SURPLUS BILL OPPOSED
Small Savings Bank Men Fear
Its Effects.
STRONGER ONES BACK PLAN
Measure at Albany Would Com
pel Accumulation of 15 Per
Gent Reserve at Once.
~. Telegraph to The Tribune.


Albany Feb. 2l.-Representatives Of the
smaller savings banks of the state this
afternoon. at a hearing before the Senate
Committee on Banks. protested against the
Ferris bill, drafted by the State Savings
Rank Association and requiring the grad
nal increasing of savings bank surpluses
until 10 per cent is reached. They declared
that II would drive the smaller banks out
Of business and be of benefit only to the
large banks and trust companies.
The bill requires that every year saw
ings bank shall add 10 its surplus per-
centage Of its net earnings determined by
the difference between the percentage OF
the surplus il has on hand and Is per cent.
The remainder can be given TO the depos-
itors as interest.
The representatives Of the small and
Young banks hold that this plan would
drive their depositors away when they are
struggling for existence, because the banks
could not pay so high rate OF interest as
the large and we'll established institutions,
which have larger earnings and larger sur
pluses.
William II. Hotchkiss. cx-Superintendent
of Insurance. appeared against the bill as a
trustee of the American Savings Bank, OF
Buffalo. He said Il was an act TO avoid
the possibility Of the passage OF the Grady
bill which provides that a savings bank
with less than per cent surplus can pay
only per cent interest OF deposits. with
surplus of between and 10 per cent, a
bank could pay SIs per cent interest, and
with between 10 and 20 per cent II could pay
per cent Mr.. Hotchkiss said that the
Grady measure was considered too drastic
by the Savings Bank Association. and thar
the Ferris hill was drawn as compromise
In answer TO question put by mem
Der of a committee, Mr.. Hotchkiss said ne
did not think the bill would be so unfair IL
no bank were permitted to give more than
81 per cent interest.
T. T. Fisher and W. b. Akin, OF the
Bronx Savings Bank. held that no new
bank would stand under this BILL and that
many people who arc now encouraged to
save money would not do so II they had 10
travel ten miles TO make their deposits.
Others who spoke against the bill were
Senator Travis and ]. b. Cowan. OF the
Washington Heights Bank OF New York.
The measure was supported by Charles
A. Miller. OF the Savings Bank Of Utica, eX-
president or the savings Bahh AssoCldttOi''
He held that the surplus was the only
thing that protected tho savings bank de-
positor.
with the present rate Of decrease In
savings bank surpluses' he said. some
thing must be- done or this safeguard VIII
amount 10 nothing. and We viii all be de-
clared lnsolvent"
He said that since 1894 the average sur
plus Of savings banks Of the state had de-
creased from is per cent to about per
cent

ASK REFUND OF MILLIONS
Spokane Shippers Demand Reparation
from Western Railroads.

washington. Feb. 2l.-As a sequel TO the
Interstate Commerce Commissions decision
In the famous Spokane rate Gaze" that
freight charges to and from Spokane were
unreasonably cxorbitant, the shippers Of
that city to-day made demand upon va
rious northwestern and transcontinental
lines for S2O0OOOO reparation.
The complaint against the railroads was
filed with the commission here and covers
the alleged excessive charges exacted dur
ing the years 1910 and 1871. 1t Is the larg-
est single case OF reparation ever brought
before the commission, and amounts AL
most 10 AS much as the aggregate OF the
notable yellow pine cases OF 1907.
In it's determination OF the Spokane rate
case" the commission made material re-
duCtion in the freight rates to and from
Spokane. The refund asked is the differ
encc between the old rates and those fixed
by the commission as reasonable.
