G THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 18 MONEY AND COMMERCE MONETARY. TurspAY Tivensna, Bopt, 3. Omrrenoy is atil] flowlng In undiminished vol- nio from this oity to almost ovory important town {n the Northwest. ‘Iia ordors from coun- try banks to-dny wore iu the aggiegato equal to any day Inst wook, Tho total amount of currency sont out during tho Inst twouly daya Las beon groator than wan ever sont out in the samo longth of timo boforo, ‘Tho contiuuance of the movemont of ourrency, and the heavy rocoipts of wheat liero aud at Milwaukeo, indicato, as wo montioned somo days ngo, that tho entire whoat orap i3 on tho move. Tho foms * outortained by many Inat weok that the nva* fanche of whont would put frolghts up and prices down, and that finally the grain would accumulnto heroto such an extent ns o absorb tho lonuable fundsof tho banksand mako monoy tHght, esom + mot unlikely to bo realized in all purtioulars, Froights havo ndvancod, and pricos of both wheat and corn lavo declinod in proportion, Monoy is abundant enough yot, but it cannot ponsibly romain so if tho grain accumulatos hero. Now York oxchango is still flat enough. Somo 8alos woro mado to-dny nt $1.25 por 31,000 dis- count; but there wore fow bransactions, and nearlyall tho banks profor ordering ourrency from New York to solliug oxchango at 80 hoavy @ disecunt, ¥ DANR RESERVES, It nppenrs that somo of tho Now York National Banks are ondeavoring to couvince the Comp- troller of tho Currency and otber Washington officialaof tho nocessity of roposling that part »f tho National Currency nct requiring tho banks to Liold 25 per cont resorve against thoir circula- tion and deposite. Without entering into tho flotaila of tho argumonts in behnif of the rapenl, thoy may bo stated in_genernl terms to bo: Firsl, that, if tho strict leiter of the law is com- liod with, and tho 25 por cont is koptat all imes ‘on hmnd, it is practieally usclens. Second, that, if thoy woro roleased from tho obligation' to koop tho resorvo at all, thoy ‘vould fucreaso thoir loans accordingly, nnd thus biave groator monans of relioving the monoy mar~ ket in times of stringency. Tho Now York bank- cora make & spocial 1]).‘102\ that thoy would Lo bet~ tor ablo to provent tho locking up of curroncy. As far as_ tho roquiremont to hold RESLRVE AGAINST CIRGULATION ts concorned, wo havo ropeatedly oxprossed tho. opinlon thabit was suporiluous. * If tho Natioual Bank circulation is not sufiiclontly socurod by Ehe deposit of United Statou bondsto the smount of 10 per cent par valuo moro than tha eircula~ tion issued on them, it raust bo confessed that it will bo noxt to impossiblo to _dovise any practieablo aystom of baulk fagucs. Tho roquira~ mont to hold s legal-tonder resorve sgainst National Bau circulstion adde nothing to the security of tho note-holder. The Government Juns much plodgod to tha rodemplion of the National Bank notes as itis to tho rodomption of tho groonbncks, and the Govornment might roquiro tho National Bauke to hold a reserve against its ~ §356,000,000 Z" groenbucka with tho eamo proprioty thaf it requires thom to hold o rosorve ~againit tho 850,000,000 of National Bank circulation, basod on the 2390, 000,000 &'pur valuo) of Utited States Londs de~ Pomeed y the banks with tho United States Tronsurer, Evon if Wo woro ou a spoclo bais, thero would not be the nllgthtent ncceasily for say ]einl roquiromont that Natlonnl Banks should keop n resorve on hand_ to protect their motes, The banks bave too large o stako, in their bonds deposlted with the Trensuror, over to pormit their notos to go to protest. The ro. quiroment to hold o reservo of la(i'nl tonders ngainst circulation i unnocossary, and incapable of boing dofonded on any rensonadle ground. Tho requiroment to hold RESERVE AGAINST DEPOSITA Is, howover, quito auother mattor. This in tho most important, wlmast the only, incroase of so~ curity which the' National Banking systom af- fords depositors over the old Stato system. Thig additionnl seourity, however, does not so much consiat in tho proportion of the deposita which tho bank is required to keep always on hand in legal-tender money, a8 it doos in tho ostablishe ment of o standard condition which mt‘xfy bo used to compare tho management of difforont banks, showing whick ouew aro offencst abovo or below (ko standard. A common sonso understanding of tho requircmont for rosorve is, that it is to be ueed in cases of neccesity, but that, whon tho emergonoy in paat, thobank should recover to its normal coadition, II all the mon who aro running National Banks in nll parts of tho country wero prudent, oxperionced banlkors, it might not bo nusafo to ropoalall legal raquiros ments in_regard to resorvos; but thoy aro not, and, if the country National Banks cannot afford to conform to o standard 16 per cont re- sorve against deposits, onc-half of which thoy are pormitted to koep, in New Yorl, it is an ovi- dence of o x|nnFerom tondeucy to oxpand their erodit too much. Tho reeorve against circulation and doposits is, of courde, hold in one common fund in iho cnee of each bank, Tho resorve agninst cirenla- tion is, howover, vseless, and Lho” only uso of the wuole amount i for resorvo against deposits. the roquiroment to lold reservo ngainst circulution wers abolished it would bo all tho incrossed liberty tho bauks could ronsonably ask ; it would reduce tho age gregato amount of legal-touder resorves ro- quirad sbont ouc-fourth of tho presant ayorago nmount, Tho movement to abolieh all resorves is bolioved to havo its origin in the Wall streot banks, who want tho liborty of expauding to tho uatmogt in domand loaus to thostook spoculatars, but Wall streot is tlio worst poesiblo sourco from which to oxpoct eound financial principlos or honost argumenta.
