BUFFALO April 23-Bank Examiner Young, after showing the assets and liabilities of the First National bank in this city, which closed its doors April 14, says: From the forego- ing figures it will be seen that the capital stock, surplus fund and undivided earnings are lost and $352, ,953.21 besides Making fair allowance for losses of debts now consid- cred good and for the expense of liquidation, my estimate is that the creditors will receive 55 per cent" Young closes his report by characterizing the management of the bank by President Porter Lee as reckless He quotes loan to H J. Hale & Go. and says Two days before this bank was closed the firm borro we'd $190,0O0, although the firm at that time owed the bank in loans and overdrafts $250,0 thus increasing the total liabilities of the firm to $40, 900.
 The bank holds marketable collaterals for
 only about $1O,O0O of all this indebtedness
 and for the rest of it R. Porter Lee holds
 some deeds for partial interests in gold 1odes
 and shares in a gold mining company of Buff falo which he affects to believe are of great
 value, but as they are not quoted on the stock | list I have not counted them as contingent | assets. The other instances of reckless dis ] regard of the interests of depositors in mak- ing loans to irresponsible parties without l proper security, but on a small scale, might | be given. In making these or any other | loans Lee did not consult the directors and
 never called them together for any such pur pose, nor does it appear that any of the direc | tors at any time asked for or made an exam
 ination of the bank or it's loans.

CHICAGO, April 23.-John A. Will, of Shel- by, Richland county, O., this afternoon shot and instantly killed hotel waiter named Thomas Kelly, aged B. The deed was ap- parently unprovoked, although Will states that deceased insulted q and struck him in the street. Will is giant in size and had just returned from a prolonged visit to Colorado and showed that he had learned to be quick with his pistol. After the shooting the mur- derer walked cooIy away and was arrested 8 block from the scene. He attempted to draw his revolver on the policeman, but soon sur rendered and was locked up in the central sta tiOn

Fires in the Woods.

Several fires in the woods in the vicinity of North Haven and Branford yesterday caused considerable smoke and did considerable damage. Several were busy starting fires on East Rock yesterday and dancing around them, apparently in imitation of Indians on war dance, except that sundry utensils in the shape of tomahawks, etc, were wanting Their antics attracted the attention of sew eral boys of larger growth, who approached them secretly under cover of the underbrush and sweoped down upon them. The boys scattered in wild terror, leaving behind sun dry treasures in the shape of birch and sas- safras which they had harvested. The fires, after the departure of the young Indians, soon went out, doing no damage.

Yale vs. Providence.

The Yale nine were badly beaten by the Providence nine Saturday afternoon. In the first inning the Yales went all to pieces and gave their opponents four runs, mostly on errors In the fifth the Providence nine punched some heavy hits and secured four more runs The raw, cold wind and lively ground made sharp playing impossible. The game was especially marked by the fine play ing of the two catchers and of Radbourne, the Providence pitcher. Hubbard's playing compares very favorably with that of any catcher Yale has ever had.

More Than the Electric Needed,


 BOSTON, April 23.-The troubles in the American Electric Light company, of Massa- chusetts, are to be brought to head by the suit of William McMahon and other stock holders against Edward H. Golf, Cyrus Hal deman and the other managers of the compa- ny to test the legal standing of the new com pany recently organized under the laws of Maine to take the place of the Massachusetts company. It seems that these managers, after getting control of the Massachusetts company four months ago, sold the stock for $l0O share, then got out duplicate stock, other books, a duplicate seal, etc., which they kept at the office, the original books and seal being in the hands of the International Trust company. The latter was the custodian of the books and seal and the financial agents of the Electric Light company. The stockhold- CTS of the company made repeated demands to see these books at the Fremont street of- flee to ascertain what they were and what the management was doing but were put of. After repeated efforts they learned that con- siderable stock had been issued from the books on Fremont street which were not reg istered on the company's books at the Trust company's office, all of which unauthorized and illegal. They also ascertained that by vote of the management or otherwise $1OO, 1000 paid in had disap- peaced. The treasury was empty and the property and contracts of the company, it is alleged, had been assigned and transferred to Prescott, Hersey, Hastings &5 Go. for sup posed advances of money made when the company had 5000 in their coffers. The above firm is mainly composed of managers of the Electric Light company, SO the object in view can be seen. Directors of national | reputation, whose names had been used for influence, were dropped and the whole busi- ness left in the hands of the managers. A proposition to consolidate was made to the New York company and contracts | made with few stockholders for the delivery of stock Golf procured some | stock by giving draft which was never paid l and when it came due the managers formed new company, using the stock of the new company to satisfy those who held certificates | of the over issued stock of the old company. l When a suit was threatened the managers used every effort to prevent the same, threat ening to publish an ec paTte statement, which they did this morning. The stockholders | will press the suit and the whole affair will l be ventilated in the courts.

tees took up Dr. Smyth second time, and
 gave him unanimous vote. Friday the
 board of visitors met at the United States
 Hotel in this city, and were in council until
 yesterday afternoon. It is understood that
 they still hold to their former position, but decided not to announce the result until a subsequent time, and if more light was gained, to reconsider the conclusion to which they had come. The board consists of Pres ident Seelye, of Amherst college; Rev. Dr. Eustis, pastor of the Memorial church of Springfield, and MT. Charles Theodore Rus sell, of Cambridge. Dr. Eustis is opposed to Dr. Smyth on the ground of his supposed dis belief in eternal punishment, which is one of the chief corner stones of Dr. Eustis' theolog- ieal edifces. President Seelye is more lib- eral, but still clings to the old orthodox creed. The board, in it's first action, took the ground that they were opposed to Dr. Smyth's method of teaching
