the National Bank of Illinois, had a CON

conference did not result in any import

a first dividend of fifty per cent. on
claims proved will be declared in a very
short time
No insolvent national bank has ever
been able to do so well by its depositors
within so brief a period subsequent to
its failure.
The four directors represented that they
did not know the bank had invested 50

December, 1895, and compelled the Chicago
