ANOTHER NATIONAL BANK FAILURE.

President King Accepts a Grain Dealers
Paper Contrary to Ihe Orders OF the
Bank Directors With the Usual Result.
MIDDLETowE, n. Y, Nov 28.-The Middle
town National Bank has failed. Its doors
closed this morning. The failure was caused
By President Thomas King, who accepted
large drafts from Benjamin d. Brown, q
grain dealer OF indianapolis and Burling-
assignment The banks capital is 5000, 600;
surplus, 1880 The extent OF the loss Is
not known yet definitely. The depositors
will lose nothing. President King takes all
the blame on himself His recent advances
were made without the knowledge OF other
officers and directors. The Bank Examiner
IL on his way from Washington. A slight
run was made on the Savings Bank here,
but the latter is in no way involved and will
stand q run easily.
EEwBURa, n. y, Nov. 2S.-The news of
the Middletown bank failure caused some
excitement in the eastern part Of Orange
County. Eewburg banks are not much af
stitutiOn owed one OF them s., 600, which
will probably be paid. Among the direct
ors of the suspended bank are United States
Senator Van Wyck, OF Nebraska, formerly
of this county.
MlDDLETowE, n. Y, Nov. 2s.-Bank Ex-
smiDer George T. May, of Washington. is
now in possession Of the Middletown Ma
tiODal Bank. President KING takes all the
blame on himself. In July last the direct
ors notified King that Browns credit must
not be extended, b reduced. King DISC
beyed the instructions and broke the bank.
The record of the acceptance of Browns
drafts on the bank were kept by King in
a book in bis possession, and concealed from
the other officers. SO far as known, no
more than 500, 600 Of such scceptances are
out. 1t is the opinion of those best in
formed that the entire capital and surplus
will be wiped out. The run on the Savings
Bank here drew $40 600 today. The bank is
solvent and ready for any emergency.
Houston & Conklin, and G. c. v. Ketchsm,
grain dealers of this village. who are in
dorsers for considerable amounts on
Browns paper, have made assignments 70
protect their creditors. President King is
home very Ill, it Is not though here that he
has profited by the crooked transactions, but
be was infatuated with Brown. The
operations were very hesvy, as much as half
a million OF his paper was handled by the
bank in single week.
