A SMALL PANIC IN ST. .LcUIS-RUN ON A
SAVINGS BANK.-A run was started on the
Boatman's Savings Ban&, OF st. Louis,
Saturday. The bank kept its doors open
till half-past O'clock, and met all de-
mands. The run was not very great,
the largest single amount drawn being
$4,000. The business OF the bank pro-
crossed nearly as usual, and the amount re-
ceiyed by itramouDted to nearly haif as
much as was paid out. What started the
run is not known, but probably grew out
OF the closing OF the Butchers and Droyers
Bank and distrust which resulted from re-
cent failures. 1t is believed by those in po-
sition to know that-the bank is entirely
sound and fully able to meet all demands
upon it. .,s,..s,e

spondence with outside parties in regard TO
