RUN ON BANK.

Chicago, August 6-The strike in
the packing houses was practically
lost sight Of yesterday in the excite
ment attending the run on the Drov-
ers' Trust and Savings bank, one Of
the stoekysrds institutions.
The rush Of the depositors 10 the
bank started early because Of an un-
founded rumor that one OF the pack
ers' representatives had drawn his
money from the institution and re.
ports that the bank was being used by
the packing companies as an adjunct
n paying of their new employees who
have taken the places OF the strikers.
All day long hundreds OF excited de-
positors, most of whom had only
small accounts in the bank, stood in
line 20 withdraw their deposits. When
closing time came there were st least
a thousand persons waiting for their
money. The officials OF the bank, de-
termined to meet the emergency called
in extra tellers. and the place was
kept open until every depositor who
presented himself at the window had
been satisfied. The paying windows
Of the bank were kept open until af-
ter O'Clock. Nearly two hours before
that time the last man in line had
been paid his deposit in full, and fresh
arrivals had ceased coming.
