River railroad, recently acquired by R. E. Strahorn, which is to run from Ringold's bar on the Columbia river to Spokane, a distance of 150 miles. The suspension of the bank attracted but little notice in financial circles today. It was not a member of the Spokane clearing house. One of the rules of that concern is that all members must have a paid up capital of $25,000. The State Bank of Washington has at various times placed its capital at $50,000 and $25,000. It was given out at the bank this morning that its deposits were $17,000 and that there are less than 100 depositors. The financing of the railroad undoubtedly wrecked the institution as it started suit several days ago to recover $32,000 from the railroad company on notes it claimed to hold.
