of the City National Bank, will

of the City National Bank, will be
cashier of the new bank.
8S To Have Strong Directory.
1.-THE directorate will number 80, 10
to be selected from the list of direct
ors of the two banks which it is pro-
posed to merge with the new institu-
ton and 10 to be chosen by the men
who will join with Mr.. Hutton in put
ting up the 100000 of capital for the
new bank.
Mr.. Hutton admitted yesterday that
the plan above outlined is under con-
sideration and that propositions look
ing to the carrying out of the pro
posed merger and reorganization
have been submitted to the two banks.
]. c. Ottinger of the mississippi
Valley Bank also said that such a
proposition has been submitted infor-
mally and that it has been considered
but not officially in any way.
w. H. Kyle of the City National
said that nothing could be said at
present as to the matter, and that he
preferred that no publication be made
of it.
From other gentlemen connected
with the bank. however it was learn
ed that the proposition has been in
formally considered by members of
the board of directors and by a COM
mittee appointed for that purpose, but,
as in the case of the mississippi Val
ley Bank, no official action has been
taken upon it.
If the plans under consideration are
carried out the new bank will be one
of the strongest in the city.
The Mississippi Valley Bank &
Trust Company has capital of $780,
600, surplus of $4,000 and the semi
annual statement on Jan. showed
that there were also undivided profits
then Of $1S,413.61. The bank had de-
posits then amounting to $46O,37554,
and total resources amounting to
$S1S,7s9.15.
The City National Bank has capt.
tai of 100000, surplus of $4,000, and
Pine Bluff daily graphic. (Pine Bluff, Ark.) 1893-1942, 1914-03-28

on Jan. 1 had undivided profits of
$S,751.22. The deposits on Jan. 1
were $1,247 ,523.74 and the total as
sets $1,947, 9O9.O3.
The combined assets of the two
banks was on the same date, there
fore, $2,666,69S.1S, their combined
capital and surplus $597 ,164S3, and
their combined deposits $1,7O7 ,S99.2S.
1t has been estimated by Mr.. Hut
ton of a new national bank, to take
over the assets of the failed Mercan-
tile Bank, that the bank should have
capital of not less than 100000,
and that it would begin business with
deposits of not less than 100000, if it
should buy the assets and good will
of the Mercantile. While no names
have been made public, it is known
that number of the men who were
interested in the Mercantile Bank as
stockholders or directors have agreed
to take stock in the proposed new
bank, and several of them will be
members of the new directorate,
whether the pending merger is car
ried out or not.
Strong Men Among Directors.
Mr.. Hutton, while declining to
make public any of the details Of the
organization CT the new bank or of
the proposed merger and consolida-
ton with the two other banks men
toned, said that he had his plans so
we'll developed that he is confident of
being able to carry them out within
the next 80 days, and that he expects
to have the new sank organized and
ready for business by May 1.
The trend of affairs in banking cir
cles has been toward larger banks,
with increased capital, rather than to-
ward the organization of small banks,
and Mr.. Hutton has said since his
brief stay in Memphis that, as he
viewed the banking situation here, it
is in splendid shape except that, in
his opinion, the city needs more bank
ing capital.
