Multiple contemporary newspaper accounts (AP) report a three-day run on the Security State Bank precipitated by the recent closing of the First National (and linked uneasiness from a mysterious shooting at Callaway). The bank failed to open and was closed Nov 12, 1926 by the state banking department and its assets placed in the hands of the state banking commission. There is discussion of depositors organizing to attempt reopening later in November, but no clear evidence in these articles that the bank reopened; classification chosen as run → suspension → closure.

TWO BECKER COUNTY BANKS ARE CLOSED State Banks at Callaway and Detroit Lakes Fail to Open Their Doors Today Detroit Lakes, Minn., Nov. 12.(AP)-Two Becker county banks with total deposits of $930,000 were closed today by the state banking department because of depleted reserves. The institutions are the Security State Bank of Detroit Lakes, with deposits of $780,000. and the Citizens' State Bank of Callaway, with deposits of $150,000. The First National bank here was closed Monday. H. H. Erickson, president of the Callaway bank. is also cashier of the Security bank Closing of the Callaway bank followed the shooting affray there Tuesday in which Frank Murphy, cashier, and W. J. Norby, a stockholder, were found wounded in the former's office. The cause of the shooting and who is responsible for it has not been determined. Declines to Comment County Attorney A. O. Sletvold declined to comment on the developments today before he had a more intensive investigation of the closings and shootings. Financial uneasiness started here with the closing of the First National bank with deposits of approximately $800,000. A few months before the Merchants National bank with deposits of $500,000 closed its doors. Today the Security State bank of this place failed to open its doors. L. J. Norby. president of the bank. is a brother of W. J. Norby, the man who is suffering with wounds in a hospital here. Shortly after the Security State bank closed today, word was received here that the Citizens' State bank at Callaway had closed its doors. Whether the bank closings have any connection with the unexplained shooting of the two Becker county bankers is a point which has not been cleared. Investigation Under Way County Attorney Sletvold was investigating the possibility of there being a connection, but he declined to make any comment on the situation, other than he "was investigating." Thursday night deputies from the state bank examiners' office, officials of the Security bank and the county attorney consulted with officers of the Callaway bank. It was decided to close the bank today and place all assets in the hands of the state banking commission. Mr. Sletvold announced that there is no criminal action hinted in the closing of the bank. Officials said the bank was closed to preserve what was left of the assets to pay off depositors safely after the state department has had time to go over the books and collect on outstanding papers of the bank. Had the bank been permitted to stay open in the face of the run already begun, bank and county of ficials assert the result might have been still more disastrous to depositors. Closing of the Security bank, it is said. has temporarily halted plans for reorganization of the First National. The remaining bank in Detroit Lakes, the Detroit State bank, was preparing this morning to face a run, but money is on hand, business men say, to more than pay off all depositors. County Attorney Sletvold said he would be unable to question Murphy and Norby about their wounds until after Saturday. This delay is occasioned by the cond: tion of the men. Mr. Norby is the more seriously wounded. and in the event he should die, Mr. Sletvold said, a special grand jury will be called to investigate the shooting.
