BIGGEST BANK ON EARTH.
Financial Combination i'm London That
VIII Dwarf All Others.

In London banking com binat1On IS
now in progress that will put the two
largest New York banks far in the
background. This is the combination
of the biggest of the London banks
and the one that ranks thirteenth on
the list. or the LlOyds bank, limited.
and the Manchester and Liverpool
District Banking company, limited
The new combined London bank will
be the largest banking institution in
the world and Will OvershadOw even
the big government banks. like the
Bank of England and those of the
French. German and Russian nations.
The striking fact about that cOmbi-
nation is that it is a consolidation Of
the most important of city banks and
the largest country banks. In other
words, it is an alliance between the
two largest of the types that handle
this distinctive business
Banking laws here and in England
are radically different. The privilege
of English banks to have branches is
denied to our national banks. and this
is a vital influence in bringing about
mammoth banks abroad, while it re-
stricts the similar growth of Amer
lean institutions. State banks in New
York and most of the other states
have this privilege. but the charters
of these are not so liberal, and are not
regarded with the same favor as those
of national banks, which also have the
valuable and profitable privilege to
issue notes and to receive government
deposits. Many of the state banks
have a number of branches and trust
companies locally, and in other sec
tons are developing on the same lines.
The largest number of branches of
any CT our state banks is very small
as compared to those maintained by
the English banks. Tie largest here
has less than twenty branches. while
one Of the banks IN che big London
combination has ninety-five and the
other almost as many--Bankers
