A BANK FAILURE. Sutter Creek State Bank Forced to Suspend. Monday evening bank commissioner C. Lynch, arrived from Sar ancisco, and the following morning windows of the Sutter Creel were closed, probably for thirty or until the officers can show authorities that certain securities bank holds are of value. Commissioner Lynch stated that first intimation the bank com had that there was anything with this bank was in Decem when that body called for a re from all the banks, showing al liabilities and assets. This repor correct in every detail, but i owed that the bank held too mucl curity of one concern, the Ame anufacturing Company of Niles, : isiness recently formed by Jackson ennis, who is also president of th Creek bank and the one in The bank commission has it a rule that no bank shal more depositors' money invested any one concern than will amoun twenty per cent of the capita and surplus of the bank.

The Sutter Creek Bank. Little has been heard of the condition of the Sutter Creek Bank since the closure by the bank commissioner two weeks ago, to enable the com missioners to investigate the affairs of the bank, and determine its solvency or otherwise. It is reported that the officials of the Niles bank object to:the report that the Sutter bank 18 connected with the Niles bank, and to the implication thereby conveyed that the latter bank is in any way involved in the troubles of the Sutter Creek concern. It is claimed that the Niles bank is all right. Circulars have been sent out conveying the impression, or rather intended to convey the impression, that parties in Jackson have been knocking the Sutter bank, and blaming them for the suspension. it is a farfetched explanation. It is hardly likely that anyone would maliciously try to injure a banking firm, especially in a time of financial distrust like the present. Indeed. it is far more probable that one bank would help rather than injure a sister institution. But the law of self-protection applies in such matters, and depositors are not going to stand idly by if they believe their interests are in jeopardy. Notwithstanding all that is said, we sincerely hope that the Sutter Creek bank may regain is feet. Its collapse would be a severe blow to the county, and would do Jackson no good. Let us hope that the commissioners can report so that the bank may speedily lesume business

Sutter Creek Bank. A meeting of the depositors of the defunct Sutter Creek bank was held in that town Sunday afternoon. The object was, as far as we could find out, to organize for the purpose of protecting the interests of the depositors in view of the suit commenced by the state for the appointment of a receiver to take charge of the bank's affairs. W. G. Snyder of this city was elected chairman. A committee of 15 was appointed to look over the matter, and report a course of action at the next meeting. C. H. McKenney was elected as chairman of the committee, and after investigation, another meeting will be called at his suggestion. The committee consists of V. Norton, W. L. Rose, C. H. McKenney, Fred Ball, J. Davis, Tony Cavagnaro, Clarence Reeves, Vince Arnerich, George Gersich, D. V. Ramazotti, Dennis Madden. A. Malatesta, Robert Christensen, John Ross jr., and L. L. Cuneo, with C. H. McKenney acting as chairman. Homer W. Wood, who is acting as attorney for Jackson Dennis, arrived from San Francisco Sunday evening, and later went before the committee, which had been called for that evening, and stated that Mr Dennis would have sufficient money on, hand in a few days to reopen the bank and would meet all demands.

Sutter Creek State Bank. The depositors' committee of the Sutter Creek State Bank have been constantly working in a systematic way since the day of their organization. Last Saturday night the committee held a special meeting for the purpose of conferring with the president of the suspended bank. Mr Dennis arrived Saturday night and met with the committee. After hearing from Mr Dennis the committee on ways and means was instructed to further consider and take under advisement certain matters of interest to the depositors. The special committee was in session all Sunday morning. In the afternoon they invited Mr Dennis before the committee and they remained in session several hours. While the committee will not make a statement at this time, believing the interests of the depositors can be best served by such a course, it is generally understood that they reached a satisfactory understanding with the management of the bank. The committee feels indebted to the public for their offers of assistance and kindly words of encouragement, and desires at this time to express its appreciation on behalf of all the depositors who are endeavoring to straighten out the affairs of the bank, in order to protect their savings which they can ill afford to lose.Record.

The Sutter Creek Bank. Last Thursday afternoon a large number of the depositors of the Sutter Creek State Bank met Fin Sutter Creek to discuss the best plans to be followed in regard to the rehabilitation of the bank. The meet ing was called to order by C. H. McKinney, chairman of the committee appointed by the depositors, to look into the attairs of the institution. This committee showed the depositors where most of the securities held by the bank were of value, and that the income from the bonds and the rental of its real estate would pay the running expenses of the bank should they decide to take over the institution. Acting upon their report the depositors unaminously decided that they would assess themselves sufficiently, in the event that Dennis, president of the bank could not raise the required amount, to put the business upon a firm tooting, and that they would run it in the future in their interests. It will require about five or six thousand dollars to bring up the reserve to the percentage set by law. The amount of money on deposit at the time that the bank was closed by the state bank commissioner was about $76,000, and of this amount $73,000 have been signed up by the committee to withhold the drawing of their money as soon as the bank opened, should such be the case. Of the entire amount on deposit this is over 97 per cent, a very good showing for the committee.

Trial of Case of Sutter Creek Bank. The trial of the case of the People vs. Sutter Creek Bank came up this morning in the superior court. Bank commissioner Lynch was called as a witness and stated that in his opinion the bank was absolutely insolvent. Peter Dabovich, cashier of the bank for the past four years or more, was called and stated that the bank was insolvent. He said that he believed the depositors of the bank would real1Ze between fifty and sixty cents on the dollar. He was asked if he had gone over all the books and traced all the transactions of the insittution, to which he answered that he had done so with the assistance of Fred Eudey. He said they were unable to trace a difference of $10,000 between the book assets and the liabilities. There is also a check of the Ames Manufacturing Company of Niles for $5000, certified to by the bank, which does not appear on the books. The bank premises were reported to the commissioners as being valued at $14,000, but Dabovich stated that they are worth only about $8000, while the stock of the Ames Manufacturing Co. is worth the face value, as are also ail the notes. There is on hand in the bank at the present, or immediately available, about $6,600, besides which between $4000 and $5000 can be raised almost immediately on certain securities. When questioned as to the officers of the bank he gave the name of Jackson Dennis, himself, Geo. Waschter, T. J. Bennets, F. J. Payne, and M. Marks as the directors, leaving out the name of F. N. Soracco, whose name appears in the complaint as one of the directors. He stated that the latter had disposed of his stock in the company about a week before the bank doors were closed, and that the transfer appeared on the books. Soracco tendered his resignation as a director at the time of the transfer, but the board of directors had not met since it was organ:zed into a state bank, so that his name still appeared on the books as a director. Assistant Attorney General Palmer appeared for the people, Wm. J. McGee for the directors, while Attorney Monroe of San Francisco looked after the interests of the depositors. Monroe said that the depositors' committee had done everything in their power to keep the bank out of the hands of a receiver, trying to raise sufficient money to bring the reserve to the amount required by law, but that they had failed ID their efforts. He recommended the appointment of Fred Eudey as receiver on account of his being perfectly acquainted with the banking business, and because he is a disinterested party. The court took the matter under advisement and will probably report its decision this afternoon. Jackson Dennis, president of the bank, was not present at

The Sutter Creek Bank. Fred Eudey, receiver of the Sutter Creek bank, accompanied by A. Caminetti, his attorrney, went to San Francisco on Saturday last, for the purpose of seeing the bank commissioners, and informing themselves as to the course to pursue in winding up the concern as speedily as possible. They returned Wednesday evening. Jackson Dennis also came from the city at the same time, accompanied by one of the officials of the Canton bank of San Francisco, who will investigate the affairs of the defunct bank. Mr Dennis had telegraphed abead that he would be up and settle the indebtedness, and we presume the bank official that came with him is here to acquaint himself with the true state of affairs, so as to be able to act advisedly. Mr Eudey also went over to Sutter Creek yesterday on the bank's business.

SUTTER CREEK BANK TO BE WOUND UP ess. No Hope of Resum The affairs of the Bank are to to be ily as possible. The to be the remotest 1 being resuscitated, and ring business, either under the old management, or by the depositors taking charge, and assuming the indebtedness. The depositors in fact thoroughly investigated the proposition to assume control, and decided that such a course was inadvisable, and concluded that the better course was to have a receiver appointed under the state commission to close up its aftairs. It would seem that the latest move to get the institution out of the receiver's hands has also miscarried. A banker from San Francisco connected with the Canton bank there, came up last week, in company with the former president, Jackson Dennis, was up last week looking over the situation, presumably at the instance of the managers. The move, however, has resulted in nothing definite. Fred Eudey, the receiver appointed by the coart to wind up the business, is going ahead wih his work. He will devote his energies toward getting all there is in it for the depositors, and in as short a time as possible consistent with efficiency. There is a good deal of dissatisfaction among a few interested parties in our sister town at the turn things have taken. It is not on account of the receiver appointed, because the appointee was the choice of all parties. But the howl is made, because the attorney for the receiver was not the one the depositors' committee had slated for that position. We cannot believe that the bitterness shown is shared in by the majority of those interested, or that it reflects the feeling in Sutter Creek generally. We believe in supporting home industy and home talent in preference to going outside. In behalf of all concerned the hands of the receiver should be upheld, and every assistance rendered him in straightening out the bank's affairs.

Sutter Creek State Bank. Frederick Eudey, receiver of the Sutter Creek bank, recently petitioned the court to allow him to return $200 to the bank commissioners, this being an amount which they failed to hold out when they turned over the funds of the bank to the receiver. The cash on hand at that comtime was $6,036.02. When the missioners took charge of the bank and closed its doors they appointed a receiver, agreeing to pay him $400, but through some misunderstanding the commissioners held out only $200, turning over $6,036.20 to the receiver. The court ordered the other $200 paid the commissioners, who in turn will pay it to Soracco. Some time before the closing of the bank V. M. Colt entered into contract with various parties to erect cemetery monuments, the contracts amounting to $1785, the work to be completed at different dates commencing the first of February this year. It is claimed that the bank had a standing agreement with the Vermont Marble Co. of San Francisco, guaranteeing payment of all orders sent in by Colt. Just before the closing of the bank, that institution entered into agreement with Colt whereby they were to furnish the material for completing the monuments, the contracts for the work being turned over to the bank for collection. But before any material was ordered the commissioners closed the bank, so it could not complete the agreement. On account of orders on previous contracts Colt was allowed to overdraw his account $1684.84. Eudey, as receiver, succeeded in making an arrangement with Colt whereby the bank stands less chance of losing the whole amount. He agreed to turn over to Colt the contracts mentioned above, while the latter waives all claims against the bank for the non-completion of its coutract, pays $50 by an accepted order on Carlo Giovannoni payable in thirty days, and also agreed to give Eudey his promissory note for the amount of the overdraft, with interest at seven per cent. On petition of Eudey, the court made an order Wednesday allowing him to complete the agreement. The Vermont Marble Co. has a claim against the Sutter Creek bank for $1062.28 for material furnished Colt on previous orders, the payment of which they claim was guaranteed by P. Dabovich, as cashier of the bank. -mm
