RECEIVER APPOINTED
II. A. Rogers, of Solomon, Will Settle
the First National's Aff.irs.

IL. A. Rogers, of Solomon. Will Settle
the First Nationals Affairs.
The Hon. E. S. Lacey, comptroller
of the currency at Washington, this
morning sent his recommendation of a
receiver for the First National bank
which suspended Dec. 10th. The gen
tleman who is to assume the important
task of settling the affairs of the iDsti
tuition is Mr.. George A. Rogers, of Sol
ONION City. Mr.. Rogers is eminently
fitted for the position. During the
past nine years he has been cashier of
the Citizens bank of Solomon and has
by his straightforward businesslike
record made himself reputation 70 be
proud of. lie is gentlemen OF unim-
peachabIe character and the creditors
of the bunk W i'll have the best possible
treatment at his hands. We congratu
late them as well as Mr.. Rogers upon
the selection.
Mr.. Rogers bond, $4,000, will be
forwarded 10 Washington tonight and
upon its approval by the comptroller
the books Of the bank will be turned
over to him by Examiner J. NJ. Griffith
who is now in charge.
There is nothing new regarding the
status Of the banks finances. Mr..
Griffith has had no duty to perform but
to schedule the liabilities, assets, etc.,
for the government records. The de-
positors Will be paid in full owing to
the stockholders liability, but the
stockholders will receive probably but
an exceedingly small dividend. AS we
remarked before, however, every possi-
bic dollar will be realized from the as
sets under Mr.. Rogers management.
