ing on its business credit, together
with a combination of unfortunate and
unforeseen circumstances over which
the management could have no control.
For instance: when bank in a
neighboring city suspended few
weeks since, some heavy depositors OF
the New Farmers Bank, living not far
from our sister city, withdrew their
deposits and when this same bank
opened again, other depositors, living
in the same neighborhood also with
drew their deposits to loan to the sus-
pended bank. Thus, the New Far
mers Bank, from no fault on its part,
lost thousands of dollars of deposits
because of the failure of another bank,
and because of of its reopening--no
bank could stand such strains let it be
ever SO sound.
The run on the other banks after
the New Farmers had closed its doors
was senseless. The Traders Deposit
caught it heaviest on Thursday as it
happened. 1t was totally unlocked
for, the President having gone
that very morning to look after
his farming interests in Bath county,
one director going out of the State on
trip and others to their business
calls in one direction and another, all
knowing that the bank was sound,
and never dreaming of trouble; and
when the storm burst with such sud-
denness and fury ii was as complete
surprise to the officers as to the busi-
ness men of the city. The attacks on
he Exchange and the MI. Sterling
National on Friday morning were
more savage than had been on the
Traders, but fortunately these bauks
had been able take thought for the
situation and be prepared for the mob
(for it was little else) when it did
come. THE Mt. STERLING BANKS
ARE ALL RIGHT. The Mt. Sterling
National and the Exchange are as
solid as a rock. The Traders De-
posit, which closed with more money
ON hand than the law demands, and
more than it often had in its vaults
during the conduct of its legitimate
business, will be open in few days.
It will be open, too, with much more
money than it closed with. Several
of its friends, we are informed, offered
large deposits while its doors were
closed for business, determined to show
to the business world their faith in its
integrity.
It shall he our aim to induce some
of our better informed bankers from
time to time, to write popular articles
on the conduct Of banks that our peo-
pie may become better informed as
their mode of doing business. We
shall ask the Cashier of each bank in
Mt. Sterling for such an article, and
will take pleasure in giving it to our
readers.

Traders Deposit Bank-It VIII Re-

Sume.
lthad been reported that the Traders
Deposit Bank would resume yester-
day, July 81. This in. ordinary times
as far as dollars and cents are con-
cerned, could have been done. But
with financial clouds lowering it was
demed best to take other steps. In an
interview with Mr.. 4. G. Orear, Vice.
President, we learned facts which we
think of interest. On the question of
resumption there are not a few men
who think the one and only thing nee
essary would be to open doors and
begin business, which is very wide
mistake. The first step taken by the
bank was to offer guarantee to its
depositors, thereby assuring them of
their own faith in their institution
and giving additional security.
AS it now is the bank has liabilities
amounting to $l47,0C0, with assets
amounting to $375,0OO. The directory
and stockholders will add their person
al backing, increasing the security to
what in our opinion win amount to
from $750,000 to 100000. Papers
have been circulated and the depositors
have gladly taken up the matter, and
already more than half In both num-
ber and amount have given their con-
sent to cancellation OF assignment and
resumption on terms proposed by the
bank. TO a person who knew with
what amount of cash this bank had
been run, 1t seems that the suspension
was unnecessary. But with an un-
ccasing and quiet draw at the close of
business Thursday, they mad paid out
over their counter about $4,000 more
than they had taken in, and the officers
were afraid of an Increased run the

THE PEOPLE AND THE BANKS.

The financial squall that struck our
city on Thursday was bitter one, but
IL soon expended its force. Nothing
can better illustrate the folly of people
thar the senseless attack upon the
credit Of institutions that are perfectly
sound and that are able to meet all
the obligations Of legitimate busi-
mess, es they shall accrue, with abso-
lute promptness. The suspension of
the New Farmers Bank was clearly
fracabie to number of rumors,
started no one could tell how, reflect

The Banks of Pineville are, we are
glad to say, perfectly safe. There is
no danger of run being made on
them. We might add very good
reason for no run being started, and
that is that the deposits are entirely

such precedings. Messenger.

the head. The common way of secur-
ing them is to put an iron clasp around
one of the hind ankles and fasten it
with a paddock and to this clasp is at

which is riveted to one of the tent
pegs. Then the horse is free to rove
about and he cannot be stolen.

Several of the New York bankers
decided to extend to the large ex-
change houses every facility for the
importation of gold, and on the
stength Of this nearly $3,000,000 was
ordered for shipment Saturday from
the other side. On Change the day
was full of encouragement. The
movement in investment securities
was the heaviest in years, and prices
advanced as suddenly and rapidly as
they had declined. Over 10000 shares
were sold to freign buyers alone,a and it
is estimated that Saturdays steamers
took out no less than $4,000 shares.
On all sides there is decidedly better
feeling, and the belief is expressed
that the movement of gold from
Europe would soon assume large pro-
portions.

has issued proclamation forbidding

they overcame the authorities in hang
