The difference between them is just as great as between a bank of snow and a bank of deposit and discount that is to say, the similarity is in name alone and in nothing else.

On uie outer hano no one he ever tried to prove that a Trust Company Is illegal, on the contrary, during the past twenty years, it has been the aim of var ous state legislatures in this country to enlarge the powers of trust companies ina to strenguien tiienun wiwij waj A Trust Company would be mors cor rectly defined as a trustee company be cause that is precisely, what It is em powered also to do a general banking ana financial business.
