Easy banking Methods which Cause
/ Americans Considerable Surprise.

EoSy banking Methods Which Cause
Americans Considerable Surprise.
From the New Orleans Times-Democrat.
THE continental banking methods are
great surprise to Americans" said res
ident of New Orleans who has just return
ed from trip abroad. when I was in
Paris last month I met a friend one day
who had an English draft for f100 on one
OF the largest banks in the city and want
ed to get the money. He had nobody to
Identify him, but said half jokingly that
he was going to try for it anyhow, and we
went to the place together.
we were shown up stairs to large re-
ception room, set aside especially for Gus
toners, and presently a messenger came
in and took the draft. About dozen other
people were also waiting in the room, and
after delay of about ten minutes a we'll
dressed young gentleman came to the door
and bawled out in a loud voice: Mr.. John
Smith? My friend (call him John Smith
for shorD got up and was handed a bundle
of bank notes. No questions were asked,
and for all the bank people knew he might
have been Mr.. Paul Kruger OF Pre- oril
or Mr. Brigham H. Roberts of Utah, Or
Mr. Dooley of Archey road.
Il was astonished. and in going out
took occasion to ask the Well-dressed
young gentleman whether the bank
wasn't taking desperate chances doing
business in that catch-as-catch-can fash
ion. And why?' he inquired, opening his
eyes. | tried 10 explain, and he shruggei
his shoulders. we have never had any
losses he said"

Years ago the preliminary steps were
taken for this purpose, but further action
was postponed on account of the 1nancla4

given, is because the dark days Of inc
past have been succeeded by more pros
porous period. In consequence, the re.
solve has been taken TO press prompus,
to successful completion the erection oil

tain who fell at the gates Of Richmond
