SATURDAY EVENING, May 16
Business At the banks to-day displayed q
Saturday activity, which was, on the whole, nos
qute equal to the usual briskness OF tho last day
| of the week. The diminution OF operations may
fairly be ascribed In part to the bad weather OF
the last two days, though underneath this ten-
pornry cause lie the more permanent ones to
which re have 50 often called attention
I! The demand for money was Light. ThenominA
rate Of discount is 10 per cent. ono quotation
cannot be given to cover the rate OF discount IN
! I'll tho banks. We hsvc 90 Bank Of England to
establish the rate, and there is often on tho same
day variance ot or per cont III the rates
at which frst-class loans are negotiated IN DIFF
ferent quarters Of the city. Banks With large
limo Of country deposits and corresponding eur
plus are glad to loan money at per cont. other
banks never devlate from 10 per cent.
Now York exchange between banks was firm
to-day at 50 cents premium per 81, GOO.
Foreign exchange is reported BY skoT-Peter-
son, 1sberE tb Co. as follows: London. 1853 to
49115; Paris, 51aa@ to $40; Hamburg, o6 to 81;
Berlin, u to 727l Belgium, 515ts7 to 6l11a
Holland. Al to 4135; Sweden, %; Norway, HIS;
Denmark, Sc; Fiuland (Russla), 2o%: o
Cable transfers are: London, 43224 Paris,
5O71z.
One Of tho signs of the times is the reiterated
determination Of numbers Of National Banks TO
withdraw from National banking and 90 into
business under State laws. No lesa than tiTe
cases Of this kind in the interior oI thls state
nnd Indiana were reported to-day. Taxhtion On
their capital is SO large, and the profit on their
circulation is go intinitesma! that there i ls no
good reason why they shoald remain under
