Atlas firm will reach stCo. 900.
Great excitement prevails in st. Thorn

that he expected the depositors would
be paid In full. The money loaned on

Yesterday. has been prepared and shows
q very substantial estate. The assets
consist largely OF stocks. which. OF
course, have q ~nuctuating value. but II
Is understood that in case OF careful
handling the suspension will no tresult
in any disastrous losses to creditors.
Excitement over the suspension has
subsidized as quickly as dt arose on the
announcement yesterday that the doors
were closed. Deposit accounts range
from small amounts up to thousands.
but In very many cases depositors have
materially reduced their accounts or
withdrawn them wholly within the past
