The weekly bank statement of averages which
was published yesterday only in part reflects the
money movements of Tho week. During the week
covered BY the statement the Sub-Treasury gained
$3,4OL137 coin and S1,0OO00O gold was
shipped by Tuesdays steamers. These losses
of specie by tho banks, amounting to
$l4Ol0OO were so distributed that in the
statement they would count only about So, 100000
loss in specie. The statement calls for loss of
P3, 80 800 specie which leaves 81, 10000 as the
probable amount that the actual total of specie held
the close of business Friday, February 10, was
short of the amount reported in the statement Of
that week. and also shows that the total specie re-
ported By yesterdays statement IS about
81 100000 greater than the actual sum
held at the close of business last Friday loss of
Sl19,5O0 legal tenders also is reported while the
net gain of currency by the Sub-TIcasury only
$70,SS9 for the week. The deposits again re-
ported decreased by a greater sum Cf1, ,30J, 100 |
than tho decline which the other changes call for
discrepancy which is in the same di |
recton as those shown by the two pre-
ceding statements, and ia, therefore, pretty |
conclusive evidence Of large rcmttances to the in
terror. BY the statement the surplus reserve is |
shown to be reduced S3,97S,950, and still to be |
81 ,072, ,225, but there IS httlo doubt that the |
actual condition of the aggregate is below
the rule of - per cent.
The following are the comparative totals of the |
statements of February / and February 1s:
