INGTON BANK SUSPENSION.
One of the Directors Makes a Statement
Loans without Coliatera1-What q. S.
Examiner Hepburn Has to Say-Possible
Crookedness in One of the Departments.

NEW YORK, March 20.-Sidell Tilghman,
of the Washington National Banks Dlrec-
tory, made brief statement this morning, in
which he stated that the capital stock of the
bank, which was $780, had been inl-
paired to the extent of about S130, 900, and
this, all on account of the loans made by
President Sherman. Of these loans S63. 900
is owed the bank by John Silva. No col
lateral can be found for the loans to Mr.
Silva. The only evidence for these loans
are drafts on out-of-town parties given
by Mr.. Silva, which were protested. An
other loan made by President Sherman was
SIC, 900 to Captain Norton, of Iife-boat fame.
The loan was made to the Captain for the
Norton Life Boat Construction Company.
Director TilghmAn said that he felt very
certain that the depositors would be paid in
full, and that the only persons to be at loss
would be the stockholders. The net de-
posits of the .,ank amount to about $4,000,
as far as could be learned this morning.
United States Examiner Hepburn gave
out statement to the effect that on Satur-
day last. at the request of Mr.. Tappan, he
went with him to the banS, where they
made an informal examination of all the
assets of the bank, and reached the conclu-
sion that there was an impairment of capi-
tai of the bank to the amount of S75, 900.
This amount Mr.. Tilghman and Mr.. Granger
proposed to make good Monday. On Mon
day morning further examination disclosed
the fact that there was u large loss probably
in the item "Due from banks" That
amount, the item 'Due from banks" is one
in which crookedness is usually found, if
crookedness exists in a bank. 1t will be
necessary to examine this carefully before
it C IN be known certainly the loss which the
bank will sustain through that Item.

ESPECIAL TELEeRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.i
NEW YORK, March 24.-The grand Jury
resumed Its Investigation of the tunnel col
lision this morning, and worked at it until
1 o'clock. 1t is not believed that any
of the officers or directors of the
New Haven Railroad Company will be in
dicted for manslaughter, which is
a felony. The belief in the General Ses.
sions building is that indictments, if any
are found, will be for misdemeanor in per-
mitting the use of the car stove, which is
forbidden in the State by the laws of 1885,
The contention of the counsel for the New
York, New Haven and Hartford Railroads s
directors and officers has been that this law
does not apply to their road, because 1t
prohibits the use Of the stove on the
cars of any road that has 30 miles of
track in this State, whereas the company has

grand jury began its investigation. it is said
that in a test case decided by the Court of
Appeals on October Is, it was decided that
the law against the use Of stoves applies to
the New Haven Railroad.

captured the port the Govern

tance from it and held themselves in readi-
ness to attack the city. The rebels returned
on board, leaving only some 30 men in
charge. The troops soon heard of this and
marched on the place some 200 strong, under
Colonel Solo. They reached the vicinity at
about 6 o'clock in the morning, and there
fell IN with gang of sailors. Firing COM

to promptly open fire. The Blanca, En-

guns, while the transports kept their nit
railleuses busily employed
Tremendous destruction followed, and at
10 A. NJ. fire broke out in a nitrate ware
house, which was extinguished by the fire
brigade. AT $3.50 P NJ. another fire broke
out and this time the efforts of the firemen
proved useless, and the flames spread until

the best stores and buildings were situated,
Iquique is in completely abnormal
situation, and all the inhabitants have
taken refuge on the island, where they had
previously been stationed. Pisagua has
been abandoned by the populace. The re-
port is confirmed of the fight at San Fran

killed and where the rebels were defeated.
In the fight at Iquique on the 18th about
200 persons were killed. The Office OF the

Under the direction of Mr. Preece, the

with cables have been made, and a new cable
designed. The cable consists of four thick
copper wires. Two wires will be required
for single line, as complete metallic cir

be used to supplement the telegraphic serv-

from London to Dover, carrying two wires

rrRoN A STAFF CORRESPONDENT I


HARRISBURG, March 24-The House
concurrent resolution relative to the claim
of over S1,600,0oo which the State has
against the Federal Government will prob
ably never be heard of again. 1t was given
a premature airing in the Senate tonight by
Mr. Grady, who displayed a telegram
from Albany stating that New York
had received its quota of the
direct tax claim, and urged Pennsylvania
to take prompt action toward securing its
share.
The resolution was adopted, but the vote
had scarcely been announced before Senator
fenrose moved to reconsider the vote,
and explained that he and others
had had conversations with the Governor
relative to the proprietv of the resolution
and that he desired to be officially notified
! from Washington as to the States claim,
and communicate with the Legislature
as to the correspondence before the
taking of any action in the mat
ter. Mr.. Quay could not understand
why New York's Governor should have OBJ
tanned the claim of that State while Gov
ernor Pattison had failed to get Pennsyl-
vania's quota. Senator Penrose answered
that Governor Hill held two Offices, which
fact might have given superior means of
information.
Mr.. Kinney, Secretary of the Ballot Re-
form Association, assisted by several other
members of it, conducted an election to-day
under the system proposed in the Baker bill.

were invited to and did participate

rooms, in which booths and other necessary
apparatus were erected. EI-Representative

ciseG his constitutional right to write bis

the ballot was secret.
Cafrey is a member of the knights of La
Dor Legislative Committee. Under the ope-
rations Of the bill he says an employer might
send an agent to see that his men place their
names on the ballot attested by his names,
and thus destroy its alleged secrecy, show
ing that the only way secure a secure a Sc
cret ballot was by Constitutional Conven-
tion. In the opinion of the opponents of

the report recommending this bill, and read
from Commissioner Wright's argument

Mr. Taggart replied that Mr.. Wright was

clause, which the House had stricken out,
and that he had wanted to tax everything
but the railroads, whose representative he
was. Mr.. Findlsy opposed some features
of the bill, but said be would vote for it
Mr.. Ritter, of Philadelphia, said no e1-
PLANTATION of the bill had ever been given,
nor had one reason been advanced why it
should pass. The failure of the old system
lad not been shown, and no one had pre-
dicted what would be the benefits of the
new one.
Mr.. Taggart said that the friends Of the
bill knew what they wanted, and what
they hoped the bill would accomplish. but
no one could tell what it would do until the
Supreme Court had decided upon It,
Mr.. Wherry spoke of the difficulties in
the way of the Revenue Commission. Al
most two years of thought and labor had
been put upon the bill, and. it was full of
imperfections; and vet ii had taken 80 years
TO establish our present system, and within
the past few months the Supreme Court had
found flaws in it. This bill would have to
be construed by that body; but its under
