Bank of Atlantic Fails as F H Whitney & Son Assigns
The Bank of Atlantic fails with assets listed at about 175000 against 200000 liabilities. F H Whitney signs an assignment of his sole property to James B Bruff to pay creditors, while Whitney and his son James G Whitney had run the bank for years in Atlantic Cass county Iowa. A receiver is appointed to wind up the co partnership and distribute assets, with bonds set at 5000 and 100600. The public reaction fears a wider crisis though no run on other banks occurs.
