New York, Feb. 19.-The Ameri can Loan

Three savings banks, one in Syracuse, one

payment of deposits amounting to $3.50, 600.
The institution could not pay, and at the
request of one of the. savings banks the
superintendent took possession.
This evening Bank Examiner Preston
made verbal statement as follows; ''The
Liabilities amount to 50, 1924, S27; the appar-
ent deficiency is 1886, 7s9. Since the COM
pany closed the doors to-day have been
waited upon by influential men, and I have
strong reasons to believe that it IS possible
that certain securities which I have esti-
mated at low figure may be paid to-mor-
row in full. If this IS done we will have
reduced the deficiency to $475, 900. I be-
lleve that the remainder will be made good
by the stockholders of the institution, and
it may be placed on its feet again. 1 am
confident the depositors will be paid in
full. II

KANSAS CITY, Feb. 19.-The Union Invest

ties OF the company are about 81 600, OOO
and It's assets are an equal amount. The
assignment was made for the reason that
the company thought it the best way to
protect all OF its creditors alike. The cause
of the failure is given as the difficulty in
calling Western loans and negotiating paper
in the East.
BANK FAILS.

If Gen. Sibley, before he fell into his last
stupor, was aware that death was so near,
he never indicated the fact to his family or
any one about him. Friday he talked over
some business matters with his son, Mr. C.
F. Sibley. His mind seemed perfectly
clear, but in no way did he indicate real
ization of the situation. However, the gen.
eral was by nature inclined to be reticent
upon such matters, and hence it is believed
that in reality he was we'll aware of his
condition. 1t was but a short time after
the conversation with his son that he be-
came unconscious.
