MIR. BENEFITS Address.
Mr.. Bennett said in part:

Since our last meeting the financial con-
dltiOn Of the country has been unsatls1ac-
tory, from the standpoint of the manufact-
urer, the business man and the banker.
The uncertainty and unrest which have
prevailed. coupled with the political activi-
ties of the past few months, have made
the conservative element refrain from en-
gaging in new undertakings and become
more careful in concentrating It's available
assets
With the feeling Of unrest and the false
doctrines which il seems is the desire Of
some of our public men TO engendeT III
the minds Of the people We are LED 10
question the sincerity Of large portion OF
those in public life, and II should De our
aim TO so educate not only those IN our
calling. but all with whom we come IN
contact, that they may be able 10 thnk
for themselves and realize the need OF
legislation which will insure the much
reeded and best currency reform that can
be suggested by those who have mace
study of the needs OF the country III thaI
day life is devoted 10 the practical necessi,
ties Of this wonderful country OF ours still
in it's infancy.
During the past few weeks a request has
been made by the Committee on Banking
and Currency of the House OF Representa-,
lives of the national and state banks ana
trust companies of this and other states, 10
furnish certain information about their
business Many of our friends thought mat
compliance would be a departure from the
policy and practice of banks Tor many
years Of holding conildentlal an tra. ,ea.,
lions with their customers. In maintain
ing that principle banks may be subject
cd 10 hasty criticism or MISUNDERSTANDING
but il is believed that all thoughtful MEM
bers of the community Will approve our
course.
1t goes without saying in this audience
that the representatives OF our banks
should be deemed the best advisers In re-
spect to financial questions, and more par
ticularly so when political exigency may
afford opportunity to the advocates of false
theories to misrepresent the conservative
course 10 which bankers should adhere. II
would appear proper that the bankers Oh
This state here assembled express their
opinion as 10 our duty in guarding the
interests Of those for whom we act sub
stantially as trustees and as to the meth
Cd i'm which we may best render assistance
10 those who are conscientiously endeaVor-
tng 10 improve our monetary system.

DENIAL OF MONEY TRUST
w. H. Bennett Favors Aiding
Those Endeavoring to Improve
Monetary System, but Would
Guard Patrons interests.

Buffalo. June 13.--The urgent neces-
sity Of Congress providing q system Of
banking and currency that will prepare
the country to meet the next downward
swing Of the pendulum of trade was en-
phasized at the opening of the nineteenth
annual convention Of the New York
State Bankers Association here to-day.
In this connection Elliott c. McDougaL
chairman of the committee on city re-
form, sounded a warning in submitting
his report. He said:
We bankers arc not expecting panic.
We are, on the contrary, on the eve OF
period of prosperity. We are due to
have another bad period at the end OF
the prosperous times, however, and this
time il will be an industrial and not
bankers panic. Despite the good times
ahead, this is bound to come. The seeds
for II are being sown to-day
Walter H. Bennett, retiring president OF
the associa ton. and vice president of the
American Exchange National Bank. of New
York. in his annual address stated that the
bankers should express their opinion as TO
the method by which they might best render
assistance TO those ''conscientiously endeav-

those for whom the bankers act as trustees
George NJ REYNOLDS, president Of the

eliminate between the words power and
trust and denied any knowledge Of the
existence Of such trust"
Cornelius \. Pugsley. Of Peekskill, the
incoming president, while condemning the
Congress investigation as i'll advised, eX-
pressed the belief that it had the power
