WEEKLY BANK STATEMENT.

NEW YORK. May 16-The weekly
statement Of the Associated Banks shows
the following changes:
Reserve, decrease .............. 81 $50. 100
Loans. increase .............,... 2,4O1,TCO
Specie, increase ................. 6J3. 400
Legal tenders. decrease. ...... 1914. fOO
Deposits, increase .............. 2.9i7 500
Circulation. Increase ........... $1,000
The banks now hold SlS.577. 075 in ex-
cess OF legal requirements.
The New York Financier says this week:
The statement OF the Associated Banks
OF New York city for the week ending
May 10th reflects the causes which are
at present operating 20 diminish the eX-
cess reserve and incidentally 10 sustain
the money market on something like a
firm basis. The decrease Of the reserve
for the week was 81 60 100. making the
total surplus SlS, 577,975 As was pointed
out last week. the gold export operations
were not fully shown in the statement
Adding the two weeks reports 1t is seen
that while ten millions have gone abroad
the decrease In the reserve was only
S4,336.SO0. The banks have been called
upon during the same period for over
seven millions OF Government deposits
part Of the latter being still unpaid The
repayment OF the Government deposits
has not Yet been completed. and probably
a percentage Of that actually turned
over 10 the treasury does not show IN
the current statement but 1t will be noted
that the banks are engaged In a trans.
action that involves q los Of SiT 600 900
and over. counting the exports Of the last
two weeks. Against this is the movement
Of interior funds. which have not been
heavy enough 10 overcome the apparent
dlscrepfnc y between the $4,000 loss
actually reported. and the amount OK
pGlted and already TUNED over TO the
treasury. Unless there Is an increased
movement from the interior a contingency
Lot likely, in view OF present exchange
rites the statement should show a sim
further market decrease in the reserve
before balance Is adjusted. The out
look at present fayors "A firm money mar
ket. but whether the situation viii de-
velop rufficiently 10 cause diminuton
OF gold exports Is uncertain. Another
cali from the treasury vii end factor
that has been used TO strengthen the
money market. With the object OF making
such exports difficult.
Tho expansion OF s.. 40i. 700 in loans was
q favorable feature OF the statement
the increase In that item alone In the
last thirteen weeks having been nearly
$4,000. The banks lost In cash last week

NEW YORK DRY GOODS MARKET

NEW YORK, May l6.-There has been
a poor attendance Of buyers in the dry
goods market to-day, bupsiness on the
spot being left largely 10 the operations
of representatives of out-of-t town houses,
and these were d9spg little in any de-
partment. The mail order demand was
moderate. and the aggregate sales OF the
day reached but an Indifferent total. The
week closes with decidedly quiet tone
prevailing in both the cotton and woollen
goods divisions

RICHMOND AGAIN DEFEATED
PETERSBURG BIZ HEAYY BATTING.
Tho Visitors Put Up an Exceedingly
Ragged Fielding Gamc-Dilion Was In
the Box for Petersburg.

Manager Bradley sat In his private
box yesterday. and his face was lux
uriant hot-bed OF happy smiles. lie was
SO intensely happy that he could hardiy
speak. but at times he would give n
spasmodic gasp of pleasure ana MUIR
muir: They are coming my way now.
Than he cast his eve over the forty
hundred happy rooters who were enjoy
ing themselves 10 deere OF insanity,
and thought Of the well-hled grand
stand. the heavily pleaded bleacheries, ana
last. but not least, his thoughts turned
to the box-ofilce, and his happiness was
complete.
This changed order Of things was due
to the recent superior playing that the
Champions have been doing. AT last
It looks Ike the tide of fortune has
changed.
IN THIRD PLACE.
The League is one month old, ana
Richmond is tied for rhTd place. This
speaks well for the team, in view OF the
adverse circumstances against which they
have thus far had to contend.
The crowd yesterday was the largest Of
the season. and all on account OF the
Improvement IN the work OF the home
team. This should prove to the manage
ment that the public viii not patr9nize
a losing club. and that 1t Is to theft ad-
vantage to have frst-class team or
none at all.
The game yesterday was one-sided and
the Champions so far out-classed the eN-
champions that there was little interest
in the contest. Dillon, formerly OF Rich-
mond, pitched for the visitors. and SHOW
ed up fairly we'll until the eighth. when
he went IN riqoeg He was given mis-
cradle support.
Malarkey. while he was hit rather free
" by Petersburg, was, nevertheless, mas
ter Of the situation, and showed head
work when Il came TO the rub.
Richmond nelded well, and again won
by their heavy stick-work:
