CAUTION.
Credits Are Handled With

Foreign Demand for Our Securities, and
Fall in Foreign Exchange stops Out
flow of GoId-Imports and Ex-
ports Both Very Light.

New YORK, June 19.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review:
The concerted action by the banks of New
York has changed the situation considerably.
More failures and the tremendous drain OF
money to the west had such an effect here
that the banks were unanimous in deciding
upon the issue of clearing house certificates.
Much increased accommodation for the busl-
ness community is expected to result, and
doubtless will, unless speculation is stimu-
lated to absorb all increase in available
resources through undue preference for
marketable securities over assets.
The weakness of banks at many western
points continues and Is having serious effect
upon the merchants and manufacturers who
are in no way concerned with speculative
operations.
The very sharp fall in foreign exchange
removes the chance of gold export at the
present. but it is due to foreign purchases
of securities.
Exports in the two weeks of June, it Is
true are but s., 100000, or 10 per cent. of last
years and imports show small decrease ID
the place of the enormous increase reported
for months, but the banks are still embar-
raised and likely to be for some time.
The decline in prices has led to some in
crease in foreign demand for products, but
has been followed by an advance OF more
than a cent in wheat, with sales OF only 2I,-
100000 bushels. 212 cents IN corn and three
sixteenths in cotton with sales OF 95O,UOO
bales.
Pork has fallen 80 cents, oats l, coffee u,
oil /, but any material increase In exports at
this season must come from marketing sur
plus of cotton and wheat carried over, and
this the advance in price tends to prevent.
Wheat receipts are still large and accounts
of growing crops are decidedly more IaVor-
able from the northwest, but conflicting as
to cotton.
The output of pig iron declined 1922 tons
weekly in May and is scarcely larger than
year ago.
The stocks on hand declined 1900 tons a
month. but further reduction of output is IN
progress. ::

The market for wool Is much depressed

tight money and slow collections.
In few southern cities like Charleston

the demand is smaller.
