THE BaSKERs.-An approximate estimate
of the number of persons directly interested
as officers and shareholders in the national
banks would probably surprise most OF
our readers, even those who are themselves
included in the uumbe These banks are
about 1000 1904 at the date Of the Con-
troller's last report. OF officers and direc-
tors they have not less than $4,000. VI
shareholders it would be safe to Say that
there are million and halt, and probably
many more. Besides these, the deposltors
and note-holders are hardly less directly IN
terested, and OF these ne estimate can De
formed. On the I'd of last October the de.
posfts reachad about $3.50, 900 900; the notes
exceeded 1898, 900 900, the combined amount
being nearly 81 ,2OO,0O0,O00. This enormous
interest is distributed in every State. and, we
believe. in every Territory, of the Unlon.--
