A REASONABLE CHARGE PROPER.

To the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir. While the New-York Clearing House rule, az
applied to the large mercantile houses and manu-
factories Of your city. may seem to work a little
uniistly because OF the large balances ordinarily
carried by them IN their respective hanks Il does
seem TO me that a reasonable charge TO small con-
Germs which as rule have little or no balance on
deposit Is a perfectly fair one. The Clearing House
would undoubtedly have displayed better judgment
had rule been adopted giving the city banks
some latitude in the matter OF these charges. in
stead OF the arbitrary law enacted by them
