The depositors of the Third Avenue Savings Bank are naturally indignant at the prospect of the loss of a large part of the accumulations of their thrift, but angry denunciation of the trustees of. the suspended institution and of the State Superintendent of the Banking Department will avail them little. Moreover, there hardly seems to be sufficient ground for their proposed effort to get a new receiver appointed; at least, no convincing reason for

WALL STREET'S USUAL RUMORS. The Reports of Runs upon Various Savings Banks Pronounced Untrue. Just before the close of business in Wall street. yesterday, it was ascertained that the German Up-town savings bank, at Fifty-fifth street and Third avenue was the victim of a run. Mr. Christian Schwartz. President of the bank, said that there bad been a slight run. but that it had its inception in the general distrust created by the failure of the Third Avenue Savings Bank. "Our bank, he said. is perfectly sound, and our depositors are the victims of a scare." Some months ago this bank successfully withstood a run of nine days, paying all depositors as they applied. Yesterday the bank availed itself of a clause in its by-laws which authorizes it, in cases of emergency, to demand that its depositors give it SIXTV days notice of their intention to withdraw their deposits. President Sebwartz and his officera therefore refused the applications of several panic stricken depositors, but where they had taxes, or interest on mortgages. or rent to pay, or where urgent necessity for the use of money was apparent, it was paid without demur. But unless good cause was shown depositors were refused sums of over $20. The rumor that the Merchants' and Traders' Savings Bank has been dabbling in stocks IS pronounced false: but it is undoubtedly true that many of the less conservative savings banks have been lending money on stock collateral, in plain violation of the law.

THIRD AVENUE SAVINGS BANK. Several of the heaviest depositors of the Third Ave. nue Savings Bank have been in consultation with the bank officials relative to resuming business again. They propose that as soon as it is known what dividend can be paid each depositor shall be credited with the amount due on that basis; that the bank be run under a email expense and shall pay but four per cent interest and that all the profits shall be added to the depositors' individual accounts. They also propose that the present Receiver, Mr. Carman, shall manage the bank, but that a new board of officers be appointed. If this plan is followed the creditors will in the end, it is said, receive upward of ninety per cent, while if they push the Receiver their dividend will not amount to more than fifty per cent. They further suggest that the most needy depositors be paid a dividend of about ten per cent as soon as possible, which can be easily done. with the property that can be negotiated without loss If this plan is not agreed to by a majority of the depositors they are in favor of waiting and giving the Receiver an opportunity to negotiate the property without sacrificing it to wind it up immediately,

At a meeting of the depositors of the Peoples' Savings Bank on Saturday evening at No. 200 Third-ave. it was decided to employ counsel to procure the removal of the present receiver and Ito bring suits against the trustees in dividually in order that the deficiency might be made good. Another meeting will be held this afternoon to receive a preliminary report of the condition of the bank. The examination in the charge of perjury against T. W. Decker, late President of the Third Avenue Savings Bank, was continued on Saturday at the Yorkville Police Court, before Justice Duffy. The accountant employed by the depositors testified that he had found many irregularities in the yearly reports and some tietitious items. The hearing will be resumed on Dee. 27.

Papers for his arrest were prepared for presentation to court on Saturday by A. B. Fitch. It is believed that the report was intended to mislead those interested.
