Following 1856 he spent four years learning the brass inishers trade in this city and when the Civil war broke out he entered the employ of the Colt Manufactur- ing company, making pistols for the use of the Northern troops. A year and a half later he decided to enlist and was enrolled in Co. C, 20th Con- necticut Volunteers, infantry. After an,_active service of seven months he went to New York city and resumed making rifies for the government. He ater became overseer in a woolen mill in Clifton Glenn, N.

Stevenson, From the alarming water situation which faced this city in the ‘middle of December 1910, Norwich will today reach the opposite end of the scale and by nightfall can be reposing in the consciousness that both its reservoirs are full to the brim and running over. The heavy rain of Wednesday was the last punch needed to give Fairview reservoir its filnal supply to send the water piling up close to the “full pond” mark and when Superintendent J. J. Corkery took the measurements on Thursday he found that from 3 to 5 inches more would send the water to full pond and send some flowing over the spillway At the present rate of gain Fairview can be expected to fill to the brim some time this after- noon. For the first time then in its history the city will lLave two reservoirs full and running over while the auxiliary Meadow Brook pond is delivering a magnificent stream into Fairview. There is 58 inches of water in Meadow Brook over the 24-inch pipe into Fair- view and Superintendent Corkery said Thursday night that there was enough water in Meadow Brook to keep water running over Fairview reservoir spill- way for a month U The rainfall Wednesday was 1.29, making a total of 511 for the month. With both Stony Brook reservoir z Fairview full the city now has a wa- ter supply behind it of $38 million gal- lons, besides what is contained in Meadow Brook and will eventually be deliverea into Fairview. Of the total mentioned 450 million gallons is in Fairview reservoir and 388 million gal- lons is in Stony Brook reservoir, the newly created water supply for the city, which has filled since the gates were closed last December. According to the water department records Fairview reservoir was last at full pond from May 20, 1908 to June 1, 1908. On Dec. 13, 1910 it was at { 358 inches down from full pond, whicn meant practically empty, while the city supply was being pumped in€o the mains from the park in Mohegan lake. At the same time, all speed was being made in laying the pipe line to pump from Trading Cove brook. This when completed furnished the city’s supply until Fairview haq gradually filled again to a point where it could be used. Meanwhile plans for the construction of Stony Brook reservoir were in prep- aration. With the present conditions the wa- ter supply for Norwich is certain for vears to come.

At the First National bank, National Bank Examiner N. S. Bean of Man- chester, N. H., wak at work with his assistant, J. McKean. Thursday evening Mr. Bean sald that he was not in a position to make any state- ment about the bank’s affairs, but that he was proceeding as fast as pos- sible to make up a report which would be forwarded to the comptroller at Washington. He was desirous of hav- ing all depositors bring in their pass- books to be written up as that would greatly facilitate making up his re- port. President Franklin S. Jerome of the bank arrived during Thursday evening from New York and spent part of the evening at the bank. When asked if he had any statemeni to make, he said that there wag nothing he cared to sa on the situation at present. At the Thames Loan and Trust company the doors were opened this morning and thos~ desiring to settle loans or make payments of interest to do so, but as far as s was concerned there was none. No bank deposits of the commercial or savings depart- ments were received or was any money paid out. At the bank Officer John Donovan, a supernumerary policeman. occupied a position inside the door to maintain order. but there was no disturbance. Customers and others who wished to enter the bank did so and any ques- tions asked were answered by the bank officials. Bank Commissioner . P. Holt work- ed on an inventory of the assets and stated after this had been completed that he was thoroughly satisfied the depositors would receive every dollar of their money. Allowing for scaling of assets caused by having to dispose of ‘some securities at market value. ather than book value, it showed am- ple protection for the depositors. Th restraining order was obtained in orde; to conserve the interests of all. Since | the state banking department had been established, he said that no trust com- pany which had got into difficulties | had failed to pay its depositors in full. The first move of the bank examiners will be to secure an exact statement of the bank’s liabilities and assets at the present time. As soon as this obtained the examiners will supervise the conversion of the assets into cash, and it is probable that, when the re- straining order expires, a new order will be asked to permit the paving of were alloweq a banking busine: the depositors in as large ®mount as > at the time, and resume bu The company holds a little New k, New Haven and Hariford Rail- road company stock, which, at the ent time, is depreciated in value, Yor % and some of its other assets, quoted at $95,000 would not bring anywhere near that amount in the open market. Al- lowing for this depreciation, however, enouglh Mr. Holt says there are still assels to pay the depositors in full. Regarding the stockholders, Mr. Holf was not S0 optimistic, but he said that the company probably would be able to keep its charter, through a reor- | ganization. | Regarding the security for savings depositors In the trust company, State Zank Commissioner Norris S. Lippitt stated during the day that the sav- were secured by spe- under provisions of the law of 1907, which required sav- departments of trust companies take same precautions as savinzs banks in protecting their depositor: The law passed at that time required all_trust companies with eavings de- partments to invest in state legals as they are termed, that is to say secur ties that the state officials approve of, and nothing eclse. These depositors skould feel no uneasiness, he said, and | he could not see why every one of the savings depositors should not receive cvery cent of their deposits. The trust companies were given five vears at the ‘ime of the passage of the law in 1907 {0 change their securities over to state Jegals. One-fifth of their eecuriti was changed over each year, and October last year each trust company had to show all state legal securitie: In_the commercial department the Thames Loan and Trust company the depositors are secured by the cap- ital. surplus and undivided profit which amount to $100,000 capital stoc 50,000 surplus and '$56,987.59 unal vided profits. less current expenses.! ings depositor cial investments £ L and taxes paid. Tge general deposits in this departmenf amount to $522 092.01. The restraining order will remain in | force until the bank finds itself in shape to reopen, which may not be for | &cme time. No plans for reopening have been discussed as vet and It is | Frobable that a meeting of the trustees | will not be led until next week. Five days are legally required to call a meeting unless all waive the legality of the matter. Treasurer Robert W, | Perkins is in will continue GOVERNMENT COMES TO FISHERMEN'S AID.
