THE PANIC AMONG THE BOSTON
SAVINGS BANKS.
The Excitement at the Five Cent save
ings Bank.
TIE PROBABLE CAUSE OF TIE UNEAS-
MESS.

BosToN, March l6 The panic among Savings
Bank depositors continued to-day, and the crowd
in front of the Five Cent Savings Bank wa, even
greater than yesterday. At this bank 80 900 was
paid out Yesterday, and about rs much more to-
day. 1t has about 1900 depostors, and the small
proportion of this number around its doors are of
the laboriDg class, and deaf 10 all guarantees Of
the reliability OF the institution.
At the ProvideDt Savings Institution there was
a considerable number OF persons, mostly ladies,
watt ny to Withdraw their funds The bank paid
out yesterday about $4,000 and will probably
pay out an equal amount to-day.
The officers say that they think the run has been
caused by the passage of the bull relating to the
regulating of payments by Savings Banks by the
Commissioners, which it is feared will operate
against deposltors who may wish to withdraw.
AT the Suffolk there was no run, but there was
quite a lumber of Withdrawals, evidently intlu
enced BY the prevailing feeling Of unessiness in
the public mind.
AT meeting of the trustees of the FRANKLIN
Savings Bank, on BOylston ST., hello this nor ming,
it was voted to approve the action of the officers In
requiring 60 days notice. Everything was very
quiet at this bank.

Another Bank Robbery.
A LARGE AMOUNT OF PLUMBER
SECURED.
Cambridge, Massachusetts, Suffers the
Loss This Time.
A WOMAN PLAYS A PROMINENT PART
IN THE ROBBERY.
No Clue to the Robbers.

BOsTON, March l6. Cambridge was the scene
this afternoon. of one of the most successful rob
berries, and involving the largest amounts ever
pelpetIated within its limits. The facts are as
f,llows:
About two O'Clock Lewis Hall, President Of the
Lechmorc Nationsl Bank, corner Cambridge and
SecoLd streets, East Cambridge, was sitting alone
ia the palor of the bank the business of the day
was finished, but nothing yetha been done about
putting up books, arranging papers, or depositing
the money IN the vault. buggy containing
man and woman drove up to the Cambridge ST.
entrance, and the man entered the bank and re-
quested Hall to step to the door to see the lady,
who desired to I ausact some business. Mr.. Hall
walked to the sidewalk, the man accompanying
him, The lady said she desired to purchase
draft on Providence bank, and began in delib-
crate manner to count roll of money. Hall said
he could not wait while she counted the money,
and returning TO his room sat down to write. In
few minutes he heard the buggy drive hurTiedly
oil. Suddenly expecting something wrong, he
made a hurried examination and found that
small trunk which moment before had contained
three thousand dollars, had been riled of its con
tents. Further examination disclosed that two
trunks which were 10 the vault, the door of which
stood partly open, had been distracted. The
trunks contained government bonds and other
cnrlue, amounting to over S41 600, the property
Of different individuals, left in the custody Of Hall
for safe keeping
From facts since ascertained tits supposed the
job WAS done by four persons-three men and the
woman. II is thought two men were concealed
behind the door IN the hail Of the bank building,
when the President passed out, and though he
could not have been sbseDt more than two min
utes, they succeeded IN getting Oft with the plum
der.
The only clue yet obtained to the perpetrators,
Is description OF the man and woman who drove
Oft in the buggy.

The house concuIred in the report of the com
mittee OF the whole, striking out the enacting
clause of the southern mail contractors bill which
of course defeats the bill.
The was some d bate in explanation by a few
southern members, to the effect that they knew
nothing of the claims having been paid by vote
of the rebel congress.
Mr.. CoDger of Michigan said several here were
members of the rebel congress which passed
those claims. and he incorporated paper printed
at that time, showing that out Of eighteen claims
now passed before this congress by souheraers,
foul teen had been paid by the rebel congress.
The house went into committee again on private
CLAIMS and after an hour rose and reported sew
eral to the house, which were passed.
