bank statement The disbursements of cash
by the sub treasury on account Of Government
payments have almost offset its receipts on ac-
count OF revenues. But the banks have de-
posted at the sub-treasury for telegraphic
transfer TO the interior $l052, eco, The heavy
outward movement early in the week has been
partly offset by large receipts later in the
week. This would indicate a loss in the in
terror movement Of about 81 500, GOO. Against
this there have been receipts Of 50 SOC, 900 OF
foreign gold and about s75o0o0 by cashing Of
drafts on the San Francisco mint by the sub
treasury, making a total of about So. $50, 600.
This would indicate a net gain to the cash
reserves Of the bank of over 81. 600, 900. The
banks further reduced their loans so there IS
a fair prospect OF an increase in the surplus.
The first payment OF anticipated interest on
Government bonds will be made on Monday
But the prospects do not indicate that applica-
ton will be made on a large scale. although
this payment is without rebate. The bond

growing disposition to wait until the progress
of the South African war affords some idea
OF its outcome and duration and until the un-
locking of money from the Treasury or the re-
ceipts of gold from Europe and currency from
the interior checks the depletion of the New
York bank reserves and ends the calling of
loans which has been in progress for some
weeks past. This halt in the market and the
insensiblity TO the plentiful favorable facts in
the situation have naturally led TO bearishness
among the traders and to manipulation de-
signed to put prices down.

EASTERN MARKETS
Ne1U York Stock Market.

NEW TORK, Oct. 13.-The temper Of specu
lation was determinedly bearish to-day and
favorable incidents were persistently ignored.
The reactionary spirit found its chief vent by
selling Brooklyn Transit. That stock was the
leader Of the market in point OF activity, and
although the dealings did not approach the
hlgh-water mark Of few weeks ago the un-
supported condition OF the stock and the large
blocks offered suggested a resumption OF late
conditions. Metropolitan Street Railway seemed

tie affected and the New York Gas stocks were
firm. There were some wide movements in
stocks not usually prominent. New York Air
Brake fell nine points and the Flower group

sympathy with Brookly Transit Offerings of
sugar and Tobacco were greater than could

pressed the common losing 2lk and preferred

resistance. Call loans were easier again, the
