Rutter, is dying at his residence, 501 Superior stroet, created something of a sensation in financial eireles. This action was not only a great surprise to the creditors and depositors of the bank, but it took the , Thomas Tallman, entirely by sur- prise. It scems that the bank has nes been in straightened circumstances at all, but its closure is the direct result of the expected death of Mr. Rutter. ‘ashier Tallman this morning told this story to a reporter. He said: “Last night I did not know that this event was going to occur, Only this morning was I awakened to the inevitable result and 1 acquiesced in the closure on the recommendation of emi- day. cashic nent legal authoritics. We have not been in & bad condition as re- spects finances. The expected death of President Rutter is the main cause of this 1 cannot say what the assets and lia- ies will be, but if our debtors pay us we can satisfy all the obligations we owe. Of course, is case Mr. Rutter should aie, legal complications would arise anyhow, and in such case it might be better to bave the busi- ness in the hands of the court. Mr. Rutter 18 not yet dead, but 1 am expecting to hear of his demise every minute. For six mon ths all the work here has devolved upon me, his condition rendering him unable to be con- sulted even, and the strain fell heavily upon me.

We had no board of trade patronage and we were influenced in 10 way by the pranis of wheat.” The application for a receiver for the bank was made before Judge Shepard, The court granted _the prayer and named Hiram McChesney a8 the receiver. The bonds were placed at $500,000. The Traders’ bank has been doing business since 1872, It was organized in 1861 at Freeport, 111, as the Freeport Savings insti- tution. The Chicago Commercial and Sav- ings bank, the name adopted in 1572, devel- oped into the Garden City ngs bank in 1533, and in 1572 was known as the Traders’ bank.

There was considerable flurry uround the bank when the news was spread that it had About 12 o'clock the doors were ¢ and a little placara was hung in the window which read: *‘Bank closed. In- formation given at 10 Ashland block.” The announcement attracted a large crowd and the strect corner was jammed by mer- chants and clerks who had been out for their lunch. Although they stood out in a drizzling shower they were undaunted, and, as they held their hands on their pocketbooks, they read and re-read the words on the door. Not until 1 o'clock did tae crowd decrease in numbers, and _only then when a savage look- ing littlo cloud began 10 pour big rain drops. The scene was almost indescribable in the interior of the bank as anxious-visaged men came trooping in to talk with Cashier Tall- man. He had vacated his desk and sought seclusion in his private room. There they met him with tears streaming down his face. They were depositors; their money was at and they appealed to him, asking if were safe. Small tradesmen, whom he knew needed their money, and who could not afford to go down in a bank failure, were the suppliants, He knew their wants and could say nothing, I have been with the bank since it started,”’ said he to a reporter, “that is ten yearsago—make this talk short if you please,” and the handkerchief again went up to his eyes. “'I have been in business in Chicago since 1853 and I—" Here thegentleman again broke down and retired iato an ante-chamber. Re- turuing in a few minutes he said: ‘I never G.eamed of this trouble until last night. It was late and I had retired when I decided to shut up the bank, Isent for our attorney, Mr. Walker, and disposed of the affalr.” “Will you'pay out dollar for dollard" “Phat depends,” said Mr. Tallman, It others will pay us we can pay them. Just so soon as the receiver takes charge matters will assume their accustomed way. We have no fears—we have friends,” and tho toars came again. “While the failure of the bank to-day was not thought of yesterday,” said Vice Presi. dent Lymaa J. Gage, of tho First National bank, “'still it cannot be said to be a great surprise to us. It has for some time been supposed that the bank was connected very closely with the af- fairs of the Rutter _ estate. It will have no perceptible effect upon the financial condition. In my opinion it will not effect the money market in the least. I don’t think the First National bank had any dealings of consequence with it. Ido not think it had any very large depositors. For that reason the failure not affect any large business firms in the city or any other local bank. “Did the failure of the bank result in any way frowm the board of trade failures, or will its failure affect board of trade men in any way!" +“No to both questions. As I said before, it is my opinion that the failure will not affect the condition of any large business firm or interests, or the general financial condition in the city.” Joseph O.
