VALLEY PEOPLE
INVESTIGATING BANK

Tuesday afternoon number of
depositors of the State Bank and
Trust Co. held a meeting in Carson
and the amounts represented by
them aggregated 100000, many
of the gentlemen who were present
being from Carson Valley, says the
Appeal.
They decided at the meeting to
withhold any action until the Kir-
man proposition to take over the
bank had been decided but that
if Kirman and associates failed to
make good or decided that that the
banks securities were not of sulfi-
cient value to take the risk that
they would then demand a
guarantee if not forth coming an
attachment suit for 100000 will
be filed.
This is the first definite action of
the depositors against the bank
and comes more from the fact that
the president of fhe institution and
the directors have failed to publish
any statement of the results OF
their last meeting held in Carson.
1t was understood that an an
nouncement would be made as
soon as the board met after the
election of officers for the coming
year, but this statement has ut
terly failed to materialize and the
depositors who have large amounts
in tn. institution have decided to
investigate for themselves.
