ON CHANGE
What Was Done Yesterday on Wall
Street

NEW YORK, Nov. N.-The stock mark
ct awoke from its lethargy today and did
lively business In the second hour of
Saturdays short session. The volume of
dealings and the general movement of
prices were greater than have been seen
In several weeks past.
The temperance on the board room
floor of one of the principal operators
during the summer rise in prices and the
distribution Of large orders for his ac-
count were undoubtedly the principal
causes Of the rise. The resistance of the
market during the week to pressure and
the gradual hardening of prices In spite
of the dullness had laid the foundation
for an advance in prices under any con-
fident leadership
The strength manifestly alarmed the
shorts and they hastened to cover, thus
helping along the rise. 1t was noticeable
that the strength of the market was
transferred from specialties and indus
trials to which they have been largely
confined of late, to the standard gauge
shares. The gains of about a point or
over were registered in the grangers
shares, the coalers and in a number of
trunk lines. The southern lines Jagged in
a rather conspicuous manner, notwith-
standing the strong statement of the
Atchison company for October, showing
an increase In net earnings of $135, ,799.
No small part of the strength in the rail-
way list was due to the anticipation that
the supreme court, upon reassembling
on Monday after its autumn recess, will
hand down a decision in the Nebraska
maximum freight rate case favorable to
the railroads.
Sugar was strong and easily led the
gains with an advance of 5-8 on reports
that a decision from the treasury depart
ment would soon be forthcoming apply
ing the countervailing duty clause to
Dutch refined sugars.
The bank statement was about what
was expected. Although there was an
actual increase In cash reserve of $3, 33s.-
70O the legal reserve was raised by more
than that amount owing TO the tremend-

800; legal tenders, increase, 81, ,S3S, 200; de-
posits, increase, 6,744, l0O; circulation, in
crease. $l9l COO.
| The banks now hold $22, $50 1926 in excess
OF the requirements Of the rs per cent rule.
The Financier says: The changes in the
totals shown by the bank statement for the
week ending November 9th are connected
entirely with the transfer of Union Pa
cific funds to the several depository banks
and do not in the least reflect the ad-
Vanced business conditions which are gen.
orally associated with heavy loan orders
of silverincreases. The statement does not
balance, but the one item which affords
a clue to the real position of the differ
ent institutions is found in the gain of
cash during the week. This is larger than
reports to some Of the leading banks had
indicated. but the flow of money to this
center from the interior during the week,
it Is known, has exceeded the outward
movement by at least $2,0O0C00. The in
crease in deposits is, of course, accounted
for by the check given by the Union Pa
ctfic reorganization committee to the Ma
tional City bank and by it's distribution
pro rata among the different depository
Institutions. Adding the actual gain in
cash from the interior to the Union Pa
cific fund, and the deposit was approxi-
mately correct. The individual increases,
however, are interesting. The deposits
VI CIle DdILh nave DeeU SWelleu no less IMAM
$12, 00O, 900 through the operations described
above, and the increase of our institutions
amounts to $17,000,000 which is larger than
the total expansion reported by all the
banks. The gain of over 81, 600, 900 reported
by the Western National is due evidently to
the absorption of the business of the United
States National, which it has purchased.
The result of the weeks business has been
to swell the deposit item of the statement
to figures never before approached. The
present deposits are $1,000, 900 in excess Of
the highest total achieved on September
11th last. The great expansion in loans is
a feature of the statement that cannot be
satisfactorily accounted for. 1t runs al
most coincidentally with deposits, and the
Institutions making the largest gains in
that item also reported the highest gains
in loans. In other words, the statement
makes 1t appear that profitable use has
been found within three days for nearly
all the money received from the Union Pa
cfc company. The known condition of
the markets do not warrant this assump-
tion. AS the reorganization committee was
supposed to have secured all the money it
needed for Its uses before a settlement was
made. the cause must be looked for in other
directions. During the last several sales
Of bonds by the government banks receiv-
ing bonds have sometimes carried them
temporarily as loans, but this does not ap-
ply in the present case The conclusion Is
inevitable that the expansion Is involved
In some technical method of averages.
Otherwise the increase Is wholly contra
dictory Of known facts.
