Details Not Given Out.

The details of the arrangement
reached are not generally known. as
the statement that is given out is
merely to the effect that an under
standing has been reached which Is en-
tirely satisfactory to both parties.
1t Is said. however. that of the entire
holding of Col Staples of the stock Of the
bank, aggregating more than twelve hum
dred shares, he has disposed of about one
thousand shares to the management of
the bank. There is nothing definite as to
the price to be paid Col. Staples, but 1t Is
said to be less than $500 per share. which
was quoted as what was paid in some re-
cent transactions in this stock.
At any rate. the business OF the Co
lumbia National Bank will be continued
as usual. and by the same officers and
directors. There IL no probability that
the annual meeting Of the stockholders.
in January next, will bring about any
change in these particulars. It Is stated
that an application for charter for the
National Exchange Bank. which has been
favorably acted upon by the controller OF
the Treasury, as we'll as the property

In other words, an arrangement has
been made which is entirely satisfactory
to both the management of the bank and
Mr.. Staples. They are not only going to
continue their business relations. but 1t
may be said that both have q better
