OLYMPIA BANK GOES DOWN. First National Closes-Depositors Will Be Paid. OLYMPIA, Jan. 26.-Special.-The First National bank of this city closed its doors this morning and the following notice was posted: "Owing to unexpected and heavy withdrawals of deposits, this bank is compelled to suspend until we can realize on our assets. Depositors will not lose one dollar. "A. A. PHILLIPS, President." The last statement made by the bank showed loans outstanding to the amount of $119,240.11: stocks, mortgages and real estate securities, $89,652.26; cash, $52,699.15; total, $261,591.52. There was then due creditors and depositors $141,891.12. President Phillips states he has no doubt that depositors will be paid speedily and in full. He said the cause of the suspension primarily was the withdrawal of state funds to the amount of $30,000. This fact probably alarmed small depositors, and for several days past money has been steadily withdrawn, and for this reason the management concluded to close and begin a process of liquidation. The state loses nothing by the failure. The county treasurer had $2,000 on deposit, but this is secured by bond from stockholders. Ladd & Tilton, of Portland, own nearly $14,000 in stock, and William McMicken, Samuel Willey, T. M. Reed and John F. Gowey are resident stockholders.

The First National Bank, of Olympia, closed its doors on Tuesday morning, with liabilities of about $100,000 and claiming assets of $230,000; the latter however is probably largely made up of loans and other paper, on which it would be difficult to raise much cash. The usual statement is made that all depositors wauld be paid in full. It is said that one party in Shelton has about $2000 in the wreck, and there are probably two or three others for minor amounts. Otherwise Shelton is not affected by the failure. which is due to the withdrawal of state and county funds by the new ačministration, causing the local depositions to make something of a run on the concern.
