Bank Suspension.
Boston, March 6-The banking house
OF Thos. A. Sweet & Co., suspended this
forenoon, causing considerable excite
ment in financial circles. The house has
been advancing money, it is stated, 70
the Massachusetts Central railrond, talk
ing its bonds and placing them iu mark
ct. The road is a new one, and the bonds
have sunk in value and the banks which
have been carrying the bonds called on
Sweet & Co. for additional funds. To
this call the firm have been unable to
respond.
1t is stated that Sweet & Co. borrowed
about S2,00O,O0O from Boston banks on
collateral securities and that they held
five hundred Massachusetts bonds. A
member of the firm states that they hope
to pay in full. The firm subscribed to
to only $4,000 of the Massachusetts
Central bonds at the start, but had since
loaned large sums upon them and have
of late been buying heavily to sustain
the market. 1t is rumored that the col
lapse of the Connecticut Valley securi.
ties hastened the disaster.
The liabilities amount to between
three and four millions. The firm will
probably not resume, but will liquidate
by paying dollar for dollar.

A meeting Of the prominent citizens
Of Fargo was held Thursday evening for
the purpose of discussing and consider
ing the erection of new hotel costing
not less than $4,000. A committee was
appointed consisting of Messrs. Eddy,
Edwards, Ball. Darling aud Fleming to

ters hotel, and the Northern Pacific rail-

ments could be made with them and
what aid the railroad company would
give to the enterprise, call another meet
ing and hand in their report.
A prominent railway man, from the

York magnates stated he had understood
that John @. Gault, OF the Wabash, had
been rendered the position of general
superintendent Of the Chicago, Milwau.
kee and st. Paul system, and that Mr..
Gault would be strongly urged by all his
old friends and associates in Milwaukee
to accept the position. The gentleman
also stated that Alex. Mitchell and the
officers of the Chicago. Milwaukee and

leaving that company, and that special

Gault to return to Milwaukee. 1t is be-
lived that Mr.. Gault will 20 back
to the st. Paul company.
Last Friday the congressional naval
committee inspected at Wilmington and
Chester the unfinished monitors. The
observations made by the members of
the committee, with one or two excep-
tions. may be said to have impressed
them with the idea that the monitors
should bs finished in some way, if only
for the purpose Of harbor defense. Chair.
man Harris says he will report to con
gress and leave the decision with that
body. He said further: II think it
would be we'll to put sufficient work on
the vessels which We have examined to.
day to warrant launching them. II this
we're done and the vessels launched in
