SAVINGS BANK DOORS SHUT.
STOCKHOLDERS TOO SLOW IN
MEETING AN ASSESSMENT.

Its Capital stock S2OO,OOO md the As
sessment 80 Per Cent.--A Run
Started by the Announcement OF
the Tnrdincss of the Stockholders.
The Latter Objected to the ASSESS
ment on the Ground That II Was
Unnecessarily Lnrgc-Expect To
Pay in Full.
Chicago, ILL.,, April 5.-The Globe Saw
ings Bank did not open its doors this
morning. The Chicago Title and Trust
Company was appointed receiver. The
capital stock of the bank is $4,000. A few
days ago an assessment Of 50 per cent of
it's capital stock was made, and II is sup
posed the tardy response on the part OF
the stockholders Is the cause of the col-
lapse.
Most of the bank stock Is held by east
ern capitalists. BY permission of the
state auditor, and at tine suggestion OF
Examiner Jones' who went over the books
a short time ago, an assessment of so per
cent was levied on the stock of the bank.
This levy was objected to on the part OF
some " the stockholders residing in New
Hampshire and they have appointed a
committee to come to Chicago and inves-
tigate the cause of the assessment. The
committee win also advise as to the le-
gallty of the assessment
w. b. Erwin, assistant cashier of the
bank, says much smaller assessment
would have been all that was required,
but the larger one was made in order
to guarantee a larger working capital.
This, he says, Will make II possible for
the Globe bank to compete with the
larger Institutions.
The announcement Saturday of a pro-
test being made among the stockholders
against the payment of the assessment
led to the suspension. Publicity served to
start run on Saturday, and demands ag-
gregating $4,000 were made by depositors
before the day closed.
This run, together with the appointment
of a committee of Nashau, N. H., stock
holders. to test the legality of the assess
ment, led to a meeting of the officers of
the bank yesterday, when 1t was decided
to close. The application for receiver
was made TO Judge Tuley of the circuit
court, this morning, by Charles T..
Churchill, a director and cashier of the
bank Cashier Churchill, in an interview,
said: 'The assessment was made by order
of the state bank examiner who thought
that some Of our assets were not very
good. He objected to items amounting
to $lO3324, and ordered the same charged
up to profit and loss, and an assessment
OF 100000 made TO cover the deficiency.
According to our last statement our as
sets are over $730. 900 and our liabilities
about Se40.0O0 and consist of our capital
stock of 100000 paid up; savings deposits.

left his citizens clothing I'm the shop to
put on his overalls Pitts took advantage
of his absence and quickly donned the
suit of clothes, thus covering his convict
garb. Thus arrayed he walked boldly out
and passed the guards, who took him for
one of the bosses, and reached the river
safely There he found a boat in which
he rowed down the stream until he reach
ed a point opposite Ogeechee where he
went to the station and waited for the
down passenger train.

in the meantime through a rumor sent
out from the mill, that convict had es-
capped, and when he saw Pitts suspected
he was the man. lie presented a pistol
at him and ordered him to surrender,
which Pitts did without making any re-
