La Salle Street Trust & Savings
Bank of Chicago and Subsidiary
Institution, Broadway, Ashland
and Twelfth and Illinois State
aBnks Closed by Examiner.
CHICAGO, Juno 12. Tho I.n Snllo
Street Trust and Savings company
organized by Win. Lordlier flvo years
ago when ho waa United States sen
ator of Illinois and 'if which he has
slnco been president eras clo'cd to
day by tho state bank examiner.
While rumors of tho final troubto
had been whispered of late, tho ac
tual closing of tho Institution was a
surprise. Coincident with the clos
ing of the La Salle Street bank, state
examiners wero tent to three banks
which bavo heavy deposits with the
larger Institutions. No statement
of what the closing of the bank act
ually means In dolars was mado by
tho examiner. Itceont reports to
the stato auditor's office placed the
deposits of the I.a Sallo Street bank
at moro than ."..000.000.
Capital Is Million
In the last statement Issued by the
bank Its capital stock wns placed ot
11.000,000, with a surplus ot 2r,0.
000, and undivided profits ot $93,
C31. Its stock was then held at par,
Tho statement Rave tho deposits as
$5,r08,5GG and placed the loans at
$4,363,398.
Later the state bank examiner an
nounced ho had sent examiners to
three banks In Chicago clawed as
subsidiaries of the La Salle strict In
stitution. Tho examiners caused a
suspvnslon of business In the three,
tho Ilroadway State Dank, In the
North Side, the Ashland and Twelfth,
In the West Side Ghetto district, and
the Illinois State Dang or Chicago In
North Clark street.
In financial circles It was reported
that tho Corn Exchange Bank yester
day refused to allow tho La Salle
Street Trust and Savings Dank to
clear through It.
Itun on ltank "Mild"
Tho run on the bank, which was
charactcrlted by bank officials as
"mild" was attributed to allegations
made In connection w'fth tho suit of
John II. Coyne against Stato Auditor
Drady, In which Coyno charged in his
declaration In a suit tor damages that
the La Sallo Street Dank had con
tributed to tho Drady campaign fund
and that tho contribution had bceu
mado tho basis of a claim that It had
been consulted regarding appoint
ments to bo mado by tho state audi
tor. Rough estimates ot tho amount
withdrawn by depositors In tho last
three Weeks place the figures at
more than $1,000,000.
Examiner's Statement
Following the closing of the bank's
doors, there, was n crowd assembled
in front, but there was no disorder.
A policeman was detailed to stund
guard, but there seemed to be 110 call
for his services.
Daniel V. Hnrkin, chief stato bank
examiner for Cook county, explained
that ho had not intended lo close the
bank when ho entered it today.
"1 did not mean to take uoses
sion," he said, "but I soon discov
ered I must. It looked extremely
doubtful if tho bank could continue,
to weather the situation. At present
I cannot sny whether the bank will
ever resume operation". The three

the formnlity of n conference the
house today by n vote of 210 to 71
accepted Hie wnnte's amendment to
Hie repeal of the Panama tolls ex
emption nud sent the hill to President
Wilson.
Representative Glass of Virginia,

president, made a scnutionnl nllnck
on his own party leaders, who oppos
ed the repeal, though avoiding men
tioning them by mime.
Itcpiitlliites Exemption Heresy
"This proceeding i not ungrudg

ninc. Congress should legislate nud
n,uit talking so much. I repudiate
thoe men who wrote the heresy of
exemption into the democratic pint
form." Representative Sfonilell of Wyom
ing, democrat, said the senate amend
ment was not a compromise, but ft
"straddle."
Republican Lender Mnnn announc
ed his intention to supisirt the senate
aucndment, which, lie said, "makes

deliberation nnd for future decision.''
Acceptable to All
Chairman Adnmson of tho com
merce, committee. In charge of the-bill,
at once moved that tho house cou?ur
with the amendments instead of send

"Tho senate amendment," he snid,
"tdiould be acceptable to nil advocate

appropriate that tho statement con
tained iu the amendment should bo
