Mr.. German objected to the nresent
consideration of the motion. and IL
went over till tomorrow.
Mr.. Brown said he had intended IN
say something in reply, but as the mat

not wish 1t to 60 unchallenged. He
did not intend that any infer

Mr.. Butler called up his resolution
offered some days since providing for
the examination of New York banks
by q committee of the senate.
| MIR. Morrill, moved to refer TO the
committee on finance.
Mr.. Blair favored the resolution and
said If the comptroller of currency was
now doing his duty concerning the
banks he had withheld his activity toe
long.
Mr.. Vest said the Marine National
Metropolitan National and Second
National banks of New York
failed with deposits amounting to
many millions. People had been
swindled out of these millions. He
inquired what the comptroller of cur.
rency had been doing while these
banks were putting up their swindlinl
operations and making false state
ments under the eyes of the govern
ment officials.
Mr.. Butler referred to the recent def
alcation of 100000 in CLEVELAND
bank discovered soon after the banl
had been examined by the govern
ment examiner. He inquired how thi
defalcation could, rs reported, cover ,
: long period of time if the examine
had done his duty.
, Mr.. Morrill, said no mode could b
, effected by an investigation.
, Mr.. Plumb said he had heard only
of one bank failure in New York
namely, the Marine National. TIL,
: president of that bank had been in
dicted by the grand Jury on applica
ton of the district attorney. Th
: Metropolitan had closed its doors 70
twenty-nine hours, but the Secon'
National had not closed its doors 9
t all.
r Mr.. Vest said the reason why tn
: Second National had not closed wa
: because one man to save his family
hon or had paid out of his prlvat
q purse SO 100000.
' Mr.. Sherman did not believe an
e good ould come of an investigator
r Nv committee. Such committee
r working in public with reporters an
Il crowd around, would be helpless an
/. as useless as possible. The fact thf
there were no more failures than ma
happened in the last ninety day
after the instance of the defalcatlo
