In explanation. OF our action A. above
we desire to say that we have done thi.
as precautionary measure FOR tn,
protection Of our depositors and those
who have borrowed from Us.
Clearing house associations through
out the country including those Of View
York. Chicago. st. Louis. Louisville,
Evansville Henderson Paducah. Nash
Vile and others have adopted similar
resolutions which has resulted in pre-
venting the circulation Of currency
throughout the country. =
: In view Of the fact that about % per
cent. Of the business of the country IS
carried on By checks through sthe
Banks. It IS necessary that I'VE keep
deposits on hand in the money centers
or business centers of this section, and
we have our cash all deposited with
Banks of Evansville, louisville, New
York and ST. Louis. except enough 20
meet the ordinary business require
ments OF this section. and in view of
the fact that we cannot withdraw our
cash from our Banks of deposit until
money begins to circulate again, we
feel that It Is necessary to limit fthe
amount that any one of our deposltors
may draw out TO 10 per cent. of the
amount he or she might have on hand
on the morning of Nov. 7. Each one
can draw out this 10 per cent. lalot-
ment at any time he may desire, but
no more than that until our association
may feel justified in returning to'the
normal method Of conducting business.
Our depositors may pay their ac-
counts by drawing checks on our Banks
to their creditors, which checks will be
honored, credit given for same to the
person who may deposit it.
We believe our depostors will real
ize that this is the best move that we
can take under the present condition for
the reason that if we continue paying
checks in full our money would soon be
exhausted and we would be COM
PEELED to enforce the collection of all
our notes, which would cause a great
hardship on the citizens and business
of our county, and result in a great
depreciation of every character of
property.
The people can bring this condition
to an end much more quickly by using
checks wherever possible and deposit
ing the actual money in the banks.

W w. Jameson, of this city, and
j. P. Grove, Of Tionesta. and w. w.
Grove, Of jamestown, N. Y, have
probably made a rich strike in Lo.
gan county, Ky. They have leases
on 1000 acres OF land there. Last
week they drilled in their No. 8 well
on this property and there is every
indication that they have made a
rich oil strike. Both of the first
wells showed up for small producers
and this well, which is several To-
cations in advance Of No. 2, is
showing up SO good that they are
confident that they have at last tap
ped the pay streak. The wells have
not yet been put to pumping, so that
all estimates of what they will do
are mere guess work. Their opera
lions are at least a hundred miles
from any other oil development and
have been eagerly watched by the oil
men OF that section.

Robbins was arrested at the in
stance of W. H. Lewis, the manager
