Mr. Mallon charges that Ellis allowed the bank to run on under the de- | ficiency until the next September, and thus gavo the du rs time to potily their friends to withdraw their deposits and save their money from the loss that soon overtook the less favored depositors, THE EXAMINATION. Atthe oxamination were present the members of the Senate committee, Senator Coleman presiding, Bank Superintendent Ellis; bis counsel, Mr. Coapinan; Mr. Malion and his counsel. Mr. Dwight H. Oimstead. Bernard Gorman deposed that on March 24, 1815, he déposited $100 in the bank, and on Soptember 10 an- other $100, This was'to show that the Bank Superm- tendent uliowed the bank to continue doing business alter it Was pronounced insolvent.

In March, 1875, witness found aueficicacy of $219,000; also found a boud of the trustees tur $115,000, noid by the Bauking Department, which he countod as assets; the bond was maJe to cover ustormer deficioncy prior to Mr. Ellis’ appointment to office, Mr, Oimstead asked how witness ascertained the value of the real estate, Mr. Chapman objected. Mr, Olmsteaa said ho proposed to show that the real estate had ocen put at nearly half a milhon more than it was worth, making the deficiency over $430,000. Mr. Chapm«n admitied the deficiency of $291,0U0, ard that Mr, Ellis had not reported it for flve months. ‘The reasun why, he said, would be given when the timecame. The question re- garding the value of the real estato was ilnaliy de- Mr. Reid said that he ascertainod its value by tnking the statements of the oillcers of the bank; he had also made some incidental inquiries; he did not think the market value of the property of the bank was {ts true value to the bank. Mr. Olm- stead usked the witness:—‘Did you consider at that tme that the bank Was solvent or insolvent?” Mr. Roid auswered that at the time of the cxamination the bank was insolvent. Mit. Olmstead asked if he knew any reason why the bank should not be closed up. Mr, Chapman objected, and the question was ruled out, On cross-exumination witness said that he bad been appeinted bask examiner under Mr. Howland, and during bis service be had not estimated any in- crease on (he real estate of the bank except for tho honses in Forty-sixth street. Witness had heard that on the beoks of the bank $100,000 had been added to the cost of the bank building, 80 a8 to make the assets | appear larger by so much abu to cover up a deficiency ; this had been done yeurs ago, before Mr. Ellis was appointed Superintendent, RECKIVER HURD BXAMINED, Mr. Samuel H.

A WEAK SAVINGS BANK. THE KINGSTON (R. L) BANK COMPELLED TO SUSPEND PAXYMENT—A RELIC OF THE SPRAGUE FAILURE. Newrort, May 14, 1877. Another vank is-in trouble. This time it is tho Kingston (R. 1.) Savings Bank, and for a week or more reports havo been circulated of its shaky cou- dition, It seems that the bank met with several Sevore losses a (ew years ago, the principal ones being caused by the well known failure of the house of A. & W. Sprague, and it also lost heavily on Northern Pacilic Ratiroad loans. fhe interest on the Sprague paper has been paid up to July last, Since that time, however, owing to the great depression in manufactur. img circles, the mills of Messrs. A, & W. Sprague were obliged to stop running, consequently the trusice of the estate has been unable to meet the mortguges and other paper when due. This, tho bank officials claim, stifled to having examined the | together with the general depression of real estate, is the cause of the present crippled condition of the bank, The sews of the conuition of the bank caused | quite a number of depositors to apply tur their de- posita, They were paid in fall, but the Bourd of Directors coucluded that if money was to be paid out all the depositors snould share alike, and so a meeting was beld and it was determined ty stop. pay- ments in the future A meeting has been | cailed of the depositors, to be held May 23, At which time the matter of resuming business or put- Ung the bank imto the hands of a receiver wili come | up tor covsideratiou. fhe directors claim that the actual Joss of the depositors, as matters now stand, will be ove year’s interest aud about eight per cent of the deposits. It their calculations are correct the con- dition of the institution fs not as bud as was goneraliy | supposed. This makes no lese than four savings bauks have severeiy suffered by the failure of tne ‘Spr The Kingston Bank was considered one of the best im the western section of the State, and it is hoped that it will come out of its present disicaities Without any serious loss to 118 deporitors, who are inostiy farmers.
