CHICAGO, April 24.-The City National
Bank-capital quarter of million
closed down this morning. The notice
on the doors says that the stockholders
have decided to go into voluntary liqui-
dation, as the best means OF doing JUS
tice to all creditors OF the bank, that it
had been found impossible to convert
the assets speedily enough to meet the
continued drain which has been made of
late on its cash resources; that in the
opinion of the directors the assets will
be ample to pay all liabilities if the cred.
itors will give the officers short time to
turn themselves. The cashier says the |
entire liabilities, exclusive OF capitol |
stocks are $500, 900, which are mostly |
deposits. This amount is secured by
assets, making the nominal surplus over
all liabilities Of about $4,000; nearly
all collectable. No other banks are seri-
ously affected by the failure.
