wish some other candida but who
fear the consequences Of aligning them

Makes the Statement.


Seymour. the known short
age in the bank going over the $780,
600 mark, with an unverified rumor
on the street that it is near 100000,
and with President Evans admitting
that depositors will lose, the situa-
ton here is far worse than has been
believed. Add to the above facts the
defeat of the bonds for the new school
bril6ing because of the trouble, the
plan to build new Presbyterian
church abandoned, and the new
water works gone glimmering, and
Seymour's cup Of trouble is indeed
full
Depositors are growing more Nan6
more frantic and banks in neighbor-
ing towns are scalping certificates.
Ware is growing worse according to
reports from the home. and more
sensational even than this the names
of other men involved are coming out.
Charles Meyers, a farmer living sorth-
west of here, made an assignment of
all he owns to the bank, his property
including several thousand dollars
worth of real estate and live stock.
1t is declared that prominent local
attorney has given over $4,000 in
cash to satisfy in part at least his in.
debtedness to the bank.

pointed receiver by Judge Evans at
