Easton case reverses state bank controls by U S Supreme Court
The United States Supreme Court ruled Easton v. state of town in favor of Easton, holding state laws regulating state banks do not bind banks incorporated under federal act. Justice Shiras stated Congress controls national banks, while states may define crimes for banks but cannot enact special laws targeting national banks. Also covered were Hillman insurance case remanded for sixth trial and fur seal negotiations with Great Britain failing to pass, with McClellan urging renewed negotiations to protect Alaska seals.
