TWO BANKS CLOSE

Runs on Richland and Kalamazoo In. stitutions Puts 'Em Out of Business. Kalamazoo, Mich., Oct. 10.-As the result of a small run, during which considerable money was paid out, the Union bank of Richland, a private institution which succeeded the old Richland Exchange bank, decided late Tuesday to suspend business, and the doors of that institution were closed Wedneday morning. Following this action the Bowman bank of Kalamazoo, a private bank, doing business at 201 Burdick street, of which E. W. Bowman is president, decided to close its doors to avoid a pos. sible run. Mr. Bowman was one of the co-partners in the Richland bank and heavily interested in that institytion. The capital stock of the banks is small, only $6,000 for the Richland institution. The liabilities are given as $195,000; the liabilities of the Richland bank being stated as $120,000, and the Bowman bank's liabilities as $75,000. It is stated that the directors of the Richland bank, all rich farmers, will be able to pay all indebtedness, and it is believed Mr. Bowman will also be able to settle all liabilities, though his name is on some paper Late Tuesday George M. Evers was named as assignee of the Richland Union bank. Wallace W. Dewey of Kalamazoo is president of the Richland bank; Miss Rell S. Wilson is cashier. Patrick H. Gilkey, one of southern Michigan's most prominent democratic politicians, Elias W. Bowerman and A. R. Whitney are co-partners.
