Dundee Courier: Friday 2nd August 1895

The Charges Against Bank Directors: A Times telegram from St. John’s Newfoundland, says: – The magisterial inquiry into the charges brought against the Union Bank Directors began yesterday. The Crown withdrew its case against the manager, Mr. Pinsent and proposes to call him as a witness. It is generally expected that the others will be committed for trial before the Supreme Court. The Telegram, Sir W. Whiteway’s organ, says that Mr. Harvey, an ex-member of the executive, welcomes the inquiry and further says that there is not the slightest doubt that the evidence will show that his position is far different from that of the other Directors. Counsel for the Crown and the other Directors are expected to unite in a motion to punish the Telegram for contempt of Court. Mr. Morine, ex-Colonial Secretary, is suing the Telegram for $5,000 for insinuating that he was the author of the damaging dispatches sent abroad.
