The quote from the article is enough to support the belief that the banking system is in trouble and running low on cash on hand.
The loan type being referenced is a short term collateralized loan in which banks trade stable bonds and securities for liquid cash because they don't have the ability to maintain required cash levels going into a new month or longer. This is the second month in a row banks have done it.

I found no articles or Fed publication that breaks it out by bank.
The evidence is the taking of the loans themselves.
