SEVEN SHANGHAI BANKS
FAIL; PANIC FOLLOWS
Prince Regent Urged to Send
SS.O0O.OO0 for Aid

VICTORIA, B. c., Oct 29-Seven
banks in Shanghai including several
large ones, have failed, and a financial
panic has resulted. The steamship IT,
tan, which brought this news, left Yo-
kohama October Is.
Following the failure of the banks
graphed to the prince regent that un-
less aid was given at once many man.
ufacturers would cease operations and
more than 100000 men would be made
idle. The prince regent telegraphed
100000 taels and is being urged to send
100000 more.
One of the closed banks has
liabilities of 12.o00.000 taels and has
p branches throughout the empire. 1t
has on deposit s4,000,000 of customs
revenue and s3,000,ooo of Shanghai
funds, none of which Is secured. Japan
csc bankers state that among the failed
banks are three of China's largest
The panic is stated to be due to a
change of taotais. The former one was
removed for irregular practices and his
deposits in the principal banks. pre-
the banks closing
A short time ago a panic was averted
by the foreign banks assisting these
Chinese banks, which lost heavily by
reason of the collapse of the rubber
boom. The panic will be seriously felt
throughout the orient and the Japanese
cotton spinning industry will suffer
exceedingly.
