good, sound and logical reasons for the adoption
Of the shorter hour plan,
Closing at 9 O'Clock will allow the banking in
terests OF Richmond to prepare and send off the
days mail and have 1t Northern-bound trains
In such time as to place 1t in the hands of New
York bankers the next morning, instead of the
next afternoon, as has too long been the case
and inconvenience. Opportunity will be afford
cd to make two mail trains instead of one,
which is no inconsiderable item, since Richmond
is one of the principal clearing points for the
South, and its banks play important part in
the negotiation of countless loans and other
financial matters having a New York END"
Greater time will be afforded the bank employees
to straighten out the institutions affairs, bal
ance books, accounts, etc, and get them ready
for the next days business, and more opportu-
nifty for recreation and the enjoyment of sun
shine and life will be offered An element Of
protection presents itself because the ability to
get into closer and quicker touch with New
York banks means the more speedy detection OF
trsfackers in spurious paper and makes local
banking more sure and safe than it is to-
day.
