The Bunnel & Scranton Banking
 House-A Statement Nearly Ready.
 MT. Scranton, of the late firm of Bunnen & Scranton, was able to sit up but a little while yesterday and received visits from, 8 few of his friends. He is still, however, in feeble state, and his physician, Dr. Lindsley, counselled hin to remain as quiet as possible, as this was extremely neces- sary in his present weakened state. Dr. Lindsley said yesterday afternoon that it was doubtful if MT. Scranton would be able to leave the house this week.
 At the Bunneu & Scranton banking house the cashier, Mr. Newton, and the assistants were busy all day yesterday pre- pairing 8 statement of the firms affairs, which will be ready for publication to-day or tomorrow. ,rs Although no definite information can be obtained until the statement is made it if 1 ment will show deficit. When the state ment appears it will be scanned eagerly by all interested. Some of the deposits | at the bank in individual cases amount tt between $7, ,OOO and $8,O00. Among the depositors are some of the prominent busi l ness and professional men of the city | Those who have stock carried on a margin there were busy yesterday endeavoring tt raise money to pay their balances, ant
 secure their stock. No business was dom
 with the bank yesterday except selling O
 securities by order of the owners througl
 the New York correspondents of the house
 No money has been received or paid ou
 since the temporary closing of the house
 Parties eonversant with the financial deal
 ings of the house said last evening that tn
 amount of money on deposit would reacl
 $200, 900; other authorities estimated tn
 amount as not over $100, Various ru
 mors are floating about, but the true con
 dition of affairs will not be known unti
 the much desired statement makes it's aI
 pearance. Many proffers of help, if need
 ed, have been made to MT. Scranton, an
 if the statement shows the business to b
 sound there will be eager bidders for
 share in it.
