BANK RUSHERS SHAMED WHEN THEY FAIL TO BUST BANKS AT PHOENIX The tip of the tail end of the bank run passed yesterday a little before noon with a slight flicking, and after that all trace of the insanity of the day before vanished, leaving a feeling of greater confidence in Phoenix than had prevailed since the first rumors of the weakness of some of the smaller banks of the city and vicinity were circulated several weeks ago. It was demonstrated to the satisfaction of even the fearful that the banks now doing business are unbreakable. At the hour of opening, The National Bank of Arizona, The Valley Bank, The Phoenix National and The Phoenix Savings Bank and Trust company were quickly filled. The throng was composed in part of a large number of business men who had come to make deposits, in accordance with the spirit of the mass meeting at the Chamber of Commerce the night before. But in the crowd were many who had come to continue the run of the afternoon before, and those of the latter class could be distinguished by the shamefacedness with which they entered the doors.-Phoenix Republican.
