2' ' CHARLOTTE DAILY OBSERVER, MARCH 8, 190a t AMtadle f tine ; ; Wpffidiiinioaa;. Bamikeirs m tin Receiniit Fame BY C. X. EVAXS. Th address -which follow waa de livers! at tt annual banquet of the Wilmington chamber, of com mere Tuesday evening last by Mr. Charles N. Evsn cashier of the Southern Na tional bank, of that city, on the sub ject: "The Attitude of the Wilming ton Banks In the Recent Panic" Mr. Toastmaster. Member and Guests: To this distinguished gath erlng of . business men, professional men, and politicians men who read, travel, aad touch elbows with the cur rent affairs of business, I could per haps best respond to my toast by re minding you of the recent press re- ports, appearing in heavy headline of - the great newspapers of tte country, announcing with pride and enthusiasm that this clearing house association, and that one. were calling In clearing touse certificates, script currency and the like, thus resuming cash payments wi ay I could best responu to my sub ject in simply calling these facts to your mind, and. In the same breath advise you that, while a stream of clearing house certificates were dally passing through the mall deposits re ceived by the Wilmington banks, not one of these certificates tore the good same of the Wilmington clearing bouse association, and none were orig inated by her banks. I ooulJ well compare, Mr. Toastmaster, the atti tude of the Wilmington bank in this eventful period, with that stronghold which grace the mouth of the Cape Fear. I believe It will be the privi lege and pleasure of this assembly to visit Fort Caswell to-morrow, and I rail upon you to witness, as you Inspect this magnificent fortress, that all guns are deaa and In position, are care fully kept, sufficiently manned, and that in the strong magaalnes the am munition supply is ample In other words, ttey are ready to do business! This was the conditio of our banks t when, about the first of November, I the financial storm which had been brewing for several months, broke In Its fury, and the strange condition was presented in which a dollar of United States currency was commanding In the New York markets a banking , value oftl.04. or, briefly 11,000. in cur- ,'reney was worth a premium of $40. on that and other central markets. In thl condition. Mr. Toastmaster, cur banks, too. were ready! Not that unusual preparation had been made, but more from practiced observance of the Biblfcel injunction: "Keep your lamps trimmed and burning." To truly represent to you the po sition of our banks, we will select the month of November a being the most critical period, when the financial storm winds were highest. On the first day of that month, there were tlve hundred and forthy-three smaller banking institutions, carrying reserve deposit and active balances with the national banks of this city, and de pending upon these national bank either wholly or In part for their life' circulation currency and ex change. The lotal deposits of our banks at thi Ume, Including the de posits of our excellent savings hanks, were over six millions of dollars; the total liabilities amounted to about nine millions. These figures will con vey some Idea of the responsibility which rested upon the banks and bankers of the city of Wilmington when this period came upon us. In our special relations with the smaller nana dealing with u. it Is one of our functions to furnish currency, In return for deposits made up of checks on various outside banking points In the United States, principally In the Bouth. When, therefore, I present with your permission, a few figures mowing me actual work performed In tha face of this currency famine, and under other etrsnuou conditions then existing in the financial marts, you wui, i mm sure, reel a great orM. in achievements of the Wllmlnirtnn while the situation was. a usual. carefully discussed in the usual meet ing of our clearing house association. It was never for a moment thought or considered to Issue certificates or in terrupL in any way, the usual func tion at our banks. Efforts were of course made to secure any available currency without premium, but it I safe to state that not so much a? 1100.000 was thus obtained by our bank for tha entire month, our de pendence being practically upon the usual deposit made at home and ship ped in by out-of-town customers, ss well, of course, as the usual ship ments of sew currency from tha re demption bureau in Washington. We had large mills, both In and out of town, dependent upon us for their pay rolls, and our banks took the position that It was altogether best for general condition that the laborer be paid .as I usual In actual cash, believing that anything else wouldl hav a harmful tendency. Tnts being the situation. It will Interest you to know that the books of our national bank will how that in the month of November cash pay roll were made up and paid over in a total sum of S731,00. These figures do not include, of course, the usual dally cash payment made at the different paying window of tne banks. It will further be seen, that by adding the pay roll to the cash shipment made other bank for that month, the Wilmington bank during November furnished In these two Items alone, the magnificent sum of Jl.3Hi.00O in actual cash, and without premium. A meat doe not alone constitute the human diet, cash, alone, doe not constitute the necessities and demand of our banking customer and de positing bank. We might state, by way of Illustration, that a bread Is to human diet, so 1 exchange to the suc cessful maintenance of a bank' busi ness. By exchange, I refer, as you know, to the demand draft issued by a bank on its correspondents In the principal clearing centres of the United States. So closely Is exchange related to the actual currency or cir culating medium, in It use, that one la Quite as necessary as the other, the use of exchange being much greater, really, than cash. Therefor when the currency famine began, Northern ex change rapidly assumed an abnormal premium, and commanded In the principal cities a premium ranging from 91.50 per 11.000. to W per 11,000. Wilmington bank were forced, in some instance to pay this premium, notwithstanding they continued to sell exchange at their counter at the usual clearing house regulation, 10 cents per check. The special relation the Wil mington banks hold with the smaller bank depositing with them, makes It necessary for our bank to furnish large amount of Northern exchange dally. Upon the other hand our banks usually can command large amount from balance created In other cities, where correspondents usually transfer or forward exchange for these balance at par. In this un usual time, however, some Of the cen tral cities refused to furnish New York exchange against credit with them, while other charge, a Just stated, 6 per 11.000 premium.

Mr. Toastmaster, it Is due the exrullent savings hanks of the city to state that In the heat of this panic, although annoyed at a foolish run upon their strongest member, and mus cummunjraiea, in a quiet way to alL which run was originated by me careless interpretation of the usual sign displayed In the windows of our oanKs before and after basking hours, alt claims and worthy demand were promptly met in the coin of the realm. When, at the most critical period, the doors of this excellent Institution were thronged with a class of uneducated and uninformed depositors, each was oulckly and politely treated with that most effective medicln for an uneasy depositor, the hard cash, and the dose was continuously administered, before and after hours. Naturally the result has proven of benefit to all our hanks and I point with pride to the fact that Ith the official returns ks in reporting to before this imuhl. iara tnat made rebrusry 14th. our banking resources showed a total gain !f about tm.Wi. while the art modern country of Asia 7.
