For down the valley black;

Drives hlindly, knowing not OF whence OF

And through the driven rain
One strong swift light sweeps PLAIN.
The portent OF the train
That brings you hither.
Through wind and rain and night

An Atlanta Bank Closed.

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 1.-THE Merchants
Bank, one of the oldest and for many
years soundest financial institutions in
this city, closed this morning. A notice
posted on the door simply stated that the
bank had assigned to j. G.. Oglesby, George
w. Scott and George Winship and that it
was believed that all depositors would be
paid in full. The failure of the bank was
due to the withdrawal of deposits within
the last few days, caused by Il rumor to the
who had $4,000 on deposit there, has been
asked by the bank officials not to check
any of this money out. The officials deny
that any such request was made. All of
Stewards checks were honored. He with
drew the $4,000. and that, coupled with
other Withdrawals caused by the rumor,
occasioned embarrassment and it was
deemed best to go into liquidation. The
amount owed depositors is SITE, 900. There
is no run on any of the other banks.
