Description

Newspapers (Jan 1902) report the Euclid Avenue Trust Company of Cleveland 'suspended'. No article describes a depositor run on Euclid itself or a reopening; other banks (People's Bank of Painesville) made assignments or suspended because Euclid was their chief correspondent. Because there is no evidence of reopening and the suspension caused correspondent failures, I classify as suspension_closure but the long-term outcome (receiver/takeover) is not explicitly stated in these excerpts.

OHIO BANK SUSPENDS. Painesville Institution Makes General Assignment to Avoid a Run. The Peoples Bank of Painesville, O., of which Dr. H. C. Brainard, of the suspended Euclid Avenue Bank, of Cleveland, is vice president, and C. H. Stewart, director, made a general assignment Saturday to Harley Barnes, vice president of the Pioneer Trust Company. The action was brought about by the suspension of the Euclid Avenue Trust Company, which, it is understood, was the chief correspondent. It is not thought that this bank will be badly crippled, as it numbers among the stockholders the most stable business men of the town.
