SEA ISLE CITY BANK. The Doors Closed had Much of the Town's Meney in Peril. Special to the Jersey City News. SEA ISLE CITY, May 25, 1892.-The Peo ple's Bank of this city has closed the doors and the following notice is posted upon them:Owing to unforseen incidents it has been deemed wise to close. Every depositor will be paid in full. A general statement will be furnished in a few days. J. E. SMITH, Cashier. The State Bank examiner will make an investigation. Conservative creditors believe that all depositors will be paid, and that the suspension was only considered best because of a lack of business. It is said that the Treasurer, L. S. Chester, had a large amount of the city's nioney on deposit, and, as much of this cash will be needed immediately to cover municipal expenses, the suspension had placed him in a serious dilemma. A receiver will probably be asked for. The People's Bank was a State bank, organized in 1888, with the following officers:-George W. Urquhart, President; Archibald Garvin, Vice President; L. M. Cresse, Cashier; Thomas E. Ludlam, Assistani Cashier. All or these officers have held their places up to the present, with the exception of Cashier Cresse, who resigned a week ago to become assistant cashier of the Union National Bank at Atlantic City. His departure caused many of the depositors to draw out their deposits, This, no doubt, hastened the action of the directors in closing. State Bank Examiner Van Camp examined the accounts of the bank last April and found everything in good shape. so the bank officials say.
