Convention Probable.

1t is reasonably safe to predict that
the American Bank ers' Association
will be invited to hold it's annual ses-
sion in 1920 in this city. The con-
vention is one of the most important
annual gatherings in the United
States, usually drawing more than
5000 people of the very highest grade
of citizenship: people with ample
means bent on business first. but not
averse to social intercourse and sane
pleasure.

president of the District Bankers As
sociation. from a vacation. he will call
a meeting of the association and give
the result Of a canvass of the situation
made by himself and r. N. Harper,

tended to the A. B. A. to visit Wash
ington in 1920.
Washington has not entertained the
A. B. A. since 1905. at which time the
local fnanciers did the proper thing
in the way of entertainment. It Is
understood that the officials Of many
of the larger banks are enthusiastic

CONVENTION HERE LIKELY
BY I. A. FLEMING.

Call money in New York rose to 90
per cent last evening-that is, on in
dustrial stocks as security - while
mixed collateral loans were made at
much lower rates.
The great speculation of the last
six months has been in the industrial
list, and for that reason the advance
has been most marked in these Sc
curities, while the rails have only oc-
caSionally shown temporary spurtS of
trading activity.
Money was called more or less
freely yesterday. in preparation for
some large loans that are to be made
within a few days. while the per-
sistent requests of brokers for larger
margins is forcing some liquidation
OF stocks to the further relief of con-
detionS.
Rationing of loans among brokers
with a clearing house and exchange
committee doing the apportioning.
Some of the interior banks that
have been taking advantage of the
high rates for call money are draw
ing down their funds for use in crop
movement and to meet the demand OF
home borrowers, while the well di-
rected efforts of bankers to reduce
brokers' loans is having it's effect.
Stocks have suffered under liquida-
ton and the prevailing sentiment Is
for further reductions.
The New York and all other eastern
exchanges will be closed tomorrow.
Money worked down again after the
opening this morning to and Z per
