The steady and continuous decline in the legal
tender reserve of the city banks is creating some
solicitude among that class who do not consider the
specie held by the banks available, although
"lecap' reserve The theory is that nearly all the
specie held is in the shape Of special deposits and is
so regarded by the banks to the extent that 1t could
not be made available to pay currency deposits.
Ii is also imagined that a portion Of the sum re-
ported is IN reality collateral for currency loans.
but IN order to be counted as part OF the legal
reserve it must also appear ~ Il deposit.
Hence, taking the bank statement OF aver
ages for this week and deductmg from the
amount of deposits, O4,850,S0O, the sum Of
specie or special deposits, Scoops 400. leaves as
currency deposits the sum of $1s1 ,927,4o0 against
which the legaltender reserve Of 637390O is but
1890 per cent Moreover, these legal tenders are
very unequally distributed among the several
banks. as is shown by the detailed statement from
which the following tables are compiled Ten
banks hold over % per cent legal tenders against
currency dPDoSits rs follows
