Money in Bank

NEW YORK, JAN 25-The Financier says
this week: The statement OF the associated
banks of New York city for the week ending
January z5 is q repetition, so lar the general
showing of the several items is concerned OF
the previous weeks exhibit
The steady decrease of loans. were 1t mot Tor
the unusual conditions now prevailing, might
be regarded as one OF the most unfavorable
SYM ptoms which have been shown for months,
and the contraction in a measure has been
interpreted as disturbing factor. The liqui-
dation in the first five weeks has been in ex-
cess of $45, 600, coo and the total loans at the
end Of the current were $40 600, 600 less than
reported last September when the highest
mark ever recorded in the history Of New
York banks was reached. No doubt the banks
are moulding their business to meet the new
bond loan.
The decrease in the deposit item reflects the
Withdrawals OF legal tenders for export pur-
poses and the shifting caused by the contrac-
tinn in loans. With d total excess OF reserve
of $37, 900 900 there should be no difhculty in
abtorbing a considerable portion OF the new
bonds on the part of the New York banks, ii
such an investment is desired.
1t is worthy OF note that of the $40. loo, 900
in specie now in the New York banks six in.
stitutions hold $2l, l15 ,000 or AZ per cent Of
the tototal
The holdings of the National City bank,
nearly xt3,0O0,000, constitute over IL per
cent of all the specie in the sixty-six New YORK
clearing house banks.

Wholesale and Retail Prices, Corrected
Daily
SATURDAY, Jan. %.
Retail trade continues in fair volume,
with prices generally steady. Berries are
higher and green peas and string beans
lower on account of weather conditions.
The egg market is in worse demoralized
condition than has been the case for years.
Since the rains set in there has been a
steady decrease in price, until today the
bottom dropped out of the market alto
gether. Quotations are placed at 1Oc to
15c, but quotations in this case do not re-
fleet the condition of the market. Dealers
temporarily short paid &c for eggs ,yester-
day and then regretted it upon learning
that other dealers had actually refused
eggs offered at 1Oc. The market is enor-
lnously over-supplied, but whether on ac-
count of stock held by farmers or by reason
of a sudden streak of ambition on the part
of the hens can hardly be said.
