The Failure Of the Bank to Con-

to It's Attempt to Bolster Up
Firm Handling California
Prunes and Other Dried Fruits.

SAN JOSE. Jan. 31.-The Union Saw
ings Bank, an institution supposeo 70
be solvent. has ceased to receive de-
posits OF pay out money. The announce
ment was made at the openln. OF sne
bank this forenoon, and wave OIL eA-
citement quickly swept over the CITY.
From all the information oDialnaple
it appears that the failure of the bank
to continue business was caused by us
attempt to bolster up the firm OF How
ard & Co., dealers IN California prunes
and dried fruits. The crash came When
Howard & Co. went to the wall, owing
to a number of attachments placed
against the firms property WITHIN the
past week. -
Last summer, so it is stated, the bank
loaned Howard & Co. money on ap--
proved security. Some months later
when the firm was about to go INTO
insolvency, the bank lent more money
this time on personal security, IN the
hope that Howard 4 Co. would be able
TO tide over the season and realize on
their Eastern speculations. But the
low price of pruneS and the 1mpor-
tunity of creditors forced a c,'.slS, ana
now the bank finds itself in the neigh
borhood of 100000 out on the Howard
& Co. investment.
H. w. Wright is the President and
manager of the bank, E. A. Wheeler is
Vice President, the Cashier is Antonio
Freaut, and the other directors are:
n. Bowden, T. E. johnson and H. =.
Morrell. All these are well Oft imam
cially, and they claim that in snort
time, as soon as they can realize on
their securities, said to be ample, they
will pay all depositors dollar for dollar

The storm which was central in
Washington this morning has elongated
into a trough of low pressure extending
from Washington southeastward into
Northern Arizona. An area of nigh
pressure overlies Montana and the
country to the east of the Rocky
Mountains, accompanied by tempera-
lures below zero.
Light rain or snow has fallen
throughout Washington, Ogegon, along
the California coast as far south as
Cape Mendocino, Idaho and the coun-
try to the east of the Rocky Mountains.
The temperature has fallen over the

more Wednesday, and will be accom-
panied by high northwest winds.
Conditions are favorable for scattered
showers, with SHOWS in the mountains,
