TIE New York Financier says this week:
The statement az averages OF the assoc

alton Of the liquidation on loans, when

loans since September IA has been no less
than 80 0ss9.0o0 The loan item for the
week ending December is only ss.ssi,eD
IN excess Of the lowest point recorded
during the present year. or on April last.
Deposits. however on that date were only
5000 90. against SCI 90. 90 for the week
just ended. If the gold exports Of Satur-
day had been figured IN the statement, de-
posts would have shown a decrease. but
the heavy movement from the interior Is
clearly shown in the gain Of Siss9,5o IN
cash by the banks. This expansion prom
fses 20 continue for some time 10 come, IL
the domestic exchange figures are cri-
feriou. or the cash increase il might be
noted that s.. go 40 OF the total amount
was in specie. the total now held by the

The story seems TO end at this point; but very
