Deputy Examiner Reports Finances Sound. Directors Draft Plans for Reorganization
Special to The Tribune. Eureka, Oct. 25.—Deputy Bank Examiner T. T. Taylor has completed an examination of the condition of the Farmers' and Merchants' State bank here, and directors credit him with the statement that he found conditions good, and considers the bank to be in a perfectly solvent condition, though many of its securities are slow and it will take some time to work them out.
At a meeting of the directors of the bank a committee for reorganization was selected, consisting of H. G. Pomeroy, James K. Lang, P. V. Klinke, J. H. Saling and Joseph Peltier.
Mr. Taylor, according to members of this committee, has stated that in order to reopen the bank it will be necessary for 80 per cent of the depositors to sign waivers agreeing to allow the accounts to remain there for a certain time. In order to reopen, some such plan must be used in order to preclude any run on the bank and maintain it on a stable foundation, he says.
It is understood that J. G. Masek, former president, will be connected with the bank in order to close some deals which are now pending, but that he will not be connected with it in any official capacity when it is reopened for business.

Bank runs are almost always and everywhere a deterioration of bank fundamentals.
But not for you.
You are the measure-zero exception: great fundamentals, solid bank, and yet the Diamond Dybvig fairy spread its rumor. Depositors woke up. Your collateral was not prepositioned. The Clearinghouse had it for you.
Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200. Go directly to jail… or worse.
