New York, March 6—Misconduct of
affair* of the Oriental hank, which Is
In tlie hands of receivers, Is charged
in a report written by examiners em-
ployed by the receivers and made puh-
!k today, The report says:
The hank has Iwen conducted in a
most slipshod, loose utlbttsinexs-llke
manner and has been permeated with
Irregularities, frauds and crime With-
in the last two years the administra-
tion of its affairs have been criticised
by sever*!' apparent defalcations, for-
geries. perjury and other violations of
the statutes of this state: and the at-
tention of the city or state had not
yet been called to the violators of the
law by the officers or directors or at-
torneys of the Oriental bank.
Sums aggregating considerable
amount* have been charged to' profit
and loss’ ami the offender* allowed to
escape the law, apparently because
they were employes of the hank,
while tho officers were afraid to pros-
ecut,. for fear of exposure of greater
or more serious irregularities, or vio-
lations of law by those higher up."
The examiners alleged that large
hums were made by the directors of
tho Oriental hank at the request of
souV of their number who were also
directors of the hanks In Brooklyn
which have since failed anil that some
of these loans to the extent of several
hundred thousand dollars was charged
off while other loans against the same
men were counted a* good.
New York. March 5—A charge that
he agreed to pay $1,500 to Nathan Vid-
aver, an attorney, last. November, to
bring a Unit a cessation of newspaper
attacks upon the Hamilton bank after
Vldaver had said "he had no doubt
he could fix it with Jackson to have
the attacks stopped," was made by
William R. Montgomery, former pres-
ident of tile Hamilton hank, in an affi-
davit filed In police court, today. The
affidavit was a part of the complaint
against Vldaver, who was arrested
j yesterday on a charge of extortion
preferred by Mr. Montgomery. Mont-
gomery declares in his affidavit that
newspaper attacks were stopped In-
stantly upon his agreement to pay
$1,500 to Vldaver Up lo the time ol
hi* arrest yesterday Vldaver was one
of State Attorney General Jackson's
special deputies
Montgomery in his affidavit says:
“Two or three days before Frank
White, the temporary, receiver of the
Hamilton bank, issued the preliminary
report on the affairs of the hank to
the attorney general. Grossman and
his partner. Vorhaus. met me in the
office of Searing and company at No. 7
Wall street I had told Grossman that
Searing had advised me not to pay
the $1,500, and Grossman came over to
argue the matter with Searing. Gross-
man stated to Seating and myself that
I hd placed hint in a very embarrass-
ing position with Vldaver and had
placed Vldaver In an embarrassing po-
sition with the attorney general for
my neglect to pay the $1,500; Gross-
man telephoned for Vldaver, and Vida-
ver came over to Searing’s office in a
few minutes. Vidaver told him that
the attorney general’s office believed
he was ‘four-flushing’ about the $1,500
that they believed I had been giving
Vidaver a 'con game' and that the
people in the attorney general's office
were pretty hot about it. He said to
us that he could not hold them off tiny
longer, and until 1 put up the money
he would not be responsible for what
was said about me anti the Hamilton
hank in*the newspapers.”

"The panic has also emphasized the

"The present financial stringency

CONGO QUESTION IN
BELGIAN PARLIAMENT
Text of Annexation Treaty Presented
and General Impression Is That
the Bill Will Pass as It
Is Proposed.
KING GETS BIG CONCESSIONS
Brussels, Mjirch 5.—The text of the
now Congo annexation treaty was
submitted to parliament today, Jt
confirms the forecast already cabled
that King Leopold agrees to it as the
crown domain and the crown founda-
tion to Belgium, but it requires that
Belgium shall not only assume the
Congo obligations, but undertake also
to conduct the king's usufruct in the
Congo revenues during Its lifetime.
Belgium is specifically required to re-
spect the concessions granted to two
American companies in 1906, in which
Thomas F. Ryan is interested. The
terms of the new treaty have been
given a mixed reception, but the gen-
eral Impression Is that the annexation
of the Congo Independent State to
Belgium on the proposed basis is pos-
sible. It is probable, however, that
the clauses recognizing the vast con-
cessions accorded to the American
Forest and Mineral company, in which
the king Is heavily interested, will
encounter much opposition.
The Congo revenues are charged
with the following annual allowances:
Twenty-four thousand dollars to
Prince Albert, son of the Count of
Flanders, King lieopold's brother:
$15,001) 1 PrincesB Clementine, the
king's tt daughter, and as an espe-
cial toki of gratitude to the king
the sum of $10,000,000 in fifteen an-
nual instalments for his use in con-
structing hospitals and schools and
forwarding scientific work In Africa.
Furthermore, Belgium must expend
the sum of $9,000,000 in work for
which contracts already have been
made, In addition, King Leopold re-
tains in fee simple 40,000 hectare of
land at Mayumbe for coffee and cocoa
growing experiments, and during his
lifetime he is to enjoy his Interests
in the Congo concessionary com-
panies and the property in Belgium
and France which he purchased out
of the funds of the Congo foundation.
Upon the death of the king all this
property must be devoted exclusively
to Congo expenditures.

Negro Who Was Charged With Snatch-

Sam Jones, charged with theft from
the person, growing out of a case in
which he snatched a purse from the
hand of Miss Kate Adams, was yes-

two years In the state penitentiary.
Jones is the negro that City Recorder

captured.

Playing at Divorce.
A curious sidelight is thrown upon
the divorce question in America, says
the Dundee Advertiser. A mother coma
into the room and found her two chil-
dren quarreling about a doll. She
said. “You must stop quarreling or I
shall take the doll away." “We aren't
really quarrelin. mamma,” said one of
the little girls, ‘‘we're playing Jennie's
suing me for divorce, and we’re trying
to decide who’ll have the custody of
the child.” When it is remembered
that 1,000,000 divorces have been re-
corded in the United States In a pe-
riod of twenty years, perhaps it is not
surprising that children should play
at divorce, as they play at going to
school. ......... "■■■' ■'.........."......
