the usual way, DIR. Azam has performed an
interesting practical experiment. He ap-
piled cacao butter as grease for the ANAL

New York special OF the 14th says !:
The affairs of the Second National Bank,
which was In trouble and on which there
was a run to-day, are more hopeful.
because Emo, Sr., has come to the rescue
81 his son, Emo, Jr., who was president OF
the bank. The institution paid all who
asked for their cash to-day.
Mr.. j. b. Hamilton. OF west Iwehty-
eighth street, one OF the largest deposltors.
was In the bank in the afternoon and nad
A talk with Mr.. Amos X. Emo. DIR. Emo
said 10 Mr.. Hamilton that he had maze up
the deficiency caused by MS sens specu-
Iafion, and that the bank was firmly on its
feet. Al that time IL was rumored that the
deficit caused by the ex-president was
S4,000,0O0. Mr.. Hamilton asked Mi. Emo
about it. When Mr.. Hamilton was
asked II the rumor put the dencH 700
high he said that Mr.. Eno's remarks
were confidential. Director Henry A.
Hurlburt SAID that he believed the dench
was about 81, 000, 900, and that Mr.. Amos
r. Emo had made up large part OF the
loss, the stockholders fixing up the bal,
ance. He said further that at half.past 3
O'Clock about $500, 900 had been withdrawn
by depositors, and that about S1,OOO,0OO IN
cash was still available to pay out before
the closing OF the bank.
"What was the cause OF the deficiency
and how was it managed?" was asked.
81 cannot tell you. Mr.. John c. Emo
would have been liable to Imprisonment,
but lis father, who is worth $500 0,00O,
has made good the loss and has agreed to
see the bank through safely for any
amount"
.Have you any idea how many deposit
ors there Gre?"
"About 1000, These people here in
line represent very small number OF the
depositors and those who have the smaller
credits here"
To deposition Director Stokes said t:
.'By the arrangement made last night Mr..
Amos r. Emo puts up S3,500,00 in securl-
ties, and the other stockholders S5O0,O0O.
That makes up the full deficit OF $4,000
300. Mr.. Emo has deposited sl,OOO,OO0 in
cash already to-day and has arranged to
bring in another million in the morning
and another on the next day ii needed.
He drew 100000 Of that cash from the
