per cent. annually. }. V. Thompson is
president.
A large crowd gathered in front of
the bank, and a few minutes before
noon a notice was posted on the door
announcing that the institution was
closed by order of the directors. This
action followed a long conference be-
tween the directors, Bank Examiner
Gerald Smith and representative of
the comptroller of the currency. Pres
ident Thompson said the bank would
not reopen until there was enough
money on the counter to pay all de-
positors.
The bank has a capital of $1OO, 900

bank paid an extra dividend of 700

day, caused the closing of the bank.

ed to be one of the richest men in
the State, owner of vast coal lands and
in many enterprises. He was widely
known in business circles and became
known in politics whe he was a can
didate for the Republican nomination
for governor against Edwin S. Stuart.
The First National of Uniontown

Germans may follow up their victory
