J. N. PORIER'S BANK GLOSES AT GLOBE Its Suspension Leaves the Mining Town With No National Bank. Globe, Nov. 21-The First National bank of this city, with deposits of $750,000. was dropped from the Globe clearinghouse association tonight and will not open in the morning. This leaves no national bank in operation here, the Globe National bank having closed three weeks ago. No statement has been made by President J. N. Porter, who has banking interests in Texas as well as in Arizona. The heavy drawing exchange since the Globe National suspended probably was the cause of the suspension today. The bank has been considered one of the strongest in the territory.

(From Tueson Star) The telegram received by the Star on Friday night from J. N. Porter, president of the First National bank at Globe, which suspended business on Thursday night was typical of the man. "I saved my life but lost my money in the financial eyclone," tells the story in brief and the expression shows that the big-hearted president of the First National bank at Globe is not much worried or cast down on account of his immediate financial embarrassment. It is certain that every depositor in the First National ban kat Globe will receive every dollar that is due him and when the report of the receiver is finally made the worst that can be said is that J. N. Porter was too liberal with his friends when they were in financial distress and needed help. J. N. Porter has been a picturesque figure in the banking business in Arizona for the past ten years. He came to Arizona about eighteen years ago from Texas, with a small remnant of cattle, after a long brouth in the Lone Star state. He unloaded them in the Sulphur Springs valley and began life

GLOBE BANK MAY RESUME OPERATIONS President of Suspended Institution Issues Statement Saying Everythng Is In FirstClass Condition. GLOBE, Dec. 13.-If present plans do not miscarry or bump up against an unsurmountable obstacle in the office of the comptroller of the currency at Washington, the First National Rank of Globe will be open for business and resume payment as usual on February 1. It is officially given out that the bank is in fine condition; that its securities are all gilt-edged, amply covering of loans and upon the return to normal conditions there will be no trouble in realizing on this paper. "The bank has recently secured $100,000 in cash," said J. N. Porter. "If our present plans are not interrupted the capital stock will be doubled, giving us $100,000 more, and with the cash now in hand and the cok lections to be made, we will have more than $400,000 in cash with which to resume business. 'Before this can be done, however, it will be necessary for the receiver to thoroughly check up the business of the bank and forward his report and recommendations to the comptroler of the currency. It will then be up to that official to say whether or not we can reopen. "But there is one thing sure: When the doors of the bank do reopen again it will be for all time. I must be assured in advance that depositors will act sane and conservative. I will never undertake to resume the business unless I am absolutely sanguine that there will be no more unwaranted runs and that I will not be forced again to close my doors. 'I have every confidence in the future of Globe and am willing to risk my own money and the money of my friends if the people are disposed to use good judgment."

From Globe comes the welcome news that J. N. Porter, president of the First National bank of that city, who was forced to suspend during the recent financial slump, will reopen the bank soon after the first of the year. J. N. Porter is one of the best known financiers in southern Arizona and at no time was there any doubt of the ability of his bank to pay the depositors all that was due them. Besides his bank he has a large amount of valuable property, including thousands of range cattle on the San Carlos reservation. The many friends of Mr. Porter will be glad to learn that he will soon be able to resume business with an increased banking capital.

GLOBE FIRST NATIONAL WILL RESUME BUSINESS. It is announced in Globe that the First National bank of that city will open its doors for resumption of business today, or not later than Monday. This bit of news will be received with joy throughout the territory because of the extended acquaintance and popularity of J. N. Porter, president of th bank and its principal owner. Mr. Porter was forced to shut the doors of the First National at Globe during the panicky times last fall, after having drained his vaults of all available cash which was paid to depositors. It was understood when the bank was closed that none of the depositors would lose anything and that as soon as Mr. Porter could realize cash on some of his various and important property holdings the bank doors would be reopened and business resumed. The statement is made that Mr. Porter has arranged for doubling the capital stock of the bank and that as soon as resumption of business has taken place a reorganization of the

FIRST NATIONAL OF GLOBE STARTS WELL Makes Fine Record On First Day, After Enforced Closing During Panic. (Globe Belt.) The First National bank opened its doors for business yesterday morning at 9 o'clock and it was an event that was received with more than ordinary welcome in business and other circles.. The old stockholders of the bank held a meeting at the close of business and voted to increase the capital stock from $50,000 to. $100,000 A wire to this effect was sent to the comptroller of the currency asking for authorization and the necessary message is expected today. Tomorrow the old and new stockholders will meet and reorganize. Although no authentic information has been given out concerning the personnel of the new board of direc-, tors, it is understood that it will comprise some of the best known and influential business men of this section of Arizona in addition others of the old board. The bank resumes business with a capital stock of $100,000 and a surplus of $100,000, without a scrap of paper in its valuts that is not e worth its face value and in fact, in r. better condition than-it has ever been. tIt was expected that the reopening di of the bank would be the signal for a run on it by depositors, who had not d signed the withdrawal agreement and e who believe that all banks which suido pend business, do so because of crook0 edness of the officials and who know S nothing of the requirements of the Igovernment which are necessary ben fore a bank may resume. These morof bid anticipations, however, were hapn pily not fulfilled. k e A large percentage of the foreigners who had deposits in the bank, withr drew their funds and some of them renewed their accounts when they g found out that they could really get 11 the money which had been withheld e from them for several months. But T the amount of money withdrawn was more than offset by the amount of new deposits and when the bank closed at 1 o'clock there was more money on d hand than when it opened. or the e total amount of deposits, almost a half million dollars, slightly less than $15,000 was withdrawn during the day il and over $20,000 was deposited. President Porter stated after the close of the day's business that it was the happiest day of his life, and he looked it, as did everyone connected with the bank, down to the colored porter. And that state of feeling was not confined to the bank officials and employes, as the re-opening of the bank gladdened the hearts of hundreds who have not had much happiness for several months. One touch of nature makes the whole world kin, but nature isn't in it with the touch of tin.

FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF GLOBE TO RESUME. GLOBE, Ariz., Feb. 29. - (Special Dispatch to the Journal Miner) - After a suspension of over three months, the First National bank of this city, which closed its doors during the recent financial flurry, owing to heavy withdrawals of deposits and inability to realize on loans, will resume business Monday, under instructions from the comptroller of the currency, at Washington. President J. N. Porter stated tonight that a reorganization of the banking company would be affected, with double the present capital stock of $50,000. The addition of new capital, which represents new interests in the institution, will cause a change in the directorate as it exists at present.

to + + + Of Local Interest ADVANCE SALE GOOD.-The advance sale of tickets for the recital to be given by Miss Edith Noyes of Boston at the Arizona School of Music on March 9th has been very encouraging and a large crowd promises to be in attendance. Miss Noyes is a talented impersonator and reader whose work has been given the stamp of approval by many noted actors and dramatic critics, The price has been placed low because there have been so many entertainments in Phoenix the past season and not because the recital will be any the less artistic and meritorious. The pupils of Mrs. Mae Cooley are taking an active interest in securing promised patronage. SUPERIOR QUIET.-F. W. Hoar, consulting engineer for the Lake Superior and Arizona mine at Superior, accompanied by his family, was a visitor in Phoenix yesterday. He reports that mining is quiet at Superior, although there are many capitalists showing up every week in the camp, looking over the prospects. None of the companies are doing much at present, but there are indications of resumed activity shortly. The Lake Superior and Arizona company a few days ago held a meeting at Florence. The property is the largest developed mine in the district and the ore shipments have proved a high per cent of copper, the best running as high as 30 per cent and the average 15 per cent. BANK RECEIVER.-Mr. E. C. Perkins, a prominent attorney of Lincoln, Illinois, arrived in Phoenix yesterday from Globe where he had been sent by the Comptroller of Currency to take charge of the affairs of the First National Bank some months ago. The bank resumed business on Saturday, and it has started off with an assurance of financial and friendly support. Mr. Perkins came bv the way of Roosevelt it being his first trip to Arizona, and he was much interested in what he termed the eighth wonder of the world. On arriving in the valley he was wonderfully surprised to view such fine farms. He toured in an automobile over the greater part of the valley yesterday and looked at a tract of land which he contemplates purchasing later. He intends to return with one or two other Illinois business men and plant some capital down in Salt River valley soil and see how it will increase. Mr. Perkins says it did not take thirty minutes' ride through the valley after visiting the dam site to convince him that here was a chance to get in on the ground floor and make some money. He will leave today for Illinois. ONLY ONE COURGE POSSIBLE. Tokio, March 6-(Friday noon)-The Associated Press was informed this morning that the negotiations with China in the matter of the seizure of the Japanese steamer Tatsu, had not reached the ultimatum stage yet and it was further stated that Minister Hayashi at Pekin had not been instructed to that effect. It is also believed that Minister Hayashi has not made any threats to use force. It is admitted, however, that in the event China fails to yield only one course is possible.

him was the evidence every where of the restoration of normal conditions after the panic. There is about as much activity in the great mining camps of Globe, Douglas and Bisdee as there was before the trouble began and there appears to have been a full return of confidence. He was at Giobe on the day that the First National Bank, Porter's bank resumed business. When the bank was opened there was no run on it as some had feared; that is there was no run on it in the ordinary meaning of the word, "run" but there was a run after all. People formed in a long line, not to withdraw the deposits which had been caught in the suspension of the institution but to express their confidence in the bank by adding to the deposits. Nowhere was there any talk of hard times or even of entbarrassment.

REORGANIZE FIRST NATIONAL (Continued from Page One) R. C. Andrus of Globe; George H. Cook, A. W. Crawford, Los Angeles; P. A. Johns, C. C, Pennington, Mrs. Florence W. Herndon, Prescott; Dan O'Carroll, Kelvin; H. S. Manuel, F. L. Darbyshire, Nathan Solomon, El Paso; George A. Olney, Mrs. Hattie F. Solomon, Safford; and Mrs. Jennie Solomon, Oakland, Cal. Previous to the reorganization of the First National, its capital stock had been owned exclusively in Globe and as seen, much new capital has been brought to Globe by its rehabilitation, which is almost as important to the city as to the bank. The bank is now doing business with a capital stock of $100,000, and a surplus of $100,000, which makes it $300,000 "to the good" as the stockholders are liable for twice its capitalization or an additional hundred thousand. Another strong feature is in the paper assets of the bank, Before resumption was allowed, all paper declared by the receiver to be worthless had to be taken from the vaults and its fact value substituted in currency, so that all collateral now held by the bank is worth not less than its face value. Mr. Porter is to be congratulated in securing as his associates in business such men as those mentioned, men whose names stand for all that is best and strongest in a financial way, and which are the surest guarantee for the safety of the depositors.
