The New York Financier says: For the

ever, reflect the full effect OF the heaVy
operations incident to the imports OF over
the banks at the close of business Satur-
day held more cash than the statement
credits them with is almost certain, but
as is usually the case the gain VIII be slow
lieving the strained situation of the past
few weeks is plainly apparent Instead OF
the heavy contraction of several miIlonS
in loans. which has marked the statement
for weeks past the decrease last week
was light. Deposits still seven millions
less than loans. but this Is a feature that
probably will not be maintained for any
length of time. The heavy for
the South by the Conditions now
prevailing there and in other
sections by favorable rates. are bound 10
continue the gold imports, and thus enable
interior with greater ease than would have
been the case had crops been SLOW in NOV
ing. 1t will be a sign of greater activity
over the country. thel efore, If the reserves
of the New York banks are slow in in
creasing this fan. The banks are still en-
i8rging their circulation.

New YORK. March 2S.-The New York
Financier says this week: The statement
of the associated banks of New York city
for the week ending March 2Sth is in
marked contrast with those made since the
award of the government bonds, the loan
item decreasing for the first time IN sew
eral weeks. Loans, however. are still nearly
O,O0O, 900 in excess of the low record
of February Sth last. It is somewhat diff
cult to trace the cause of the falling off
last week, except on the theory that stock
exchange business was very dull and that
some of the banks whose reserves have
fallen too low are calling in their loans.
When it is stated that twelve banks hold
$50 100000 of the cash reported by the
Philadelphia clearing house and half the
former number hold two-thirds of the sur
plus reserve, some idea of the distribution
of cash may be obtained. 1t is this fact
that has forced a number of banks out of
the loan market almost entirely. The
banks are still losing cash. according to
the report.
The statement reflects, perhaps, the pay
ments made last week into the sub.treas.
ury by the government depository banks.
This, it lie said. has been continued during
the week. 1t was stated last week that q
call might be expected from the treasury
for second payment by the depository
banks into the sub-treasury, but the week
closed without this incident.
The movement of money Is now toward
New York and everything seems to favor
an early resumption of gold exports. II is
doubtful, however, whether the treasury
rates to point where these exports might
be prevented, even II only temporarily.
The money market H., in a way, more
normal than for a long time past, and the
exports of gold will not attract as much
attention az they did last winter.

CHICAGO, March 2S.-Wheat did not
follow its recently established rule at the
opening. 1t started for May substantially
&c higher than it closed yesterday and
made a further &c advance in the next
few minutes. The ruling influence at the
time was the heavy sales of red winter
wheat made yesterday and OH the day be-
fore to country millers. The opening
price for May was 63T. 1t sold at $685.,
Immediately dropped back to 63h@63H,
and then rose quickly to 63T@635s and
closed at 63B. The sales of red winter
wheat today were. however, heavier than
they were yesterday. A round lot of
100000 bushels was shipped, taken
to 60 by lake to Toledo, and 100000
bushels more to go out by rail in various
directions. That caused fresh alarm
among the shorts and sent them to cover
ing. Under that style of buying the price
of May rose to 64@641s and the latest
trading was at 637sM61. The brisk de-
mand from country millers for the red
winter wheat in store was the entire cause
of the bullishness. Outside markets gave
but meagre response. If it was possible
for corn to be duller than on the previous
days of the week, it was so today. Oats
throughout were quiet and prices a shade
higher at the close than they were yester.

way of exchanges. Trade in provisions
was light and the tendency rather down.
