This condition Of affairs affords 3
sound guarantee for the future.
The New York Financial Chr0n-
icle gives some valuable infoTma-
ton regarding our currency and
banking system:
Fifteen per cent. is the reserve
which the law requires from ell
banks situated outside the financial
centres. These institutions nun.
Der 1897, Their liabilities are 404
millions, and their reserve should,
Of course be 81 millions. The banks
actually hold % millions, or half as
much again as the strict letter of
the law requires. Few Of the great
banks In England are stronger In
cash reserve than this. Indeed,
many of the banks hold little except
consols for their reserve. VIZ must,
not, however, allow ourselves to be
misled. OF the whole 80 millions,
the actual greenback aggregate Is
but 81 millions, the rest being
chiefly made up of So millions OF
deposits ia the banks of the redeem.
ing centres, with 3 millions Of GER.
tifcates aud 3 millions ofgoli. The
whole aggregate of reserve Is %
per cent. instead of the 10 per cent.
which the law demands. Our ia
bles show o similar state of things
in the banks of the fifteen chief re-.
deeming cities outside Of New
York. These institutions number
1854, with 226 millions Of liabilities.
The reserves, By law, must De %
per cent. or So millions. The
amount actually held is II millions,
or 81 per cent. Of this SUN "a
millions are legal tenders, Is mil
lions are 3per cent. certificates, and
% millions are balances in the re-
deeming agencies in New York.
Az to the banks Of that city, they
are 81 In number, and as their LA.
bilities are go millions, their % per
cent. Of legal reserve would amount
10 S55,034, TIA. The actual reserve
is S72, 25S,075, or nearly 80 per cent.

oP1PER CREDITS."

Report of the Commissioners on Equalization OF
War Debts.
The Commissioners appointed to ex-
anime and report upon the reimburse
ment to the towns by the State for mu-
ncipal war debts, have made their report,
the material portion of which we give
below:
The Commissioners say:
The number of men for which re-lm-
bursemen. is awarded IS little less than
forty two thousand. The principal time
and labor of the Commission has been
expended in determining the proper credit
of a minority ofthis number. Many were
claimed by two or more cities or towns,
some we're not claimed at all, and for II
considerable number no credit was found {,
though regularly furnished and paid, and
found to have been in the service. 10
rightly and justly dispose of this minority
of the whole number allowed has been the
great labor and responsible duty OF the
Commissioners.
In many instances claim has been made
for the allowance of men who were
mustered into the United States service
as commissioned officers, and proof filed
of the payment of bounlies to such men.

missioned officers upon the quotas OF
