BIN ON MANY CHICAGO BANKS.
Excited DepOsitOrs C1amOr For Their
Money.


Money.
CHICAGO, June g. Wild and I'M
founded rumors of impending financial
disaster caused a senseless run on many
of the banks in Chicago Monday. Those
chiefly affected were the Prairie State
National bank, the State Bank OF COM
merce, the Hibernian Savings bank, the
Union Trust Company's bank and the
Illinois Trust Savings bank. Under the
circumstances it is no small tribute to
the sagacity, soundness and foresight OF
Chicago bankers to say that they all
withstood the strain. Where the rumors
sprang from is mystery. Whether
malice or ignorance inspired the rumors
is unknown, but whichever 1t was the
effect was instanteous and widespread.
Fortunately the effect was confined to
uncomfortable crowding in the banking
rooms, to pushing and hauling among
excited depositors seeking to Withdraw
their money, and to the gathering OF
curious crowds upon the sidewalks out
side the banks.
