‘NATIONAL BANK FAILS;
Chestnut Street Institution. in
Philadelphia Closed.
IN HANDS 0F EXAMINER
Much Surprise at the Suspension—
City Funds Amounting to $289,854
and State Funds Aniounting to.
$225,000 in the Bank. .
Philadelphia, Dec. 24.—The doors oli
the Chestnut Street National Bank
were closed yesterday morning by di-
rection of National Bank Examiner
Hardt. Its affairs are .now in the
hands of the‘Bank Examiner.
The following notice was posted on.
the door of the bank:
“The Chestnut Street National Bank
is closed for business, and is in the
hands of the National Bank Exam-
iner. WILLIAM M. HARDT,
“Examiner.”
Little Excitement.
A crowd of depositors soon gathered
about the door, but there was no es-
pecial excitement, and, as a general
rule, after each had learned the na-
ture of the notice on the door he moved
away and his place in the crowd would
be taken by others anxious to learn
something regardi‘g the situation.
The bank has at all times held a
good reputation, but it has been known
for some time that its business, and
necessarily its profits, had fallen off
considerably. The suspension, how-
ever, was a great surprise, especially
in view of the high standing of its
officers.
William M. Singerly is its president,
and Isaac Cooper vice—president. The
bank was started in 1887 on a capital
of $500,000, With Robert E. Pattison as
president. When the latter became
Governor of Pennsylvania in 1891 Mr.
Singerly succeeded him as president of
the bank.
Trust Company Closed.
The Chestnut Street Trustand Sav-
ings Fund Company, the officers of
which are identical with those of the
bank, and the offices being located' in the
same building, was also closed fo1
business to-day, but to what extent the
trust company is involved in the
bank’s affairs has not yet been an-
nounced.

A City Depository.
The bank was a city depository, and
there were city funds there to the
amount of $289,854. The State of Penn-
sylvania also had on deposit with the
bank on Dec. 1, $225,000, acc01 .1111" to
the ofiicial statement of State Treas-
urer Haywood, issued on that date.
The bank was also a depository of
the National Government, but the Gov-
ernment is protected by holding $100,—
000 United States bonds as security.
It is said that the bank holds the
funds of the city police and firemen’s
pension fund, the 'school teachers’ pen-
sion and annuity fund and deposits of
the Fairmount Park Commission,
which latter includes bequests for the
park improvement.
STATEMENT OF MR. ECKELS.
Failure
and Paper Mill Securities. -
Washington, Dec. 24.—Comptrolle” of
the Currency Eckels says that the
failure of the Chestnut Street Nation-
al Bank of Philadelphia was primarily,
due to the shrinkage in value of the
bonds and notes of the. Singerly Pulp
and Paper Mills, located at Elkton,
Md. The capital of the bank is $500,-
000, and at the present time its de-
posits aggregate about $1,700_,000, and
its surplus about,$150,000. Mr. Eckels
has been in Philadelphia several times
recently, trying to make arrangements
by which the pulp, and paper mills se-
curities could be taken out of the as-
sets of the bank and preferred stock of
the Philadelphia Record Company sub-
stituted. By this and certain other
changes Mr. Eckels hoped to put the
bank in first-class condition.
Up to 5 o’clock Wednesday night it
was thought. that the plan would be
adopted, but at that time a hitch oc-
curred which rendered suspension nec-
essary. When the pulp and paper
they Were regarded by every one as
first class, but since that time paper
has fallen in price from ten cents a
pound to less than two cents, and the
securities have depreciated in propor-
tion. Mr. Eckels said there was not
the‘least suspicion of any wrong-doing
on the part of. any one connected with
the bank, and he still had strong hopes
of arranging for the voluntary liquida-
tion of the bank’s affairs without the
expense incident to‘ithe appointment of
a receiver.
Mr. Eckels expressed the belief that
the bank ultimately would pay every
dollar it owes.
Hopes to Pay In Full.
Philadelphia. Dec. 24. —— Presidént
Singerly last night said to a reporter:
“We are at work trying to secure the
indebtedness‘of the bank. with a View
of going into voluntary liquidation and
paying depositors dollar for doll-ax. ”

First Pack Train Oil:
Cheyenne, Wyo., Dec. 24.——Orders are
received by the quartermaster of the
Eighth United States Infantryto have
the army pack train of the Department
of the Platte, stationed here, leave for
Alaska at the earliest possible moment.
The pack train is in charge of Chief
Packer Tom Mooney. He will have the
entire outfit, consisting of ten expert
packers and eighty trained and tried
pack mules, on the cars to-day, ready
to start. The destination of the pack
train is Taiya.

The lilondike Gospel Band.
Pittsburg, Dec. 24.—The Klondike
Gospel Band of seven members, which
left New York City Nov. 8 on an over-
land mareh to the Alaskan gold fields
to establish there a rescue mission and
hospital, have arrived safely in this
city. They traversed the entire States
of New Jersey and Pennsylvania on
foot. At the close of each day’s tramp,
covering a distance of from twenty to
twenty—five miles, they have held Gos-
pel services, and their reception every- '
where along thegline was surprisingly
cordial. School houses or churches
were freely offered for their use, and
crowded audiences were the rule.
FAVORS FOR THE TRAVELLERS.
The Canadian Minister of Customs
\Villing‘ to Help Americans.
Ottawa, Dec. 24.—The Minister of
'Customs has received a letter from the
Secretary of the Treasury at Washing-
ton inquiring if travelers on the way to
the Alaskan gold fields by way of the
Lynn Canal and the Yukon will have
bonding privileges for their goods pass-
ing through Canadian territory, and
has replied that it was the desire of the
Canadian Government to afford every
possible facility for the convenience of
those using Canadian territory to
reach Circle City or other points in
Alaska
At present, however, owing to the
great distance between Lake Bennett
and such places as Circle City,. about
7,000 miles’, it would be impossible to
keep track of the goods, but as soon
as responsible transportation compa-
nies were doing business a bond could
be taken from them and the object ac-
complished in that way.
WARNER GETS FlFTEEN YEARS.
John Conway’s Abductor Sentenced
to 'I‘erln in. Clinton Prison.
Albany, Dec. 24.—Albert S. XVarner,
the kidnapper of John Conwaykwas
yesterday afternoon sentenced to a
term of fifteen years in Clinton prison.
Warner was arraigned .in the Trial
Term of the Supreme Court before Jus—
tice Chester this morning. He plead-
ed guilty after a consultation with Dis-
trict Attorney Burlingame, and it was
announced that he would be sentenced
at 3 o’clock.
Warner was brought into court, and
when asked why the sentence of the
court should not be passed upOn him
he made a statement in which he said
that he knew nothing about the kid-
napping until twelve hours after the
child had been stolen. He warned
Blake, he said, that the plan would
not work and advised that the child be
surrendered, but Blake induced him to
take charge of the boy. This, said
Warner, covered his own connection
with the ease, and he added that his
only mistake was in getting mixed up
in an affair with which he had had
nOthing to do at its inception.
Fourth-Class Postmastcrs.
Fourth-class postmasters have been
appointed as follows:

India Wants Gold Standard.
Calcutta, Dec. 24.—The Bengal Cham-‘
ber of Commerce has sent an address
to the Government urging that the
time has arrived to adopt the gold
standard. The address points out that
it is four years since the mints were
closed, leaving India without a curren-
cy system, asserting that the suspense
is harmful to trade. and urging the
Government to disclose any measures
which it may have in contemplation.
Fltzslnunon s’ Ankle Spruined.
Chicago, Dec. 24.—Robert Fitzsim—
mons had just finished taking a bath
and was in his bare feet, when his
4—year—old boy suddenly threw open the
bathroom door. Fitz's tight foot was

Phi‘adclphia, Dec. 24.—The Pro-'55
publishes a sensational letter written
to a resident of this city by "a distin—
guished resident” of Havana'whose
name is withheld for obvious reasons.
The’ letter says in part:
“You know that the policy of Gen.
Blanco has always been a combination
of bribery and assassination. You will
not be surprised, therefore, at what is
to follow. The information has been
given to me by a. Cuban who, owing
to the autonomist force, holds a posi-
tion in the councils of the Captain-
General.
A Spanish Spy.
“The friend tells me that Dr. Congos-
to has several schemes in store, but
the most important ones, those that
Will give you a clearer insight into the;
methods of paeification that the Span-
iards intend, are the following:
“Dr. Congosto has sent an emissary
to New York. I do not know his
name. He is 'a tall man, with full
beard, black eyes and a marked Span—
ish accent, though I am not sure of
his nationalit . He has probably
started already for New York, where
he hopes to join one of the filibustering’
expeditions and reach the army under
Gomez. He is to find out the depots
of arms and the hospitals. When an
occasion presents itself he is to murder
Gen. Gome'z. His recompense for all
these services will be some thousands
of dollars.
“My trouble is to understand where
they will get the money. '
A Cruel Alternative.
“The second scheme is with reference
to overtures to be made to those fight-
ing in the field for Cuban liberty.
“You know as well as I do the old
man, Jose Roban, and you remember
as well as I do that in the former up-
risings he showed himself to be a
Spaniard of the Spaniards. Now, his
son Luis is the leader commanding the
insurgent brigade in Sagua. For this
crime the father was expatriated and
sent from Sagua to Havana, where he
now resides. Dr. Cognosto knov“. that
Gen. Gomez has issued a proclamation
ordering every leader to see that all
emissaries who, may present them-
selves with propositions of peace that
are not based on the absolute inde-
pendence of the island shall be sen-
tenced to death. He further adds that
all infractions of this order shall be
considered treason. Now, Dr. Cognos—
to has conceived the idea of sending
the father to the. son with propositions
looking towards autonomy, thus plac-
ing the son in the position of either
shooting his father or being himself
declared a traitor. The poor old man
refused. but I know not how long he
may withstand the pressure that is be-
ing brought to bear on him.
The Last Scheme.
“Dr. Congosto is endeavoring to se-
cure the services of a prominent man
in the United States. This prominent
person is to come here, and on his re—
turn to .the States is to declare that
autonomy is an accomplished fact, that
peace is firmly established and other
foolish ' things. ’
“As if this could alter the real state
of affairs: and as if Consul-General
Lee were not lie-1 e to tell the truth.
And, by the way. I \eiy much fear that
if this gemlemnn does not take his de-
p.11 two in good time he is running the

New York, Dec. 24.—At the Cuban

to a story that Gen. Blanco has sent

missiOn is to join one of the filibuster-
ing expeditions to the east coast of
Cuba and secure the assassination of

“Yes, we. know all about Blanco’s

Rome, Italy, Dec. 24.—The reception
at the Vatican yesterday was largely
attended by Roman Catholic dignita-
ries. ieplying to the Christmas greet-
ings. the Pope deplored the conflict be-
tween the State and the Holy See,
which impartial minds desired to end.
The majority of Italians, ~I-Iis Holiness
continued, were against it, and it was
wrong to fight the will of the people,
who understood that political unity did
not suffice to give them prosperity.
Therefore, they desired the independ~
ence of the Papacy and the restoration
of its rights. Peaceful citizens should
not be confounded with the subversive
factions whose aim Was to set the
cause of Italy and the rights of the
Papacy in conflict. It had never been
unworthy, and the State should make
just reparation.-
The Popé, who was in excellent
health and splendid voice, blessed all
present, including twenty-three Cardi-
nals.

HER HEART B.ROKEN.
Salvation Army Cruelty Mny Kill
Mrs. Bailington Booth.
New York, Dec. 24.—Mrsa Maud B.
Booth, wife of Commander Balllngton
Booth of the American Volunteers, is
said to be growing weaker hourly in _
the Presbyterian Hospital, and there is
but little hope of her recovery. Mrs.
Booth is said to be dying of a broken
heart.
The cause of her illness is an injury
to the pulmonary artery. .This, her
physicians say, was caused “by sud-
den grief or a severe shock.”
While Commander Booth refuses to
speak of the cause _of his wife’s illness
further than to express the prevailing
fear that she may not recover, mem-
bers of 'the Volunteers freely discuss
Mrs. Booth’s illness and its cause. One
of the most prominent members said:
“Mrs. Booth is dying of a broken
heart, not only figuratively, but literal-
ly. The physicians diagnose her ill-
ness as a ruptured blood vpssel of the
“ MRS. BAELINGTON BOOTH.
heart, but we attribute it to the unjust
and cruel treatment she has received
from the Salvation Army ever since
she and her husband were compelled to
leave it.”
Mrs. Booth’s illness dates back to a
short time after the separation of her-
self and husband from the Salvation
Army. She often complained to the
Commander about that time of a se—
vere pain in the region of the heart.
This was at first attributed to a mild
attack of neuralgia of the muscles of
the heart, but as the pain became seri-
ous she consulted the surgeons of the
Presbyterian Hospital, and then
learned of the serious character of the
trouble.
It is little more than two years since
the friction arose in the Salvation
Army which ended in the estrange-
ment of Ballington Booth from his rel-
atives. In February of the same year
Ballington Boot h and his wife with-
drew from the Salvation Army and or-
ganized the Volunteers.
Gen. Booth Hears the News.
London, Dec. 24. —— Gen. William
Booth, the founder and head of the
Salvation Army, received several cable
dispatches yesterday relating to the
condition of Mrs. Ballington Booth,
who is reported to be dying in New
' York of a broken heart in consequence
of the persecutions of the Salvation
Army.
When the General left Army Head-
quarters for the day he ordered that if
any dispatches fo1 him weie received
later they should be kept until this
moining.
THE TROUBLE IN CHINA.
‘E‘i’hy Japan Could Not Declare \Var
Against Either Russia or China.
London, Dec. 24.—The Vienna corre—
spondent of the Standard says
first news of the occupation of Port
Arthur emanated from Tokio, a fact
significant of Japanese vigilance. Dis-
cussing Japan’s position, the corre-
spondent says:
“She cannot decla‘ war against
eithei China 01 Russia", because if she
did the ten large ironclads that are be-
ing built for her in Europe and Amer-
ica and are nearly finished would be
shut. up till the war was over. She
will. the1efore, iisk nothing by her-
self."
A dispatch from Rome says that at
a meeting of the Italian Cabinet it was
decided to dispatch a squadron to Chi-
nese waters.
French Cruiser for China.
Toulon, France, Dec. 24.—The French
cruiser Pascal has sailed for China.
The Pascal is a second-class cruiser of
about 4,000 tons displacement. She has
a 11/3-inch armored deck, carries four
6.4-inch quick-firing guns, ten 3.9-inch
guns, eight 1.8-inch guns and four 1.4-
inch rapid-fire guns, and carries a crew
of 378 men. Her speed is estimated at
twenty knots". -
Japan’s War Ship Nearly Done
San Francisco, Dec. 24.—Work on the
Japanese war vessel Chitos, in course
of construction at the Union Iron
Works, is being pushed forward and
she will be launched early in January.
She will go at nce to. Japan, where
she will receive er armament. The
Japanese Government use the English
Armstrong guns on all the ships, hence
she will not be equipped at this port.
