officers of the National Gold Bank
and Trust Co. hope to be able to de-
clare a third dividend of 25 per

month. There has been some una

assets. After the payment Of the
next dividend, it will be determined
whether the bank will wind up at
fairs or resume business. There is a
strong feeling among the stockhold-
ers in favor of the latter course.
