SERVICE CHARGE HITS
SOME SMALL ACCOUNTS
Others Brought Up to Required
Amount, Baltimore Bankers Find.
Aids Big Institutions.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, October S.-The new
ruling of the Baltimore Clearing
House Association, which calls for a
service charge of 81 a month on &C.
counts with a monthly balance of less
than 5000, and regulating the amount
of interest to be paid on accounts of
more than $500, has caused the clos
ing of some checking accounts, the
transfer of many small balances to
savings accounts and the consolida-
ton OF number of accounts which
heretofore had been divided between
two or more banks, according to
statements by bank officials. Many
small accounts subject to check have
been withdrawn and the funds de.
posted in the savings department of
the institutions which have been Gus.
todians of them or transferred to other
banks. Mutual savings banks are re-
ported to have been benefited by this
operation.
Several accounts which averaged
less than the minimum service charge
requirement and the minimum
amount upon which interest may be
paid have been brought up to the re.
quired average. Many small deposit
tors who heretofore had accounts i'm
two or more banks. each averaging
less than 5000, have been consolidated.
In other words, all the funds have
been deposited in single bank.
The majority of bankers say that
the ruling has been beneficial; others
say that it has helped the big i'm.
stitutions at the expense of the
smaller ones.

PERE MARQUETTE DENIED

Proposed 30 Per Cent Stock Dis
tribution Held Unjustifled by
Federal Body in Decision.

By the Associated Press.
The Pere Marquette Railway was
denied permission today to declare
20 per cent stock dividend amounting
TO s9,009,200 by the Interstate Com
merce Commission, which held that
the financial structure and situation
of the Pere Marquette Co. did not JUS
tify such a dividend.
considering the financial structure
of the Pere Marquette and the pur-
poses for which surplus should be
accumulated" the commission said,
1.-The amount of its invested surplus
is insufficient to justify distributing
all or any part of it to stockholders as
q stock dividend.
Moreover, as the proposed issue of
stock would result in the capital liza
bilities exceeding the capitalizable
assets, the granting Of authority to
: Issue stock for distribution as stock
dividend prior to the finding Of the
final valuation of the property would
not appear to be compatible with the
public interest"

PRICES HELD DOWN
BY STORAGE BUTTER
Arrivals at Four Big Centers
Heavier-Supplies Of Fancy
Stock Reported Limited.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, October S.-Supplies of
fancy butter on all markets are linn
tied, but, with buyers substituting
storage butter in lieu of fresh, any
tendency to advances in price are
curbed. Sentiment regarding the fu-
ture trend of the butter market. as
shown by trading in December and
January options, appears less firm, but
with no decided weakness in evidence.
Arrivals of butter at the four chief
markets are heavier than week
ago. The spread between prices at
Chicago and the Eastern markets
would encourage this. Receivers in
some quarters, however, report also
a slight increase in shipments from
factories.
Indications point to a fairly salts
factory volume of butter production
during the Fall and Winter. Excellent
pastures have been the rule through
out a large portion of the producing
sections. and the dairy COW should go
into Winter feed in prime condition.

LONDON, March 23.-AmericRn
art dealers in London were recently
beaten by the National Art Gallery
in securing the famous Titan "Holy
Trinity"
The picture was first believed to be
a copy Of the picture of the same
title by Titan in the Prado Gallery
at Madrid. After a cleaning, how
ever, it was found that the London
Holy Trinity" differed in number
of details from the Madrid picture
and experts decided it was not re-
duced copy, but sketch Of the
larger picture in the Prado.
Several American dealers were pre-
pared to pay large sums for the pic
ture, but the National Gallery Sc
cured the first refusal on it and
eventually bought it. The price is
reported to have been about 100000.
