First Second National Has Been Gen. eralIy Considered Unusually Strong. Crowds Storm Doors, but Police Maintain Order-PittshurGh Clearing House Takes Charge of Situation.
 The F1rst-Second National bank Of Pittsburgh has been ordered closed by the acting comptroller of the currency and will not open for business.
 The comptroller's order followed N meeting of the Pittsburgh clearing house committee. at which plans were discussed for saving the bank. No decisive action was taken. The gov ernment. it was understood. was co operating with the clearing house com mittee, but the closing made it clear that no solution of the problem satis factory to the treasury department could be found
 The following notice was posted on the doors of the bank. which Is at Fifth avenue and Wood street:
 This bank closed by direction of the act ing comptroller of the currency and IS now in the hands of the national bank examiners. Samuel M Ham and Sherrill Smith. T F. KANE.
 Acting Comptroller.
 The bank was closed following tn. report of special bank examiners. who arrived in Pittsburgh about a month ago. and who finished their work Il week ago.
 A big crowd of depositors gathered at the doors of the bank when the news of the closing was announced and semipanic in the neighborhood followed. The excitement was so great that the police were called out to keep order
 Differences of long standing with the treasury department concerning the character and value of certain as. sets of the former First National bank of Pfttsburgh-merged with the Second National last March-are behind the trouble.
 The Pittsburgh Clearing House asso citation has taken charge of the situa. ton generally and announces that nc further trouble is expected.
 The First-Second National bank of Pittsburgh has been generally consid cred as one of the strongest institutions in that section. Some time ago the Second National bank took over the First National. the latter not being con sidered an exceedingly strong bank The capital of the two banks was $1.. SO0,0O0. with a reported surplus and profit of S2.0OO.O00 The deposits were about $50 100000.
