THE FINANCIAL OUTLOOK.
An Easier Feeling Prevails
Among New York Banks.
OUTSIDE DEMANDS LIGHT.
Clearing House Certificates Now Out
standing Are S21, $4,000.
The sub-Treasury Rapidly Paying the In
terest Due on Bonds-one Holder
Presents Coupons Dated Back
Eleven Years and Quarter.

New York, July 3.-The Fourth of
July was evidently begun by many busI-
ness men on Saturday aud no business
was transacted down town today except
that which could not be avoided. But,
although there was little doing on the
stock exchange and many business offices
were closed, the banks were all very
busy. The situation was reported to be
very easy this morning. Demands from
the country it is said, was very light and
many of the large centers, notably
Chicago, were beginning to pay back
money they borrowed from New YORK.
The sub treasury was very active today.
Besides receiving 500, 900 in gold it paid
out $3.50, 900 by midday on small notes
in exchange for gold and greenbacks.
The transfer of 500, 600 to San Francisco
is explained as being due to the action or
the savings banks there. They demanded
. sixty days. notice from depositors and
then sent on securities to Eugene Kelly d
Co. for sale, in readiness for the demand
upon them, if it should be ma .e at the
expiration ofthe notice. Today's transfers
are said to be on account OF some securl-
ties sold.
The clearing house loan committee this
morning authorized an additional issue
OF s., SIS, 600 in certificates, making the
total amount now outstanding 81 ,615, GOO.
From this increasing issue of certificates
1t is believed generally that it will be
some three months before call money can
be obtained as low as per cent. In con-
nection with the large issue OF these GER
tificates last week, it became generally
known today that but for the prompt
action of some of the leading members OF
the clearing house committee there would
have been a default in interest by one
well known railway company on Satur-
dav. One of the best known railroad
millionaires in the country was caught
in the squeeze for ready money at the last
moment, and knowing this condition,
and being assured that unless there was
relief Tor it there might come an actual
panic, three of the strongest members OF
the clearing house association, through
the medium of certificates, provided the
necessary assistance.
The sub treasury was again a creditor
at the clearing house today, the balance
in its favor being 81 ,491, 416. 1t was also
a creditor Saturday for the first time since
August II, 1891. The total payments O.
interest due July on United States bonds
amounted to "a, 391, $3.50. Payment:
usually continued month or more, bu
the stringency in the money marke
made application unusually prompt
Many bond holders who have not takeI
up the amounts due on coupons for sew
erai payments back have drawn all tina
was due them up to date. Some pay.
ments are as much as i've years behind
and one bond holder presented coupons
dating back for eleven years and /;
quarter.

whether They Win Be Resumed Will Be
Determined Wednesday.
WASHINGTON, July 9.-Secretary Car
Isle has decided not to resume the
purchase of silver today and has so noti-
fed the principal firms that offer silver to
the treasury on purchasing days. This
action is unusual, but as the matter of
purchasing silver on given days is discre-
tionary with the secretary of the treas
ury, he is simply exercising his right.
The reason assigned in the notice sent
them is that the officers of the treasury
department. have not yet completed their
annual settlements for the fiscal year at
the United States mint. Whether sill
yer purchases will be resumed Wednes-
day is left open and will not be deter
mined until Wednesday comes and cir
cumstances will then decide the matter.
The price paid for silver when the treas
ury completed its June purchases was
$500 per ounce. Since that it has de-
cllned to S0.62 per ounce and is quoted to
day at so. 73S. 10 per ounce.
