LOCAL PRESS POINTS Resumes Business. Platteville Witness. The First National bank of Platteville, which closed its doors on the 3d of August, opened again on Saturday last, September, 2, and went on doing businesss again as usual. Business opened busily, and the officers were kept busy all day attending to its numerous patrons. The deposits amounted to nearly $10,000, while the withdrawals were hardly worth mentioning. There was not the least occasion for suspicion as to the soundness of the bank, and it is a matter of wonder now that a run should have been made. Certainly those depositors who became suspicious could not have taken into consideration the fact that the paid up capital stock is $50,000, and that the stockholders are responsible for again as much, making $100,000, and that the securities of the bank would have to depreciate at least that much before the depositors could lose a cent.
