J. L. linker , a Rralu dealer nnd banker of West Point , Nob. , was in the city ycslerday. John Clomeiils , lutcrosled In tlio furniture and agricultural business ut Rhmvood , Is In the city , O. A. Arnold hna retired from the firm of Kloniiin & Arnold of llreken How , who hu\e been running the Merchants & 1'imiicis bunk at Ausclmo. CHAXGE8 Ml.lSlil\G It AW. The Coulter bill , known ns senate file 137 , hus passed the senate. It Is aii act amending the present bunking law , passed in 1889 , and tatikcs such additions and changes an the ex perience of the past two years hus suggested , The banking law of 1SP9 wus compiled in u hurry and WMS regarded by bankers nt the tlmo ns being Incomplete. The Coulter bill Is Intended to muko up the deficiencies. It will bo of Interest to the general public as well as to nil bankers , lo learn just what is comprised In these ) changes and additions. In the llrst place the old law provided that three statements of the oondltlouof business should bo made yearly. The Coulter bill provides for four statements , the number called for under the constitution of the state , a fact which wus overlooked when tno law of 1889 was f ruined , The next provision regulates llio fees of Iho bank examiner t > o Unit Iho larger banks will have to pay moro and the smaller banks loss , The present law provides a penalty for the non-obsorvanco of certain regulations , but omitted to Include the violation of certain other regulations. It wasiibsened that rules to which no penalty was attached wuro fro queutly broken by the banks , The now amendment provides the sumo penalty for the non-obiervanco of uny of the provisions ot thu law nod for thu refusal or failure to curry out any of the Instructions ot the bunk- In i : uoiil. : What Is considered by banks ns a most im portant provision Is the raising of the amount of rcservu icquh ed of savings banks from 0 to 10 pur cent of Its deposits and Immediate lia bilities. Another Important provision of the amend ment Is tlia clause forbidding any corporation doing u commercial business to advertise for or roeolvo savings deposits. Some chungo is also m udo In the class of se curities in which savings banks are allowed to invest their funds. Chatlol mortgages are shut out entirely. Investments may bu mtidu In llrst mortgages on real estate. In stale , county , town and school district bonds , city and county warrants. The lust provision of the now bill states thut notlrmuun do business under ti corporate name. Hankers who have been Interviewed on the subject generally approve of the now hill und would bo pleased to sou It become the law of the state. Asone banker remarked , every provision of the now bill Is calculated tomnUo tno savings banks more seuuro and to prevent any Irroiilliirltleslnlho business. As stated at the beginning , the bill has passed the soiinle , but Us friends fcnr for Its safely In the house whuro it may bo crushed out by the rush of business. Why will You.
