Description

The National Bank (of Ashland, Neb.) suspended payment/failed in early July 1893 (reported July 5–7) with impaired capital (about 20% impairment). It was permitted to reopen after meeting Comptroller/Controller conditions and making its capital good; reopening reported Sept 5–27, 1893. There is no clear contemporaneous description of a depositor run on this specific bank in the articles — failures/embarrassment of related institutions (American Loan & Trust / American Savings Bank) appear to have precipitated the suspension.

play a part in the selection of the Speaker. The announcement that there is a possibility that Bland may be replaced as chairman of the Committee of Coinage, Weights and Measures has them to renewed efforts. Stories of an attempted combination between the free silver advocates and the Populists to place a candidate for the speakership in the field unless they have an assurance from Crisp that Bland will be retained at the head f"the committee are floating about. but are not generally credited, for, though it is openly said by some that Bland will not again be chairman of the committee, there are no facts that would warrant such an assertion. Crisp has not even intimated such a thing. Among the more conservative the impression is that Bland will lead the committee. This would not, however, indicate that the entire committee will remain. It is known that Crisp has made absolutely no pledges one way or the other. Senator Harris, President pro tem. of the Senate, says there will be filibustering in the Senate against the bill to rapeal the Sherman law. Comptroller Eckels states that from information given out in his office yesterday he directed Bank Examiner Wilson to take charge of the First National Bank of Albuquerque, N. Mex., through a mistake. The name of the failed bank is the Albuquerque (N. Mex.) National Bank. Five national banks failed yesterday and this morning, as reported to Comptroller Eckels. They were: The American National Bank of Paeblo, Colo.; Central National Bank of Pueblo, Colo.; Puget Sound National Bank at Everett, Wash.; National Bank of Ashland, Ashland, Nebr., and the First National Bank of Winston, N. C. Comptroller Ecke's has directed Examiner Brown to assume charge of the two above-named failed banks at Pueblo, Examiner Horine of the failed Ashland Bank, Examiner Cleary of the failed Everett Bank and Examiner Carscadon of theifailed Winston Bank. The Comptroller of the Currency has been informed that the First National Bank of Los Angeles and the Southern California Bank of the same place, both of which suspended recently, will open their doors again for business within a few days. The Comptroller has also been informed that the First National Bank of San Diego, which reopened for business yesterday, has received deposits to the amount of $25,000, as against withdrawals to the amount of $8000.

Special to the RECORD-UNION. WASHINGTON, July 7.-The Star says: While members of Congress and leaders in financial matters are discussing various plans by which the present situation can be relieved, an official of the Treasury Department is quietly preparing statistics and histories of financial transactions as a benefit to the Administration to guide it in its own views on the vital subject. Several plans have been suggested to Secretary Carlisle. Among them is one which contemplates an entire change in the money system of the United States. In short, the plan is to pass a specie resumption Act redeeming all the various forms of money now in use in the country, and issuing instead a United States Treasury note whose value shall always be fixed. There is at present nine different forms of money in circulation, and the fact of the wide difference between the value of gold and silver coins, while they are theoretically of parity, is one of the causes which suggested the plan. The national banks during the past two months increased their circulation nearly $7,000,000. Orders for new circulation to the amount of $2,277,000 have been received thus far this month by Comptroller Eckels. The gold reserve at the close of business to-day was $96,943,921. CRISP'S POSITION ON SILVER. NEW York, July 7.-The Commercial Advertiser's Washington special says: When Speaker Crisp left here some weeks ago he was chagrined with the President's rejection of his wishes regarding certain offices, and he said the Administration will have to seek him in the future, and it did. In a short while he was summoned to Washington to confer with Carlisle. The silver men are whispering that if Crisp goes against them it will be because he has surrendered to the President's offer of patronage. Crisp maintains a diplomatic silence, but there is no room to doubt that he will sustain the President. BETTER FEELING AT NEW YORK. NEW York, July 7.-Interviews with Wall-street operators show a certain degree of cheerfulness over the first indications of an improvement in the monetary situation. Leading bankers say the demands for currency for shipment are not considerable and the requests for rediscounts from the country have become much lighter. A gratifying fact is noted that the country banks are beginning to pay off New York correspondents. A leading bank within the past day or two has begun to take up commercial paper at 10 to 15 per cent., according to grade and time. Hardly anything is doing as yet in time money. Well-informed operators do not look for more than temporary ease in the money market till about sixty days from now. RUN ON A SAVINGS BANK. WATERTOWN (N. Y.), July 7.-A run started on the Jefferson County Savings Bank yesterday. The bank continued paying all demands until after the closing hours, and it is believed the run is over. AN ASHLAND (NEB.) BANK FAILS. OMAHA, July 7.-The National Bank of Ashland, an offshoot of the American Loan and Trust Company, has failed. It had a capital of $100,000. A DES MOINES MERCHANT IN TROUBLE. DES MOINES (Ia.), July 7.-Attachments aggregating $20,000 and mechanics' liens to the amount of $89,000 have been filed against Lowry W. Goode of the Highland Park Land Company, Des Moines Electric and Water Power Company and other concerns with which Goode is prominently connected. Goode claims with time he will be able to pay. Theamountinvolved is probably $200,000. TWO MEAT ESTABLISHMENTS FAIL. NEW YORK, July 7.-The New Jersey Sheep and Wool Company and the Genesvoort Market Sheep Company, Jersey City, have failed. It is feared the failures will involve the failure of many small concerns. The liabilities exceed $500,000. The assets are not shown.

Pine Bluif, Ark., July 7 (Special).-The Arkansas State Bank. of Stuttgart, and the Arkansas Farmers and Traders' Bank, of Dewitt. near this city, have closed their doors. Neither institution had large assets and depositors will not suffer to any considerable degree. Both banks were under the same management, and the recent failure of the Stutigart and Kansas River Railway, of which T. H. Leslie, the father of C. K. Leslie, the cashier of the banks, was president, precipitated the collapse. Red Cliff, Col., July 7.-The Eagle County Bank has suspended payment. Its capital is $12,000 and its assets, which are estimated at $40,000, are considered worth 100 per cent. The liabilities are $34, 000.

D., and the Livingston National Bank of Livingston, Mont.. have closed their doors to business. Bank Examiner Diamond has been ordered to take charge of the Hot Springs bank. and Bank Examiner Flynn will take charge of the Livingston bank.

Financial and Commercial. The National bank of Ashland, at Ashland, Neb., resumed business in an excellent condition. The Exchange Bank at Wheeting, W.Va., which suspended last month, has reopened under a new organization and largely increased capital. This resumption will release about $900,000 which has been tied up. The Rocky Mountain Dime and Dollar Savings Bank, of Denver, opened for business. This is the first of the four failed savings banks to resume. Deposits amounted to fully five times the withdrawals.
