Country correspondents of the city
savings banks are receiving money
on exactly the same terms as the
city depositors in the savings insti-
tutions. This has been true. in fact,
since the opening of the banks in
their old quarters, but nothing has
been mentioned concerning that sig
nificant fact.
The policy pursued in this matter
manifestS the confidence of the bank
ers in the existing situation as
strongly as possible. There is no
limit, at the banks that have opened,
TO the amounts that may be drawn
out by the interior banks on accounts,
and the other institutions to open
viii probably follow along the same
lines.
Such is the opinion of men behind
the desks where money has been
freely paid TO depositors in the past
where the business of banking is
pursued.
The commercial banks of San
Francisco are making loans to COM
mercial men just as before the fire
and are, in fact, conducting their
business without any departure in
method from the customary one The
volume of business at the CONNER
cial banks is reported by Wellington
Gregg. secretary of the Clearing
House Association, TO be very large
All the acts of the bankers to date
have tended TO assure the Eastern
bankers of the exceptionally strong
financial position of San Francisco.
The demand for money at the saw
ingS banks is leSSening. Thereby II
is proved that the depositors who
drew money on the opening day of
the banks desired il to meet bills and

Ok street is indicated by a figure of an
