view OF the situation, and say that they do
notapprehend that the effect on banking in
terests will be serious here; they are OF opin-
ion that the effect will be more marked
abroad. There is an impression here that
Spencer, the president of the bank, has fled
to unknown parts, as he left for the East on
Monday under the pretense Of going to New
York to raise funds. Since that time no trace
as to his whereabouts has been discovered.
Spencer has been identified with several
banking institutions of the West, every one
of which has sooner or later collapsed. He
was at one time cashier of the Elkhorn, Wis
consin bank, which failed in 1855, and he was
indicted for embezzlement Of it's funds.
