MISNEAPoLIs, MINI, Feb. 6.-The
American Building and Loan Association
of this city, capitalized at 100000 and
doing business of 81, 900, 900 per annum,
must wind mp its affairs. Pu lie Examiner
Kenyon yesterday completed an investi-
CATION OF It's affairs, and has filed re-
port with the attorney general. in which he
says:
Il have to report the following facts in
regard to the financial transactions and
condition of the American Building aid
Loan Associa ion of Minneapolis, which
facts make 1t appear to me that it is unsafe
or lnexpedlent for such corporation to con-
tlnue to transact business. An examination
of the bust esS of the association shows
that the total sum paid in by the share
holders up to Dec. Z 1889. was 81, 246, 7l9 81,
less $50 22O 90 premiums paid and $1,000 81
lnStalments withdra wn, leaving $780,
437 80. The assets are 81, 131, 7l9 20, sho =
ing an excess of receipts over as cts Of S74,-
us 70. The association being organized for
the purpo @ of making a pr A. for share
holders, after having run the business two
years or more, shows a deficiency of STA
us 20 in counting for none IS received
from its shareholders, Notwithstanding the
shareholders have paid to its age Is, in adj
ditlon to the above, a large sum estimated
at S266,00D in admission fees, for expenses
of the agents in Obtaining the subscriptions
of stockholders to the stock.
The deficiency appears to be nearly 6
per cent. of the total sum received, and |
know Of no loaning bust ess that can safely
be pursued where the expense for all pur-
poses reaches that percentage"
In concluding his report the public ex-
aminer calls attention to several violati )ns
of the state law in i yes me It's made on be-
half of the association by It's officers. The
attorney general is expected to act on the
report I'd begin proceedings at once against
the association.
