THE WHEAT FAILURE. ALIFORNIA is startled by another great fail- ure of large speculators in wheat. The unpleas- ant impression is made not so much by the fail- ure itself as by the incidents connected with it. The failure of the Pacific Bank, during the panic in 1893, was caused by reckless and speculative banking, car- ried on without regard to the interests and safety of depositors, whose money was being handled by the bank as trustee. This disregard of the rules of bank- ing and the requirements of common honesty it | hoped had made an admonitory impression that | would not merely restrain all temptation to dis- | honesty, but would incite that' caution which good SATURDAY. esessvsssscssss .

Under our system of business banks are an ab- solute necessit, They are the means of safekeeping of the funds of depositors and the instruments of circulation. Those that are now involved are en- tirely able to stand the loss which saps their re- {serves or may draw on their stockholders, so that their depositors are perfectly safe. But this safety is by no means due to the wise precaution of proper and conservative banking. The methods which ap- pear in this affair may as well have produced com- plete absorption of reserves, of the credit of the stockholders, and loss to depositors. The public is disquieted by the apparent desire of the banks to covertly negotiate with the bankrupt firm for a re- turn of some of the money. which many bche\'e. they have secreted. rather than invoke the law for the punishment which is their due, if what is charged against them be true.
