T. MONETARY AFFAIRS.
There are prospects Of putting very
early end TO the pooling arrangement for
greenbacks. Many old and prudently
managed banks are restive under the
arrangement and desire the liberty OF ar
ranging their own greenbacks, as well as
national bank notes, and to receive and pay
them out across their counters. Their re-.
ceipts cannot be made as free as before
the suspension so long as there Is dis
count on bank checks in Wall street, and
they,insist on the resumption ot greenbacks
or national notes across their own coun-
tiers. No day has yet been named for the
meeting oil the clearing house banks to
relax the existing arrangement, but 1t
will probably not be later then Saturday
or Monday next.

chants Bank, says he will not be sur
prised II within two or three days the
banks give up pooling and pay green
backs over their counters as formerly.
He states that the banks have gained half
q million greenbaclts within the last three
