ANNUAL MEETING.
Stockholders OF the Wilmington
savfng. and Trust Company Met
festerday-Bix Increase In De-
posits and business the past Year.

The stockholders OF the Wilmington
Savings and Trust Company held their
annual meeting yesterday at their
banking house on Princess street.
Major W. F. Robertson was called to
the chair,
President J. W. Norwood submitted
the following report:
During the past year your company
has opened LOSS accounts with new
depositors. Total deposits have in
creased to s131. ASA. The company has
loaned exceeding s., ,900, 900 during the
year. The greatest care is exercised
in the selection OF loans, and only the
strongest securities accepted. No loss
has been made during the year and no
loan is carried, which could not be
sold without recourse on the bank at
cost under normal conditionh. The
stock in your company will now sell
readily at exceeding three times the
par value. The annual dividends of 6
per cent. on the par value appear TO be
a very small return on the market
value. The management bears in mind
that the chief object of the organizers
of this company was to encourage saw
ings IN our community. and have
therefore put aside a larger surplus to
secure depositors than any other saw
ingS bank in the state. This policy
must be in the interest OF the share
holder, as we'll as depostor, from the
fact that stock in your company will
sell much higher than the stock in any
other bank in the state.

the time. She knocked the sergeant to

discolored the face of Lieutenant F. X

The police force of 100 men have been

possible that the four additional COM

of artillery will be called out in the
morning to take charge Of the city.
There is no settlement of the strike
in sight, both sides standing pat to
