money rates displayed a temporary hard
ness during the last two days of the past
week, and this fact bears out the assump-
uon that banks were led to contract
their loans for the reason mentioned
otherwise the statement makes no show
ing OF significance. Interior remittances
continue in heavy volume, and the only
onset, that of repayment of loans by de-
posltory banks, Will soon be at an end

directly influencing New York money

noticeable. The probable continuance of
gold exports is more important feature
TO be considered. The decrease of S2l4 400
i'm national bank circulation for the week
appears to have been caused for the
most part by a withdrawal of $232 900 on
the part of the Hanover National. 1t is
noteworthy of remark that for the CORE

of the New York banks aggregated $507,-
925,500. or S33, 0000 900 in excess of the pres
ent volume, and yet rates to-day are
higher than at that period. The reserve
is about $l7O00,O00 lower. The averages

spending weeks in 1896 and 1894, are as

Chicago, June 13.-Tho wheat market to-
day was notable for the absence Of ner-
vQusness and irregularity which attend
ed the trading of the last previous two
days. Dealings were attended with more
of confidence and no sharp or erratic move
ments took place. The only business how
ever, which was a all worthy of comment
was the buying of July and the selling of
september by commission houses acting
for northwestern clients. The significance
attached thereto was that such action de-
noted belief in the eventual yield of a
good crop in that section. The session ia
ken as a whole was a typical Saturday
half-holiday one. The general tone was
easy and prices declined from the final
position established yesterday. July wheat
