FINANCIAL MATTERS.
Disqnietude at the state of Affairs in
Massachusetts.
THE PROPOSED BANK LAW.

NEW YORK, March 10. The Posts financ al
says considerable anxiety here in bank cir
Giles, at the condition of things in Massachusetts.
In quiet way there is steady liquidation going
on there, especially in savings banks, and this is
the secret OF the movement of banks to secure
what must be called "stay law"
We are told that of the 10 odd savings banks
in the State, 100 odd are in favor of such q law
the practical working of which would create
power which could step IN between depositors and
their debtors.
OF the $3.50 000, 900 deposits in savings banks in
Massachusetts, about Sl30 900 900 are Invested in
real estate mortgages, the payment of which can
not be forced, and which cannot be sold to
make the security available in an early return for
creditors of banks. They also hold large line Of
United States bonds and railroad mortgages.
Nothing, however, can justify such a law as is
proposed
II the banks are permitted by law to pay only
such part of the r debts they easily do, why
should not merchants, or what ID more 10 the
point, the deposiiors of those banks, also be prv
legged 10 respect of their debts Several OF our
markets here are more than indirectly concerned
in the turn that affairs take IN Massachusetts.

THE ANDERSON CASE.
Gov. Nichols Apparently Well Pleased
with the Result.

NEW YORK, March 10. A New Orleans special
says Gov. Nichols last evening declined express
ing opinion on the release of Anderson, but ev
identity was well pleased with the action of the
court.
1t Is believed Attorney General Ogden, who was
at first believed satisfied with the decision OF the
court, now feels aggrieyed, and will push mo-
ton to reopen the case.
The same despatch says it may be stated au-
thoritslively that the Wells will be opened
soon possible, and every effort will be made to
push it.
1t is thought there is 4 much stronger case
against Wells than against Anderson, and there
are far greater chances Of his being punished.
Both Wells and Anderson have powerful friends
in the State, however, outside of the republican
party, and the decision Of the Supreme Court will
have the effect to increase their etferts in their be-
half
There is more hopeful feeling among republ
cans, and they are beginning TO believe Nichols
and the Supreme Court intend to see justice done
them in all matters, and they begin to express
more interest in the future Of the State.
