NOTHING NEW IN
 BANK SITUATION
Movement for New Compa- ny Continues, But Moth
 ing Definite Known.

There appears to be no new devcl- opmen's in the progress of the move ment for the formation of a banking company to take over the business of the Bank of Pine Bluff, which closed it's doors on July 3.
 It was reported that meeting of stockholders of the Bank of Pine Bluff and of others interested would be held today, but men thought to be connected with the movement yes terday prCiessed to know nothing of a meeting today.
 The stockholders of the Bank Clerks Investment company, who ad- iourned subject to call after an ami mated meeting last week, have moi been notified of another gathering. It is understood that the plans of organ ization of the banking company con- templated the liquidation Of the Bank Clerks company and the re-invest- ment of the funds in the proposed new banking company. The objec tion of some of the stockholders in the Bank Clerks company to liquidat- ing the a@airs of that thriving enter prise prevented action at the meeting last week.
 While it is stated that negotiations are proceedings, at this time it ap pears that nothing definite as to the final outcome is known.
