OPPOSITION TO JESUP.
Movement to Place Eastern Trust
Company in Liquidation.

At she annual meeting to-day OF the stock
holders OF the Eastern Trust Company test
VIII be made Of the comparative strength OF
the present management and Of a party who are
DESTROYS of having the company placed in
liquidation. There is no question whatever OF
the absolute soundness of the institution. fact
which is demonstrated by the statement of the
conpsny's condition Of December 81 last
which showed deposits Of S1.270.637. against
which the company held New-York City bonds
OF the book value of more than 81 100000, cash
on hand and IN banks of 1851 .O54. and outstand
ing loans amounting to 81. S23. 666. The object
ing stockholders point to the statement Of Janu-
sry L 1903. showing a profit OF about $4,000.
and the statement of January l, 1904. which
showed a profit of about $4,000, and urge that.
as the company has in the last twelve months
ecrned only 81 900 net, IL would be the better
course TO liqudate the business Of the institu-
ton, releasing 10 the stockholders the amounts
respectively invested by them in IT.
Accordingly, they have sent TO the stock
holders proxies IN the names Of w. G. Park,
A A Lisman and Charles Kimberley. who are
expected TO vote large amount of the stock In
favor Of the election OF directors committed TO
the policy Of liquidation. The proxies or the
party now in control run in the names or VIII
lam r. Porter, Thomas Keck and = Crlsty
Mead. II is understood that the management
is assured OF the support OF fully 60 per cent
Of the stock.
The Eastern Trust Company began business
IN July. 1902 and has S1,000O00 capital stock
and surplus and undivided profits of about $780,
600. Its president. Charles NJ. Jesup said last
night:
AS 10 the attacks made upon the management
OF the company have not one word 10 say. A
special meeting of the stockholders will be held
at i O'Clock tomorrow afternoon TO act upon a
proposition reduce the number or directors
from thirty TO twenty-one. At . o'clock the
stockholders viii mold their annual meeting for
the election of directors and for the TRANSACTION
of such other business as may come before
them. Under the laws OF the State the stock
holders cannot take action upon q proposition
FOR liQuidating the business of a trust company.
Such action Is solely in the province Of the
board OF directors.
II will be remembered thGS last April the Van
Norden Trust Company made offer for the
stock of the Eastern Trust Company. Nothing
came OF the negotiations however.
