Description

The Bank of Tempe suspended its operations in Tempe, A.T., on May 23–24, 1894 and 'assigned' to D. A. Abrams (assignee/receiver). Reports state assets exceeded liabilities and depositors would be paid, but the bank was placed in the hands of an assignee/receiver and later legal actions followed (indictments for embezzlement, creditor suits). No contemporaneous article describes a depositor run prior to suspension; cause is inability to realize assets and heavy losses by principal stockholders in sheep/wool business.

CLOSED BUT SOLVENT. The Bank of Tempe, Ariz,, Makes an Assignment. PHOENIX, Ariz., May 23.-The Bank of Tempe suspended at 10 o'clock this morning, and assigned to D. A. Abrams of Phoenix, a brother-in-law of J. A. Fleming, territorial treasurer. The Phoenix National bank is the heaviest creditor. Business the last year was light. The bank was open one hour this morning, but all of today's deposits were returned on closing. P. P. Dagge, president, says the assets far exceed the liabilities, and depositors will be paid dollar for dollar. Money was expected by this morning's train that would have stemmed the tide, but its failure to arrive caused immediate closing. Daggs Brothers, the principal stockholders, have suffered severe losses in sheep, and the wool market is BO low as to make wool not worth shipping. They are the biggest sheep owners in Arizona. But little excitement has been caused at Tempe by the assignment. Confidence in the bank is prime. Mr. Wildman of the Farmers' and Merchants' bank says: "If Daggs Brothers owed me $100 I would charge it to profit and loss, but if the Bank of Tempe owed me $1000, I am confident I would get my money." This seems to be the feeling in general among depositors and others.

- empe Assigns. morning shortly after ten o'clock the Bank of Tempe, the oldest financial institution in the city, says the Tempe News of the 23d inst, closed its doors and hung out a notice to the effect that an assigument had been made to D. A. Abrams and that every dollar would be paid in full. The assets are placed at $80,000 and liabilities at $30,000. The cause of the failure is assigned to inability to realize on assets sufficiently to meet the demands of depositors. Cashier Van Horn is positive of the bank's ability to pay off the depositors in full. The failure of the Bank of Tempe is greatly to be regretted. Its policy has been generous, perhaps to a fault, but during the hard times of the past year the favors shown by the bank to persons who were temporarily embarrassed, have been numerous and are not easily to be forgotten. The talk on our streets among depositors in the bank is of a hopeful nature all being of the opinion that it is but a question of a short time until they will get their money.
