On leaving the bank the reporter proceeded to the
Office OF william Qu1ntard, the President and he In
every particular corroborated the statement OF the
secretary denying with him that any run mad taken
place. He says run would be hrst rate thing
who would lose their interest ON deposits by such

Wo can do that then there need he no fears but We
are ali square In our accounts. We have g0t nothing

seems To be an insane idea prevalent tnat all savings
banks are necessarily controlled by Tammany.
