CO-OPERATIVE BANKS.
The increase in number of the co-operative banks has been
small as compared with the phenomenally large increase of last
year, but the increase in assets and business transacted shows
a very large, healthy and satisfactory growth.
In 1889, 27 co-operative banks commenced business, an
increase over 1888 of almost fifty per cen t; the past year but
10 new banks have been established, an increase of ten per
cent. Oct. 31, 1889, the commencement of the fiscal year,
there were 93 banks with assets of $7,106,628.77 ; Oct. 31,
1890, at its close, 103 banks with assets of $9,264,833.34,
showing an increase in assets of $2,158.,204.57, the largest
yearly increase within the history of these banks, even larger
by $500,000 than the year previous, with its growth in number
of 27 institutions.

BANK COMMISSIONERS’ REPORT.

[Jan.

The increase in amount of monthly dues over 1889 is $745,707.33, the amount of monthly dues received during the year
is $3,352,534.61, a monthly average of $279,377.88. When

ing further that ninety-two percent, of the entire assets of these
banks is invested in loans on real estate, thereby securing homes
for the members, we are forced to observe that they appear not
only as educators, teaching to save, but also the acquiring of
property, the establishing of homes, which is the surest
foundation of our government and society.

From the above statement we note that for every dollar con­
tributed by the members of these institutions, taken as a whole,
there stands to their credit over thirteen per centum surplus in
profits capital, which represents the earnings credited to the
shareholders.
The amount of property held under foreclosure is less than
$50,000, comparatively a small amount, but from the observa­
tions of this Board larger than it ought to be, and arises in
many cases from a reaching out too far from the locality of the
banks making the loan.
The principle governing these banks is local benefit, and

should be to get its members and place its loans in its imme­
diate locality.
When, therefore, it steps outside of this
province to transact business somewhat, if not largely, simply
for profit, or becomes engaged in developing certain property
remote from its home, it can but assume business risk and its
attendant consequences.
A reasonable limit to the growth of an institution of this kind
is an element of its strength ; therefore seeking business for
purely business profit can be looked upon but with apprehension.

comparisons will be observed : —

FOREIGN COMPANIES.
This title is used to designate companies organized under the
laws of States other than Massachusetts, doing business after
the manner of the Co-operative Banks of this Commonwealth,
and commonly known as “ National ” Building and Loan As­
sociations.
The Legislature of 1890 passed an act (chapter 310), regu­
lating, and, in a degree, controlling corporations, associations or
persons chartered or empowered to transact business by the
laws of other States, and engaged in transacting business in
this Commonwealth, in the manner o f our co-operative banks.

BANK COMMISSIONERS’ REPORT.

[Jan.

By the provisions of said act, such foreign chartered or
empowered corporations or associations are obliged to con­
form to certain requirements, designed to protect and par­
tially secure the citizens of this Commonwealth, patrons or
depositors in such institutions, from loss. A further purpose
was to place restrictions upon them, and still further to pro­
hibit such of those corporations or associations whose plans and
methods were not satisfactory to this Board from transacting
any business whatsoever in this Commonwealth.
Under the powers of said act this Board has granted permis­
sion to three such institutions to transact business, viz. : —
American Building Loan and Investment Society of Chicago, 111. ;
Minnesota Saving Fund and Investment Company of Minneapolis,
Minn. ;
Security Building and Loan Association of Minneapolis, Minn. ;

and they have conformed to all the requirements of said act.
Permission has been refused to one such institution, The
People’s Building, Loan and Savings Association of Geneva,
N. Y.
Only four formal applications have been made to this Board ;
several verbal applications were made, however, but upon learning
the full intent, purpose and requirements of the law no formal
application was made.
Action has been taken by this Board in the case o f one corpo­
ration for violation of the provisions of said chapter 310, Acts
of 1890. The Railway Building and Loan Association of
Minneapolis, Minn., and its agent, was convicted in the Supreme
Judicial Court, 1890, and enjoined from further transaction of
business.
Action has also been taken, and is now pending, upon another
institution for similar violation.
Annual, or any, periodical examinations of these institutions
are not required of or made by this Board ; and to guard against
any impression becoming prevalent that these institutions or socie­
ties have the same identical care, control and supervision as the
co-operative banks of our own Commonwealth, a prohibitory
clause (sect. 5) is inserted in the permission or license.
On the following page will be found the full form of permission
or license granted by this Board to such institutions : —

F orm of L icense.
To whom it may concern :

By virtue of the authority given to the Board of Commis­
sioners of Savings Banks by the provisions of Chapter 310 of
the Acts of the Legislature of the Commonwealth of Massachu­
setts for 1890, approved May 21, the * * * having depos­
ited with the Treasurer and Receiver-General of this Common­
wealth the requisite amount required by said chapter 310, is
hereby authorized to transact business in said Commonwealth
till the authority hereby granted is suspended or revoked, in
the manner set forth by its charter and by-laws at the date of
its application, and submitted with said application, subject to
the following conditions and restrictions : —

Conditions and R estrictions.
1st. A sworn statement of condition or balance sheet of the
assets and liabilities of said Company as per books, on the last day
of each month, shall be made to this Board of Commissioners within
fifteen days after the expiration of each month, in such form as shall
be satisfactory to said Board of Commissioners.
2d. A sworn statement in detail, giving amount transacted by
each agent, agency, local board, etc., shall be made to said Board
within ten days after the expiration of each month, showing the
aggregate amount of business transacted in this Commonwealth for
the month previous.
3d. A certified copy of the certificate received annually from the
bank examiner, and certified copies of all returns made to the State
authorities, must be made to this Board.
4th. The required fifteen per centum of all business transacted in
said Commonwealth, to be deposited with the Treasurer and ReceiverGeneral of this Commonwealth, shall be so deposited on or before the
twentieth day of each month for the business transacted in the month
previous, under the special penalty of revocation of this license.
5th. The provisions of said chapter 310 not requiring annual
examinations by this Board, the impropriety of said Association
publishing or advertising that they are under the supervision of the
Board of Commissioners of Savings Banks is apparent and is hereby
prohibited.
6th. This license or authority for transacting business in this
Commonwealth shall be published in full and furnished to each and

[Jan.

every person transacting business therewith, and may be revoked
without notice.

The amount of funds paid to the Treasurer and ReceiverGeneral of this Commonwealth, in conformity to section 2,
chapter 310, Acts of 1890, is as follows : —
American Building Loan and Investment Society of Chicago,
111 , —

The above deposits cover amount of business transacted to,
and including, Oct. 31, 1890.
V iolations of Chapter 310, A cts of 1890.

For want of time and opportunity, violations of the abovementioned chapter cannot be readily detected, or, if discov­
ered, be attended to by members of this Board, as has been
demonstrated this past year. Some further provisions should
be made to protect our citizens under this statute. W e suggest
that it might be done by a division of the penalty imposed, a
certain portion being awarded to the complainant.
R evere Co- operative B ank .

This bank was incorporated Feb. 10, 1888, and commenced
business Feb. 16, 1888, issuing 127 shares, upon which had
been paid into the treasury, by monthly instalments, the sum
of $300.
The bank not meeting with the success anticipated, it has

discontinued business, and the full sum paid in by the mem­
bers has been returned to them, as appears by receipts on file
in this office.
The liabilities of the bank therefore having been liquidated,
we recommend that the corporation be dissolved.
Canadian Co- operative B ank .

This bank was incorporated May 2, 1885, and commenced
business May 14, 1885.
It appears by sworn affidavits of the secretary and treasurer
o f this bank, on file in this office, that but 61 shares in all were
issued, all of which have been withdrawn and repaid to its 33
shareholders.
The affairs of the bank having been closed, and its liabilities
liquidated, we recommend that the corporation be dissolved.

MORTGAGE LOAN COMPANIES,
As has been the practice heretofore, the examinations of
these companies, mostly made by experts as permitted by
statute, have been confined to the books, accounts and securities
in their Boston offices, and have been made as thoroughly and
carefully as is possible in any company whose business is prin­
cipally transacted outside this Commonwealth.
The character of the business of these companies is so
entirely dissimilar to that of any other institution under the
supervision of this Board, and it is so utterly impossible for it
to gather full and accurate information regarding their methods,
value of securities and ability to meet all their engagements,
that we renew our suggestion of last year, viz. : —
“ In view of the fact that similar companies doing business
in this Commonwealth, though chartered by other States, are
under the supervision of a commissioner appointed by this
Commonwealth, who does visit and examine their agencies and
their loans, we recommend that these two companies, and
others which may be chartered in the future under the provi­
sions of chapter 387 of the Acts of 1888, be placed under the
supervision of the commissioner of foreign mortgage corpora­
tions.”

COLLATERAL LOAN COMPANIES,
Two chartered corporations only are transacting business for
the purpose of loaning money on chattel mortgages or pledge,
— the Collateral Loan Company, Boston ; Workingmen’s Loan
Association, Boston.
The annual financial statement of each (Corporation will be
found on pages 212 and 213 respectively.
The annual examination of these companies, as allowed by
statute, has been made by an expert and in a thorough manner.
His report is on file in this office.
In accordance with legislation of 1890, the State director of
each of these companies has approved the annual statement
required to be made to this Board.
Conclusion.

The statutes governing co-operative banks and mortgage loan
and investment companies, corrected to date, will be found in
the appendix.

[Chapter 310;, Acts of 1890.]

An A ct

in relation to the business of co- operative banking .

Be it enacted, etc , as follow s:

Section 1. Except as is hereinafter provided, no person, association or corpo­
ration shall carry on the business of accumulating the savings of its members and
loaning to them such accumulations in the manner of a co-operative bank within
this Commonwealth, unless incorporated under the laws thereof for such purpose.
Sect . 2. The board of commissioners of savings banks may authorize any
such association or corporation duly established under the laws of another state
to carry on such business in the Commonwealth, but said association or corpora­
tion shall not transact such business in this Commonwealth unless it shall first
deposit with the treasurer of the Commonwealth the sum of twenty-five thousand
dollars and thereafter a sum equal to fifteen per cent, of the deposits made in such
association or corporation by citizens of the Commonwealth, the amount of per­
centage of deposits so required to be determined from time to time by said board
of commissioners of savings banks; or in lieu thereof the whole or any part of
said sum may consist of any of the securities named in the first, second and third
clauses of section twenty of chapter one hundred and sixteen of the Public
Statutes and acts amendatory thereof, at their par value, and the said deposit shall
be held in trust by said treasurer for the protection and indemnity of the residents
of the Commonwealth with whom such associations or corporations respectively
have done or may transact business. Said moneys or property shall be paid out
or disposed of only on the order of some court of competent jurisdiction made on
due notice to the attorney-general of the Commonwealth, and upon such notice to
the creditors and shareholders of such association or corporation as the court shall
prescribe. For the purpose of ascertaining the business and financial condition
of any such association or corporation doing or desiring to do such business, said
board may make examinations of such associations or corporations at such times
and at such places as said board may desire, the expense of such examinations
being paid by the association or corporation examined, and may also require re­
turns to be made to them in such form and at such times as they may elect. When­
ever, upon examination or otherwise, it is the opinion of said' board that any such
association or corporation is transacting business in such manner as to be hazard­
ous to the public, or its condition is such as to render further proceedings by it
hazardous to the public, said board shall revoke or suspend the authority given to
said association or corporation, but this section shall not prevent such a bank or
institution, incorporated under the laws of another state, from loaning money upon
mortgages of real estate located within the Commonwealth.
Sect. 3. Every such person, association or corporation transacting business in
the Commonwealth at the time of the passage of this act shall, within sixty days
after such passage, conform to the requirements of this act.
Sect. 4. Whoever violates any provision of the preceding sections shall be
punished by a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars; and any provision thereof
may on petition be enforced by injunction issued by a justice of the supreme judi­
cial court or of the superior court.
S ect. 5.

This act shall take effect upon its passage.

by the corporation for that purpose. Upon such with­
drawal the shareholder’s account shall be settled as fol­
lows ; — From the amount then standing to the credit of
the shares to be withdrawn there shall be deducted all
fines, a proportionate part of any unadjusted loss, to­
gether with such proportion of the profits previously cred­
ited to the shares as the by-laws may provide, and such
shareholders shall be paid the balance : provided, that at
no time shall more than one-half of the funds in the
treasury be applicable to the demands of withdrawing
members without the consent of the directors.
The
directors may, at their discretion, under rules made by
them, retire the unpledged shares of any series at any
time after four years from the date of their issue, by
enforcing the withdrawal of the same ; but whenever there
shall remain in any series, at the expiration of five years
after the date of its issue, an excess above one hundred
unpledged shares, then it shall be the duty of the directors
to retire annually twenty-five per centum of such excess
existing at said expiration of five years after the date of
its issue, so that not more than one hundred unpledged
shares shall remain in such series at the expiration of nine
years from the date of its issue, and thereafter the direct­
ors may in their discretion retire such other unpledged
shares as they consider the best interests of the bank to
require : provided, that whenever under the provisions of
this section the withdrawal of shares is to be enforced the
shares to be retired shall be determined by lot, and the
holders thereof shall be paid the full value of their shares,
less all fines and a proportionate part of any unadjusted
loss; provided also, that shares pledged for share loans
shall be treated as unpledged shares.

Shares may be issued in the name of a minor, and if so
issued may, at the discretion of the directors, be with­
drawn, in manner as provided in section two of this act,
by such minor, the parent or guardian of such minor, and
in either case payments made on such withdrawals of
shares shall be valid. When a share or shares are held
by any one in trust for another, the name and residence
of the person for whom such share or shares are held shall
be disclosed ; and the account shall be kept in the name
of such holder as trustee for such person; and, if no
other notice of the existence and terms of such trust has
been given in writing to the corporation, in the event of
the death of the trustee, such shares may be withdrawn
by the person for whom such deposit was made or by his
legal representatives.
Sect. 9. When each unpledged share of a given series shares,^when
reaches the value of two hundred dollars, all payments of J,887;2n*§1>
dues thereon shall cease, and the holder thereof shall be i887,2i6,§5.
paid out of the funds of the corporation two hundred dol­
lars thereof, with interest at the rate of six per cent, a
year from the time of such maturity to the time of pay­
ment : provided , that at no time shall more than one-half
of the funds in the treasury be applicable to the payment
of such matured shares without the consent of the direct­
ors ; provided fu rth er , that when any series of shares,
either pledged or unpledged, reaches maturity between
the dates of adjustment of profits, or whenever shares are
retired between such dates, the holders of such shares
shall in addition to the value thereof, be entitled to
interest at the rate of six per cent, per annum for
all full months from the date of the preceding adjust­
ment.
Chapter one hundred and seventeen of the Public f8^ n2d5“ entStatutes is amended as follows, by adding to section
nine the following words: ‘ ‘ And that before paying

made for all necessary and proper expenses and for the with­
drawal of shares, shall, at each stated monthly meeting, be
offered to the members according to the premiums bid by
them for priority of right to a loan. Each member whose
bid is accepted shall be entitled upon giving proper security
to receive a loan of two hundred dollars for each share held
by him, or such fractional part of two hundred dollars as the
by-laws may allow. If a balance of money remains unsold
after a monthly sale, the directors may invest the same in
any of the securities named in the second clause of section
twenty of chapter one hundred and sixteen, or may loan the
same upon the shares of the corporation, on the approval of
the directors or investing committee thereof, at the highest
rate paid at the last preceding monthly sale of such moneys.
S ec t. 11.
Premiums for loans shall consist of a per­
centage charged on the amount lent in addition to interest, and shall be deemed to be a consideration paid by
the borrower for the present use and possession of the
future or ultimate value of his shares, and shall, together
with interest and tines, be received by the corporation as
a profit on the capital invested in the loan, and shall be
distributed to the various shares and series of said capital
as hereinafter provided.
S e c t . 12.
A borrowing member, for each share bor­
rowed upon, shall, in addition to his dues and monthly
premium, pay monthly interest on his loan at the rate of
six per cent, per annum until his shares reach the ulti­
mate value of two hundred dollars each, or the loan has
been repaid; and when said ultimate value is reached,
said shares and loan shall be declared cancelled and satis­
fied, and the balance, if any, due upon the shares shall be
paid to the member.
Any corporation organized under said chapter one hun­
dred and seventeen may provide in its by-laws that the
bid for loans at its stated monthly meeting shall, instead
of a premium, be a rate of annual interest upon the sum
desired, payable in monthly instalments. Such bids shall
include the whole interest to be paid, and may be at any
rate not less than five per centum per annum.

number of shares pledged and the amount of money
advanced thereon, and shall be conditioned for the pay­

their value as adjusted at 'the last adjustment and valua­
tion of shares before the time of the loan.
If the borrower neglects to offer security satisfactory to
the directors within the time prescribed by the by-laws,
his right to the loan shall be forfeited, and he shall be
charged with one month’s interest and one month’s pre­
mium at the rate bid by him, together with all expenses,
if any, incurred; and the money appropriated for such
loan may be re-loaned at the next or any subsequent
meeting.

thereof; and for each two hundred dollars so repaid one
share of stock shall be released from pledge.
S e c t . 15.
Members who make default in the payment
their monthly dues, interest and premiums, shall be
charged a fine not exceeding two per cent, a month on
each dollar in arrears. No fines shall be charged after the
expiration of six months from the first lapse in any such
payment, nor upon a fine in arrears. The shares of a
member who continues in arrears more than six months
shall, at the option of the directors, if the member fails
to pay the arrears within thirty days after notice, be de­
clared forfeited, and the withdrawing value of the shares
at the time of the first default shall be ascertained, and,
after deducting all fines and other legal charges, the bal­
ance remaining; shall be transferred to an account to be
designated the “ Forfeited Share Account,” to the credit
of the defaulting member. Said member, if not a bor­
rower, shall be entitled, upon thirty days’ notice, to
receive the balance so transferred without interest from
the time of the transfer, in the order of his turn, out of
the funds appropriated to the payment of withdrawals.
All shares so forfeited or transferred shall cease to partici­
pate in any profits of the corporation accruing after the
last adjustment and valuation of shares before said first
default.

dues, interest, premium or fines for more than six months,
the directors may, at their discretion, declare the shares
forfeited, after one month’s notice, if the arrears continue

and to be held by, the member; and said pass-book shall
be plainly marked with the name and residence of the
holder thereof, the number of shares held by him, and
the number or designation of the series or issue to
which said shares respectively belong, and the date of
the issue of such series. All moneys so received shall be
originally entered by the proper officer in a book to be
called the “ cash-book,” to be provided by the corpora­
tion for the purpose, and the entries therein shall be so
made as to show the name of the payer, the number of
shares, the number or designation of the series or issues
of the particular share or shares so entered, together with
the amount of dues, interest, premiums and fines paid
thereon, as the case may be. Each payment shall be
classified and entered into a column devoted to its kind.
Said cash-book shall be closed after the termination of
each stated meeting, and shall be an exhibit of the receipts
of all moneys paid at said meeting. All payments made
by the corporation for any purpose whatsoever shall be
by order, check or draft upon the treasurer, signed by the
president and secretary, and endorsed by the persons in
whose favor the same are drawn. The name of the payee,
the amount paid, and the purpose, object or thing for
which the payment is made, together with its date, shall
be entered on the margin of said order, check or draft.
