The Bank of England is again prominently before the public in an unenviable light this week. It is now evident that the evils require severe outside pressure to secure correction.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer refused to answer questions in Parliament on the ground that the Bank is a private institution. He has, however, given certain vague but unfavorable rurances that one reform will be further insisted on by Parlement, namely, the resumpilon of public statements of the Bank's condition, which were discontinued in 1878. Public opinion will also probably Insist that the general banking Interests be represented among the directors of the Bank. The various joint stock and private banks of the country are the chief customers and users of the Bank of England, but these lastitutions have never had a representation in the bank's directorate.'
It cannot be denied that the Bank is out of date In both methode and men, and now that
