WASsNGroN, Pa, May 5.-A bill in
equity has been filed for the dissolution OF
the Washington Savings Bank, on account
of Cashier Ruth's defalcation. The sub
stance Of the bill is as follows: The stock of
the bank consisted of 5000 shares at $50 per
share, OF which 20 per cent has been paid
in; that Samuel Ruth, cashier. on the 10th
of April last, confessed that he had en-
bezzled $50, 900 of the bank funds and con.
cealed st by false entries in the books, &c.
that oe5ag to the confusion of the books
eths dsseesors could not ascertain ,yith-cer-
tainty the condition of the bank, hut their
investigation had thus far disclosed
that the certificates of deposit
amounted to $4,000; that a large
part of the assets were at
present, unavailable, and it would take
time to reduce them to cash and convert
real estate into money, and, when so co H.
yerted, would not be sufficient to cover the
liabilities of the bank, and that an assess
ment or call on the stock would be neces-
sary; that under the articles Of association
Jas. w. KuntZ, President, was a trustee
lOT the Uduh ECdl estate anu
loans were in his name as trustee, and ow-
ing to this condition OF affairs, he was I'M
willing to continue as trustee, being of the
opinion that the bank should have its af-
fairs speedily wound up.
The bill closes with prayers that the de-
PENDANTS and stockholders make answer to
the bill and comply with the order of the
Court; that the partnership be decreed to
be dissolved; that receiver of the assets
be appointed that the stockholders be di-
rected to contribute according to the num-
ber OF shares OF their stock, sufficient sums
OF money to pay the liability of the bank;
that after all debts are paid the equities be-
tween the members of the association be
adjusted.
Lewis Barker, one of the stockholders, |
filed the above bill on equity, and made |
application by attorney for the appoint |
ment of a receiver. Judge Hart. in cham |
bers. appointed Gen. John Hall, ex- United |
States Marshal, directing him to give bond |
in $4,000.
General Hall Immediately filed his bond |
and has given notice to all creditors and de- |
positors that he has taken charge of the |
property and assets. and requests them to
present their certificates or other claims |
without delay. He states that all the assets |
of the association will he converted into
cash as speedily as possible. and the pro-
ceeds will be applied to the payment of
outstanding liabilities, that the banks af- |
fairs may be settled with the least possible
delay
