Significance.
Washington, d. C., July S.-Secretary

EeAdoo, Of the treasury department
in a statement last night declared that
the general banking In Pitts burg, as
strong and sound, and that he expected
no further trouble as the result Of the
failure Of the Pittsburg First-Second
National bank
s'The failure Of the Pittsburg bank
is simply a sporadic case Of uusOund
banking and has no other Significance
the secretary said
Discrepancy in Report.
It has developed that one fact which
drew the critical attention and sUspi-
clOn Of the treasury department to the
banks condition was discrepancy Of
nearly S2,O9g,000 between the sworn
statement TO the controller Of the cur
rency as to the banks condition on
June 4, and what should have been a
true copy Of this report is published
by the bank in the newspapers Of
BltLSburg-
The report to the controller showed
assets and Liabilities aggregating $50
ySl.34l-l0 each, while as given to the
PitLsburg papers for publication the
bank placed these totals at SIS. 1O3,-
SS6-59. the Sl,S93,46O-I1 difference rep
resenung redlscOunts or borrowed
money Officials declared that this was
Illegal
Estimates based upon the last re-
port to the controller of the currency
indicate that the losses might reach
100000.
Protect DeDCsitOEss
After working for weeks TO prevent,
if possible, receiVership for the
First-SecOnd officials declare that they
gave up the attempt in despair only
after il became known that big depOs-
itOrs had heard rumors Of its precar-
iOus condition and had begun to with
draw their deposits In order TO accord
the little depOsitOrs equal protection,
the officials decided to place the in
sritutiOn under government control
Officials OF the Wilson administra-
ton disclaim responsibility for the
merger of the First and Second Ma
uOnal banks Of PittsburE. They de-
clare that the com binatiOn was caused
by the previous administration, and
although the amalgamatiOn was not
actually accomplished until March II,
secretary 1IcAdOO had nothing TO do
with it
During several years the First Ma
tiOnaI, previous TO the merger with
the Second National. had been under
surveillance of the government, sew
eral attempts. IL is alleged, having been
made TO merge IL with other banks
An attempt later on to consolidate
the Exchange National with the First
National brought forth protests from
minority stockholders Of the exchange
who recommended the abandonment Of
the effort.
