rium. In tho unavoidable absence of
Nathan Straus, of New York, the presi
dent of tho association. Edward P. Gol-
tra, of St. Louis vice president, presided.
Mr. Straus* address was read by Repre-
rentatlve Joseph L. Rhlnock. of Ken
tucky. In it Mr. Straus said:
“I feel sure that Mr. Bryan will be
elected and I say, as a business man,
one who Is &a much Interested perhaps
as any In the general prosperity of the
country, as one who la bound to feel
personally any lack of prosperity among
the masses, that I believe hla election will
be a benefit to all the country and to all
of the people.
"Mr. Bryan will make a safe, reliable,
conscientious president. He will repre
sent the American people, not any class
and for that reason I shall work for him
until election and voto for him on elec
tion day.**
Mr. Bryan was greeted with applause.
Tho democratic candidate addressed him
self particularly to the Issues which af
fect business men si a class. He pre
faced his remarks by saying:
"If I thought that a democratic victory
would be injurious to the business Inter
ests of this country I would not think
of asking you to serve on this business
men's committee. I would not think of
asking a laboring matt to take part In a
campaign for the election Of the demo
cratic ticket If I thought that a demo
cratic victory would be Injurious to the
laboring Interests of the country. .
"I would not ask a farmer to Interest
to the agricultural interests, and I would
not ask a business man to support the
democratic ticket if I thought a demo
cratic ticket would tend to impair legiti
mate business In this country. I believe
that democratic victory Is absolutely
prosperous."
'•Republicans,*’ he asserted, "threatened
a panic If there should be a democratic
victory this year; they should." he said,
"give bond to keep their promise that
there Would be prosperity if the repub
licans were successful. President Roose
velt. with Mr. Taft as the most con
spicuous member of his cabinet, had
been unable to avert the .present panic."

DUN'S REPORT OP BANK CLEARIN05 FOR SEPTEMBER. _
Bank clearings denote a slightly larger volume of payments through tha banka, incident
be the opening of the fall season and tha movement of the crops, particularly in the Weal,
but the amount is still helow normal. Total bank exchanges In the United State* far Sep
tember, embracing reports of more than «ns hundred of the leedtng cities, as shown In the
monthly statement issued by R. Q. Do* A Co., are $11,093,256,738, an increase of 8.© per
cent compared with a year ago, bat a decrease of 1L4 per oent compared with September,
1906.’ The comparison with a year ago is not entirely saUrfnctory, os conditions la the lead
ing markets then caused some curtailment of bank clearings, though the dtesllsn became
much more acute in October. The increase this year over a year ago I* atmoet wholly at
New York City, and is due chiefly to the larger relume of stock market trading this year.
At oitlee outside of New York there is « small decrease, due mainly to the lees reported at
leading Iron centers, notably at Pittsburg, at many of the elites in tka South and at Fields
coast points. At New England there Is only a small loss, and in the eessyaihun with
September, 1906, when trade was very active, many cities report an In ass ass. Some Im
provement is noted at the Central West and In the Far West, and the lose la quite small at a
number of the leading cities, notably at Chicago, Milwaukee and Indianapolis, while ethers
report an Increase, among them St. Louis, Kansas City and St PauL September eteerings
exceed any preoedlng month this year. Tho gain over the earlier months is partly daa
to the greater activity in stocks at New York City and the higher security vatuee; one
more business day In the mouth this year also helps the monthly statement. Comparison la
made below of bank exchanges by sections covering three years; also tha average daily
figures each month for the year to date:
