WEEKLY BANK STATEMENT.

NEW YORK, May 14-The Financier says The New York banks according to their state ment hold surplus of nearly s47, ,0O0, 900, the largest reported since last July. The down. ward tendency of the money market finds a logical explanation in the statement, with it's reported heavy gains of cash.

The gains in de- posits for the week were made in great part by four five of the leading banks and the large increase is also traceable to them, but be reflected in other institutions with results not at all difficult to foresee.
