Washington, July 1.-Comptroller of

thought the losses of the depositors
will be large. The bank owes its de-

it has capital of 100000, with n
surplus of 100000. The following
statement was made by Mr.. Dawes.
A recent examination of the bank showed
a serious condition OF affairs. On Saturday
Examiner Lynch telegraphed the comp
troller that the former report was sus-
tained in all particulars. and thereupon
the comptroller wired him as follows:

In accordance with the tenor OF
this dispatch, the comptroller has ap.
pointed f. j. Vaughan, national bank

the bank. The failure of the bank is
due to injudicious loans. 1t is not
thought that the loss to depositors
will be large.

At that time one of the most conspicu-
