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.
