current year; but because one city has
s, 900 clearings for week ana an
other 100000 it does not follow that
the volume of business transacted is
greater in the latter city. 1t is evident
that if one bank does million of bust
ness within itself, that sum does not go
through the clearing house. Only the
business between or among banks
shows in the clearing house totals.
System 10 a Science.
The St. Paul clearing house is simply
piece of machinery, and has no re-
sponsibility. If check is not good, or
is not properly endorsed. the bank hold
ing it must settle with the bank giving
it. and not bring it into clearing house
cOgniZapce. The banks associate for
clearing house purposes and must con-
form to its rules. Fines are imposed for
being tardy at the settlement, for max
ing clerical errors or for b0iSteTous or
unruly conduct while there. Practice
has reduced the system to q science. and
generally the clearing is made within
ten minutes after the deputy manager
enters the room. Half an hour later
each bank has received Its checks and
charged them to the accounts Of the re-
spective drawers. By this dispatch, if a
man deposits on Friday afternoon a
worthless check he has received, he is
notified of the fact before noon on Sat
urday. There is no special clearing
house arrangement with Minneapolis,
each bank making Its own settlements
with the banks of that city, but it is
probable that in the near future a Twin
City clearing house will be established
Oh the plan now prevailing in each.
The St. Paul clearing house was Or
ganiZed on Jan. -. 1874, and its first
session for business was held on Feb.
