TO INCREASE ITS CAPITAL STOCK.
DIRECTORS VOTE TO RAISE THAT OF THE
HANOVER NATIONAL. BANK FROM
100000 TO s3COOCOO.

The Board of Directors of the Hanover Ma
tional Bank yesterday voted unanimously 10
recommend to the shareholders increase of
the capital stock of the institution from
S1.OOO,0OO to S3.OO0,OOO. and issued a circular
letter to the shareholders announcing it's step
and giving notice of special meeting of share
holders to be held May IA to take action on
the recommendation. The additional stock is to
consist of twenty thousand shares of the par
value of 500. This stock is to be sold at 300,
and of the 100000 thus realized S2,O00,OOO
will be added to the banks capital and 100000
to its surplus. 1t is announced that the assent
of the holders OF more than two-thirds of the
stock has already been secured TO the propo-
sition for increasing the capital.
According to the latest weekly statement of
the Associated Banks the surplus and undi
vided profits of the Hanover amount to
50. .S46, 400, and the 50, ,OOO,O 900 to be added
through the sale of the new stock will bring the
surplus account to about S5OOOO00 National
bank stock has double liability so that the
S3,OOO,0OO capital stock, If the proposition for
increase shall be ratified. will represent a share
holders liability of $4,000 900. making the total
security afforded by the bank to its depositors
about S11 100000
The Hanover is the third National bank in this
city which recently has announced an increase
of capital. The National City Bank, which is
closely affiliated with the Hanover. last winter
increased its capital from S1.OOO,OOO to
S1OOO0OOO and the National Bank of Com
merce, upon the consolidation with 1t of the
National Union Bank will also have S1O.OOO.OOO
capital. although the charter of the Bank OF
Commerce is special one, the shareholders be-
ing exempt from double liability on their re-
spective holdings. Still another local bank has
a larger capital than the Hanover is to have
the American Exchange National, capital
S5,OOO.OOO.
The deposits of the Hanover National Bank,
S44. .S01 400. reported in the latest Clearing
House statement are exceeded by those of only

DRIED RISONERS-FIGHTING AT
SEVERAL POINTS.

Copyright 1900: BY The New-york TribuneI
[Br CABLE TO THE TRIBuHEl
London April H. 6 a. m.-The seventh month
~ the war in South Africa opens with reports
from Boer sources of another British disaster
II the news can be trusted. a terrible reverse
has been inflicted upon the British arms. Ac-
,ording TO official announcement in Pre-
,o-ia. telegraphed by The News's" correspond
eut a battle has been fought south of Brand
fort IN which the British suffered a loss of six
hundred killed and wounded. In addition to
eight hundred captured by the Beers. This in
tellgence is amply confirmed by THE Mairs''
correspondent on the Boer side. who reports
.roro Brandfort that General De Wet on Satur-
dav defeated the British for the third time with
,r a week the scene of this last engagement
being Meerkatsfontein.
The British casualties estimated by THE
Msirs" correspondent at six hundred killed and
wounded and nine hundred prisoners, while
twelve wagons are also said to have fallen into
the hands Of the Beers.
1t is difficult exactly to locate Meerkatsfon-
tein There is a place of that name eight miles
southeast OF Kroonstad, but British force is
known to have reached so northerly point.
No confirmation has been received from Brit
fish sources OF the reverse, and it would be ad
visabIe not at once to give to statements of
British losses their face value. The present an
nouncement may. after all. be merely a rehash
Of the Boer versions of Sannas Post and Red
dersburg although it should certainly be borne
in mind that The Nails telegram speaks dis
tinctly of a third British defeat.
The latest news regarding Lord Methuen
states that ne is at Zwartkopjesfontein, ten
miles east of Boshof. and it is believed at Pre-
toria that he is moving toward HoOpstad, about
sxty-f1ve miles northeast Of Boshof and about
twenty miles by road from the Vaal /. n. F.

Bangor. Me, April 10 (SpeciaD.-In of the
finest conventions held in the WITH Con-
gress District Charles A Boutelle was to-day
renominated as the candidate of the Repubi-
cans to represent the district in Congress. The
convention was held in the City Hall here. and
there were 265 delegates, a body of men thor
oughly representative of the best element of the
party.
Mr.. Boutelle's name presented TO the con-
venton by E. p. Nealley. of Bangor, who made
earnest speech recounting the Congress
mans splendid services for the district the
State and country, especially in the building
up Of the Navy. and alluding hopefully to his
present physical and mental condition The
nomination seconded by George A Curran.
Of Washington County: r. W. Shaw. of Aroos-
took County, and c. A. Brown. of Piscataquis
County and upon motion of Mr.. Nealley Con-
gresham Boutelle renomnated by accla
nation while the convention cheered itself
hoarse
F. H. Parkhurst, of Bangor. and Wainwright

the National Convention, and Atwood w.
Spalding of Caribou, and F. L. Shaw, of Ma
chias, aternates
The report sent out Monday night from Bos-
ton concerning the condition of Mr. BOutelle
having caused much adverse comment and con-
siderable Indignation. DR.. D. A Robinson. the
Congressman's physician. made a statement to
the convention. in which he said that Mr.. Bou-
telle's physical condition excellent. and that
his mental condition steadily improving
He said that the nomination of another candi-
date would probably be a fatal shock to Mi
Boutelle, and that his denomination would exert
a great influence toward his complete recovery.
Mr. Boutelle has expressed desire TO leave the
sanatorium in Waverly, Mass, where he has
been for several months. but his physicians and
the family think Ii best for him to remain there
until he Is entirely well.

DEVERY MAY GET OUT SOON
PERSISTENT RUMOR THAT HE WILL Be
SUCCEEDED By DEPUTY CHIEF
W. W MLAUGHLIN.

There Is settled belief In police circles that
the days of William s Devery. as Chief OF the
force numbered and that he will soon be
succeeded by Deputy Chief W. w. Mclaughlin
There is the usual stimulation Of unbounded sur
prise by Chief Devery and his particular friends
that such thing should be suggested and the
Police Commissioners seen last night professed
entire ignorance Of the reported change. There
is something in the air. however and 1t IL be-
lieved that Devery will be on the shelf in a few
days Captain Thomas. II viii be remembered.
was offered a sacrifice TO appease the sus-
pcion Of those who usually take little interest
In the police until their acts provoke harsh
criticism. Captain Thomass friends have been
saying ever since the Grand Jury took hin, In
hand. that his administration OF the Tenderloin
precinct had been every whit as creditable as
that of Captain Price but he fell upon evil
times. and his indictment followed.
Devery's enemies have been working quietly
for some time to bring about his downfall
and II looks II Mclaughlin who
several years ago imprisoned In the
Tombs pending the disposition of his trial on
charge Of corruption. will step into the high
place when Devery makes it vacant by retiring
a pension
Rumor has II that conference has been held
between Mayor Van wyck and Mclaughlin
within the last day or two. It Is known that
John F. Carroll, called the Mayor at the
City Hall on Monday. and that yesterday after
neon. while the Mayor busy with a meet
ing Of the Soldiers and Sailors Monument Com
mittee they again entered the Mayors office
but left il without speaking to that official. The
Mayor appeared to be worried about something
yesterday. and spent the greater part of the day
in his private office.
The Police Commissioners seen last night pro-
fessed entire ignorance of the rumored change
Commissioner Jacob Hess was not at Police
Headquarters at all yesterday. His brother-in-
law, Joseph Frankel. who is also his secretary
is dangerously i'll at Mr.. Hess's house and Mr.
Hess was greatly distressed yesterday on ac-
count of this. When seen last night by Trib-
une reporter, he said:
If Devery : gOins 20 reti-e, Il is news to me-
was not at the Office at ali to-day. It is possi-
bic that something took place this afternoon that
warrants the gusss that Devery is going 20 re-
tire, BUT if there was. I said before. I am
not aware of it
Commissioners Abel and York could not be
seen at their homes in Brooklyn last night 1t
was reported that they were in Manhattan.
The Tammany leaders last night denied ali
knowledge of any intention the part OF Chief
Devery to retire. Police Commissioner John 3.
Sexton said that he had information that
Devery intended to get out. Senator Sullivan.
who in Tammany circles is popularity believed 10
make or break police officers, from sergeants up
to Chief. has gone to Hot Springs, and Tam
many men say that nothing will be done about
police changes while he Is away.
