T+h@' Ferguson government, which
two months ago was flirting with -the
idea' of abolishing the .provincial sav-
iugs offices, 'has reconsidered the sub-
ject and i; now disposed to continue
and extend the savings business,
"The" new attitude is due to the at-
titude of the public which resented
the idea of the savings offices being
abolished.Pt can now be stated al-
most positively that the offices are
now permanently established. It was
even rumored to -day that 'the, gov-
ernment might convert thein into a
chartered bank,
"The deposits in the savings offices
tre `growing rapidly and must now be
well tip to, the $11,000,000 mark. If
business continues brisk, enlarged ac-

BANK .FLURRY.
The failure of the Home Bank was
a reflex cause, of considerable excite-
uent for the different Ontario
brandies of the Dominion Bank on
Ivlonday and Tuesday. The excite-
ment began n
in a Toronto g o onto on Saturday:
Word of the run in Toronto readie
Seaforth on Monday and people who
had been made nervous by the previ-
ous failure did not see any reason far
continuing to worry over their depos-
its and at once began to withdraw
thein. At no time did a crowd form
hut •the teller was kept busy. On
Tuesday morning for a .time, it was
worse. When the morning papers ar-
rived, giving the statements of those
in control and the statement of .the
Provincial premier. the excitement
died down.
The following telegrams were also
received by Mr, Jones:
"The following statement appeared
in yesterday's papers, Within the

wholly unfounded and false, and that

any time in its history, It has no
loans that are causing the directors
or officials any concern and the

customers of the Bank, who showed
their confidence in the, institution
during ng the recent -s
tory
period
of
nervousness and excitement. A ru-
mor such as recently reached Seaforth
was bound to create a feeling of un-
certainty among depositors until the
absurdity of the reports was made
evident through the'Press. It is
pleasing to know that so great a
number of depositors both large ancl
small—men of standing and influence
in the community, gave little notice to
the rumors, 'mowing the exceptional-
ly strong position of the Dominion
