The Litigation Between the Receivers
Of the Guardian and Bowling Green
Savings Banks.
Before Judge Donohue.
Interminable ltigations seem destined to grow
out Of the failures OF those two notable Savings
banks-the Guardian Savings Bank, Of which VIII
liam M. Tweed was President, and the Bowling
Green Savings Bank, OF which the late Henry
Smith was President, and Of both Of which Walter
Roche was Vice President. Shortly after receivers
had appointed for each OF the different insti-
tutions-Mr. Shepherd Knapp being the receiver Of
the Bowling Green Savings Bank and jeremiah
Quinlan the receiver OF the Guardian savings
Bank-a controversy arose between the two as to
which was entitled to receive $4,000, a surplus
growing out OF some mortgage transanction in
which botn banks claimed an interest. To settle
the dispute Of the respective claimants the matter
election Of the latter as City Judge was continued
before Mr.. Scott: The investigation before both
tated the examination OF some 100 Witnesses A
report finally having been made by Mr.. Scott in
Guardian savings Bank, motion was made
yesterday by Mr.. James w. Gerard to
CONFIRM the report orr. After quite Lengthy discas.
case was adjourned f0r a fuller and final argument
till next Friday.
