ty days from the time of the fire had II in
running order.
These two gentlemen had hardly sue

'Ehc savings Banks.

From an advance proof sheet flnished
the Boston JonrnM correspondent. of the
annual report of the New York site SUI
perintendcnt OF banks, it is show in re-
gard TO savings institutions that fire new
banks were chartered blythe last legislature,
1873 one hundred and ffty-fyc banks arc
now doing business in the state; of these
seventy-one are in New York, Kings and
Wcstchester, which have more than three
1lths of the total deposits held by the-say-
ings banks in the state. The business of
the banks may be seen at a glance for the
following statement of the aggregate LA
bilities as shown by reports of the banks :

From these figures it appears that the
deposits increased from January 1 to July
l, 1873, but during the last half of the year
this gain was nearly all lost. The gain in
the surplus of the banks was one million
and three-quariers, greatly exceeding the
increase in the deposits.
