IN part:
THE bank failures which have occurred
have been entirely due to local conditions
and in almost every instance TO defective
policy in the Institutions failing This is
strikingly SO in the case Of the National
bank OF Roanoke, Va. and as much so in
the failed bank In Texas some weeks since.
The same may be said Of all the Ma

Imagine the same thing will hold good In

have ceased 70 10 business.
The banking institutions Of the South
made. with here and there au exception. n
remarkably good showing during the panic
OF 1898. and the financial i'sircss there
was acute No such conditions now exist
nor VIII occur on the one hand. while on
tho other. during the years since then,
liquidation on bad paper has been woedei
our and the banks are stronger in cash
means. There is no basis for any exnec.
tation that either now or In the future
