Droyer & Co , who had spread their capita
out so extensively that they were unafol
to concentrate It In tlmo to same ihcmsolvcs
The other failures wcro due to the loclttnt
up of assets held by the Natlon.il Hank o
Illinois , and which \\cro not available wliei
that Institution closed Its doors. No fur
ther trouble Is expected , as the Clcarlnp
IIouso association has OKI ceil to pay 75 pe
