TALK OF RESUMPTION, Strong Probability that the State National Will Resume Again. A special dispatch from Washington yesterday says: "Gay Lombard, cashier of the defunct State National bank at Wichita, called on Comptroller Eckels today. Some time was spent in talking over the affairs of the bank and propositions were discussed for its reopening, but nothing was agreed upon. The comptroller is inclined to favor opening the bank for business, but the original trouble with the directory, which resulted in closing the bank, appears so far to prevail." L. D. Skinner, president of the bank. was sought yesterday for information on the subject, but he, too, was out of town. It was stated that he had gone east with a view to making arrangements to reorganize the bank, and that the outlook was decidedly favorable. One gentleman who knows a good deal about the bank affairs said, "Yes, I look for a resumption of business soon at the bank. Affairs are in very fair shape for a reorganization, and if nothing unforeseen happens, I look for an announcement to be made to that effect the latter part of next week. If a reorganization is not completed by the end of next week, I look for the appointment of a receiver. The comptroller seems to understand the situation thoroughly and he is using his influence to effect a reorganization."
