weekly bank statement published yesterday showed
q gain in cash Of 81 AGA 400 The increase III legal
tenders was 81 900. but the loss in specie was
,S944. 800 II is a natural inference from 'he
statement, in connection with the known hoNe-
ments of money, that the return OF currency lroh
the interior considerably surpassed the OUTFLOW OI
gold to Europe. The large decrease in loans can
moi reasonably be explained except the theory
that some large and probably speculative loans
have been Iquidated. The activity in stocks and
the higher prices indicated increase in loans,
l1vbile The mercantile business suffered no I'M
nortant change The difference in the item of de-
nosits. which were larger by $964,7OO than the
other changes required, was probably parual
correction of the discrepancy week ago. Inc
final result was a gain of $2,655,2'3 II the sur
