CASHIER KILLS HIMSELF.

dered Closed.

Akron. o., Oct. 29.-The Dollar Saw.
ings bank has been closed + order of
the director, until after the funeral
or Mr. PSron, 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.

he had decided that Fred Boron had
committed suicide, there being moth

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

Boron borrowing money temporarily
whenever the directors counted the
money. while at other times he car
ried the notes as cash.

New York, Oct. 29.-The financial

market is advancing on the general
demand for securities at low prices

ported anywhere in New York and
even in the case of the Kansas City

The pressure upon the banks in
New York is distinctly abating. No
new runs have been reported and
those begun last week have dwindled
to almost insignificant proportions
Wall street has assumed practically
Its normal appearance, the crowds be-
ing no larger than in the days of
financial Quietude. The adoption of
clearinghouse certificates and the re.
fnsal to pay cash for boarding pur-
poses has produced no apparent ex-
element whatever in this city.
In order to assist in the measures
undertaken to relieve the strain on
the currency situation the leading life
insurance companies have decided to
grant thirty days extension of time
on the payment of premiums due on

BIC SLUMP IN WHEAT

The Chicago Board.
OTHER GRAINS AFFECTED
Financial Conditions at New York and
Precautionary Action Taken by Chi
caso Banks Responsible for the Fall
In Va,ues.

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 weak mar
ket in all of the grain pits. Wheat
within a short time after the opening
struck a point 4 cents lower than the
previous days close. The opening for
December wheat was 971a to SO and
from this point the price slid down
to 96. AT 10. 80 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.

The rule requiring savings bank de-

SOLELY AS A PRECAuTION
Boston clearinghouse to Issue Loar
Certificates.

Boston, Oct. 29.-The Boston Clear
inghouse association has decided tc
issue clearinghouse loan certificates
bearing interest at 7.3 per cert. The
high rate OF interest Is for the pur-
pose of retiring the certificates at the
earliest possible date The New York
rate is 6 per cent. The loan commit
tee of the clearinghouse win pass upon
collateral and approve the isssa Of the
certificates at rs per cent OF the mar
ket value of the securities.
Leading bank officials declared that
the adoption of the clearinghouse GER
tificates for the settlement Of bank
balances was solely as a precaution
against the withdrawal of money by
persons desiring to hoard it or to take
advantage Of high currency rates in
other cities.

tion in case of run. Since the banks
here could rot get cash from Kansas
City In case of a run they considered
the risk too great. The banks of this
city are carrying many of the small
banks over this territory. They have
arranged to issue clearinghouse Ger.
tificates until conditions improve.

mand for cash TO move the cotton crop.
