Description

Multiple newspaper items from August 1890 report the State National Bank of Wellington, KS, closed its doors Aug. 6, 1890 with liabilities about $100,000. Later (Wichita 1897) a receiver (A. R. Downes) is described as having closed up the bank's affairs in 1893 and paid depositors dollar for dollar. I therefore record an initial suspension/closure on 1890-08-06 and a subsequent receivership action in 1893. Cause in contemporary coverage is not specified; treated as bank-specific insolvency/failure.
