New York Mining Shares.
NEW YORK BANK STATEMENT.
Increase in Specie and Legal Tender
Of Over $1,3OO,OOO.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-THE weekly bank
statement shows the following changes: Re
serve. increase, Sl,4OS,42 loans, decrease;
$7,372, SEQ; specie, increase, $2,$9lyOo; legal
tenders increase. S4.925, 400; deposits, de-
crease, $346, 100; circulation, increase, SEQ.
The banks now hold $27 ,lS310O in excess OF
the requirements of the % per cent rule.
The New York Financier says this week:
1.-The statement of the New York clearing
house banks for the week ending Jan. II is
logical reflection Of the present trend of events
brought about by reason of the call for pop
ular loan, although as an exhibit of the weeks
business it is not so satisfactory. The prin-
cipal feature, considering the circumstances,
is an increase of S., 403 1926 in the reserve.
In view of the fact that the New York banks
may be drawn upon heavily within the next
thirty days by interior institutions. this in
crease becomes a matter of some Importance.
1t is plain to be seen why large bids for the
new bonds have not been reported alreadry
by the New York banks. If interior banks
draw upon their balances the average New
York institution will have no money to buy
bonds. unless it calls in its loans. and that is
an arrangement that would not be profitable.
For the reason that the banks cannot know
definitely for some time how they will stand
in this respect there is little probability that
individual bids for bonds will be made by
New York bankers before Feb or s. OF
course, a portion of the new bonds will find
their way into banks here, but whether
through syndicate or by direct bid cannot be
foretold."
The Evening Post says: 1.-THE bank state
put out in New York city. This is certainly
not surprising in view of the thoroughly alb
normal situation. The most important fact
disclosed by the returns, however, is an in
crease in specie and legal tender holdings
for the week of 81 ZIG, 900. The gain goes far
to adjust to known conditions the very def
cient showing of the gains in cash last week
reflected in Saturdays bank statement
The increase reported in the two bank state
ments of last Saturday and today is IS, 7SS, 300
1t is very probable that the difference be-
tween these sums, or part of it, is attribu-
table to legal tenders taken out to withdraw
gold from the treasury. On the whole. to-
days bank statement must be considered
Notwithstanding so when contrasted with
last weeks showing. The stock market, so
far as it reflected any judgment did not seem
to look favorably OF; the statement. At all
events prices held firm on languid trading
until the bank figures appeared, and then de-
clined Immediately for all important stocks
to the opening or lower. This was perhaps
a partial result Of the differences drawn from
the heavy loan contraction. London did lit
tie in this market, and that was chiefly
selling; its operations gave no clue to the
probable course of prices at the settlement

LOWEST FIGURES AT THE CLOSE,

CHICAGO, Jan. 1.-THE large Northwest
receipts were the feature in the wheat market
today. With vigorous bear selling it knocked
HH2sc off yesterdays closing. Corn closed
&c lower, and oats PC lower. Pork lost ~
Q7lzc and ribs 21zM5c from last night.
Wheat opened rather stronger than it
closed yesterday. due to the small shipments
this week from Argentine, and to an advance
Of I'D in American wheat in Liverpool in the
face Of the decline of the day before. But
the deliveries in the Northwest were large
5S4 cars, against 1893 cars the same day last
Week-and the exports for the week from both
coasts were about 100000 blu less than the
week before. There seemed to be a growing
suspicion that the war news had been over
worked, and buyers were cautious about max
Ing Investments. Some of the big operators
disposed to raid the market, and the
price gradually yielded. The local receipts
were larger than expected, and there is lib
eral estimate for Monday. Judge Tuley's de-
cision in favor of the contention of the ele-
vator proprietors, that the warehouse COM
missoners had exceeded their powers in can
ceiling licenses Of the elevators, was said to
have had some influence in producing the
heavy feeling in the market which prevailed
after the first few minutes of the session.
. May started at from 59B to 59%c, sold mo-
mentarily at 60c and then gradually down to
j9HM59%c near the close, and the latest trad
ing was at $3.50.
Corn opened firm, in sympathy with the
strength of wheat at the same time, but
turned down again when wheat did, and the
lowest quotations were being made as the
trading was drawing to end. May opened
at 2S7sc, sold for an instant at Lice over that,
and from 2S7sG29c it gradually sank to 2S12W
2S$4c as the closing rate.
oats tended downward in sympathy with
wheat and corn. May sold from 19AQ19Bc to
l9&C, closing at 1890.
Provisions inclined to seek a lower level
after rather firm start. At the close May
pork was l21Ac lower than it opened at and
7;2c lower than it closed on the day before.

STOCKS FEEL CHEERFUL.
Tone Much Improved Since the First
of the Week.


NEW YORK, Ian. 1.-THE stock snecula-
ton today was duh and without special feat
ure. The market opened at slight conces-
sions in prices but soon rallied above yester-
days closing figures. Tobacco was marked
up Us per cent, and Sugar rose IA over the
initial. Towards the expiration of the first
hour heaviness developed into Leather pre-
ferred, causing recession of 15s per cent
The general list also sagged, but the losses
were confined to fractions except for To-
bacco, which lost l per cent. Speculation
left off heavy in tone. The net changes in
prices were unimportant in most instances
Dealings were inaugurated in Reading stock
first assessment paid, and some strength was
developed therein. The week Just closed has
been an eventful one, in view of the an
noupced intentions Of the administration on
the question of the government loan The
formal announcement early Monday morning
OF call for public subscriptions created some
thing of a sensation, and considerable adj
verse criticism. A much more cheerful tone
now prevails, however, as it is generally as
sumed that, either with or without the syndi-
cate. the loan will be successful. 1t is init
mated also that, in the event of threatened
Gus developments in the money market. a
large block of the bonds would be immediately
disposed of for gold, and the public sub
sCrptions would be allowed to go on. It is
denied by members that there is any pros
pect of dissolution of the syndicate
During the last half of the week better
were made for London account with St Paul
the favorite, and many stocks recovered to
the best figures of the week with the shorts
heavy purchasers. The weeks sales aggre-
gated 1,117772 shares. The total sales TODAY
were 76039 shares, including: American
Sugar, $1,000; American Tobacco 800; Bur
lington. 1900; Chicago Cas- 400; Louisville
e Nashville, 1900; Rock Island, 300; St,
Paul. 1880; United States Leather preferred,
S,400
Today's bond market was irregular and
fairly active, with the changes narrow. The
total dealings were $7S9. coo. The course of
the market for the week was in sympathy
with the movement in stocks. Government
bonds were quiet, but generally firm. The
market eased off on the announcement of the
new loan, but subsequently stiffened smartIy.
