WHERE THE MONEYS At.

The New York correspondent OF
the St. Louis Globe-D emoersl teae-
graphed that paper . review q the
New York bank statenests last
Saturday - follows:
To-day's bank statement shows .
further increase in the supply Of
idle money Of nearly 5000. 900.
while the loans have been increased
$6OO, 900. The banks now hold
nearly $5s, 000, 900 Of lawful money
above legal tender requirements,
their total reserve being $l7l .000.'
600. Their deposits, which . short
time ago was less than their loans,
are now nearly $4,000. 600 in ex-
cess. This amounts virtually r.
congestion, and precedent will
count for noting il some Of Thu
money does not soon begin to seeh

ed an excellent demand for the very
best class Of investment issues.
