LURAY BANK CLOSES DOORS.
The Victim of a Run " which Caused the
Depositors to Withdraw Their Funds.
ISpeclal Telegram 70 the Dispstch.l

LuRAY, VA, December 22.-The banking
house of b. +. Ksgey d Co. closed its doors
here this morning. The liabilities have not
been stated. though il is SAID the assets will
be more than sufficient TO cover the banks
indebtedness. Representatives OF New
York and of Baltimore bank are now
here, one of whom viii be made the as
slgnee.
THE CAUSE.
On October 9th last there was a heavy
run on the bank, from which it seems it
could not recover, and IT IS thought that
there has been gradual withdrawal of de-
posits since from various sources. The
bank did a large business throughout this
section and the failure, therefore, will af-
feet number Of depositors here, though
no serious results are anticipated. There
is hopeful feeling. though the depositors
will be eventually paid in full.

The sub-treasny plan would re,
qu1re the building up of warehouses
III every county. This would cost
S5O,O0O,0OO. Some will say that big
sum will kill the plan. If it was
$5O,OOO,OOO for pensions, OF rivers and
harbors, it wouldn't be too much, but
1t is too much to give the farmers of
the United States!
You can get the $4,000, 900 out of
the S1OO,OO0,000 surplus left to re-
deem the treasury notes which Con
| gress has declared are not to be re-
deemed, and these millions are ly1ru
| IDLE In the vaults. There are S25.-
100000 i'll fractional currency, which
the bankers won't handle, because it
IS too small. Give us the fragmen-
tary and ragged currency. ZAP
plause.
When the crops are harvested you
could take them to these warehouses;
and store them, pay the actual ex-
penSc OF storage, insurance, etc. The
agent would then issue 80 per cent.
advance upon the value of the pro
duce, and still leave 20 per cent. for
future use.
The moment your cotton goes into
the warehouse it is impossible for the
speculators to get hold of it. This
would keep prices more equally
steady. 1t would be there for twelve
months, and within that time the
tnimer would be brought face to face
with the consumer, and it would keep
him out of the hands of the spccula-
tors. 1t would at once put an end to
corners, combinations and trusts.
Cheers.
We have been asked, what if we
don't sell i'll twelve months? Then
the agent would sell and settle with
us.
This currency put in circulation
would make about $50 per capita and
put us back to the good times in
1868.
The crops are stored in the ware
houses, the agent issues certificates
When they are sold out the certifi-
Gates are burned This would make
the currency flexible, giving us money
with which to handle each crop and
retiring some when not needed.

StODDC0 HIS Pancr.

Nowadays, when n subscriber gots
SO mad, because IN editor differs
from hm on some trivial question,
that he diScOntinucs his paper, wo
remind HIM of the late Horace Gree
ley, the wcll-knOwn editor of the
New York Tribune. Passing down
Newspaper Row, III New York City
one morning, he met one of his read
crS, who exclaimed:
MIR. Greeley, after that article you
published this morning, intend to
stop your paper
ooh, no. said Mr.. Greeley, "don't
do that"
"Ies, sir; my mind is made up; I
intend to stop the paper"
The angry subscriber was not to bo
appeascd, and they separated. Late
i'll the afternoon the two met again
when Mr.. Greeley remarked:
"Mr. Thompson, am very glad
you did not carry out your threat
this morning"
"What do you mean?"
"Why, you said You were going to
stop my paper, didn't you?"
"And so [ did. Invent to the Office
"iNt l"''t So'h lhptl oIopDtu'
"You are surely mistaken. Ihave
just come from there, and the press
was running, and business was boom
ing"
Sir" said Thompson, very pomp-
louSly, 81 meant, / intended to stop
my subscription to the paper"
ooh, thundcr' rcjoined Greeley,
81 thought you were going to stop
the running of my paper, and knock
me out OF u living. My friend, let
me tell YOU something. One man is
