BANK FAILURE AT EL RENO. Stock Exchange Property Placed in the Hands of a Receiver. EL RENO, Okla. Dec. 14 -The Stock Exchange bank was closed here yesterday and Sheriff John M. Cannon placed in charge temporarily as receiver. The liabilities are $68,000, with assets amounting to $52,000. The failure was purely circumstan. tial.
