SLIPSHOD BANKING.
Oriental Examiners Charge Gross Mis-
 conduct in Management.

New York, March 5.-Misconduct of the affairs of the Oriental bank, which is in the hands of receivers, is charged in a report written by exam iners employed by the receivers and made public to-day. The report says:
 "The bank has been conducted in a most slipshod loose, unbusinesslike manner, and has been permeated with irregularities, frauds and crime. Within the last two years the admin istration of its affairs has been char acterized by several apparent defal- cations, forgeries, perjury and other violations of the statutes of this state.
 Sums aggregating considerable amounts have been charged off to profit and loss and the offenders all lowed to escape the penalty of the law, apparently because they were employees of the bank, whom the off, cers were afraid to prosecute for fear of exposure of greater or more seri- ous irregularities or violations of law on the part of those higher up in the administration of the banks affairs. ''
 The examiners also alleged that large loans were made by the direc- tors of the Oriental bank at the re- quest of some of their number who were also directors of the banks in Brooklyn which have since failed, and that some of these loans to the extent of several hundred thousand dollars were charged off, while other loans against the same men were counted as good
