PROTECTING THE DEposITon.

In Omaha the other day a depositor
In one Of the banks applied for ST.
900 i'll currency. The man was in
toSicated, and the teller. having q
pretty good idea that the money would
be squandered il given to a man in
that condition, refused to pay it, al
though the man had sufficient money
in the bank, and everything was quite
regular.
The man did not apply to the courts
for relief. He merely went out and
proclaimed loudly that the bank had
his. money n refused to give it up.
The bank officials have scarcely vet
recovered their breath after the run
that was started, and they had a very
interesting time of it for a day or two.
Tho teller who, in the goodness OF his
heart tried to protect a depositor from
certain loss has doubtless made up his
mind thai the mex man who wants
to draw money can have it, drunk
OF sober. if his recount is good and
his papers regular.
This is a rather extreme illustra-
ton Of one Of the things with which
every banker has to contend on oc-
casion. If he knows that a depositor
is drawing money for the purpose Of
investing in some wild cat speculation
in which he is pretty certain to lose,
his natural impulse is to utter a warm
ing. But. il he does, What happens?
The depositor at once concludes that
the banker does not wish to let go Of
the money. and is trying to keep his
customer Out Of a good thing in order
that he himself may receive the inter-
est OH the deposited money.
The banker. in such a case. is in an
unpleasant p~redicament. If he uttcrs
the warning which he knows is called
for. he shakes the confidence of his
customer. II he does not, he secs a
customer who may he a personal
friend performing an act and taking
a risk which he is. convinced is foolish
and dangerous. What should he do?
