THREE FAILURES.
Three Denver Banks Conclude to suspend
for Seif-Protection. Causing Consider
able Excitement In Commercial Circles

Three Denver Banks Conclude to suspend
for Seif-Protection. Causing Consider
able Excitement In Commercial Circles
DENVER, Col, July 1s.-Commercial
circles are greatly excited over the
failure of three banks this morning.
The banks constituting the triple
failure are: The Colorado savings
bank, the Peoples savings bank and
the Rocky Mountain Dime and Dollar
savings bank. An estimate of the
total assets are sl,5OO,OOO and liza
bilities are placed at nearly
that amount. Charles Blakency
was made assignee of the Rocky Noun
tain Di me and Dollar savings bank, of
which f. II. Woodbury. is president
and G. f. Clark, cashier. No detailed
statement has been given out, but
from the books of the institution the
assets are sl56, ,s06.53 and the liabili-
ties sl05, ,585, ,32O. The officers of the
bank are positive IN their statement
that depositors will receive dollar for
dollar.
The Colorado savings bank, Of which
+. X. Atkins is president and c. o. At
kins cashier, in their statement to the
assignee, Alfred Buffers, place the open
accounts due depositors at s+35, l0S.50;
certificates OF deposit, s50,699.36; due
other banks, s3,236.95. The assets over
liabilities in what is declared to he good
commercial paper, well secured, is s73,-
O63. 70.
No statement OF the Peoples bank
can be secured as yet.
1t is understood that all the assign
ments We're preconcerted and were
done for self-protection and for the
protection of the depositors The
direct cause of the failures was the
strengency of the money market and
inability to realize on securities The
president of each bank declares that
each depositor will be paid in full and
the institutions will resume business
in a short time,
An incipent runhas been started on
the Denver savings bank. The bank is
taking advantage of the thirty and
sixty days notification provision and
is paying out no checks or drafts for
more than $40 each.

GEN KELTON'S FUNERAL.

The Dead Oficer Left Instructions that
He be Huried with the simplicity of -
Private Soldier, without the Attendance
of Carriages or Military Ceremonial.
WASHINGTON, July 1s.-The funeral
Of Gen. Kelton, eX-adiutant-general I.
S. a. and governor of the Soldiers
home, will be marked by perfect sim
plicity in all its features He directed
especially that there should be no mill
tary ceremonies and that the use of
carriages should he avoided He de-
sired to be buried like an enlisted man,
and specified that his colin should he
the pine box generally used in the cas-"
of privates. Religious services were
held at the governor residence in the
Soldiers home grounds at o'clock
last evening instead of to-day, as oriEi-
nally intended. There will be no hon
orary pall-baarcrS
One of Gen. Kelton's objections to
having an expensive funeral was that
he died Il poor man, and did not want
to cmbarrass his family with debts in
Cured by himself in any way.
The impression in army circles is
that Gen. u. 5. Stanley, retired. will
succeed Gen. Kclton as governor of the

WITHOUT WARNING.

Chicago Street Car Run Down iyv q
TraJn-T Three Lives Lost and Many In
iured-Tiic Dead md Dying Buried Un-
6er tho Debris of the Demolished Car
Sent to the Morgue aud HuspitsI-Ar-
rests Made.
CHICAGO July lS.--Forty- street
at the crossing of the Grand Trunlc
railroad was the scenc,y c,ycstcrday, of an
other accident whereby three lives
were lost and many people injured. A
lIalsted-street horse car was run into
and hurled thirty feet to one side. 1t
was filled with men and women, forty
Six passengers being on board.
The collision occurred at 1880 o'clock.
The soutl-bound Halsted-strect car
was crowded and men were standing
ON the foot-boards. The conductor
was Frank Barnett and the driver
Charles Stalneclter.
Al Forty-ninth street is net work
of tracks, and The crossing has always
been regarded as dangerous one. A
long freight train n, ing west iPd just
| passed, and the tower;oan, teorge
Barmcn, had just raised the gates
This was taken as signal that the
way was clear, and Stalnecker whipped
up his horses as he started TO drive
across the tracks. Conductor Barnett
had gone ahead and failed to notice
the passenger train because OF
the freight train ahead. Yet.
as he says, he could do nothing. He
at once lowered the gates, but he was
too late, for the street car was already
on the tracks and the passenger train
was only few feet distant. II was
running at a lively rate of speed, it is
snid, and crashed into the side of the
car. The latter was turned and then
was thrown thirty feet through the
air Few of the passengers had any
warning of the accident. Those on
the fcut-board nearest the passenger
train saw it coming and jumped in
time to save themselves from injury
and perhaps death.
But the majority Of those on board
were carried with the demolished car,
and fell to the ground together, some
with badly bruised bodies and others
dead. The car, broken into many
pieces, buried those who had been rid
ing in it, and as the passenger train
plunged ahead there were many cries
of pain and agony to he heard.
Perkins and Dillon were friEhtfully
mangled. A piece of timber had been
forced down the lattcr's throat, break
ing his jaw. There were also two
women killed. but nothing on either
would indicate their name. The dead
We're at once taken to the county
morguc and the injured were placed in
carriages and driven away.
The passenger train on the Great
Northern was in charge of Conductor
John Kcrneer. Engineer +. w. Jones
and Fireman James Campbell Engi-
neer Jones said that he did not see the
car until the hCrses were in front of
the train, and that he could not have
stopped in time to avert the accident.
Police Captain Ward arrested Engi-
nccr Jones, Firemen Campbell and IL
man named Henry Hughes, who was
riding in the cab of the engine. They
will be held at the station until after
the coroner's inquest.
