Associated Banks Statement.

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE Financier says:
The banks of New York were able last week to
hold a small to surplus reserves, but this
result was made possible only through con-
traction Of loans and deposits. There was a
decrease of 81, $50, 900 in loans and Of S6,212,-
600 in deposits. The contraction in the
latter item lessened reserve requirements
about sl.60O,0 GOO. and this more than coun-
terbalanced the loss of ST. 600, 600 In cash,
thus accounting for the gain OF s534, $50
in surplus. The statement is considered to be
fairly satisfactory, but II it's totals correct
the receipts of gold from Europe and the Pa
CiffC Coast have not been sufficient to meet
losses to the interior and to the Treasury. AS
in the interior the outlook for a further acces-
sion of cash at this center is not as bright as
the case during the previous week, and
the inference that the familiar expedtent OF
not at an end. Still it is not TO be overlooked
in this connection that the anticipation of
Treasury interest may afford some relief, but
not enough to materially alter the existing sit
are now at the lowest points of the whole year.
A remarkable feature of the case is that time
money and commercial loans do not reflect the
existing stringency here rates holding only
terror banks which are steady buyers of paper
is accountable for this. The next two or three
weeks will go far toward determining the aver
age rate for money over considerable time,
as the crop season is ending; but the fact that
prices are universally higher and business Is
more active-two factors necessttatfng larger
volume OF currency at all points-sets the usual
calcuIation as to the amount of possible relief
through a return flow of money at naught.
During the week domestic exchange at lmpor-
tant cities dropped from 10 to Is cents. tam
gibIe Illustration that the demand for funds Is
not vet at end.

Barley and Oats.

The circular OF George Morrow & Co. says:
''BARLEY-Receipts for the week, 81. 14S ctls.
The Barley market is in rather a peculiar con-
ditiou. AS a rule a good, heavy rain has an
immediate and depressing effect upon the
market. but to-days heavy rain IS paid no
heed %. This would not be the case II there
were not a quiet little Call Board deal on in
December Barley, which, in spite Of receipts
and weather. seems fully able TO hold its own.
All offerings OF bright feed Barley, which
VIII pass the inspector, are snapped up Tor
pilIug purposes ard future delivery on Decenl-
Der contracts This all tends to give a healthy
tone the local spot market. although apart
from the Call Board demand there is not much
inquiry for spot Barley Of any kind. Shippers
will take heavy bright Barley at fair figures,
but as a rule sellers have TO meet their views.
Brewers are at last in the market for de-
sirabe lots and viii pay good prices for Sc
lected offerings The local demand from the
feed mills is comparatively light, as cheap
oats are being given a slight preference.
"OATS-Receipts for the week. % 3S2 cts.
The Oregon crop has at last commenced to
move and this week that State gives US 1000
ctls. These receipts are but a foretaste Of
what we may expect in the way of off-color
oats from that section. Doubtless their hOme
market is better than this but 1t is limited.
and sooner or later the bulk OF their poor Oats
must come to this port. We doubt very much
II current prices VIII induce holders in the
North 10 part with their cholce, prlBht and
undsmaged oats.
The present heavy and quite general rain
will unquestionably stimulate the demand for
Red and Black Oats for seed purposes, and
we know of no reason why they should not
advance in price soon
