CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 6.-In spite OF the fact
That the Illinois Trust aud Savings bank re-
NAMED open till o'clock this morning to
give anxious depositors chance
TO draw their funds, new line
began to form before s o'clock
this morning, and at TO- the hour for open
ing, between 1909 and 1,500 people were
waiting at tho doors with savings books
The crowd was several times larger
than at any time yesterday. The
bank is considered absolutely sound.
The assets are figured up at over
SSS,OOO, 900 and its stockholders are estimated
600.
At the other savings banks the runs
winch began yesterday seem to have in
creased in size
During the time when the run on the bank
this afternoon was hottest, Phillip ID.
Armour, whose Office is across the street
from the bank, sent out some of his clerks to
bring into his Office u hundred or more of
the most excited depositors When his
Office was crowded with them Mr. Armour
made short speech telling them that the
bank was all right and assuring them that
they stood no danger of losing any of their
money.

Financial Troubles of the Grant Locomo
Worl1s Merely Ie

Financial Troubles of the Grant Locomo-
tive Works Merely Temporary.
CHICAGO, H., June 6.-The Grant Locomo-
tive works made a voluntary assignment tc
day. The assignces, Messrs. Ackerman &
Wilson, have taken charge of the extensive
plant of the company, but the shops will not
be shut down. On April 80, 1893, tho assets
of the company were 81, ,l5l, ,O2O, and liabii-
ties s4l0,950. The cause of the company s
embarrassment is that it has invested all it's
capital stock in its plant. 1t has been work.
ing upon large order for locomotives and
has tied up large amount of the assets in
them. AS they cannot be realized
upon until delivered, and as the
company has been delayed and him
dered in the completion of the locomotives
by the strike, which has been going on at it's
works for the past three months, and on
account of the stringency in the money mar
ket, the stockholders today decided that all
parties interested will be better protected
by putting the property in the hands of an
assignee.
The company is employed on a contract to
build tifty-tiv engines for the Chicago,
Burlington Quincy railroad. This con-
tract announced to over $3.50, 900, and when
the strike took place all of this money was
tied up. President Fenner said tonight this
was one of the things that compelled the as
signment and that as soon as the company
could realize on its contract with the Burl.
ington it would be on its feet again.

Now York Bankers Express Themselves on
the Subject.
New YORK, June G.-Local bankers and
financiers warmly approve of President
Cleveland's announcement through the AS
sociated press of his intention to call an ex-
ira session of congress to deal with the sill
yer question. President Wright of the
National Park bank, to reporter today,
said that he thought 1t very wise on the part
of President Cleveland to call an extra ses-
sion Of congress. The people, he believed
had sufficiently instructive lesson on the
present law and were ready for it's repeal
MIR. Wright said he felt satisfied that
the presidents announcement will have an
excellent effect on the country.
President Williams of the Chemical Ma
tional bank heartily approved of President
Cleveland'S intention. Mr.. Cleveland he
said, "has done the right thing at the right
time" Mr.. Williams said he believed with
some one else who had said: IF all the sill
yer which the United States has bought and
stored away ana put into circulation through
the medium of silver certificates and treas
ury notes was moved out into the middle of
the Atlantic ocean and there sunk the loss
to this country would be less than the loss
that has already occurred through the opera
tion of the Sherman silver law and the un-
certainty that it has caused"
Mr.. Williams declared that all of the pres
emu nnanclal IrOuDle was caused by the Sill
yer law. Mr.. Cleveland has had to take the
financial situation as he found it; he did not
make it, Mr.. Williams feels confident that
the president will do all he can to improve
the financial situation.
Among Others interviewed, who expressed
themselves as favorable to President Cleve-
lands intended action, were Simmons of the
Fourth National bank Randolph of the Con-
tinental National bank, Tappan of the Gal

ROGERS, Ark, June 6,-The bandits, who
successfully robbed the Peoples bank at
Bentonville yesterday, seem to have made

after the robbery had been committed, the
sheriff and posse started in pursuit of the
robbers. About twelve miles west of Ben

forming the village Of Decatur. Here the rob
bers continued their depredations by robbing
the stores. While thus engaged the sheriff

sued, three of the citizens horses being
shot, but no one was injured. The sheriff
and most of his men then gave up the pur-
suit and returned TO Bentonville, Three or
four men, however, continued in pursuit, but
it is not believed they will meet with sue

haunts In Indian territory. While at De-

STRIKING COAL MINERS.
Prospects for "a Settlement of Their DIFF
ficulties Very Good.

nculties Very Good.
RIou HILL, Mo, June 6.-On almost every
train coal miners from Pittsburg, Kan,
arrive here to do their best TO influence
Rich Hill miners to strike. Up TO late
hour last night the street corners were
crowded with miners discussing the situa-
tion.
prominent miner who has had q large
influence with all the miners hero declared
today that there was a small possibility of
strike here.
Eight years ago, when we had our strike
here" said he, 1--WE called on the miners of
Pittsburg and other Kansas points and they
refused to aid u.s. saying that it was not
their fight, and now that we have got a
chance TO get even we will take advan-
tage of it, We have nothing to gain by strik-
ing and all to lose, and we would be pack
of fools to strike"
The mine owners are confident their men
will not strike.
Usage CRY, Kan, June 6--The prospects
for an early settlement of the trouble in the
mining districts are unusually bright today.
President Walters of the Miners association,
who returned to this city from Scranton
early this morning, received telegram
from L. M, Lacey, secretary OF the Miners
union, stating that the operators would
arbitrate the question on Wednesday.
Mr.. Walters was sanguine that the
strike would be of short duration, and
already considered it a victory, as the prin-
cpal point is a desire for recognition for the
union. Walters will leave here for Pitts
burg today to take part in the arbitration.
PITTsBURG, Kan, June 6,-Minard e. Co
started their works today by paying their
men the schedule prepared prior TO the
strike. Arnott also opened up this morning
| by paying at the rate Of S225 per day
which price will rule until the difference!
