THE HARRINGTON PUBLISHING GO.
BROUGHT BY MIDDLEroWN MIN.
Suit Against Mercantile Cooperative
 Bank of New York.

New York, Dec 5.-Suit has been be- gun in the United States circuit court by Caleb B. Leach of Middletown, Conn.,, against the Mercantile cooper ative bank of this city, it's president, John w. Newbury and Charles Clag- horn, Augustus L. Chatterton, Archi- bald M. Pentz, William Amphill, George H. Amsdell, George Brown and John Frank Hemper, the directors, for an accounting. Leach in his complaint says that heis the owner of 190 shares of the stock of the bank which have a maturing value of $100,000 and for which he paid $9,50O. The bank, he says, is a building, loan and accommodating fund association and he alleges that the president has obtained almost abso- lute control of it, and is guilty with the others of mal-feasance in office. MT. Leach further charges that President Newbury has caused large salary to be paid himself and that with the direc- tors he has entered upon unsafe con- tracts in which they are personally in- terested, with the money of the bank. He claims that the bylaws have been violated in the making of leans on sec ond mortgages and that unearned divi- dends have been paid.
 The operating expenses, he says, art excessive, amounting to over $30, ,00l 1 last year and he asesrts that the cor, poration is on the verge of insolvency the assets not being equal to the lia
 bilities. The condition of the bank, h
 says, has been misrepresented to thu
 stockholders by the defendants, wht
 have organized a corporation known q
 "The Mercantile Cooperative Bank o l New Jersey" to which they have di
 yerted the money of the Mercantile Co I operative bank. The complainant cite
 that the total earnings in 1897 were re
 ported by the defendants to the banl
 department to be $S3219 and the amour
 due depositors $45S,320 while to tn
 stockholders the figures given out Wer
 earnings $104,004 and amount due stock
 holders $1,044, ,S01. MT. Leach asks tha
 an examiner be appointed to investi gate the management and officers c the bank and that the president and di rectors be restrained from paying ou any money pending the hearing of tn case.

NETs FROM SANTIAGO.
Commissioner Porter Gives a Farewell Luncheon-Anncxat Sentiment.

Santiago de Cuba, Dec. 1.-(Delayed in transmission)-Rob P. Porter, the special commissioner of the United States to Cuba and Porto Rico rethrn- ed here yesterday from his inspertlon of the mines. He gave farewell lunch- con to-day at the Venus cafe at which twenty-five guests were present. It was a most cosmopolitan gathering ana included representatives of the army and navy, the commercial and mining industries, etc. The affair was not in- tended to be anything more than so- cial gathering, but all the party Tnade speeches and, although none or the speakers absolutely declared in faVof of annexation it was unquestlonaply apparent that twenty-one of the guests were in favor of the island being an- nexed to the United States.
 Colonel Garcia thanked the United States for all that had been done TOT Cuba since April, and said he peheVeo that Cuba would always show herself grateful. Captain Mendoza responding declared that Cuba, free of annexation would never forget the debt she owed to the United States.
 President Mckinley and Queen Vic toria were toatsed and every aluslon te the good feeling existing between tn' l two countries evoked much enthusiasm ! General Wood arrived at Guantanamo 1 yesterday on board the Hist. He hac a long interview with Colonel Ray, th' l commander of the colored immune reg | iment. He also had a talk With Geh ! eral Perez, who said that he was fas ! disarming the Cuban soldiers and get 1 ting them to work and the district wa gradually resuming it's normal conol
 tion, MT. Porter received impression
 while here which caused him to capl
 to Washington a request that no ac
 ton be taken for the present on tn
 recommendations he had made in tn
 proposed changes and to-day an ansWe
 was received that the matter would b held in abeyance.
