To that extent they aro in B condition dangerous to themaclves and tho pubite, Thelr voluntary quarterly statements are working litter than advertieements; they too often present the accounts of the banks, not ns they are, but as the managers destra the people to Lelicve they are, There are many well conducted institutions for savings de- positors in this city, Wo would not name any single eno as etanding before tho public on falto pretences. ‘We do say that tho present system of unaccountability makes it impossible to distinguts between the safe and the insecure, tho Lonest aud tho dishonest. ‘Tho good are not knows tu be betler than the worst, under bia eystem, In the Inst three years fivo’ravinga banks in this city aave brokon, and brought a loss of $500,000 to thefr de= positors, Tha Chiengo savings bunks hold to-day, 60 diett last statements show, a lower position than in ful, 1873, ‘These sro significant facts, In other glaces, tor instance In Connecticut, the eayings-Lauka epordta increased each of tho Inst three years, and the sffect of the panic was eecn only ina less rapid growth. For the sake of depositors, ws should insist that the aufeguards recommended by Gov, Beveridge be adoptod; but we would urge eavinge-bank munagers for thelr own saken to second them by every means they can command, In no olher way can they soeuraly reaver public confidence, ‘Older States have fouud it necessary to exact com- pulsory statomenta from savings Links, aud to aubject {hem to frequent and unoxpected examinations. Wo have before us the changes proposed in the Savings Dank laws of Connecticut by the special Commiasion appointed to examine tho savings banks of that State, They form su admirable code, and would work sa well tn Tilinois as Connecticut. They provide for tho publication of state- ments in o form prescribed by tho Bank Commissioners of the State, aud tor soarching ond un- amounced examinations, The Commissioners are given tho power to examino all the accounts sud tho silicers, under oath, and tocriminully prosecute any pitcer who refuses or misstates informiation, and aro required to make snnual statements to the Legislature of the condition of every savings bank in tho State. ‘Tho Constitution of Illinois provides that every State yank shall make a quarterly statement of ita condition m the form provided by law. As there bos been no tuch legislation this constitutional requirement bas ro- relyed voluntary complisnce only, and one yuito worthless, Tho peculiar limitations thrown wound banking by the Constitution, which deprive the stating banks of compelltion by practically inkibiting thé granting of any more charters, tho intorcats, of tho people, of the tragat poor especially, and of tho oxiat- ing banks themeelyes, all give the recommendations of Bov, Beveridge an urgoncy that the Legislature should reed, Tn the local market the inquiry for Governments has fallen off, Tho popular impressiou seems to bo that ano effect of the now Currency law will be to reduce ihe currency values of Goverument .bonds, and thero an {ndisposition to buy freely, besides a ton- Fency on the part of bankers and otherd to aol, = Tho prices wery thurefora weaker on Saturday.
