TO FACILITATE COLLECTIONS
Tentative Plan Proposed to Non
Clearing House Members.

On order to facilitate the collection of
checks at local trust companies and State
banks not members of the Philadelphia
Clearing House Association tentative
plan has been submitted to each OF these
institutions.
Its principal features are that the in
stitutiOns be required to deposit funds in
amounts based on their capital with the
Clearing House, and would send their
runners to the Clearing House twice
day to make settlements. The latter feat
ure would succeed the present plan OF
each non-memner State bank and trust
company collecting its items by mes
senker from every other institution.
The amounts ot security 10 be deposited
at the Clearing House are fxed as fol-
lows First. ON 100000 capital or over,
10 per cent; second, on S500,00O to SSO0OOO,
II per cent, with maximum of $4,000;
third, S25O,O0O to s5O0. 900. 20 per cent, with
maximum OF $4,000; fourth. on $250,O00 or
less, not less than $4,000. and fifth. Clear
ing House Committee may require addi-
tional deposits from any institution whose
transactions make it desirable.
1t Is provided that II any institution
fails to appear at the Clearing House at
the stated hour prepared to make pay
ments due by il, tine amount shall be
supplied out OF the securities II has de-
posted, or at the option of the Clear
ing House Committee by advances from
the banks affected, which advances shall
constitute claims against the delinquent

have increased, but arrivals are ample
to meet the demand.

Corn and oats followed. Bearish reports
continue to flood the exchanges.

mage for transportation is holding bust
ness down
