THE STATE SAVINOS BANK. The Directors Decide to Wtod Up IU Buslueas—The Concern Undoubtedly Solevnt -Depositors Will be FaitHii Fall WUhln Six Months. The managers of the Slate savings Lank, an exhibit of the resources and liabilities of which made by savings bank examiner Hingham was published in this jiaper.yesterday. came to the conclusion to-day to /nit l u-ines.-. and filed a petition with "the auditor of state. The l*ank is in every war solvent, but being unable to find profitable investments of money, no sufficient securities offering, and being unable to continne the dividends it has been making to depositors and to pay the expenses of management, a consultation of the officers was held and the action indicated above was resolved upon, fn the opinion Of the trustees the bank surplus is greater than was shown in the report of the examiner, and will amount to nearly or guile $2,000., Depositors will at onee receive 25 per cent, of their deposits, and w ithin 90 days 35percent, more will be }*aid, the entire indebtedness to be cancelled within sixmonths. All deposits made since December 31 are considered special and are held on call, never having )>een put in the accounts of theliahk. During the next six months the total funning expenses, rent and clerk hire, etc., will be less than $700. The following is thej&tition pre?eated by the trustees to the audidw of state: Office of State SAxates Bas k, » IsniAjfapolis, Indiana.) Hon. E. Henderson, Auditor trf the state of Indiana.

Dear Sir,—The trustee* of the State savings bank, believiug that the l>est interest* of Us depositors can be aerved by gradually winding up the same, and whereas the said l>ank is solvent and doing buv iness according to law, but under the pressure of the times brought alxmt by influenees beyond our control we are disinclined to declare a dividend and therefore with a view to the gradual winding up of said bank, and »o prevent a run on the same, and fntloss. it sacrifice of the aasets thereof

Avditou or State’s Ofpick, > f.NDiANAPoui), January 8, 1878. ) Believing that the best tale rests of the depositors of the State Savings bank will be served by granting the foregoing petition of the trustees, I" hereby give my consent to the same, in conformity with the law above referred to. Given under my hand and official seal. E. Henderson, Auditor of .State. The opinion of the directors that dejiositors can be paid in full as soon as the assets can be realized on—probably within six months— is confirmed by several gentlemen who recently examined the affairs of the institution, and who consider the assets <Jf the bank in

a good shape. ITS history. .

The Slate savings bank was organized on the 18th day of November, 1871, with the following trustees: Herman Lieber, A. S. Walker, T. I'. Ryan, M. it. Landis, William Hannatnan, Francis Smith. Alfred Harrison, Charles Maver, James Frank, Frederick Ostermever, Frederiik Fahnley and R. S. Foster. Mr. Alfred Harrison was the first president, with James M. Ray as secretary and treasurer. The bank began business, occupying a part of the room of the Meridian National bank, moving torite present location, No. 56 North Pennsylvania street, last March. On June 13tb, 1872, Mr. Harrison resigned his positions as president and trustee of the bank, and Charles Mayer was chosen president in his. stead. January 5th, 1874, Mr. Mayer,’having resigned, William Hannaman was made president, holding the position until September 28th, 1877, when Mr. Hannaman having tendered his resignation; it was accepted, and Aquilla Jones. sr., chosen to fill his place. Dr. P. II. Jameson has heen a director but little more than a year, having been appointed on the 16th of November, 1876. John M. Judah was made a director a short time before, and Aquilla Jones, David Coffin and Henry Coburn were made directors September 5th, 1R7T, and Arthur L. Wright, July 21st, 1877. The other directors—Fahnley, Smith and Bradshaw—

are not so recent.

Dr. Jameson who with Messrs. Jone«1 Coffin, Wright and Coburn came on the board within a few months was interviewed this afternoon. The doctor wants it distinctly understood that the bauk is neither broken, suspended nor insolvent. Its directors hare simply elected to close the bank, as provided in section 17 of the act under which it was organized. He further says that the hank will pay out in full. Mr. Juktf M. Judah, one of the trustees of the State savings bank, wishes depositors to be warned of the sharpers who will lie in wait to buy their accounts at a discount. The

bank will pay dollar for dollar. A CARD FROM MR. BINGHAM.

To the Editor of The Indianapolis News: The secretary and treasurer and bookkeeper of the State savings bauk appear in a card in the .Sentinel, this morning, tn which they state “that the proper percentage has been regularly carried to the credit of the surplus fund, as the books of the bauk will fully

show.”

In my report of the examination of the State savings Uink, addressed to the auditor of state, I say: ‘'The bu.linen* ui the bank baa been eondin-tert a* theslaw requires, except tn not carrying to the surplus fqnd the proper percentage of the earning*.” In my report to the auditor of state upon the condition of the Indianajiolts savings bank, I say: The law limits the surplus fund to 15 per cent, upon the deposits, but it is made the duty of the trustees to res- rve and set aside from the gross amount of gains as a surplus fund, to be invested as its other funds, until it shall reach the aggregate of 10 per cent, upon the whole amount of iis deposits. I think tills Isa wise provision, and regard it an error on the part of the trustees that it has not been carried out, as it would provide for losses that have occurred or may occur by bad debts and the shrinkage of securities, and make divideos more certain to depositors. Now what says the law organizing savings banka. 1 quote: - - Sec. 28. It shall he the dutv of the trustees of every savings 1*nk to reserve and set aside from the gross amount of gains or profits of the institution not less than one half of one per cent, per annum on the deposits, to be held and invested as provided for in the act, as a surplus fuxd to meet any’contingency in U« btisines, until such surplus shall be equal to ten per cent, upon the amount of its deposits; and it shall lie lawful to accumulate such surplus until the same shall equal fifteen per cent, upon the whole amount of deposits so held* In my rejxirt of the condition of both banks I had no intention whatever to reflect, in the slightest degree, ujion the integrity of the management of either institution. No doubt there nas been carried, in both institutions, to the credit of the surplus fund, not less than one-half of one per cent, of the gross amount of gains or profits, find no doubt some more. My object in calling attention, to the section

In no single instance has the supreme court reversed or in any way interfered with any cases from the Marion criminal court during the period named. Usurious Interest. Judge Gresham, of the U. S. district court, decided to-day the national bank cases, involving a construction of section 5189, revised statute. He holds that where a national bank has reserved Usurious interest out of loan made by it on a note, or has usurious interest included in such note, if the borrower, in a suit at any time upon the note, plead the usury, the bank loses or forfeits the entire interest reserved or included in the note; that if the borrower actually pay but of his pocket usurious interest to a national bank on a note, he may, in a suit upon the note, recoup double the amount of interest so paid, at any time within two .years after such payment, but he can not in such suit recover double the amount of interest paid, if the usuriou| interest was paid more than two years bef ire the filing of the plea; or the.borrower, who has paid usurious iuterst, may, at any time within two years after such payment, recover double the amount of the entire interest paid in an action in the nature of an action of debt; but such action is barred by the two-year’s limitation.

The bust of Morton, by Mahoney, the local sculptor, has been placed at the disposal of the management. The most interesting feature, how’eter, will be the work of the pupils of the art school during the past quarter, illustrative of the progress made by them. Patrick Moriarty tried to move the mayor this morning by addressing him a speech in in pure Irish. Patrick would make his for-^ tune on the stagfi. He has a most perfect Irish mug and his dress is beyond descrintion or imitation. As he stood before the bar pleading his case, with hands and arms flying like a windmill, and hi$ bob-tailed coat quivering with the excitement of its owner, tlie mayor, the prosecutor, policemen and audience burst into a roar of laughter. His honor cut the oration short and assessed a $5

fine.

Not more titan one-third of the persor

rested by the city pojjce ever stand trial, ,, ferring to forfeit tsueir bail. The forfeitures will number 1,500 per year, and as the largest bail taken is $15, it would be safe to say that $25,000 tit us passes into the hands of the marshal, by whom it is divided up among the officers, prosecutor, marshal and court, when the law. expressly requires that such forfeit-

ures be turned into the public treasury.

Three bankruptcy petitions were filed In the United States court to-day. Muir & Foley, fancy dry goods dealers of this city ascend tke flume for $5,000; assets light. James C. Martin, a dry goods and shoe merchant of Franklin, Indiana, fileshis petition, lutbilities $11,000, assetts $10,000, mostly in open accounts. Washington White, of Liberty, Union county, succumbs for a small amount. Pat. Ronftn was arrested this afternoon on a grand larceny charge. Owing to the defective system of keeping the station house record, and the indifference or wooden-henJ-edness of the immediate management, no information touching the extent or nature of

his offense could be ascertained.

ersons ar-

pre-

of the law I have quoted,'was that it should be made more definite. As I remarked in my reports, there is nojtersonal responsibility on the part of the managers of savings l«nks. and in my opiukm it is the intent of* the law that there should be accumulated from their gross earnings of at least a surplus of ten per cent, upon its deposits to provide for “any contingency in their busmens,” which should take the place of the personal responsibility of the trustees. If the savings banks in .Indiana had carried out the spirit of the law and had set aside from the gross earnings a surplus land until

A Place for Consumptives. A health resort for consumptives, now coming into great fame, is Davos, an inland valley of the Orisons, in Switzerland, 5,150 feet above the sea, about four miles long. In the winter the atmosphere is so still, clear and sunshiny that patients can spend a great part of most days sitting out in the open air. The hotels are well built and warmed. Among the inhabitants no lung lesion has ever, so far as is known, passed into a degenerative or phthisical stage. Davos is little known to English and Americans, but hundreds of Germans and Swiss resort to it. Very little medicine is given, but red wine is prescribed a' of positive value. . TennysonI as a Snob. It is related as actually true, that a young lady, recently walking in the country lanes near Tennyson’s home, met a gentlemen who, at her approach, deliberately took out a handkerchief and Spread it over his face. Having had no intention of staring at the stranger, she marvelled at the evident measure of defence and hurried past, not without trepidation; but the daughter of Eve, of course, turned round before she was out of sight, and beheld Mr. Tennyson going on nis way unveiled.
