DAWES TELLS or eANkS
Great Increase in Deposits During the
Fiscal Year.


With respect to the condition of ma.
tional banks during the year, shown
by the five reports required from the
banks, Comptroller Dawes in his annual
report for the year ended Oct. 81, 1899.
says:
THE number of banks in operation on
Sept. z, 1899, was 1886, with paid in
capital of $605, 772,970. The individual
deposits on that date amounted to ~,
45O, 725, 595.31, and the aggregate re.
sources to S4,650, 1855, 1874. A compari.
son of the Sept returns with those
made on Sept. 20, 1898, indicates an in
crease during the year III individual de.
posits of S419, 271, 055.02; in loans anC
discounts of $40, 7S9 ,623.20; in amounts
due frem other. banks and bankers, $50.
391 ,S966S; in specie, S44, G9I ,225.44, anc
in aggregate resources, Sti46,S4i, 0SS.51
On Sept. Z the net deposit liabilities OF
the national banks of the country aggre
gated $3,031 ,463, 016.GS, on which re
serve of $3.50, 56S, $3.50, or 293S pei
cent, was held. The composition OF thi:
reserve was as follows: Specie, $33S,51,
3S3. SO; legal tenders and United States
certificates of deposit fer legal tenders
1921, 754,651; due from reserve agents
S414 126, ego. "A; redemption fund witt
the treasurer of the United States, $40,
116,130.G3."
In recommending to Congress improve
nents in banking laws as directed by sec
ton 1913 of the Revised Statutes, the
Comptroller before making his chief ant
new recommendation for a bond-securet
elastic circulation, repeats his recon-
mendation of one year ago for law pro
viding for an unsecured emergency cir
culation to lessen the destructive powel
of financial panies, and taxed so heavily
that under normal conditions it must be-
retired and can neither provide profits foI
the bar ks Dor serve as a basis for the ex
pansion of commercial credits.
The Comptroller believes that, in ac
cordance with the Presidents recon
mendation, national banks should be al
lowed to issue circulation to the par o.
the United States bonds deposited b.
them TO. circulation, and that, in connec
ton wirh the law authorizing this, provis
ion can be made for secured emergenc.
circulation.
Among other commentators, INT
Comptroller strongly urges laws authoriz
ing tho incorporation OF hanks FOR tht
purpose of carrying on international ant
intercclonal banking as distinguished
from domestic banking. He also recon
menda laws authorizing the establishment
in sn all communities of national bank
with capital of $4,000. He repeats mi
Recommendation of one year ago relative
to modification of the law restricting
loans to any one individual to 10 pei
cent of the capital of a national bank
and advises the attaching of penalty TO:
making excessive loans after the presen
section is modified.

Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
1t used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
