Hanking and Backing.
I -list week idle rumors were afloat
in Columbia reflecting seslously upon
the soundness of one of the banks
there. A mild run wa* started on the
bank ami depositors, mostly small
ones and some large, began forming
in line to withdraw t hei ' funds. Then
by reason of the modern way of bank
ing. the suspected bank suddenly be
I nine' the strongest bank in the state.
In addition to being sound of its own
resources, the Columbia clearing 1 1 on so
association, an organization of the
banks in Columbia, investigated the
affair of the suspected hank, discover
ed that the rumors were without foun
dation, and issued a statement guaran
teeing every penny of every deposit.
Thus backed by all the other banks in
Columbia, the bank under suspicion be
crime ns strong as the combined
strength of all the banks. It Is stated
that on the day of the run, dejvoslts
exceeded withdrawals, although the
bank remained open an extra hour in
the afternoon to accomodate those who
wished to withdraw their funds
The action of the Columbia banks
shows a fine spirit of co-operation
and serves a> a <u>rt of sledgehammer
blow to people who start idle rumors,
which have not the seiVMance of foun
dation. but which may !do much harm
and <-rt is?? gresf losses -\nd mffrring. ;
