St. Pact Minn. Jan. 5. Asadireot
result of tho closing of the Unnk of
Minnesota two weeks ago which cre-
ated new distruBt among the banks
depositors started runs on a number of
city banks yosterday that were reputed
not to be as strong as depositors
wished. Three St. 1'aul banks the
Oermanla tho Allomnnln and the West
Side nono of them national instltu-
tions nnd all closely associated wero
forced to close their doors. They nro
in the hands of 'tho state bank exam-
iner. During' tho timo that has intervened
since the closing of tho Bank of Min-
nesota the Oermanla bank has paid
out S22500O to frightened depositors.
The Allexnania bank which like tho
Gcrmania hod a large cllentngo among
tho Germans and whose vice president
had formerly beon president of the
Oermanio then bocamo the target for
as lively a run as could bo Been during
panic times anywhere.
People crowded nbout tho doors and
fairly fought for a. .olaco in tho line
beforo the paying teller's window.
The bank officials realized fully what
such a run meant und .promptly called
on Hank Examiner kjnyon to take
possession of the bank and that of-
tlctnl Is now in charge.
Tho West Side bank n small but
possibly stronger batk cleared
through tho Allemania. and its clear-
ings were returned by the latter insti-
tution. Following this thorc was a de-
cided run inaugurated on tho bank and
at S o'clock tho bank officials closed
tho doors and called a niectit'' of the
directors to decido what action to take.
Their decision wus apparent lato in tho
afternoon when they filed a deed of
assignment to Charles S. Staples the
prcsldout of tho bank.
Considoi uble public money is tied up
in the Institution but there is ample
supply for all immediate needs in tho
other banks of the city.
During tho day numerous reports of
troublo among the other banks wore
current and u few banks suffered
runs of greater or lesser intensity but
tho savings banks wero protected by
the law that allows them to rcqulro
sixty days' notlco before paying out
deposits and the national banks aro in
strong condition nnd have no fear of
anything of tho sort.
The assignment of the Gcrmanlu and
West Side banks lias brought up a
somewhat new question in the bank-
ing laws of this state and the courts
will bo called on to settle it The
stato bank examiner doubts their
rights to assign holding that they
should have under tho law turned
over their assets to him. The attor-
ney goneral intimates that he will
bring action to test the matter as soon
as tho papers can be propared.
