"a MILLIONS IN
MISSISSIPPI BANKS
NUMBER OF STATE BANKS RE-
DUCED DURING YEAR
TO BOG.

jackson, Miss, Aug. 22.-The total
resources of the state and national
banks in Mississippi amount to $94.-
SS7,172.6S, according to figures Just
compiled by Robert L. Hail. secretary
OF the state banking department, Great
ed under an act of the last legislature
The resources of the 306 state banks
sum up $67,113, ,S34.46, and the 81 ma
tional banks, $27,773,33S.22.
Secretary Hall has issued a compar-
ative statement showing the condition
OF banks as of June 3O,1914-191S. On
June 30 last year there were 331 state
banks doing business in Mississippi. A
large decrease in the resources is
largely accountable from the fact that
since that time the number of state
banks has been reduced to 906.
The report shows a decrease of S.
2O7, ,599.76 in resources of state banks.
For state banks alone the deposits
show a decrease of $685. 1898.
According to the report the individu-
al deposits in state and national banks
on June 80, of this year totaled $751;
462,125.11, S3S,623,73 in state and
$12,S3S, ,3S5.16 in national banks.
The state banking department is
now in good working order, the ex-
aminers are making daily inspections
of banks, and every few weeks some
bank is coming in under the guarantee
of deposits provisions. The Merchants
Bank and Trust Company, of Jackson,
was the first bank in the state to quail
fly under the guarantee of deposits pro-
visions, since when 20 other banks
have complied with the guarantee pro-
visions and are now protected under
that clause of the banking law.
