NEWARK IN. J.), Nov. 2.-Shortly after
the last statement of the Newark Bank was
published, the popularity in it attracted
the attention of the officers of the Mechan-
les National Bank of New York. 1t had
been observed at once by the officers Of
other banks in Newark, who wondered at
the statement, but could not prove it false.
This popularity was the large amount due
from the reserves of the agents, nearly ST.
500. 900. The officers of the Correspondent
Bank-in New York, to which the Newark
Bank was then indebted about $500, 900,
sought an explanation Of this item from
its cashier. Baldwin's explanation was
that the money belonged to the Mutual
Benefit Life Insurance Company Of New
ark; that the bank was paying a low rate
Of interest on it, and was loaning it to two
New York banks at a considerably higher
rate. The transaction, according to Bald
win. was productive of a handsome profit
to his firm, which was therefore interested
in not disturbing the loans. There was
nothing in this to arouse suspicion, but
when the cashier, in reply to the natural
question, asked to be excused from naming
the two New York banks to which he had
lent the money, the officers Of the New
York bank became somewhat alarmed, and
determined to ascertain the correctness OF
his statement. They were not quick
enough, and the failure of the Newark
Bank came before they had learned that
the representations of Cashier Baldwin
were false. In preparing for the examine
ton of his bank, Baldwin made a last effort
to deceive the National Bank Examiners.
He called at the Mechanics National Bank
in New York, which had S444, 900 in pape
as collateral security for a loan of over
$500, 900 to the Newark Bank. The
absence of SO large a sum from its
bills receivable would be fatal to
his passing examination, especially wher
he says he was forced to represent still
larger sums as being due from its New
York Bank correspondents. Stepping into
the New York Bank he suggested that he
would like to exchange collateral securi
ties which the bank held. He wished, hi
said, to make a comparison of the paper
with his books. He was informed tina
none OF the notes would mature for a
ACaot Co ddy53 ALI bOult Oh LQelu NOT IOl
three months. He was reminded also tina
the books Of his bank must show plainl,
the record of the notes of which he had /
full list, but Baldwin was still anxious Il
make the exchange, and urged it on yari
GUS pretexts. 1t was not until after con
siderable conversation, however, that hi
revealed the fact that he had no securities
with him with which to make the ex
change. He remarked that he would
bring over the new collateral securities or
Monday, after having examined the former
ones. To this proposition the New Yorl
Bank was opposed most decidedly. Bald
win was ineensed at the refusal, and re
marked with considerable asperity, "I
the Mechanics National Bank Of Newarl
Is In so poor a strait as not to be allowed
such . simple transaction, I want to know
it, and it is time to know it, too" ut is no
business. Baldwin, and that you do know
replied President Sherman.
