The Custom Of Paying Interest on
Deposits.

The Fourth National Bank Of Cincin-
natl has issued circular 10 It's customers
giving notice that after the 1st Of Decem-
Der next 1t will cease to pay interest on
what are known as deposits on zeal" "
that Is deposits subject to check without
notice, the same as ordinary deposits in
bank. 1t will only pay hereafter on sixty
day deposits, in which case it will issue a
certificate at the rate Of four per cent.
And in regard to the balances Of banks
and bankers it proposes the Following ar
rangement:
On deposits Of. banks and bankers In
tended as reserve, lin no case less sum
tkan FIVE thousand dollars and to be kept
on our books as Especial account" and
separately from the daily current account
Of such bank or banker, we will pay inter.
est at the rate Of four per cent per annum;
provided, that whenever this account is
drawn against, and falls below the amount
agreed on as Especial account" no inter.
est will be paid on the same, or any por-
tion thereof, Tor that month, nor until the
amount Of deficiency is made good.
This Is a good programme whether 1t is
adhered to or not. The banks now, like
everybody else, will Of course make plenty
good resolutions, some OF which will be
kept or not according to circumstances
hereafter.
Tho practice of paying interest on
transient deposits has grown into uni
versal usage within the last two or three
year,. It is, we may say, in vogue at all
the banks Of the country except few in
the rural districts. And the explanation is
that as long as we had smooth sailing
banks could pay four, five and even
SIX per cent for money on call and make
money out Of 1t at eight and nine per cent.
That is, the appearance OF profit was at
least sufficient to induce them to bid for
patronage in this way. The stateo West
Virginia and the city Of Wheeling came
st last to let out their money at auction in
this way to the highest bidder. Monied
concerns all over the country, ss well as
individuals, have grown into the habit oil
demanding interest on their deposits'
And in order to secure such deposits the
banks have bid against each other until
they have occasionally run up the rate to
what was regular interest before the war
In doing so they have increased their
aIes and their expenses for clerk hire and
have also subjected themselves TO o great
deal OF annoyance In Troublesome times.
SOthat all things considered 1t may we'll
10 doubted whether the practice has paid
them. Whether, however, any Of them
will follow the example ot the Fourth
National at Cincinnati remains to be seen
