trainers occupy the drawing room

been transformed into miniature
gymnasium.

plenty of time in which to catch the
train. Just before leaving Mitchell de-
clared that he felt fit to fight for his life.

be reticent when asked about his
chances Of winning. He said: ~ will
give Corbett good run for the money,
and if he whips me he will know he has

Closing of the St. Nicholas Bank of New


Closing of the st. Nicholas Bank of New
York, Which Seemed to be Gilt-edged.
NEW YORK, Dec. 2l.-State Bank Super.
intendgnt Preston, this morning, took
charge of the st. Nicholas Bank, and
pending an examination, the bank will be
closed.
The st. Nicholas Bank, November 9th
last had capitol of $780, 900, net surplus
and profits of sl52, 100, and deposits of
81, sos, 500, The bank had offices in the
Mills building.
There has been suspicion of the condi-
ton of the st. Nicholas for some time, and
it has her closely watched. Bank Superin-
iendent Preston summoned, yesterday,
Messrs. Happen of Gallatin Bank and
Nash Of the Corn Exchange Bank, as
members Of the clearing house committee,
to q conference with him.
An examination by these gentlemen of
the banks books revealed that the capital
was largely impaired and it was deemed
advisable to close the doors of the bank
pending an examination, While the con-
dition of affairs warranted the closing of
the bank, it was believed that the assets
will permita payment Of depositors in full.
