The Philadelphia Ledger reports, that
, although the Mutual Banking, Surety and
/ Trust Company, in which were kept the
deposits of thu order of the Iron II al, closed
its doors on Tuesday, and receiver has
been asked for, l. is thought surprising that
there is so little apprehension manifested
BY the members of the Order of Iron Hall
as a consequence of the banking company
following close upon the beginning of lega
, proceedings in Indianapolis looking to
a have Receiver appointed for the Order
f Those who have talked about the matter
q profess implicit confidence that the Order
! will emerge from the cloud which at present
q hangs over it in as good condition as it ever
was. Even the despatch received last even
, ing from Indianapolis stating that drafts or
, the Order af Iron Hall had gone to protest
, did not seem to have the slightest depre
+ sive effect on the sanguine certificate mold
n ers, who argued that this action was taken
/. by order of the Court in that city, and that
a az soon as the present litigation is at ems
v the organization will be found to rest on
q solid basis.
