Splendid Recovery Of Banks
Forced to Close by Panic

New York. June 3O.-Eight months
after the passing Of the financial
troubles of last fall, the deLoSitors OF
| the dozen bank and trust companies
which closed their doors have received
their money at least in part, or in the
case of the few which have not yet re-
opened or have gone into liquidation
are about TO receive it.
The Hamilton bank, which was one
of the first of the institutions in which
the attorney generals department
interviewed to reopen, has already an
ticipated all of its deferred payments,
which under the original plan were to
have extended into November
The Knickerbockcr Trust company,
which was the largest of the suspend
ed institutions and reOpencd like
most of the others under deferred
payment plan, anticipated the first two
deferred payments on June |, paying
then 10 per cent. OF which one-half,
under the original plan, would not
have been paid until September.
The Oriental bank, which was one
of the four to close its doors In Febru-
ary, paid its depositOrs in full prelim-
mary to liquidation. or the other
three which then suspended, the re-
ceiver of the National Bank Of North
America has paid depositors 80 per
dent in dividends and the receiver Of
the New Amsterdam National has
paid IS per cent.
The Mechanics and Traders deposi-
tors have practically agreed to a de-
ferred payment plan, which will be
put in force when the percentage of
asserting depositors is brought up to
90.
Of the Brooklyn banks which closed,
the Jenkins Trust company, reorgan-
lied under the name Of the Lafayette
Trust company, has anticipated pay
ments; The Borough bank and the
Home bank have reopened, and the
Brooklyn bank and the international
Trust company have reorgan.zed.

c. H. Speers, OF Denver, general
passenger agent Of the Colorado Mid.
land railway, reports conditions en-
couraging for the fruit growers of the
western slope, where he has been on a
tour of inspection. He concludes that
the damage done by the early frosts
of last spring was not as disastrous as
was at first supposed. and he esti-
mates that this years crop will exceee
that of 1907 by at least 30 per cent.
He reports that the peaches at Pali-
sades were only slightly damaged and
in places where it was thought the
entire crop was ruined the yield is
50 heavy that the fruit men are TO com
pelled to thin out their trees. In all
the country between Grand Junction
and Palisades, he says, there will bd
more than an average crop. The rail-
roads OF that district are getting
ready for the movement Of this great
fruit crop.
