TELLS ROUTINE BANK FAILURES BANKING DEPARTMENT STATES HOW GUARANTY FUND IS APPLIED. Pierre, Aug. 12.-State Bank Examiner John Hirning gives out a statement in regard to procedure under the state banking law in paying depositors of banks which fail. He makes this statement to correct misleading articles which have been published in relation to the Bon Homme county bank, now in the hands of the department. "My attention has been called to certain newspaper dispatches appearing in Minneapolis and other papers, under Sioux Falls headline, relating to the suspension of the Bon Homme county bank, of Scotland, and it is evident from such dispatches that the writers are not familiar with the operation of the depositors' guaranty fund law in the state of South Dakota. The dispatches seem to give the impression that in case of a failure of a state bank, the depositors will have to wait until the assets of the bank are liquidated, and if after liquidation an insufficient amount is realized to pay the depositors in full, the guaranty fund is then drawn upon to pay the balance. This is not the fact. "When a state bank is closed in South Dakota, the banking department immediately ascertains the total liabilities to depositors, including the drafts afloat. The guaranty fund is drawn upon immediately for the full amount of deposits, together with the amount of drafts outstanding, and the depositors are paid immediately in full, regardless of the condition of the assets. The department then proceeds to liquidate the assets of the bank, and the amount realized therefrom is turned back into the guaranty fund. In the case of the suspension of the Bon Homme county bank of Scotland, checks have been mailed for all claims for deposits or drafts that have been filed and approved with this department to date. "The fact is that on this date more than two-thirds of the deposits have been paid in full, and the others will be paid as soon as the claims are received and verified. "Relative to the statements in these dispatches as to the probable loss, I will say at this time no one is able to predict what the probable loss will be, but it is my judgment that the loss will not be anywhere near as great as is reported in the various dispatches referred to."
