Early yesterday afternoon the feet OF
the Rhode Island Yacht club arrived at
New London behind the strong northeast
gale that was blowing and a choppy sea.
The run from Thimble Islands was very
fast and full OF excitement TO the mem

ing the run except what came in short
fiurries. so that there was a fair de-
gree Of comfort experienced.
The storm yesterday prevented the
inter-club race planned as one OF the fea-
lures of entertainment by the Sachem's
Head Yacht club. but a delightful lunch

social affair. and IL was evident that Com
modore Peck and his associates had
spared no effort 10 make the entertain
ment Of their guests a thorough success

The club house is a handsome and COM

rocks at the extreme point Of Sachem's
Head. The Rhode Island club pennant,
hung over the table, was prominent
among the dozens OF yachting iiags and
pennants hung about the room.

LOOMS Resigns Positions
In the National
City Bank.
CALLED TO TESTIFY

New York, Jan. 13.-A. @. Loomis,
vice president and director of the Ma
tional City bank, this afternoon ten.
dered his resignation from both of his
official positions. The resignation will
be acted upon at the meeting of the
board of directors next Tuesday and
until then the bank officials consider
the matter one which is not a subject
for discussion in public statements.
Mr.. Loomis has given out an inter
view, however, In the course of which
he says that he does not wish his re-
cent connection with the defunct firm
of Monroe G Monroe, now under in.
vestigation, to reflect upon the bank
and he therefore prefers to sever his
connection with that institution.
Mr.. Loomis' resignation follows close
upon his unanimous reelection, on
Tuesday last. All that is known of
now was known to the board of direc,
tors then.
Announcement was made late this
afternoon that Mr.. Loomis would be
called to the witness stand in the
Monroe & Monroe bankruptcy hearing
on January 25 next. His testimony is
to disclose all he knows of the manip-
ulation of Montreal and Boston stock
by the Monroes.
The statement was also made today
that certain firm of brokers contem-
plates making Mr.. Loomis party to a
suit for the recovery of large sums
alleged to have been lost by virtue of
the manipulation of the stock men
toned and fairly reliable estimates
place the losses sustained by various
curb brokers in the Monroe failure
at around a quarter of a million dol
lars.
Testimony was given during the
bankruptcy hearings held so far to
the effect that George Munroe had
arranged for the over-certification of
the firms checks with Mr.. Loomis to
the extent of 100000 daily. This as.
sertion was made by Cameron Spear,
of the brokerage firm of Ward G. Co.,
and Mr.. Loomis has SO far persistent
ly declined to discuss this phase Of
the scandal.
President Stillman of the National
City bank, who has right along stood
by Mr.. Loomis, and who, in fact, was
the first to announce the reelection of
the vice president this evening de-
clined to discuss Mr.. Loomis' resig-
nation and It's reasons.

lack of sympathy with his effort to
get a college education.

Nevins disappeared, he drew from a
local bank all the money he had on
deposit-less than $40. He also at

cided he did not need 1t.
