He gave the histoiy of the o-gani/ation nm

bership of 18.0CO and is inpidly glowing ,

Mrs. Oemge , of Muntio.il , read a paper on
'Ono ' Named 1'apar. " She lefened to tin
nannei in which banking is cained on In
England , and compared tli9 UK thud with that
if the United States ; also the state n ode of
naking loans , etc lie gave a buef stato-
nont of the mode of making loans in Canada ,
and also sumo leiuarks on endorsed and se
cured nauer and unsecuied paper. Ho re-
narked that the piactlco of humming on one
lamed paper was illegitimate. The legiti-
natl way to boriovv is to make personal
ipphc.ition to the bunker and lay the 1
case befoio him. All other modes should ! bo
abolished. The piper was received with a ]
nlause. At the chv-o o motion was made by
Mr. Cole , of New York , to return thanks ti
Geoigo foi the able paper. Hughes , of Cm-
cinnilti , seconded the resolution. Ho said i !
the suggestion by the speaker had been fol
lowed ni Now York they would not now J.ie

was uuinimotisly carried.
Mr. Williams lead a ptpor on bankruptcy

The follow in ? papei was presented fiom
Mr. Homy W. Yates , president of the Ne
braska National bank" , Omaha , Nebraska , on
Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Con
vention , 1 have always taken a great inteicst
in the icsnlts of those annual reunions of
bankers , but have never been able to attend
one , although a contiibutoi- from the hist
oitrani/atnm of the Ameiican Hankers" a < o-
cintion.
The questions th it aio now nppcimost in
the minds of the banking and financial com
niunity , mil to which icfeience h.n been
made , are , of cnuiM'i of the utmost import
ance , not only to the banks , butte
to the public at laifro. Much jrood ought
to loult from.ipiri-iin.il confidence , Mich a- .
is nlloided by tin- annual convention of bank
eif. It must hovvevei , bo admitted that gieat
oiioitimity | ] is also thuoby piesentcd fir the
ailing of vogue and impracticable plans , by
thu consideration and. discussion of which
much valuable time would bo wasted. The
conventions heiotofore luve. in a great meas n
me , escaped inflictions of this kind , and I
hope will ba able to do so ! > gam. I am kd to
remark from the fact that , like other members
of the association , I am often in reception of
ciicuUia detailing at length well meant but '
crude schemes of financial prctontion which
an-wholly impincticable.
Not a few binkeis , doubtless , are induced
to endoise thtso plans aftei n biief and ills-
cm-ive Lonsideiation , and of course , upon an
entirely one-sided and inadequate prDenta
tion of the scheme.
My own opinion is that we must rely only
upon ( "cpciience to guide us in time of panics \
and monetary peiturb.ation. I balievo great
advancuiunt h is been made since lh"l. ! New-
York city hold- , the kev to the situation , and
the country thoidd look to the banks there foi !
leadeislnp and example both fiom the
fact that it U the iin.inunl he.ut of oui ey.s-
torn , and bec.uiso we have there banket i of
the largest experience ami most cultuicd
juilgmi nt , It must , I think , bo generally ad-
inittid that this confidence in Now Yolk
bulks has been t-tiuiigly vindicated dining the
piesent panic 01 depression.
There may be mom for fuithei imptovo- ,
iiient or elaboration , but I doubt if any bettei
ifeiieial plan than the Now York C'leaung
lioiiso aiiangenient will over bo devised for
such times ; and if extended to the other laigo \t
