TROUBLE IN A SMALL BANK.
Continued from First Page.

We have always been able to supply the New
York Central with all these different bills and
fractional currency.
Il consulted with George g. Williams, the presi-
dent Of the bank, before granting the requistion Of
Nlr. Rossitcr, and We both cam" to the conclusion
that in view of the stringency of the money mar
ket il was not feir 10 ourselves 10 pay out so
much currency. and | sent a note to Mr. Ros-
sitter 10 that effect We did, however, provide
him with about 100000 in currency, which will
60 long way toward helping him out.
The cause of this scarcity of currency il just
this. On an average there are only S?2 OF S?3
Of currency 10 every man, woman and chilli in the
COUNTRY There being 6j,OOO,000 people IN the
country this makes something like 81 ,i30, 100000
Of currency. The present panicky feeling that
has spread over the country, especially in the
West. during the last few weeks has made the
people a little uneasy The result is that instead
of leaving their money i'll the banks they have
been carving it around in their pockets. Just
thnt Of it "A moment. Suppose everybody in the
United States smply Withdrew $40 from the
hanks That alone would reduce the currency
10 nearly one-halr of its normal amount.
Most Of this withdrawing of money from the
hanks has occurred in the West In the East there
ha, Deem comparatively little of il. but N"w-> ork
has been sending immense sums of money to the
West and South to help the banks ont there" and
this has at last made the stringency in the money
market felt in tins city. II il only natural re-
suIt w, c,unot be sending mon"f ont con
tinunIly to the West ami South and getting
little in return without feeling the effects Of IT
in the long rum oo
"Our hank ordinarily has about SS.000.00O OF
gold in H. vaults and about S2O0O,000 in cur
rrncy The drain Of the last few weeks, how
ever. has reduced this that just now we have
only 81 5000 in gold and only $500 900 IN eur
reouisition of the Nrw-York Central peopl" we
should not have had very much left for our Other
purposes A. il we supplied them WIN
sometime like 100000 in currency. and thai
has reduced our currency 10 about S600,00O. whcl
is ouitc sufficient for our present needs.
