Dollar Savings Bank at Akron, O., or
dered Closed.
Akron. O., Oct 29-The Dollar Saw
lngs bank has been closed by order of
the directors until after the funeral
OF Mr.. Boron, the dead cashier. In
the meantime further investigation
OF his accounts is going on and a
movement is also on foot to have the
other banks Of the city take this in
stitution over. The sixty-day time
limit has been ordered enforced on all
savings accounts in the banks Of the
city.
Coroner Davidson announced that
he had decided that Fred Boron had
committed suicide, there being moth
Ing to substantiate the murder theory,
The revolver used was one kept at the
Dollar Savings bank of which Boron
was cashier and treasurer, and the
weapon was lying by his side when
he was found.
A deficit of $4,000 has been discov-
cred in the accounts of the Dollar
bank, according to members of the
directorate. This fact was kept hid
den from the directors, it is said, by
Boron borrowing money temporarily
whenever the directors counted the
money, while at other times he car
rled the notes as cash.

BIG SLUMP IN WHEAT
Drop Of Four Cents in Price on
the Chicago Board.
OTHER GRAINS AFFECTED

Financial Conditions at New York and
Precautionary Action Taken by Chi
cago Banks Responsible for the Fall
In Values.
Chicago, Oct 29.-The financial con-
dition in New York and the action Of
the local banks in deciding to issue
clearinghouse certificates and to de-
mand full legal notice on withdrawal
OF time deposits caused a weak mar
ket in all Of the grain pits. Wheat
within a short time after the opening
struck point cents lower than the
previous days close The opening for
December wheat was 971s to SO and
from this point the price slid down
to '96. At 1920 it was holding around
81. The selling was in quite large
volume, but the demand was slack
and buyers were to all appearances
extremely reluctant to take hold. Brief
rallies took place after the breaks,
but the principal buyers were shorts.
There was little buying for investment
and the refusal Of the banks to pay
out large amounts Of cash limited the
opportunities Of prospective purchas-
ers to put up the margins demanded
by the brokers.
Both corn and oats were weak for
the same reasons as affected the
wheat market.
