IN MEMORIAm.

Between the mourners at his head and
feet,
your"
The anxious heart, the restless brain are
still,
The gifted pen displaced, ineloquent
And all the forces OF his life are spent,
Submerged into inactive, sleeping will.
Stay! Shall the hopes OF unfedpited years
Be laid away, forgotten as asham7
calm
with all his cherished laurels in arrears?
oh, Western State, he labored with and led,
Till all the continent his mission felt
Who shall retrieve the injury you dealt
Now that your ever loyal friend is dead2

CROSSING THE BAR.
Alfred rennyson.

Alfred Tennyson.
Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning OF the bar,
When I put out to sea,
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam.
When that which drew from out the
boundless deep
Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell
And after that the dark
And may there be no sadness OF farewell
When / EMBARK
For tho from out our bourne OF Time
and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When have crossed the bar.

BANK TIONS.

Coming swift in the wake OF the
footing of a savings bank in Chicago,
the wreck of the Real Estate Trust
company OF Philadelphia, involving
millions of dollars, provokes anew
sharp criticism of officials charged
with the duty of examining financial
institutions. Much of the criticism Is
directed against bank examiners in
dividually. They are charged with In
competency, carelessness and even
collision. People generally, and the
victims particularly, cannot under
stand why a bank examiner. IL at all
competent, cannot discover crooked
business methods by an examination
Of the banks books and papers, more
especially when dishonesty extended
over period of years.
The truth is. bank examiners are
not so much at fault as the system of
bank examination. The difficulties en-
countered by examiners in determin-
ing the solvency of an institution are
practically insurmountable. This is
shown by the condition of the looted
institutions. In the Chicago Savings
bank were found notes for thousands
of dollars bearing the forged sigma
lures of men of high standing finan-
cially. Mortgages for specified sums
considered ample security we're found
to have been made by hired dummies.
Similarly in the Philadelphia institu-
ton forged paper was found, as we'll
as mortgage securities, wholly insult
ficient for the amounts loaned.
A bank examiner cannot possibly
know whether the paper shown him
bears the true signature of the maker,
unless he is familiar with the makers
autograph. He cannot determine of his
own knowledge whether the property
represented by mortgage is sufficient
protection for the loan. His work is
necessarily limited to an examination
of the books. the cash on hand and
the number and amount of the securi-
ties. If the accounts balance and the
securities are regular, the examiners
task is completed. Unless some OF the
securities or the accounts arouse sus-
picion and provoke inquiry the crooked
institution is free for six months or
year to pursue the course mapped
out by the dishonest manager.
Manifestly 1t is much easier to criti-
| else and point out defects than sug-
gest an adequate remedy. The de-
| fects of the present system of state ex-
aminations may be remedied to some
extent, but there will remain the In
ability of examiners to determine the
value and genuineness of securities
held by banks in different localities.
Stensland and Nipple carried on their
dishonest operations for years and
easily covered their tracks because ex-
aminations were necessarily superb
cial They did not reach security val
| ues, which form the basis of financial
solvency. Doubtless the system OF ex-
animation can be improved IL expert
knowledge of banking methods under
takes the task. Along with the rem
edy should go a law imposing severe
penalties on directors who do not d.
rect and a provision requiring two or
more officers or directors to approve
with their signatures every loan au-
thorized and sign checks drawn
against each loan account. Thus the
responsibility for honest business
methods will be placed on two or
more officers. and bank wrecking by
one officer prevented.
