs. Johnson, who perceived the flame and smoke coming from the fourth floor, occupied by Mr, Normandan, clectroiyper and silver plater, aud Mr. Ernest Loekel, manufacturer of hand stamps, Before the steain fire engines received the alarm, which was given promptly by the police, Captain John L.

Mr. and Mrs. Barney Williams, long and deserved favorites, appear at Booth’s Theatre during the Christ- mas holiday week. Hans Von Balow plays to-night at Chickering Hall's Raff concerto and many other musical works, which cannot fail to excite interest. ‘The latest musical nows from the Centennial may be summed up in the following:—Musical directors, Messrs, P. 8, Gilmore and Theodore ‘Thomas, Carl Rosa seems to have struck the right chord in English opera across the water, His company 3s said to be the best ever presented before aw English au- dience, Mr. John J, Carolan gave a dramatic reading at Stein- way Hall last night’ He is an excellent reader, and evidently has made a study of the works he places be- fore the public. Herr Wachtel appears to-night as Raoul in “Die Huguenotten” for the last time at the Academy of Music. Mlle, Pappenheim appours as Leonora in “Fidelio” at the Saturday matinée. A grand concert was given at Liederkranz Hall on Thanksgiving Eve, at which the following soloists ap- peared:—Mr, Bersin, tenor; Mr, Balck, violoncelist, and Miss Hoffmann, soprano, The chorus and orches- tra were excellent. ARRIVAL OF THE CARDINAL, The Cunard steamship Abyssinia arrived at the Hook about twelve o’clock last night with His Emin- ence Cardinal McCloskey on board, after a passage from Queenstown of twelve days, The steamer anchored in Quarantine shortly afterward, Cardinal McCloskey was in good health and will reach the city this morning in time for breakfast with his friends. As announced in the Heratp, no formal re- ception will be tendered him, but it is’ understood he will receive the clergy of the diocese at the Cardinal- ate residence, in Madison avenue, during to-day. Much interest bas been feit in the coming of his Emi- nence, and his safe arrival will be greeted with pleasure by those who dreaded the ocean passage at this late season of the year. ANOTHER CE} NTENARIAN GONE, Information was received at the Coroners’ office pes- day of the deatn of Catnarine Donovan, at No. 479 Greenwich street, in the 104th year of her age. A Fleratp reporter was sent to the above address(to verify the fact of death at such an extreme age and to clicit any other items of interest, Arriving at a tumbie- down looking building on the corner of Canal and Greenwich street, a woman standing in the door was accosted and asked if she kuew of the death of Catha- | ¢ rine Donovan. “Yes, sir,” she replied, “I was with her just before | she breathed her last. corpse, side now.” . Following his good natured but loquacious guide up a dozen fights of winding stairs, which creaked and moaned at every step, the reporter found himself at last in @ wretched garret, poverty stricken in the extreme and telling too plainly the story of the strug- gies of its inmates with want, Ina little apartment just large enough to hold an humble cot and one or two wooden chairs Iay the inanimate form of the aged woman. Aserupulously clean white spread was over tho remains, her hands were crossed, and on a little stand near the head of the bed were some wax tapers ready to be lighted. Several friends were gathered in and around the doorway, sympathizing with the mar- ried daughter of the deceased. ‘The latter, when ques tioned, said that her name was Mrs, Hurly, and that she resided at the corner of Houston and Washington streets. Her mother came to this country about thir- teen years ago, and, although she had no means of telle ing, she thonght’ she must have been 120 years Come up and take a look at the stated that was she born in the county of Cork, Ireland, ch would make her only 103 years old, il, sir, o’im no scholiard meself, but I always thonght she was over 100 years owld when she came to this country.” Tke poor woman then told in simple, but graphic langnage, the following story:— “Mother lived here with my brother Dan, that’s Dan Donovan. For over three years she has laid on the bed where you see ber now, deaf and blind. To make her bear anything we would have wo put our mouths close to her ear and call as loud as we conid; but she had her senses to the last. Only the night before she died she said, ‘May God help my soul;’ for you see, sir, well rid of this life.

EVIDENCES OF SUCCESS IN PHILADELPHIA—THE YOUNG MEN'S MEETINGS—THE MORNING SERVICES DRAWING LARGER CROWDS. Puinapeurata, Nov. 25, 1875, ‘There can be no doubt but that the revival meetings are beginning to have an effect, LAST NIGHT'S MERTING. The crowd that assembled at the usual half-past seven o’clock services was 80 great that after 10,000 had been admitted and it was necessary to close the doors at least half as many more later comers sought admission as fruitiessly as the foolish virgins in the parable, The preacher was more than usually earnest, his passionate appeals were shouted at the top of a voice filled with emotion, and the indications of the sympathetic fervor of his audience were apparent, One woman was carried out shricking in hysterics, and altogether the meeting was more successfil in making an impression upon the attendants than any yet held here, if outward indica- tions are any criterion, THR YOUNG MEN’S MEETING. But the one fact that would seem to prove the good result was in what took place afterward. Before clos- ing the meeting Mr, Moody asked the young men in the audience to go to the Arch street Methodist church (De, Hatheid’s), at the corner of Broad street, a few rods from the meeting place. A young men’s prayer meeting was to be held there, he #aid, and he asked all young men who felt that they were ready or willing to unite for the cause of Christ, or who wanted to pray or be prayed for, to attena, A’ similar meeting bad been held the night before and the chapel of the church had been fall, but had been amply suilicient for the congre- gation; but last might the result of the announcement was surprising. Mr, Moody with his rude eloquence was not to be there, nor Mr. Sankey, with his sweet voice. There was to be no preaching; there was no eloquent speaker; no prominent clergyman or gifted layman; no feature of the meeting that could attract people—young men especially—from curiosity, Yot the response to the invitation was so general that by the time Mr. John Wanamaker was ready to open the services a crowd of young men had assembled such as would have filled the large chapel of the chureh a dozen times over. The main body of the building wag, therefore, thrown open, and the church, which is a very large one, was completely filled by a gathering of the better class of young men, all of them probably members of Protestant churches and of the Young Men’s Christian Association, The services consisted entirely of voluntary prayers and requests of individuals for prayers for themselves or in bebalf of thelr relatives or friends, EXCLUDING THE PRESS. Some of the persons interested in the revival mect- ings seem determined to make a close corporation of them, The press were again excluded from to-night’s services by the closing of ail the doors, including the private entrance supposed to be for the reporters, a full half hour before the time publicly announced.
