A FALSE REPORT

1t has been reported in various sec
ti0ns that the banks. in Cookeville
were all closed, or at least refused ia
cash checks. How such a false re.
port originated Is unknown. There
is nothing to it. All three of our
banks have been open for business all
the time, are now open and will re
main open, transacting all ordinary
lines Of business.
For few days they accepted for
eign checks for collection only. This
action was made necessary by the
fact that Nashville and other city
banks stopped paying currency for
foreign checks, giving out clearing
house certificates instead. Our banks
had plenty of currency all the time,
but did not think best to pay it out
on foreign checks and then take cer-
tif1cates when in the course of bust
ness these checks reached the city
banks. The city banks have resumed
paying checks in currency now, so
the whole situation is normal.
There is nothing the matter with
the Cookeville banks, nor any others
in Putnam county. They are all in
strong condition, with cash in their
vaul to handle all legitimate bust
ness.
Starting false reports about banks
or any other business interest is Sc
rious matter, and people should be
very careful not to do so.
