ANOTHER SUSPENSION.
The Penn Bank Of Pittaburgh, After Pay
ing out Half Million, suspends.

PITTSBURGH, Penn. May el.-The
Penn bank, Of this city, closed It's doors at
l2:2O p. m, posting the following on the
doors:
"Owing to a continued run for several days,
we have decided It wise, for our dcpositors
and all concerned, to suspend payment for the
present"
William N. Riddle, president OF the bank,
which is doing the largest business Of any
bank In Pittsburgh, got up from a sick bed
this morning, and is now at the bank.
Mr.. Riddle said: 81 haze nothing to say In
detail now, but am here TO face the music and
do my duty. Owing to an unfounded report
which was made current by Interested and
malicious persons, there has been run on US
for several days, and our deposits have been
decreased between $500, and 100000 H.
five days. We therefore deemed IL wise to
take the action which we have row taken. Far
ther, ! have nothing to say, except tina: am
individually the largest loser, having the larg-
est deposit and the largest amount Of stock In
the bank"
Rumors we're set afioat by Interested parties
that the Penn bank and two Others had been
allowing oil brokers to overdraw their ac-
counts, and the result was a run.
One OF the stockholders says the suspended
institution is entirely solvent and will pay
every dollar. The capital stock Of the bank
Is $4,000.
William e. Schmertz, president Of the
Third National, says he has seen the balance
sheets Of the Penn bank, and thinks they will
be able to pay all their debts, and that It ia
solvent. The other banks he regards a.
strong enough 70 stand the crisis. They will
stand by each other rs they did In New York.
Mr.. Schmertz reflects the views OF = large
number Of the most prominent bankers.
OFFICIAL STATEMENT.
President Riddle tonight made the follow
inu official statement 10 the Aaaociatcd pre..
''the Board Of Directors met this afternoon
and began an examination into the affairs OF
the bank. Their examination justihes them
and myself In the statement that the bank can,
~ matters now stand, pay dollar for dollar on
its deposits In stock. We have received offers
Of assistance from many soarces. As to the
later"
From On outside source II was learned that
the banks liabilities will not exceed oi,6OO,.
600, and that the assets will more than cover
this: The only question 10 - to the time to
realize.

oa1e1S of raE NATIONAL MusEUa.-From an
illustrated article by Ernest 1ngersoll, IN the
January Century, we quote the following In no
single respect, perhaps. has the progress OF tho
American capital been more striking than In 'he
history of the National Museum. Originating III
a quantity of 'curiosties' which had been Civ ="
TO the United States by foreign powers, or sen"
home BY consul and naval officers, old visitors L"
Washington remember it as a heterogeneous cab''
net in the Patent Office. 1t included such diverse
objects as the fcmur of a Missouri mastooon;
Washingtons knee breeches, and the oriental
spoils OF the Wilkes expedition around the world.
In 1947 a step was taken toward something CO.
herent and creditable by an act of Congress es-
tablishing National Museum, following the
precedent of dozen or moro other nations; put
this intention took effect very slowly, though va
rious exploring expeditions and embassies largely
increased the bulk of the collections Wnen inc
inventive faculty of this Yankee race had crowd t.
ed the Patent Office with models, the cabinet OF
curiosities' was trundled over to the Smithsonian
Institution"
