Associated Banks Statement.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S.-The statement Of the
Associated Banks Of New York for the week
ending October 2S was Unexpectedly favorable
IN its showing. Predictions based on known
movements of money had been that the banks
would show a loss of something like s2 600 600
cash. Instead of this the decrease was Iass
than 100000 and deposits contracted So
740. 20O lessening the reserve requirements
S1.6s5,150 the surplus cash in banks was
swelled to So, OBS 525. This amount small as n
seems in comparison with the usual excess A.
still the largest reported since the onenina, aS
September. To what extent the statement re-
fleets the actual condition of the banks can
not be determined. Certainly the known move
ment OF money the past six DAYS has not
been in favor of New York either on treasury
call loans on Friday does not seem consistent
under the circumstances. The interior is still
drawing on this center and the banks have lost
to the treasury The banks, however while
they are stronger in reserve than at the close
of the previous week, have recoiped at the
expense of outstanding commitments loans
has been followed now with but brief internis-
sion for a period extending back to July and
is no less than SOS, GOO 900. On July s, when
loans and deposits were at a maximum, the
continuous drain in cash since that time has
been met is easily perceived. The continuance
Of this manner OF meeting extraordinary
demand is probably nearing an end. for the
normal for a return flow of money is
at hand II the bank averages correct. the
crop demand is over but there is nothing more
this demand has ended. The truth of the mat
ter is that conditions this year are so widely
different from those of former seasons that
previous experience cannot be used as O guide
The interior banks unusually strong In
cash. and while New York is the loaning cen
ter the supplies of money for the purpose are
forthcoming on demand from sections which
UP to this year have not entered into competi-
tfon with the New York institutions While
New York shows unparalleled falling off in
loans. Official national bank figures prove that

interest, and trade is practically all for con-
sumptive purposes. Peaches may be the ex-

little energy in the business that the market
sagged steadily throughout the session. The

political situation abroad. December opened

Corn was easy early in sympathy with wheat,
but later rallied under generous country buy

visible supply, together with improved cash
demand helped to sustain the advance Eleva-
