Loss Of 64.3 Per Cent.

The Diamond State Loan Association
was in session this afternoon. Its members
voted on a resolution providing for the
dissolution CT the corporation. The neces-
sary two-thirds vote for dissolution was
polled and the resolution and vote will now
be transmitted to the Chancellor and upon
bis order the stockholders will receive what
is left for. them. About a month ago
when the report of George G..
Maris, the late secretary, was made to
the corporation It was supposed that the
concern was worth $4,000, but the audi
tors examination developed only $4,000
for realization from the investments. This
is the result OF gross mismanagement and
of loss upon loans made years ago to Daniel
