" Strikes Garnett. Prosperity' Wednesday morning, the Bank of Garnett closed its doors and posted the following notice : "Owing to continual stringency in financial matters, this bank is compelled to suspend business temporarily. All depositors will be paid in full." Everybody was surprised, for this was considered one of the safest banks in this part of the state--but the "safe" banks appear to be the ones that are going to the wall. An old stocking is about as safe as any other bank these times. The failure of the Bank of Garnett hurts Garnett in various ways. It has caused the closing of the Red Star store and Russell's furniture store. The DeWolf furniture factory was compelled to discharge all of its workmen except those who own stock in the factory. When the banks, closed its doors, a telegram was sent to Bank Examiner Breidenthal to take charge of it, which he did by wire. Wednesday night, the sheriff attached the bank in the interest of the county and the First National Bank--the former for $13,200 and the latter for $2,300. Under the circumstances, it became necessary to send for Attorney-General Little, who came down immediately, and the last report we heard was that Mr. Breidenthal had obtained the keys. We can give no further particulars this week.
