The paid-up capital in gold shares appears to have been laid down in the East at pay, so that 40 per cent. of the Indian portion of it may be lost in the rate of exchange, Of the securities, none of them Consola, held by the bark, the best were pledged for an advance of 345,000, and it does not lock as if the bank, after losing all its capital, would have enough left to pay its depositors and other creditors more than ras in the IL
In announcing its failure the directors of this bank went rather out of their way to do an ill form to the other banks trading in the East, by was due to the fall insinuating that the · stoppage in the sliver exchanges, and not to the causes here indicted. Their object, apparently, was to alm a blow at these other banks in order to divert to same ratent attention from the real causes which had operated in bringing their own Institu lan to grief, and had these other banks been really in the post on where the manageia ef the Or estil did not hesitate to say they were, the effect of such a statement might have been most disastrous. Happly these banks had been fare warned for a efficient length of time to have ampy protected themselves against any adverse cons quinces likely to anse from the collapse of the Oriental, and as a matter of fact there is nothing in the depression of the Eastern ex- chan es to cause difficulty to any bark which sticks to its proper business. No bank which eos fines itself to mercantile offsirs has anything to fear from fcruations in the exchange beyond light and temporary losses, provided always that it takes care to write down the sterling money which it has borrowed in England to the silver valuation when it is placed in the East, and most, if not all, if the existing Indian Banks have done this. The old Chartered Mercantile, it is true, bas neglected to do so with its paid up capital and reserve, but in
regard to is deposits, watch alone can be with drawn, it has, we believe, made some provision Therefore niz present cause for alarm exists with regard to the position of these other in stitutions. They are probably on the whole in a healthier posiilón than they were some years ago, barring lases from frands, such as those or which the Chartered Mercantile is expected to lose to ocol
