TRUSTEES OF SAVINGS BANKS.
The Right Of the Same Parties To BE
Trustees OF More Than One Savings
Rank ut tho Same Time.

The Right of the Same Parties To BE
Trustees OF More Than One Savings
Bank ut the same Time.
suit has been brought by the State Attorney
General, in the supreme Court, to enforce the law
passed in 1870 by the Legislature prohibiting
tees of savings banks from acting as trustees of
otner savings banks directors of banks OF circu-
lation and deposit. The action was in the name
OF william Floyd ct AL trustees of the Me-
chanics and Traders Savings Bank vs..
Robert McMurray, trustee of the Peoples Savings
Bank; Charles Peck, Of Peoples Bank, and
also the Central Savings Bank; J. Rosenberg, Har-
lem Savings Bank; Thomas woodward. Chatham
Savings Bank, and A. 7. Conkling, Eighth National
Bank, all trustees Of the Mechanics and Traders
Savings Bank. Some time since an order was OBJ
tanned to show cause why the parties named
should not be enjoined from acting as trustees Of
the Mechanics and Traders Savings Bank. This
order came up for argument yesterday before
Judge Daniels holding supreme Court, Chambers.
EX-Judge DAVIS claimed that, by the charter Of
se e law as to savings BANKS the trustees Of
this savings institution are prohibited from being
officers OF other banks, and that McMurray Peck
have violated this law by becoming officers Of the
Peoples Savings Bank, and Peck Of the Central Saw
ings Bank; Rosenberg by becoming connected
with the harlem Savings Bank, Woodward with
the Chatham National Bank and Conkng with the
Eighth National Bank. He read affidavits showing,
as claimed that the defendants were acting in vio-
Mr. Abraham r. Lawrence, on the part OF defend
ants read their afidavit. Thomas Woodward, Jr.,
states that he was appointed trustee OF the
Mechanics and Traders Bank by the Act OF Incor-
poration, 1852. He was elected director OF the
chatham Savings Bank, but did not act, and Is not
now a trustee. Robert McMurray has not been
Interested in any other bank for three years;
Alfred T. Conkng, President OF the Mechanics
Rank was elected director OF the Eighth National
Bank, January, 1871, without hts knowledge; at
tended but one meeting, and sent In his resigna-
ton A similar afldavit from Mr.. Peck was
read. He insisted that eight DAYS notice
was required before the application could be
entertained; that this being IN the nature OF quo
,ra,r1ntO to determine whether the defendants
were lawfully in office, preliminary Injunction
should not issue, before trial; that II would be
Unfair to the parties to confirm Judge Davis pre-
iiminary injunction on mere afidavits and with
thirty-six hours notice That the defendants
to the other banks by the legislature; that each
OF the DEFENDANTS, by resignfng his position in
another bank was renstated In the Mechanics I;
and finally that the act OF 1870 only contempates
the removal Of trustees acting Ia violation Of Ian.

THE HOBoKEN POST OFFICE.

For so me time past the citizens OF Hopoken have
been agitating the necessity of letter carriers in
their city. The law requires that city possess q
population Of more than twenty thousand to en-
title 1t to letter carriers, and Hoboken
has more than this requisite number. AT
present voluntary carriers deliver letters and
newspapers at two cents eacn, but persons can
obtain their letters free Of such charge by calling
state this because 1t has been industriously ru-
mored by pothouse politicians that the Postmaster
charges for delivering letters. ON the contrary,
he has frequently inconvenienced himself for the
benent OF many citizens and he Is now endeavor-
ing to obtain regular government carriers to meet
the Increased necessities Of Hopoken,

THE NEW FAILURES.
FISK 4 HATCH,

The failures yesterday, with two exceptions. were
confined to dealers on the New-York Stock tx
change. Fisk d Hatch have been associated with
Law Cooke g. Co., in the popular mind, IN strength
and integrity, since the breaking out Of the war.
Originally clerks with prominent banking firm,
thew embarked in safe and lucrative banking
bnsiness on comparatively small scale. Their
business and operations increased rapidly. and when
the Government made application for loans the
house was favored with large orders, which
they executed we'll In the well-known 7-3O aud
$40 loans they were very prominent and shared the
honors and the profits of the negotiations with Jay
Cooke g. Co. Still later. they identified with
the oonstruction and development of the powerful
Central Pacific Railroad and subsequently, with the
Cbesapeake and Ohio Railroad This road, il is be-
6eved was the cause Of their failure. IL promised
very favorably. and when Fisk a Hatch became Ito
fiscal agents its credit and Success were believed 10
he assured beyond peradventure. The stringency IN
the money marke and the dstrus of new enterprises
made il difficult 10 negotiate the bonds, and the
firm found themselves unable 10 obtain the advances
which they had made to the Company. The failure
Of Jaw Cooke a. Co. precipitated crisis which they
were unable to meet and the result their sus
pension. Fisk a. Hatch have national reputation
for honor and liberality. When il WAS announced
that they had failed, there was general expression
Of regret and sympathy

JAY COOKE Co.
member of the firm gave a statement, this morn
ing. of the cause of the suspension, which was
simply repetition of the explanation MADE
by the New-York house on Wednesday. Inc
same member declared the rumor that the hrm
had been specializing in gold foolish and ab-
surd. they dealt in gold otherwise than as
merchant speculates in 6our-on commission. Inc
firm received dispatch from London this morning
declaring that the London house is solvent and that
the feeling toward it in that city is very friendly
A brief run made this morning on the Fidelity
Safe Deposit and Trust Company but when 1t was
found the concern was able to meet all demands
upon it, confidence was restored, and some heavy
depositors returned their money. A run was also
made upon the Union Banking Company with a
similar result
Several firms have suspended to-day among which
the most prominent are L. W. Clarke & Co.. De
Haven & Brother, and Gilbough, Bond 81 Brother.
The smaller houses are George H. North, j. p. & H.
f. Yerkes, Charles p. Bayard, John p Lloyd Henry
II. Douglass, II. H. Bull, T. c. knight, and Henry L.

The panic has been confined almost wholly to the
street, with the exception of the two banking houses
mentioned above. All of the banks are perfectly
sound, andn no run on them is expected. Tonight

Thursdays panic was followed by another
financial crisis which eliminated In wall Street
yesterday. The first great sensation OF the
day was the suspension of the well-knoWn
banking and exchange firm of Fisk d Hatch
This house had been early and honorably
identified with the negotiation of Govern
ment securities and bonds of the Central
Pacific Railroad of California and the
Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad. Heavy
advances to the lqst-named road are under
stood to have OccasiOned much embarrassment
to the house and the peremptory demands OF
customers fastened the necessity OF suspen-
sion. Later came the failure of nineteen
brokers' firms, of more or less note, some OF
which are old and heavy houses. These fail
ures are generally owing to the fact that
the brokers involved were carrying at
high prices large amounts of stocks
which had been suddenly depressed IN
value. The suspension of Richard Schell
on Thursday, caused continued run
on the Union Trust Company, of which in
stitution he is Wee President. The Company
met all demands up to the close of business.
The Fourth National Bank fell under sus-
picion on account of Its supposed close con-
nection with the firm of Geo. Opdyke & Co.;
this firm has been involved with the affairs
of the New York and OswegO Midland Rail-
road, now in the hands of receiver. Details
of these leading events of the day are herewith
printed.

vERNAM a HOY.
Vernam & Hoy gave way late in the day MI
Vernam said that the cause of their suspension was
call of loans on the firm which they had not ready
money enough TO meet. TIE loans, he SAID, were all
secured by safe margins, and he thought the mousse
would recover from its embarrassment and resume
WIuTTEMORE 4 ANDERSON.
Whittemore & Anderson gave the usual reason
for their suspension; they were long of stocks
which suddenly tumbled, and their customers
failed to send remittances to keep the margins good

Jacob Little & Co., although comparatively small
dealers were generally considered good. The head
Of the firm is the nephew of the great Jacob Little

of the suspension was a superabundance of stocks.
