Description

The First National Bank of Salmon was closed by a special national bank examiner in June 1911 for heavy/overlarge loans (insolvency). A receiver was appointed (Frank/Frank R. McCormick and later C. A. Korbly noted) and multiple dividends were paid to creditors over subsequent years. No contemporaneous run is described in the articles; this is a suspension that resulted in permanent closure/receivership.

FIRST NATIONAL BANK SALMON CITY CLOSED Action Ordered by Special Bank Examiner-Large Loans the Cause of Failure The First National Bank of Salmon City, in Lemhi county, closed its doors today. A message was received in the city late this afternoon from Salmon bearing the above announcement. The bank was closed up by special nation al bank examiner from Washington D. C. Other than this information the telegram gave no details. The First National bank of Salmon was organized about five years ago and was regarded as one of the principal financial institutions of the Salmon City country. It was capitalized at $50,000 with a surpus of $7500. H. G. King, who is well known in Boise, was the president of the defunct institution and John Lottridge was cashier. Both of these men, as well as all others connected with the bank, have always been held in high regard by the patrons and friends of the institution, and have occupied enviable positions among the banking fraternity of the state. The only reason assigned by local parties for the failure of the bank at this time is the practice of mak ing heavy loans so great in volume that the institution's available funds were not sufficient to meet up with the demand. While the true state of affairs which brought about the closing are not known here, the belief prevails among men well informed upon the subject that this practice of overloaing is doubtless the direct cause of the failure. Charles S. Loveland, who is known to Boise citizens, is the regularly employed examiner for national banks but in this instance the bank was closed by a special federal agent. There are two other banks located at Salmon City, both of which are in excellent shape.

TOO MANY SUCH When the First National Bank of Salmon City closed its doors a few weeks ago it was announced that it was in a perfectly safe condition, and nobody would lose anything. That the officers had merely concluded that there were too many banks in Salmon and that it would be wise for somebody to quit. That statement created a little surprise and as the facts became known, some little amusement coupled with grave concern. It was so obliging of them to do the quitting and let the other fellows have the field! Now it appears that they simply got to the end of "their rope and th .t there was nothing left. At a sale of the business last week by Deputy United States Marshal E. W. Beemer they were not offered a cent for the bank stock. The home and the ran h of the bank president were sold to apply on the claims of the creditors and depositors. Naturally these people whose money was diverted into other hands and lost, are asking what is the use in having bank inspectors to watch over the affairs of banks with a view of protecting the people, and still let things go from bad to worse until the business is wrecked and then allow the statement to go out that everything is *all right and that if they will just go about their business and wait awhile that somebody will come and hand them their money. In the meantime the depositor is getting into embarrassment by being deceived and by waiting for money that is never coming. Of course, human institutions are subject to human frailities and errors, but after all, there is something in the contention that the 1 people, through the government, ought to be their own bankers. and that the money of the United States when deposited would be good and returnable to the owner at any time. If a postoffice in one town runs out of money it does not impair the value of a postal money order, because the whole system is behind it, and the banking business ought to be made e just as safe.

Depositors Meeting. In response to the call which was made for the depositors of the First National Bank last Friday evening a very good representation was present. omething like fortv or fifty thousand dollars of the deposits of that bank was represented. The First National Bank closed Its doors on June 8, 1911, over four years ago. Since that time there have been five dividends of 10 per cent paid to the depositors, the last one being in March 1914. The object in calling the meeting way to consult together as to the best way to proceed toward getting the affairs settled up. They felt that unless some action was taken the matter would drag along until the funds would go to the ones who were employed to settle the business. The general opinion of the leading depositors was that it would be advisable to procure the services of an attorney and commence suit in the Federal court against Frank W. McCormick, receiver of the defunct bank. Steps are being taken to begin the suit and it will be watched with keeen interest.
