Description

The articles report the Third National Bank of St. Paul suspended operations and the stockholders voted to go into voluntary liquidation (business to be transacted at Merchants' National Bank). The suspension was driven by heavy losses tied to Rood & Maxwell (about $208,000) and a $45,000 loss on Matt Clark Transportation—bank-specific adverse information. There is mention of modest depositor withdrawals (~$22,000) but no large panic/run; the institution went into liquidation and did not remain operating. Later 1894 notices show the bank insolvent under a receiver, consistent with permanent closure.

A BIG FAILURE. A St. Paul Bank Suspends-Not Doing a Paying Business. ST. PAUL, October 31.-The Third National Bank suspended to-day. The bank has not done a paying business for some time past. It was caught for $45, 000 in the failure of the Matt Clark Transportation Company, and was creditor of Rood & Maxwell, lumber men of Washburn, Wis. for $208,000, of which $165,000 was custom paper endorsed by Rood & Maxwell. It was thought the attachments placed on the effects of the latter firm by the bank would cover its claim, but it found only about twenty-five per cent. of its claim could be depended upon. The total loss to the stockholders on these two failures will be about $190,000. About $22,000 was drawn out to-day by depositors. President Mann states that the unsecured liabilities to the public aggregate $125, 000, and that this money is now waiting for its owners. Most of the stockholders are wealthy residents of the twin cities. The bank's assets are principally bill receivable, of which about 75 per cent. are considered good. It is not considered likely that the bank will be reorganized.

Developments in the Third National Bank's Affairs Were Not Startling. Inspector Hays Says the Season on the River Has Been a Good One. County Commissioners Object to Several of the Sheriff's Mileage Bills. Summary of the Doings in the City Gathered From Many Sources. AT A STANDSTILL. How the Third National Bank Officials Talked Yesterday. The scene about the Third National bank yesterday was one of quietude and wore an ordinary businesslike appearance. Depositors were not rudely jostling one another in hot haste to secure a place at the paying window, nor was the teller loaded down with huge bags of money and running wildly about to appease the mutterings of an impatient, anxious crowd. Those who had money due them came in simply and quietly, withdrew their deposit, stopped long enough to express a few kind words of regret and passed out. The officials seemed to have recovered their spirits somewhat and were busily engaged attending to correspondence, etc. "There are no new developments," said the teller, "except that I have paid out something over $10,000 to-day, just about half the amount that was drawn out on Monday. If the bank does continue business it will be under an entirely new company." Mr. Stower, the cashier, who stood with his hands buried in his pants pockets, turned at the GLOBE man's approach and with a smile said: "Look here, I'm going to chain an immense English watch dog in front of my door to keep you fellows away. For the life of me I can't see what more you can publish. The president will tell you all the news there is." "Yes, but it just happens that there isn't any news," remarked the president, Walter Mann, pleasantly. "The only thing I can say is that our loans are coming in nicely. The deposits of St. Paul people are nearly paid out, and will be entirely PAID BY TO-MORROW. "As far as our loans are concerned, they are all good. It will take some time to clear up this part of the business. We are not selling out at a mere nothing, for the reason we went into voluntary liquidation was to clear as much as possible for the stockholders. If there is any scheme on foot to continue the business under a new company I am not aware of it or in a position to know anything about it. The idea that the Third has "failed." as many people seem to think, is an erroneous one, as it has simply retired. The business was not profitable and the bank stopped. Nor is Mr. Stower, the cashier, the eleemosynary that a paper would make him out. Though he had stock in the bank, it was whispered into the GLOBE man's ears that he is still worth a cool $50,000. At the meeting Friday a complete tabled statement of the bank's condition, loans, discounts, etc., will be made out, and other points of interest will no doubt be developed. At present things are at a standstill.

DAILY HERALD. GENERAL CLEANINGS. Reported by Correspondente of the Associated Press. The Third National Bank of St. Paul will doubtless go into liquidation this reek. It is stated that the bank is perfectly solvent and that depositors will be paid dollar for dollar. The deposits reach $200,000, and the capital is $500,000. The bank holds $200.000 of paper of Rood & Maxwell, lumber dealers, who failed at Washburne, Wis., last week. Charles Myers, of Astoria, Oregon, has been acquitted of the charge of the murder of Elmer Stimson. Stimson was the former husband of Myers' wife and he continued following Myers up, persecuting him and threatening to. take his life. The parties finally met and the fatal shooting oc. curred. Stimson was proved to be the aggressor. The motion made by AttorneyGeneral Garland to advance the case of the receiver of the First National Bank, of Buffalo, against Eldridge G. Spaulding and others has been denied at Washington. The case involves the question of the liability of the directors of National Banks for negligence in the performance of their duties. District Attorney Martine has finished the consideration of the papers submitted in the complaint made against Jay Gould and Russell Sage, charged with hypothecating $6,000,000 in bonds of the Kansas Pacific Railroad, and will submit the matter to the grand jury. The United States Marshal arrested Douglas Lawson, the alleged stage robber, at Green Gulch, Fresno county, on Sunday. Lawson was charged with robbing the mail coach on the Merced and Coulterville road in Dember last. Frank See was killed by the acciental discharge of a rifle at Napa on Sunday while unslinging a deer on his return from a hunting trip. The Petit Journal, of Paris, says that most of the French Chambers of Commerce have pronounced against France entering the sugar bounty conference.

The Third National bank of St. Paul has decided to suspond business, and its obligations will all be met promptly and in full. The fact that it had extended its credit for over $200,000 to an unreliable lumber firm in Wisconsin caused the public to lose confidence in the carefulness of the management, and the stockholders thought it good policy to suspend business.
