BANKS MAINTAINING
HIGH LIQUID POSITION
Controllers Report Shows Mem

A recent statement by the controller

dition of member banks on June 80.

not abandoned their efforts to remain
in high state of liquidity.
In fact, their liquidity has been i'm
proved during the last year as measured
by the principal items entering into its
calculation, viz, the percentage of total
cash on hand, investments in Govern
ment securities and the amount due
from banks in relation to total de-
positS.
Calculated on this basis, it is found
that all member banks, as a group,
we're % per cent liquid on June so,
last, whereas on the same date last
year they were but 23 per cent liquid.
Reduced to actual figures, these insti-
tutions at the close of the last fiscal
year had deposit liabilities of S27,863.-
1000, while the total of cash on hand,
Government security investments and
due from banks aggregated $7,836, ,848,-
000 On the same date a year before
the institutions had $36,268 ,065 900 in
deposits and only $8,379,263,000 in
funds Of high liquidity.
BY way of contrast. several of the
largest New York City banks have
maintained high degree of liquidity
for more than year, in several in
stances being well over so per cent.
The surplus and undivided net
profits of all member institutions was
cut substantially during the same
period, dropping off from S3.545,5 $780,
900 on June 80, 1881, to S2,876, ,935 900
at the end of last June.

UNITED CIGARS REALTY
TRUSTEE is APPOINTED

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, September 10.-The
Irving Trust Co., receiver for the United
Cigar Stores of America, Inc, was ap-
pointed trustee in bankruptcy today for
the Cigar Stores Realty Holdings, Inc,
holding company for United Cigars real
estate.
The appointment was made by Ref
cree Irwin. KurtZ at a meeting of credit
ors. Attorneys for several leaseholders
objected, asking delay of one week to
give them opportunity to examine rec
ords and officials of the firm.
Attorneys for the Irving Trust Co.
asked delay Of two weeks to permit
examination of the activities of an
cillary receivers, who have been ap-
pointed in many of the 60 Federal dis
tricts in which the firm had stores.
The referee concurred with the trust
company in a contention that further
selection of ancillary receivers would
complicate the matter, but decided to
appoint the company trustee OF the
holding company nevertheless.

NEW PLAN TO AID
RAILROADS URGED
Bankers Discuss Formation
of Special Commission, With
Coolidge as Chairman.
BY FRANK III. MCCONNELL,

NEW YORK, September 10-New
York bankers who are directly interest
ed in the program of the National Asso-
citation of Mutual Savings Banks to par
ticipate actively in the settlement Of
railroad problems state that they al
ready have received assurances of strong
support from several parts of the Ma
ton.
Response, they say, has been un-
usually prompt. In their opinion, 1t
proves conclusively that the railroads,
for probably the first time in the twen-
tieth century. now seem to enjoy the
benefit of public good will, in contrast
to the nineteenth century public be
damned policy" days.
The savings bankers who comprise the
new committee which will crusade ag-
gressively with the object Of giving the
roads a more favorable opportunity to
compete with trucks and inland water
ways for freight traffic, are now dis
cuSSing plans.
One plan which has been discussed
tentatively by some of these bankers is
to encourage the formation of a spe-
cial commission or Government-spon-
sored body which would do in the rail-
road field what the Wickersham Com
mission was formed to do in the field
of law enforcement.
In order to give such commission
the benefit of impressive power and
prestige, it has been recommended that
man of outstanding reputation in
public affairs should be named as its
head. Several names have been dis
cussed tentatively, including that Of
former President Calvin Coolidge. al
though it is said that the Sphinx of
Vermont has not yet been approached
to see if he would regard such move
with favor.
In addition to this prospect, Wall
Street is currently mulling rumor that
President Hoover may next week an
nounce a special governmental commits
sion to study railroad problems. Mr..
Coolidge has been suggested in fairly
widespread rumors as a possible choice
to head such commission, in case the
President should elect to proceed with
its formation. AS yet, however, there
has been no intimation of an official
nature to indicate that the administra-
ton is contemplating the formation of
such commission.

Reserve Board Reports "a Per Cent
Average Drop for Whole
Country.
BY EDWARD c. STONE.

Sales in Washington department
stores in August, 1882, averaged las
per cent less in dollar amount than
sales in August, 1881, according to the
monthly report made yesterday by the
Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond
This moderate decline was the best
showing made by any city in the Fifth
district and also was much better than
the average for all the cities, which
was off 226 per cent.
Reports for the II Federal Reserve
districts, just announced at the head
office in Washington reveal a falling
off of "a per cent in August department
store sales. From this report it will be
noted that Washington retail stores
scored a 10 per cent better showing in
August than the average sales in the
whole country
Yesterdays Richmond report shows
that sales in Washington in the first
eight months of 1882 were 16.2 per cent
under the average for the correspond
ing period in 1881, against an average
for the fifth district of 202 per cent
and of "a per cent for the whole coun-
try.
Fifth District Cities Compared.
The sales reports from the leading
cities in the fifth district give a vivid
picture of trade conditions. The fol-
lowing percentage comparisons cover
business in August this year and last,
and also the first eight months Of both
years, the figures being furnished by sc
