WEEKLY BANK STATEMENT.

NEW YORK April 15-The Financier says:
For the first time since January Is last the
weekly statement of the New York clearing
house banks shows an increase in surplus
serve the gain for the seven days ending with
April Is having been almost FOUR and one-half
millions The highest point attained in the
matter OF excess cash during the current year
was on the first date named. when the. sur
plus was over $50 900, as against SIS 90
now.
But the interim has been marked by an ex-
pansion of $42 COG, 600 in loans and $2hOOGUOO in
deposits In addition to the Increased reserve
requirements. due to enlarged deposit Ilablil-
ties the banks have lost rather heavily to the
interior. Now that this movement is at an
end and the loans are showing decreasing
tendency. the normal result faVors rising
percentage of average reserves and correspond
In addition to the causes named the payment
of the Philippine indemnity will have the effect
Of temporarily adding to the surplus cash IN
banks. since the payment as contemplated at
present involves a transfer OF the cash to the
banks in purchase OF exchange, the only olIset
being the million dollars weekly which the Sec
retary proposes to call from public repositories.
It will be seen that every factor IS operating
stitutions. OF the changes in the current state
ment the most important is the contraction of
SO 352 200 in loans. due in part to the heavy
liquidation OF the past ten days and to opera
tions incident TO the financing of several heavy
transactions. The loan contraction has had the
natural effect Of reducing deposit liabilities. and
the decrease Of $3.50, 400 is 10 be thus ac-
counted for. This shrinkage reduced the re-
serve requirements by 81, GIL 800. and the gain
81 452 700 heavier than for the previous week.
While as stated, everything favors easy
prospect for funds, it is not to be inferred that
the market VIII be the borrowers. since the In
stitutions are exercising considerable caution
in advancing money on industrfals. although
as q matter OF fact. this is not the result of
sudden determination but rather the enforcing
of q policy which to a greater or less extent has
been operative for some time.
