BANKS AS REPOSITORIES
Treasury Statement as to Profit and Loss
in the Case.
More Favorable TO Country Than
to City Financial Insti-
tutiOns.

The discussion regarding United States
repositories and the arguments which have
lately been INDUCED in concerning the
placing of internal revenue receipts on de-
post with national banks has led Star
representative TO make inquiry at the Treas
Try department in reference to just what
profit accrues to national banks receiving
the favor Of such deposits. BY request the
Secretary of the Treasury directed the &C
tuary of the treasury to prepare a set of
tables which would carefully calculate the
profit. or, it works out more frequent
ly, the loss to bank which buys bonds
at the current market price, and deposits
them with the treasurer Of the United
States as security for public deposits.
Method of Calculation.
TO Illustrate the method Of calculation
the case OF 3 per cent Spanish war loan
bonds may be taken. They were selling
on the day that the calculation was made
at 11o.S75. an investment of s11O.315 would
therefore be necessary to buy 100000 of
bonds. II the bank should keep the de-
IosIS TOT year. Of which. of course
mere ls no assurance. 1t would receive 81
ooo interest on the bonds. 1t would hold
deposit of $4,000 against the par value
OF $4,000 of bonds deposited with the
treasurer, and keeping reserve of - ner
cent, 1t might loan the other ~ per cent
oL mat deposit. In a locality where inter-
est rates were ruling at s per cent it
would receive interest on public deposits
Sc loaned amounting to s4.2T5 making the
total receipts 1925. OF that 1899 must be,
set aside as sinking fund requirements TO
take care of the years proportion of the
premium on the bonds, surprising the bonds
to be paid off when the government will
hrst have the option in 1905 leaving net
receipts to the bank of Sc. 1856
II the bank had directly loaned its S11O-
90 winch 1t had TO invest In the bonds it
would have received S6.622 o. $3.50 more
thah IL would receive from the combined
interest on the bonds, and the interest on
the public deposits, making a loss in th,
operation of % Ter cent
applying the same method of calculation
IN per cent locality, there would be a
proht on the S110,315 investment of $40.
While In an per cent locality there would
be loss of 80 per cent. or S9SS
More Favorable to Country Banks.
The figures ara little more favorable to
country bank than to city bank as the
country bank has to keep a reserve of only
10 per cent. and may deposit three-fifths of
that at reserve center where it can
draw per cent. The following table shows
the profit loss on the various forms of
bonds II the investment is made by a coun-
try bank, or II made by a city bank, on
public deposits secured, and loaned out:
