Description

Newspapers report the Citizens' National Bank of San Angelo 'failed' and 'suspended' in mid-August 1896; a national bank examiner was placed in charge and the Comptroller appointed a receiver on Sept 9, 1896. No article describes a depositor run; the cause appears to be bank-specific insolvency (liabilities $72,000; capital impaired). A receiver later paid a 20% dividend to depositors (July 31, 1897), consistent with liquidation rather than reopening.

Chicago, Aug. 15.-Failures of three large firms having intimate financial relations occurred to-day, involving liabilities aggregating $320,000.
