Large Increase During the Past
risUns Made.

Large iucrensc During the Past
Nenr--Compnrisons Made.
To the Editor of The Post
Quoting from the Associated Rress dis
patches published in The Post of"February
2, the public is informed that the totals
of bank clearings at leading cities for
January, as reported to Bradstreet's bear
testimony to the immense volume of bust
ness, representing commercial, financial
and speculative transactions passing
through the banks during the opening
month of 1898. The total ciearings at
forty seven cities of the United States az
gregate 81, 965 900, GOO. With the exception
oil the month of December 1892 the top of
the boom before the panic of 1898, the
month Just closed furnished the largest
total on record The item proceeds to
state. likewise, that the feature of the
ciearinss in January was the almost
unanimous nature of the increases only
four cities in the United States showing
decreases as compared with year ago"
1t may interest your readers, and will
certainly be matter of city pride to the
business community, to know that Houston
was not one of the four cities in the United
states showing decreases On the con-
trary the bank clearihgs of the city of
Houston show IA decided increase not only
for the month of January, 1898, but also
very substantial increase over the year of
1896 The total bank clearings of the city
of Houston for the year 1896 were $780,
565Il3, whilst for the year 1897 they foot
up S2I2 ,350, 1872, which is gain of S22-
1920, an increase in volume of business
comparing most faNorably with the fore
most cities of the United States. Respect
fully yours, Il. Raphael.
