FRIDAY. JUNE as, 1901.

NOTWITHSTANDING the heroic ef-
forts OF the officers Of the Seventh
National Bank Of New York. its
doors were closed yesterday and
Forrest Raynor appointed tempo.
rary receiver. The cause OF the
suspension was that Henry Mar
quand g. Co had recently become
indebted to the bank In Aum ap.
proximatiug 81, 600, 900. which loan
was secured by collateral OF a
doubtful nature. Yesterday the
days clearings aggregated $780,
474. At the clearing house. the
bank only turned in 500, Sos to
meet that amount, and consequent
ly it was debtor to the clearing
house in the sum, of S655, los. The
institution being unable to pay the
suspension sum was forced to the
wall. This is only one of the many
suppose d strong banks being forced
10 quit business owing to bad loans
with insufficient collateral. The
officers Of the bank should be COM
PEELED 10 make up the shortage and
not the stockholders. 1t the man.
agement Of the banks was held
person ally responsible, there would
be fewer bank failures.
