STRONG STATEMENT
The bank statement is remarkably
strong. The large increase in loans arises
chiefly from the heavy amounts of gold n.y.
pothecated with the banks. The enormous
increase in deposits results from increase
in loans and gain in specie and legal-tend-
ers. The increase of the latter is due main
ly to the return of currency from the in
terror. The gain in specie represents the
excess Of coin derived from Treasury sales
and interest payments over payments for
customs. The surplus over legal reserve
has increased two and half millions, and
the banks now hold thirty millions above
the legal requirements. Loans $3.50, IO1, =
106; increase, S5,625, 653. Specie, S37,-
