New York, Dec. 23.--Thc pClearinE
House Association held Il meeting AT
noon to-day. Great interest was shown
IN the meeting. all the prominent banks
III the city being represented The
session was very short, LASTING only
seven minutes. A number Of the prom
incnt members nj the house of presi-
ucnt Tappan, of the Gallatin National
l5ank. last night decided upon h course
Ia be pursued. This was TO appoint 6:
loan committee with power TO issue
certificates tn an unlimited amount, ut
Inc rae of q per cent, with one-slx-
tcenth commission. After going into
session the following was adopted:
Resolved That u committee of five
be appointed BY the Chair. with, the
President, TO receive from the banks
members of the Associat ion, bills re-
ceiHhble and other securities To- be np-
proved by the said committee who
shall he authorized to issue to such de-
posting bnnks, loan certificates hc,rng
interest ut per cent. and one-sixt tecnth
on the face thereof, and such loan GER
tihcaies shall not be In excess of the
market value CT the securities or bills
receivable SO deposited ana such certi-
hcatcs and all the rules and regulations
heretofore adopted In the issue OF certi-
hcates shall he in force from issue.
The following was the commission ap-
pointed: +. -. Tappnn, president Gal
latin National Bank. chairman; j. w.
Simmons, of the Fourth National Bank;
George G. Williams. of the Chemical
National Bank; Il. II. Perkins. Jr.. Of
the Importers and Traders, and w A.
Nash, az the Corn Exchange
This is the same committee that acted
during the panic OF 1896.
1t was announced that no banks ap>
piled for any certificates The com
mittce of the clearinghouse Associn-
tion. which met at President Tappen's
residence last night. did not go into
session until midnight. After agreeing
upon the adoption of the foregoing, the
substance of il was ut once cahied to
prominent London brokers and to this
action is attributed the strong opening
OF the Amer markets there.
After the adjournment of to-day's
clearinghouse meeting President TAPS
pen said: our action was taken purely
as a preventive measure. We want 10
show the business men ur this country
that there is Il strens power behind
them"
ON the occasion of Il similar action
by the Clearing house in the panic OF
1883 over sI2.00O.000 of certificates were
issued by the loan company.
The committee of l-lG Of per cent.
on Clearing house certificates goes to
clearinghouse TO cover the work of is,
suing the certificates. No commission
was charged In 1893. but on ali issues
previous to that Il commission OF u
quarter of per cent. WAS charged. IL
is believed the action of the banks will
tend to prevent or At least diminish
gold shipments.
