SIGHT OF MONEY. Starts Run on a Bank and Also Stops It. Chicago, Nov. 6.-Cash payments of wages in Indiana Harbor frightened the employes of the big factories there so greatly last week that they started a run on the Indiana Harbor State bank. The financial storm raged for three days and the tempest was quieted solely by the sight of piles of currency and gold which the bank officials placed in view of the ignorant foreigners who were clamoring for their money. The run at last was checked and nearly all the money that was drawn out has been re-deposited. The ánomalous fright resulted from the fact that the Inland Steel company at the end of the previous week, on the regular payday paid in cash instead of following its old custom of giving the employes checks drawn on the bank. This led to the conclusion that something was wrong with the bank. and the run ensued.
