GLOBE NATIONAL BANK
in RECEIVERS HANDS.
Result of Action by Comptroller
Dawes, Who Says Institution
Was Found to Be InsOlvent.

Washington, Dec. 22.-Comptroller
Dawes last evening appointed Special
Examiner Daniel q. Wing temporary
receiver of the Globe National bank Of
Boston, Mass. In connection with his
action the comptroller said: Sometime
ago Mr.. Wing. who is one of the ex-
perts employed in the system Of special
bank examiners recently inaugurated,
discovered a serious condition of affairs
in the Globe National bank. which he
Immediately brought to the attention OF
the comptroller, and under his direc-
tion, the directors of the bank. The
directors very readily agreed and
undertook to make good the doubtful
and bad assets found and have eagerly
improved the condition OF the bank
since that time. rhey also delivered to
the comptroller "a written guaranty
that they would remove the doubtful
assets. The recent failures in Boston
have lessened the value Of the unper-
formed portion of the guaranty and in
volved the solvency of the bank
In view OF the fact that to allow
the bank To remain open longer will
result in injustice to unsecured credi-
tors now that the condition Of insol-
Vency is found TO exist. il becomes my
duty under the law TO appoint re-
ceiver. A considerable cash dividend
can be paid to creditors at once.
THE condition OF the bank was dis
covered by Special Examiner Wing in
time To secure such action Oh the part
Of the directors as will probably pre-
vent the failure from inhicting heavy
losses upon the depositors, but the d.
rectors and stockholders will lose heav-
ily."
The bank. il is understood was in
volved in the Squire failure and i'm min
ing stocks.
The following is a condensed state
ment Of the condition of the bank as
reported To- the comptroller Dec. 2 1899:

The Richmond Times does not think
that the declaration. 81 am q Demo-

enough, for 1900. 1t is a declaration en-
Enthusiastically endorsed and echoed by
G,5000 600 voters of Democrats, and dis
sented from by rapidly dispensing
squad Of $4,000 "gold-Democrats:" but
the Times wants the $500, 900 to yield to
the $4,000 for the sake of unity and
harmony. Suppose we set aside 1874, 900
Democrats to set up" with the Times
$4,000 indictments. and to agree to any
suggestion the latter may chose to
make. except going with Hanna against
the Democratic party, it's candidate and
platform-how does that strike the
Times? AS satisfactory? Or does 1t
still insist on the entire surrender of
the 6,50O,000, at discretion" to the 1884,
900?
AS to the chief issue. we no longer
wonder that our ingenious contempo-
rary urges that it must be made
against expansion" Certainly: make
1t what you please; speak against ex-
pansion all day, and write against it all
night. The party will not dictate or
limit the "chef topic" to be discussed.
Let each man make his own. But what
does the Times propose to do with those
fellows who insist on making the main
fight against trusts?
