with the bidding unusually active, and the Of

the start were on a basis of about 71zc higher

was soon exhausted at the advance. There were

LOWELL. Mass. Oct 1e-The Mer-
chants National Bank opened and closed
Its doors at the usual hours to-day and
nothing out OF the ordinary occurred to
interfere with its business despite the sur
prising absence OF the teller. Albert c.
Swift. A slight depression In business
was noticed and inquiries respecting bal
ances were more numerous, but the
run, for which the directors had been
prepared. did not materialize. The bank
had money enough to square accounts
with all depositors.
The most interesting development of
the day was the engagement of counsel TO
represent the interests of the missing
men. This Information leads to the con-
clusion that terms In the direction of a
settlement are soon to be submitted to
the directors.
The only information of the probable
loss was given this morning by one of the
directors. Charles ]. Liiley. who. when
asked as to whether or not the report that
the loss was $50 900 was likely to be an
exaggeration, replied that he believed 1t
would turn out to be an exaggeration.
Tonight the loss Is thought to be even
greater than that amount, however. the
continued silence of the directors being
construed as an unfavorable Indication

all efforts upon the part Of others to trace

Lowell are under constant surveillance by
the police. At a meeting of the bank di-
rectors tonight the affair was fully dis
cussed. but at the close of the meeting
the directors were unwilling to make any
