THE CRISIS AT PUEBLO.
The Panic Was Slow Getting There. but
1t Came at Last

Pueblo. Col. July 1.-The bank pam
ic did not reach Pueblo until yesterday.
But then it came with vengeance. \
week or more past large Withdrawals
have been made from the banks almost
daily. and the American National, when
it opened for business. found large
number of depositors waiting to take out
their money. The crowd continued to
grow and it soon beea me evident that
with the ready cash on hand they could
not hold out much longer, and about
10 o'clock the doors were closed. The
notice posted stated that the bank
would commence business soon again
and that the assets were $3.50, 600 and
the liabilities $3.50, 900.
Runs had already commenced on both
the Western National. of which V. L.
Graham is president, and the First Ma
tional. II. D. Thatcher. president The
Western closed its doors before noon.
They have deposits of over $1,000, 600
and have always been considered very
strong.
The Central National. of which Delos
L. Holden is president, closed ct noon.
This bank does n light business, but
Withdrawals of deposits had been so
heavy of late that they could not stand
any further run. and they thought it
best to close. Their assets are about
81 20 600 and liabilities $40. 900.

1t is a remarkable coincident that the
figure is intimately connected with
every great mining excitement of the
present century. The great Algerian
gold excitement came in 1909. In 1899
came the Mantazan mountain mining
craze. where it was reported that gold
nuggets as big as flour barrels had been
found. The California fever came in
1S49 and the Pixies Peak boom in 1883.
In 1869 the lead was struck that made
Virginia City a place of Importance,

gripman struggled and strove with all
his might to release the grip. failing in

cars became terribly alarmed and made
a rush for the door, but the conductor
INSTRUCTED their way and prevented
anybody from leaving.
