In Brief: Dime Hires Another Executive from Chase

With the hiring of James Linnane to head Northeast sales, Dime Savings Bank of New York continues to snare top talent from Chase Manhattan Mortgage.

Mr. Linnane had been a regional manager at Chase for the past five years and will be Dime's Northeast regional manager.

Dime launched an aggressive mortgage campaign last year and has been taking advantage of post-merger fallout at Chase Manhattan, which was acquired by Chemical Banking Corp.

Defections from Chase have included Richard A. Mirro, now president of Dime Mortgage.
