LOAN CAUSED
BANKS TROUBLE
Comptroller Orders Closing
Of New York Concern
SETTLEMENT is PROMISED
Marquand & Co. Owed Bank Bank
Sl,6OO,OOO, but We're Unable
to Live Up 30 Contract

New York, June 2S.-The Seventh
National bank was closed yesterday by
order of Comptroller of the Currency
Charles G. Dawes, who appointed For
est Raynor, national bank examiner,
temporary receiver. In a statement
Comptroller Dawes says he had receiv-
ed word from the national bank ex-
aminer that Henry Marquand 4 Co.
had recently become indebted In a sum
approximating $780, 900 TO the bank.
which was secured by collaterals of a
doubtful nature. The comptroller
states that the loan is partly secured,
and it is hoped the loss to depositors
will not be large.
The action closing the bank was
taken after protraeted conference in
the directors room of the bank, which
was participated In by the new presl-
dent, Edward r. Thomas; former
President William H. Kimball, Edwin
Gould, Lorenzo semple and several
other members of the board.
William Nelson Cromwell, special
counsel for the bank, gave out the fol-
lowing statement from President
Thomas, and added that he was en-
gagged in preparing a plan for reor-
ganization of the AFFAIRS of the bank,
and that 1t was believed that a salts
factory plan would be presented at an
early date:
Mr.. Edward r. Thomas, president Of
the Seventh National bank, stated that
the difficulties of the bank were due
solely to the making by the previous
executive officers of large advances to
Messrs. MarGuand & Co, and that the
security thereon was of IN unmarked
able character although Of consider
able intrinsic value. That upon the
Urgent application Of the board he and
his associate. Mr.. Edwin II. Gould. had
furnished financial assistance upon ade-
quate securities and upon the assur-
ance that the obligations of Marquand
& Co. would be good by yesterday
morning. That the firm named had.
however failed to fulfill expectations,
and while he and Mr. Gould and some
OF the directors we're willing to fur
nish further financial aid, it was not
deemed by them as just either to the
depositors, stockholders or the public
to invite deposits and credit until the
affairs of the bank were again placed
upon an absolutely safe basis. That
for this purpose reasonable time was
necessary, and to prevent unfair pref
erence or advantages, the board de-
termined, with the advice Of counsel,
to suspend operations for the present"
Marquand & Co. were prominent in
the hotation of the Pittsburg, Shaw
NUT and Northern Railway company,
Of which John Byrne is president and
Henry Marquand vice president. When
Mr.. Byrne was seen he said that he
could not see how any loss to the road
could possibly occur.
Postmaster Van Cott has been in
structed to deposit the money order
funds for the present in the sub-treas-
ury at New York, and a new depository
to take the place of the suspended
bank will be determined on by the
postmaster general in a few days.

vALuE OF pRonucrs.

The value of products for the State,
s45, ,437 400, is the gross value, and not the
net or true value. The difference between
these two should be carefully noted. The
gross value is found by adding the values
Of products in the separate establish
ments. But the finished product of one
establishment is often the raw material
for another In such cases the value Of
the former rcappears in the latter and
thus the original cost of certain materials
may be included several times in the
gross value. The net or true value is
found by subtracting from the gross
value the value Of all materials pur-
chased in partly manufactured form.
In this way the Implications in the gross
value are eliminated.

YALE WINS
TWO VICTORIES
Defeats Harvard in Varsity
and Freshman Races
HARVARD WINS FOUR -OAREO
Seniors Was Magnificent Battle,
Winners Crossing the Line Barely
Two Lengths in The Lead

New London, Conn, June 2S.-In a
race never excelled on the Thames
Yale's varsity crew last evening won
the great inter-university rowing event
of the year in the last half mile Of the
four-mile course by a scant two
lengths. The magnificent contest was
witnessed by thousands from observa-
tion trains, yachts and points of want
age along the banks. To Yale also fell
the honor of victory in the freshman
race. while Harvard takes consolation
in the fact that her varsity four walk
ed away from the Yale quartet hand
somely
The two minor races, with honCrs d.
vided. served only to whet the appe-
tites of the spectators. These contests
had resulted exactly as the experts
had predicted and some 10000 people
were impatient for the supreme event
Of the regatta.
The big race was rowed down
stream in the cool of the evening,
shortly after Z o'clock. The conditions
we're fairly favorable. A beautiful
start. with the two eights rowing
stroke for stroke. began a contest that
will never be forgotten by those who
witnessed II.
Harvard Immediately took the lead,
and her stalwart oarsmen retained it
for a mile and a half. At the two
mile flag Yale cut down the Harvard
advantage and drew ahead only to lose
again before a half mile had been trav-
eled. For still another half the Cam
bridge boys held on. The excitement
was intense.
Both crews by this time had dropped
TO an unusually slow stroke, at times
the rate being scarcely 80. Yale's en-
durance. however, was up to the stand
ard, and as the two shells approached
the three and a half mile flags the
Yale crew spurted magnihcently. Har-
ward herolcally responded, but it was
Yale's day. She took the lead, and not
only kept it, but drew away rapidly in
the last quarter mile until the finish
was reached, when Yale tore across
the line barely two lengths ahead, with
Harvard rowing manfully The vic
tory for Yale is due to the splendid
power of her oarsmen and the superb
generalship of Coxswain Chittenden.
With great foresight he refused to
push his men until the supreme mo-
ment. This care found his men ready.
The race was a hard one for Har-
ward to lose; a magnificent one for the
winners. The end found Goodell, the
bow oar in the Harvard shell, In a
state Of collapse. It was necessary to
lift him from his seat into the launch
In the Yale shell stroke Cameron, too,
was in distress, but he was able to help
himself to the Yale launch The 9TH
er oarsmen were all strong and in good
condition.
The freshmen contest was an easy
one for the Yale youngsters Harvard,
1904, being four and a half lengths to
the rear. Harvards four won with
marvellous ease by six full lengths.
No records were broken and time for
the varsity race was unusually slow.
probably because Of an unexpectedly
low stroke and the cross wind.
The official time for the varsity
race was: Yale, 1887; Harvard,
23:45. Freshman race: Yale, 1927 4-5;
Harvard, 1O:4S. Foar-oared race: Har-
ward, 11:49 1-5; Yale, 1909 1-5.
