The Treasury is short on its 100000 in gold
reserve s952SOl9, or it was 80 on Thursday nlght
last the conditions Of which day are reflected IN
this statement.
BANK CONDITIONS COMPARED.
p, the operations OF the Sub-Treasury in this
city during the week ending Friday nlght the
associated banks gained s2.294,7S4. The weekly
bank statement showed decrease in loans of
s2ol 700 an increase in legal-tenders of $5Oo0loO
and an increase in specie of s1250SOO the increase
OF total reserve being $6.33O.soO. Inc increase
IN legals results partly from heavy payments oy
the Sub Treasury. but about $2,OoO.oOo must nave
come from the interior. This interior movement
also accounts in part for the increase in specie
which represents silver certificates rather than
gold probably because il is known that country
banks have sent many such certificates hlther,
han
count them as specie in their reports The item.
doubtless also includes some Assay once cnecks
representing gold bullion receipts from the Mest.
II these differences as TO the increase In silver
certificates are correct. the amount OF silver re-
ceived through the customs should now grow
larger although It has been hoPed 'n ,aru onp
in gold. Banks appear TO be increasing their
circulation slowly. The statement can hardy
he called favorable to the financial interests or
the city since there is already too much money
to lend in New-York. The result OF all the
changes during the week was an increase IN tis i
surplus reserve Of A422OO ana the banks HeIu
