Failure of Private Banks Causes Rush on State Bank on Sunday.

Iatrrnatlon.il New Ferric?: CHICAGO, Fopt. IS. A sQu.id of police, armed with riot cluos, fought an angry and panicky crowd of depositors in the bank of Schiff & Co.. in W. 12th ht., today. Alarmed by the numerous failure of private banks in Chicago, in the last month the depositors started a run on the institution yesterday and affain today when it opened its doors this morning. Hanks in the west side foreign quarter are opened here for a few hours on Sundays. When the Schiff bank opened at C:CO o'clock, a crowd

of depositors entered and besan withdrawing funda Police protection was asked. More than J5G,0O0, mostly in savings accounts had been withdrawn when the bank closed at 1 o'clock. Samuel S. Schuster, cashier, announced there is plenty of money on hand and that all depositors -who wish will be paid Monday. Schuster blamed the run on the excitement caused by the crash of the Silver and Company, Michael Michnyuk and Sons, and the M. Oinsbun? and Sons, private banks within a few weeks. "Our institution U absolutely solent," he said, "but we are powerless to aVert what is happening." Schiff and Company's bank, one

of the largest on the west side, has

13,000 depositors. It was founded

in 1S02 by lienjamin J. Schiff, now

its president, and has been a state bank since December 15, 1915. Private Ilank Run Continues.

The run on the private bank of

1'ra.slowsky and Company, which began Saturday night, continued Sunday. Vladimir P.rn.slowsky, the banker, unable to secure American currency because the down town banks were closed on Sunday, paid the depositors in Russian money. About $20,000 was withdrawn. I3raslowsky posted a notice to the effect that Russian money was all he had today, but would have plenty of American currency Monday. This bank, also is considered solvent. It Is only a block from the Ginsburg bank which closed Saturday night. Fearing widespread effect from the private bank failures Bernard Honvich, president of the Rock Island Savings bank in the west side district, Sunday asked for a police guard when the bank opens tomorrow. Others Take Precautions. Precautions were taken Sunday night by other private bankers to vard against runs Monday. States Atty. Hoyne, who has been conducting an investigation of private banks in Chicago, publicly announced a few days ago that many of the institutions are insolvent. Atty. Bernard J. Brown, representing the owners of the Ginsburg bank, issued a statement tonight saying the institution is solvent, and will pay out in full. lie refused, he said, to surrender hia clients to the state's attorney because of threats of imprisonment and indictments.

BIG FIRE CAUSES $200,000 LOSS IN ILLINOIS TOWN

Casey, 111., dumber Yartl Burns ami Town Is Isolated as Result.

CASCY, 111., Sept. IS. Fire of unknown origin, which was discovered about 6:30 o'clock Sunday evening, wiped out the property of the Central Lumber Co.. valued at 200,000

land damaged adjacent buildings and

property. The town was cut off from telegraphic communication and the telephone lines also were down. Owing to the menacing flames the Vandalia Railroad Co. could not run its trains through the city for several hours.

Before any effective work could be done by the fire department the city water which is supplied from a reservoir became exhausted. Men and boy: responded rromptly and formed a great bucket brigade which is largely responsible for saving adjacent property. The property of the lumber company was insured. The company is one of the oldest business concerns in Casey. Vandalia passenger train No. 4 4, due at Casey at 7:4 5 o'clock was held up on account of the' fire for several hours. Freight cars and their contents standing on the siding near the lumber yard were ruined.

CLEAR SKY BOLT KILLS

Persons suffering from catarrhal

deafness and head noises will be

glail to know that this distressing a'iiction can be successfully treated at home by an" internal remedy that in many instances has effected a complete cure after all else has failed. Sufferers who could scarcely hear a watch tick have had their

hearing restored to such an extent that the tick of a watch was plainly audible seven or eiht inches away from cither ear. Therefore, if you know someone who is troubled with head noises or catarrh, or catarrhal deafness, cut out this formula and hand to them, and you will have been the means of saving some poor sufferer perhaps from total deafness. The prescription can be prepared at home, and is made as follows: Secure from Wetticks Cut Rate Drug store, or your druegist 1 oz.

Parmlnt (Double Strength), about

75c worth. Take this home and add

to it 1-4 pint of hot water and 4 oz. of granulated sucar; stir until dissolved. Take one toblespoonful four times a day. The first do?e should begin to relieve the distressing head noises, headache, dullness, cloudy thinking, etc., while the hearing rapidly returns as the system is invigorated by the tonic action of the treatment. Loss of smell and mucus dropping in the back of the throat, are other symptoms that show the presence of catarrhal poison, an! which are often entirely overcome by this efficacious treatment. Nearly ninety percent of all ear troubles are said to be directly caused by catarrh, therefore there must be many people whose hearing can be retored by this simple home treatment. Every' person who is troubled with head noises, catarrhal deafness or catarrh in any form should give this prescription a trial. Advt.
