Bank Guaranty Fund Used for First State Savings Failure
Lincoln dispatch reports Secretary Royse drew on Nebraska's state guaranty fund to reimburse depositors of the defunct First State Savings bank of Superior. 721 banks contributed $54,526.17 with Lincoln's First Savings Bank paying $50,157 and Home Savings Bank of Wilbur giving $43,800. Colonel Joseph Oberfelder observed state-house activity as crops look favorable in the west. Senator E. P. Brown of Lancaster filed for Republican regent of the University, joining Hoffmeister and Hummel in unsettled race context. Coal oil shipments without inspector notice trigger potential prosecutions.
