The Wall, Street journal Says the
Banks Cannot d. Business
for Nothing.

Lack Of liberalitY on the part Of New

as discussed by. Minneapolis bank presi-

journal: The Wall Street paper, in an
swer to the interview, says in part:
This is western kick at the check
collection charges Of the New York clear
ing house. It is, of course natural for
the banks in Minneapolis to desire toJlave
their business done as cheaply as possible,
but why they should object. to charge
for the collection sof out town checks,
when they themselves would make the
same. charge under similar conditions, is
strange indeed. satS's
THE adoption of the check collection
charges by the New. York clearing house
has, indeed, been attended with much
friction even in this city, and opportunity
has been taken ofsthe charge by the banks
and trust companies outside of the clear
ing-house and by banks in Philadelphia
to obtain deposits at the expense of the
clearing house institutions. But the col
lection charges have demonstrated thei!
value. The cost of collections actually
exceed the charges now made for them
The saving to the clearing house bank:
Eby the check collection rules Is estimated
at as much as 100000 a year.
lit Is not at all likely that the rules
Twill be changed, even at the demand O
Minneapolis banks. What is more likel,
is: that outside banks in New York ane
the banks In other cities will finally Sc,
that it is to their advantage to establish
la similar system. It is said that on
outside institution in this city, in orde
to get the business Of a; large concern

" AS A BANNER YEAR.
Fiscal Year at Local Customs Of
fee Establishes a New
Record.
Receipts Are More Than Double the
Figure Of Three Years
Ago.

Much the largest on record was the
amount Of duties paid on imports at the
Minneapolis custom house in the fiscal
year ending yesterday. The total was
S429, 022.S3. This is an increase Of more
than 16 per cent over the duties paid last
year. when the total was $36S,359.76.
The receipts of the local custom house,
says Collector Clayton r.. Cooley, have
risen steadily since the office was estab-
lished, fifteen years ago.
But the growth within the last three
years has been remarkable. Since 1900
the local receipts have more than doubled.
They have risen from 500, 1925 to
s42s,o22.s3. an increase Of nearly 10 per
cent
These heavy importations. the collec-
tor explains. represent general prosperity
in Minneapolis commerce. The additional
imports have been made by manufacture
ers. by jobbers and by retailers. The in
crease is observed in many varieties OF
imports. No change has occurred in the
relative position Of burlaps, which re-
main at the head Of local imports. The
burlaps come from India. They are man.
