BANK EXTENSION.
Bill Reported for organizing National
Banks In Small Towns.

A Bill Reported for Organizing National
Banks In Small Towns.
WASHINGTON, Jan. l3-The commit
tee on banking and currency yestar-
day reported to the house bill to pro-
vide for the organization OF national
banks in towns not exceeding 1900 in.
habitants. Under the existing law
the minimum capital stock required
for the organization OF n national
bank is $500 In some sections of
the country there has been growing
need for bank issues, as well as for
other banking accommodations, in
small towns in which the amount Of
$50, 900 cannot readily he raised for
banking purposes The inequality in
the distribution of national banks
is one OF the marked features OF
the national banking system. In
the eastern and middle states
banks are abundant, and this nltera-
ton in the law would not be availed
OF to any considerable extent. But in
the western and southern states there
is q dearth of banks in many sections,
due, no doubt, to the lack OF capital in
those sections. This inequality may
be remedied, in part at least, and the
existing need met to some extent in
the sections where there is dearth of
bank issues and banks are SO remote
from each other as to afford grossly
inadequate accommodations. Relief
Of this character has been recommend.
ed by those best qualified to judge, and
meets the approval of the comptroller
of the currency.

Noted Greek Streams.

The Ilissus and Cephissus are small
streams -mere rivulets in comparison
with Arbana and Phnrpar, or even
with Simois and Scamander-ranking
in size more nearly with Siloa's brook
or Kedron by Jerusalem. Leda's
swan disporting amid their wavelets
would be enforced to wade for want OF
depth to spread its propulsive webs.
These watercourses are frequently
mentioned by Socrates, but he leaves
no precise photographed report on
their volume, which under ordinary
conditions is probably now about The
same Us it was then. Their united flow
Mt present at low water is about a bar-
rel a month. II is, therefore, a sur
pris;ng occurrence that they have just
risen into torrents and wasted their
shores They have drowned ont
towns and villages, and destroyed
quite number OF lives. 1t is enough
to con firm in the Greek fancy the tale
Of Deucalion, and it may be Ia.
