The loss Of the Maverick National Bank
on account of its dealings with Mr.. Evans
would be about S20c, 900 if the collateral
could be iudiciously disposed of. That
loss had been figured out and charged
on before the crisis of last week arose.
The banks dealing with Mr.. Evans can in no

somewhat complicated. The first tangible
