WASHINGTON, July cit has been
suspected for several that John Sherman

Co., solemnly declared, in his report on
the assets of the bank when it failed
that, according to his Information Sher-
man was the rightful owner OF two hun-
dred shares of stock; that Sherman mere
ly denied he was stockholder within
the meaning of the law, aud Was never
direc ly paid dividend upon the two
hundred shares. Stanton's report is On

tion has caused much comment in Official
and banking ireles to-day, aud has reyl-

with them. He adds, "if had the power
l would drive every one from the Brandy
wine, and either return to the old order
of things, or put in it those of some other
species tnat would be less agprrsshive on
the native fish, and more willing to be
hooked"
