The official statement of the banks con- dition will not, it is thought, be ready un- l til tomorrow, so much and so complicated l are the many of the transactions on the books. The force of employees at the bank is very busy preparing the much looked for statement. But that it will afford much balm for the creditors of the bank if little expected.
 The losses will not all be borne by per
 sons of means, who will not seriously feel l them. A sad incident, and one which shows what such disasters mean to some occurred yesterday morning. An old lady dressed in black, and with crippled hands
 was anxiously enquiring of people at the
 corner of Orange and Chapel streets yes terday forenoon if they knew the condi-
 tion of the bank. When told that she was
 likely to lose most of her deposit there she
 began to weep and said: ''It is all I have
 in the world cannot work with these
 hands and I don't know what I shall
 a poor old woman like me-" She finally
 after asking several people in the hope oi getting some encouraging reply, went away greatly dejected.
 l Among the depositors of the bank are many well known citizens, business men

 ladies and others. The largest deposit oi one person, as far as heard from, is $8, GOO
 Many. others range from $1 ,000 to $6,0OO | There are many small accounts between | $1O0 and $500. There are some less thar $1O0.
