THE COMMITTEE"
One OF the heaviest losers by the closing
OF the bank is DR.. p. 3. NJ. Miller. who ex-
presses himself freely In reference 70 the
failure. He has this TO say IN reply to
the statement that none of the directors
nor the president owed the bank when
IL closed it's doors:
1--WE do not care whether the president
and manager owes the bank a cent or not,
but what we are anxious to know Is
what has become OF the money belong
There is a state law making the recep-
ton or deposits a felony when a bank
knows that IL Is Ia a failing condition.
With the evidences at our disposal there
can be no doubt that We have a good
case.
so far as the published opinion is con-
cerned OF the gentleman who Is supposed
National bank conducted its affairs
inferring that this action by the deposit
ors would do 10 good as IL would only
lose them their money, ] have this 10
say, that he must be In sympathy with
the bank. for Il Is the intention of the
deposltors TO push this matter to Its end.
'I am satisfied that had the Merchants
National bank been conducted rs affairs
with the same jealous business discretion
which has characterized the dealings Of
the leading financial banks OF our city
during their history the depostors of the
defunct bank would today be able 10
draw out every dollar. As Ii IS, / have
very serious doubts of their getting any
thing approaching the value OF their cred
It's, and then only after full disclosure
is made, and the methods of the manage
ment are vigorously assailed."
Receiver Charles II. Baker now has
offices on the first floor OF the Bailey

BRAND THE CLAIM AS FALSE.
Worlds Fair Officials Expose a Pre-

Ono OF the odd results OF the Worlds
Fair IS the claim now made TO award
by some who were not even ex-
hibitors Officials OF the exposition

ton IN the matter. believing the quick wit
OF the people will detect the spurious
claims. But TO the case OF a New York

vertssing an award, the attention of the
Chief of Awards for Agriculture has been
directed. He brands the claim OF this pre-
tender as false declaring ''Neither the re-
cords OF this department nor the official
catalogue OF the Worlds Columbian Expo
sition show that this New York company
was an exhibitor: consequently &c could
not receive an award al the Worlds Fair."
