OF the Volcano House. there were tao
explosions at th- volcano and Kilauca

no further action at Kilauea. though
the volcano was stIIl spouting forth
smoke and steam In huge volumes. He
looks for an early outbreak.
The Mauna Loa brought back a few

The BANK
Comptroller Calls
For a New
Election.
FIRST NATIONAL
AFFAIRS OPENED
instructions for Another Gathering
Of Stockholders Said to
Have Been Sent.
Especial to The Advertiser.)

aN JASHINGTON, d. c., May "a
w There has been startling devel-
opment in the affairs of the
First National Bank of Hawaii at Ho-
nolulu. 1t has leaked out here that a
new election for directors of the insti-
tuition has been ordered by the office Of
the Comptroller OF the Currency.
According to the information avail
able, under date of May Il President
Brown of the bank was directed to i'm
mediately call meeting OF the stock
holders for the purpose OF electing di-
rectors. 1t is known that the Office Of
the Solicitor for the Treasury has had
under consideration several staterRnts
concerning the last annual meeting of
the bank, and that decision was sent
feet that the meeting of January IA
was not properly held.
The instructions of Deputy and Act
ing Comptroller W. B. Ridgley were
mandatory upon the officers OF the
bank TO proceed without delay to call
the meeting of stockholders, as under
rulings of the courts OF Hawaii the
ground was cut from under the feet Of
the president of the bank in the mat
ter OF his rulings as 10 the majority
of the stock.
1t is understood further that Bank
Examiner Knight OF San Francisco has
been directed to visit Honolulu and see
that the Instructions Of the Comptroller
of the Currency are carried out. Rep
resentatives of the SeIigmans of New
York have been in close consultation
with the Comptroller recently and 1t is
understood strong influence has been
brought to bear.
President Cecil Brown was asked by
a reporter for The Advertiser yester-
day If he had received any informa-
ton from the office OF the Comptroller
of the Currency, in line with the above.
He said emphatically that he had not
had any instructions: that he didn't
know anything about it."
Colonel G.. w. Macfarlane, who has
had TO do with the affairs of the bank
in that he has represented the inter-
ests of the Anglo-Californian Bank of
San Francisco. the parent body, and
presented the proxies at the meeting
of January II, which were ruled out OF
order by the president. refused to dis
cuss the matter.
The belief of people here is that there
must have been exerted at Washington
some strong influence to bring about
such action on the part of the Comp
tro!Ier.
