ury in the week ended las; night. which included
payments Of $29.134 for purchases of Pac!fc RAN
road bonds. the associated banks lost S-'''o-i.
The weekly bank statement published to-day
showed an average increase in cash of S2.iN>.0'o
There could bc no better proof Of the continued
concentration Of money At this point In spite
of moderate exports of gold the inflow OF money
from the country has caused further accumula-
ton Of idle capital. The particular changes Were
not large nor significant and in its details the
statement was remarkably consistent. The gain
in money. together with a small Increase IN
loans. resulted in an Increase in deposits Of
S42l470O In consequence of this change thr iuI-
ther increase in surplus reserve was only $l'4o'-
995. The banks hold in excess oi legal requlrr-
uonts SSS.417950 against Sl2l56.150 in the CORE
sponiinc week a year ago and $20.o5G.3OO at the
same time in the preceding year.
