other commercial cities shows that Memphis
is not the only city having that report to

monetary situation; the syndicate are taking
government bonds far ahead of their obllga-
tions, and their rapid sale causes demand
for gold that sustains the present premium.
Money in our banks remains over plentiful
with only a moderate call for it at 8 per cent.
