Special to The Georgian.
Macon, Ga* July 8.—Tho heavy run
on the Exchange Bank which begun
July 2 and was kept up throughout this
week resulted in the appointment
receiver* Saturday night. The bank
held out against the steady stream till
It was soen by ths officials that efforts
were Useless.
Receiver Named,
The directors of the bank held
meeting late Saturday night and ar
rangements were mads to apply to the
Bibb superior court for a receiver.
Oounsel Immediately sought Judge
Whipple, of Cordele, Ga.
Dr. T. N. Baker, A. D. Schofield and
B. P. O’Neal were appointed, and now
have tho assets of the banking bust
ness of the institution In hand.
Through Counsel Judge A. L. Miller,
It was announced to ths public that
the assets of the bank are ample to
pay depositors and creditors In full and
loavo a surplus for distribution among
the stockholders.
Tho directors announce, through
their attorney, that there Is assurance
from gentlemen of ample means who
are Interested In the protection of the
creditors aijd stockholders that
strong national bank Is to be immedi
ately organized for the purpose of co
operating with the receivers under
proper orders of tho court to the end
that all the depositors and creditors
shall be fully paid without the usual
delay Incident to receivership.
Assets $1,958,97335.
Ths official statement Is that the run,
which lasted through July $, 8, 6 fluid
6, had the effect of exhausting all the
available cash of the bank. Satur
day's run proved very heavy.
Rumors were kept up. and when the
banking hours were over the officials,
with President Cabanlss, were fairly
well convinced that the fight could last
no longer.
The oesets of tho bank are estimated
to be $1,968,978.65 and liabilities the
same.
It was Impossible, said the directors,
to raise further sums of cosh to meet
the run without sacrificing the assets.
It was deemed Impossible to further
continue the bank as a going concern,
and the receivership was sought to
eliminate the danger of heavy losses to
the stockholders and depositors and
creditors.

TO PLAY BASEBALL
Baseball that la bassball—thla la tbs kind
that will bs turned oil at Tones DeLeon
Saturday.
One-half of the players will be known as
the Bell House Bos, because they all atay
at ths Bell (louse and are known to each
other aa "Say, bo," and "You, bo," and
Eh. bo," and ths Ikle. Ths other half of
tbs "confilcters" will bs kuown as ths Capl*
tal City Club Cutes—no explanation necoa-
■ary.
It Is not the cams Itself that will appeal
so ranch to the people of Atlanta, although
the Indications are for a real, live contest,
nor Is It ths players alone, even though
they are among tbs best known young men
In Atlanta. Nor even Is It that no less
dlstfngluahed a personage than Mayor Joy
ner la going to place hls Ilfs on tbs rack by
umpiring.
The thing that will appeal to Atlanta la
the fact that ths gams will bs for ths ben
efit of the Sheltering Arms, that splendid
Institution of charity which has never failed
to receive support from those lu ths city
who bad It to give.
The efforts of The Georgian to secure a
summer cottage horns for the Inmates have
been awarded through tbs kindness and lib
erality of M. A. Ersklne, who has donated
a cottage. The Institution needs, however,
fund* to keep the summer home going, and
this ball gams will probably raise a good
j>art of It.
