not getting it back are unfounded. The

Administration building. at 9 O'Clock
AT 1925 came telephone message from
Cashier Baden at the down town Office
OF the suspended bank, to close the doors
OF the exposition branch. This was done
and soon there was a line of anxious,
com mPlaining depositors, some represent
ing themselves, and others States or
concerns. They wanted to get in close
touch to the teller'S window, but he
talked to those who understood En-
gish in a reassuring way and some went
away. The paying teller said he would
have paid checks presented before the
doors were closed, but had not the COM
bina tion to the vault. Treasurer Sea-
berger of the exposition was an early
caller. He said he had small account
with the bank, but was confident every
depositor would be paid in full and
quickly.
The question of a successor to the
emical National bank at the Fair is
one to be decided by the directory t its
meeting. The United States govern
ment, the national commission, Il he Miss

IN the bank. The Chemical bank paid
$1O,OOO for the privilege of doing busi-
