New York, Feb. 6-The Mefchaht9 association of New York, represehtills the Wholesale and Retail Conllei eiai interests of the city, announced us ue clsion to-day to oppose the Aiaricii financial bill which has been preseii,eu in congress. The association mas Voteu to immediately lay its objection to ,h7 measure before New York's representa- tives in congress and to commuhicale with other commercial bodies throush- out the country with view to seculln5 their cooperation in the stand they have taken. The decision was paseu upon the report of a special committee which was appointed to make thor ough investigate of the various cur rency measures that have been propos- ed since the panic of last october
 This committee held conferences With Paul M. Warburg of Kuhn, Loep Company. representing the Central Bank plan: Charles A.

 At present" said Mir Whitman. I've are more interested in preventing the adoption of some dangerous makeshift measure, of which the Aldrich bill is a fair sample
 Explaining the associations opposlt- ion to the Aldrich measure, MT. Whit man said
 "The association regards as essen l tially unsound the principles embodied therein, that currency should be bas- l ed upon fixed securities of any descrip- l tion The note issues as well as the deposits of bank are obligations such on demand. and the bank should hold as security against such liabilition :. nothing but quick assets. such as act ual cash, secured notes payable on de- mand, or commercial paper, liquidating | itself at par al the end of short per- 1 iod of months It Is no safe function for a bank of deposit or issue to in- vest assets held against demand obllga- tions in long term notes, bonds or mort gages, the conversion of which into cash in times of stringency can only be accomplished at sacrifice of the princi- pal; if at all. The policy which might reasonably create an artificial market for the national obligations in time oi civil war cannot excuse an extension oi the same favor to state or municipal bonds and railroad mortgages in time of peace'

ATTACKS CORTELYOU Senator Culberson Charges Fla voritism to New York
 Banks.
TREASURY AIDED WALL ST.
Secretary is Charged With Violating Law in Six Partic-
 ulars.

Washington. Feb. 6.-Senator Gull leader made vigorous attack to-day on the secretary of the treasury, for his alleged fayoritsm to New York banks in the deposit of public money during the recent panic MT Culber- son charged that the national banks of the east especially New York, had received amounts far in excess of their share, and had used this money to bolster stock and promote gambling in Wall street. He charged that Seere- tary Cortelyou had misrepresented the facts in his recent response to the sen ate resolution of inquiry, and had made a studied effort in that state ment to protect the interests of the New York banks
 At the conclusion of MT Culberson's speech, Senator Hopkins, rep. of Hi nois one of the new members of the finance committee, came to the de- fence of the treasury department. He said that every charge made by the Texas senator had been fully answered in MT Cortelyou's statement. He said the secretary of the treasury had been actuated by patriotic impulses in the distribution of government funds, and had shown no favoritism There had been no partisanship or sectionalism, and, if any discrimination had been shown it was against. rather than for. the New York banks
 Culberson's Specifications.
 In opening Senator Culberson said that the reply of Secretary Cortelyou to the senate resolution established the fact that the treasury department had violated the law in six particulars, namely:
 1-In issuing Panama canal bonds, because it was not necessary to issue these bonds to defray expenditures in cident to the construction of the canal
 2-In excluding individual bidders from purchasing Panama bonds, pre- ferring national banks
 3-In using the proceeds of these bonds to bolster up banks contrary to law.
 4-In using the certificates of in- 0tpltuHtSS Witn lIlc soNtililltHl Huu ample funds.
 5-In permitting national banks to issue bank notes on the security of the per cent certificates, 1t being pro vided by law that such notes shall not be issued except upon the security of registered government bonds.
 6-In distributing public money un- justly and inequitably, whether popu- 1ation or capitalization be considered
 Senator Culberson said he was not speaking haphazard He said he had carefully investigated, and was pre- pared to charge that the government funds deposited in the New York banks during the panic had been used for purposes of speculation and ex- tortion.
