KANSAS CITY BANK CLOSES
The Missouri National Closes Its
Doors by Order ofIts Directors.

Kansas City, Nov. 3O.-The Missouri
National bank closed its doors this
morning owing to heavy Withdrawals
Of one of its principal depositors. De
posits are 81, 500. 900, but a statement Of
the banks assets and liabilities are not
yet obtainable. The bank was classed
as one of the strongest in the south
west
shortly after III o'clock the following
notice was placed on the door:
"Bv order of the directors this bank
has been closed and is in the hands Of
the comptroller
This action was precipitated by the
withdrawal Of $4,000 in one lump by
Helm, the wealthy local brewer. whose
action was quickly followed by others
The last statement issued by the bank
showed deposits of 81 .561 900 and cash
and exchanges amounting to $546 600.
It's officers are D. v Rieger. presi-
dent and d. r. Coviugton,- cashier In
the panic of July, 1893. the Missouri
National was one of the local insutu-
tions to go under, but it soon re-
opened.
The bank had been open today for
lust one hour when the comptroller
took charge of it's affairs. The closing
came as a surprise to the officers. They
were thoroughly disconnected by the
action and too excited to make state

A bsolutely no figures on the assets or
liabilities are obtainable. Up to late
this afternoon the officials fatty re-
fused to make a statement regarding
the banks condition, or whether IL
would likely resume business. The gen
eraI opinion however, is that this sec
ond failure will ultimately end in the
bank winding UP its affairs
Two causes are assigned for the sus-
pension. One is slow collections The
other reason. and the prime reason was
that there have been diSSensions anong
the directors These were of such char
acter that they finally led to a elashlng

best to close the doors of the bank and
have things Strengthened out.

An adequate idea Of the damage
done by the 81. Louis cyclone can be
formed when it is stated that if all
the houses damaged and blown
down were ON both sides Of the one
street that street would be just
eighty-fve miles long. This figure
is given by the street commissioner
who has been through the entire dis
tricts and from the reports Of his
general superintendent who has cut
. roadway through the eighty-five
miles of streets. In addition to this
there were many more streets OBJ
structed by wires and the like which
are not counted in the total. The
storm district comprises an era OF
six square miles, and the extreme
limits were three miles east and west
and two miles north and south.
