swiftly revolving arms and intermediate
gears, the upper half is made to revolve
slowly, carrying the hose nozzle. from

far out beyond the sprinkle of the arms,
thereby covering much larger space than

With an ordinary pressure of water, ~
pounds or upwards, it will thoroughly

set perpendicular to send the water up

of the nozzle tip, discharging instead of a
solid straight stream very fine mist at
the center of the sprinkle of the revolving

gold exports of one week ago, which were
not included in the previous statement.
Che few hundred thousand dollars with
drawn several days ago for export was also
included In the statement for the current
week. The banks therefore have lost
seven days, and against this the interior
movement was the only counteracting fea-
lures. The decrease in cash reported for
the past week is an Indication of the extent
into banks having made up large portion
OF the. outgo. The decrease In the idle re-
serve In vaults is very moderate in view of
the heavy change Of the past week. The
expansion In loans in the week were slight.
but the demand for money in view of larger

The greater part of the enormous volume
of money that flowed into New York last
year at this time helped to maintain a
heaVy excess reserve and kept money rates
at a low ebb. desnite the fact that the loans
item exceeded all previous records. This
year the money flowing to bond operations
is going into the treasury. and as gold eX-
ports are not artificially stopped a large
part has been released for export pur-
poses.
