MUTUAL BANK
DEPOSITS HEAVY
Officials of New institution Ex-
pect Big Decrease in Num-
ber of Withdrawals.

Officials of the Mutual Bank of
Roseville, which opened yesterday,
are greatly elated today over the fact
that deposits are in excess of with
drawals, three to one. Clifford Mac
Evoy, president of the bank, this
afternoon declared that todays re-
ceipts probably will double those
taken in by the new bank yesterday.
General business conditions of the
new organization, according to it's
officers today, are better than ex-
pected. Patrons today showed a
tendency to deposit money, rather
than withdraw it, as was expected
would be the case after the recent
default in payments by the Roseville
Trust Company, which the new COM
pany succeeds.
When the doors of the new bank
closed last night, after the first days
business and the accounts balanced,
1t was found that $4,000 had been
taken in. while $4,000 was paid out
Speaking of the progress of the new
institution President MacEvoy said:
''It certainly is comforting to real
ize that this bank will go ahead from
now on. We were prepared for the
worst that could possibly happen.
That is, we had enough money on
hand, S35O,O00 all told. to pay off all
the accounts. From the time that
the bank opened yesterday morning
l could see that we would not have to
pay out more than we took in.
IAN day long / received the we'll
wishes of many men prominent in
business in this city and they all
assured me of their support"

pressed thsmselyes IN like manner.

Action by Board of
Works.

Thirty thousand tons of garbage is
now uncollected within the city linn
its. More than half this amount has
been standing on the curbs and side
walks for weeks awaiting collection.
These statements were made today by
General Superintendent of Works
Charles T. Shipman They were cor
roborated by Deputy Chief Engineer
James c. Hallock.
Mr.. Shipman said today that the
garbage situation had gone beyond
him. He declared he had called the
office of Joseph Marrone. the city
scavenger contractor repeatedly. He
received no satisfaction. He has re-
ferred the matter to the Board of
Street and Water Commissioners. The
board, 1t is understood, will take def
mite action at it's meeting tomorrow.
Charles P. Gilen, chairman of the
street committee of the Works Board,
today declared that immediate action
by the board was necessary. He said
he is having a resolution prepared by
the city law department which he will
present at tomorrow meeting.
The resolution provides that a. fine
of $500 day be imposed upon the city
scavenger until normal conditions are
resumed. In addition it also provides
that the city employ men and wagons
to collect the garbage and refuse and
charge the expense to Marrone's ac-
count. The contractor will be held
liable for the additional expense of
the garbage collection by the city over
the amount the city would have paid
Marrone for doing the work.

PNEUMONIA CAUSES.
PHYSICIANS DEATH
DR.. John PringIe, of East New
ark, Was Stricken With
Malady Last Thursday.

DR.. John Pringle. siXty-eight years
old, one of the best known physicians
in this section, died early today at
his home, 40 Sherman avenue, East
Newark. Death was caused by pneu-
monia, which was brought on, it is
believed, by cold contracted while
the physician was making a call a
week ago. News of the death was a
distinct shock to the large host of
friends of the physician in the West
Hudson towns.
DIR. Pringle felt the first effects of
what proved to be the fatal illness
last Thursday He told his family
the symptoms were those of pneu-
monia. Physicians who were called
differed with the stricken doctor. but
he insisted he was right in his dag
nosis.
Sunday night. when the attending
physician called, Dr. Pringle declared
he was sure he was suffering from
pneumonia. The visiting doctor ad-
mitted at that time there were symp-
toms. "I viii be dead in less than
four days. DIR. Pringle replied.
DR.. Pringle was born in Glasgow.
Scotland He came to this country
almost thirty years ago, and lived in
the West Hudson section since coming
here. He was a graduate of the Uni
versity of Glasgow, and was a mem
ber of the faculty of physicians and
surgeons of the institution. He was
instrumental a few years ago in hav-
ing the East Newark Board of
Health created. He was the first
president of the board. and held that
office at tha tlns Of bis death
