Turner.
He said that on one day recently,
when money was at 20 per cent, he
lent for the account of the Ma
tional City bank $3.000,0O0 at
per cent. He described the general
method of making loans on the floor
of the exchange, and said that the
total daily loans on the exchange
would amount to more than $40.-
100000 of $50,0O0,000. He said,
however, that was merely an esti-
mate and that there were no sta
tistics available to show the total
daily loans on stock exchange Sc
curities.
Half a dozen members Of the
consolidated exchange. including
President Miguel de Aguero. told
the committee that under the rules
of the New York stock exchange
they were absolutely prohibited
from doing any business with MEM
bers of that organization and charg-
ed that their business had been cur
tailed by the prohibition.
The committee also heard several
money brokers, operating In the
loan crowd on the New York
stock exchange, who testified that
an enforced low rate of interest
would prevent the movement OF
money toward New York from
country banks when the money was
needed at home points.
