cd. a decrease as compared with the week
ending Dec. "A Of 1.234 cars. There were two
reasons for the falling off in the loaded-car
mOyement-one that no fregEts were moved
on Christmas except perishable goods There
is still q shortage of cars, but the situation
I'm This respect is improving. The Big -Four
and the Pennsylvania lines, in the latter part
of the week, brought west hundreds of empty
cars, which, with the unloading of the load
Cu cars received, relieved the pressure con-
slderably. Still the loaded-car movement is
largely ahead Of that OF former wears. Last
week 1912 more loaded cars were handled
at this point than IN the corresponding week
Of 1881 1867 more than in 1896, 1862 more
than in 1895 and 6u7 more than in the
corresponding week of 1894. The outlook for
heavy traffic this month, despite the proposed
restoration of rates, is very encoura ging.
There is SUCH a large amount of business to

there Will be an abundance of freight which

late. The shipments of machinery and man
utactured goods. such as furniture, lounges
and agricultural implements, are heavy. The
roads are handling more flour and cerealine
products than usual at this season of the
year, and not in either of the last ten years
have the roads handled as much coal ana
live stock as in the last thirty days. Local
business through December was the heaviest
of any December on record. Platform men
at the city treght depots were obliged. to
work overtime and additional switching en-
giues and crews were put on to handle the in
creased business. At the stock yards ana

BANKS IN GOOD SHAPE
IN SURPLUS CAUSED BY

The New York weekly bank statement given
# SATURDAY. shows the following changes:


Deposits, increased Observation-Disclosures. S,OS5, 800
Circulation, increased ...................... $4,000
The banks now hold $l9, ,975 in excess Of the
requirements of the % per cent. rule.
The New York Financier says: THE statement
of the associated banks for the week ending Dec.
81 shows decrease of $3.50 in surplus reserve,
for the reason, principally. that the treasury
called for the first installment of Pacific Railway
deposits thereby reducing the cash in bank.
Otherwise the statement is favorable and exhibits
the present strength of the institutions whose
items are included in the totals. Loans expanded

the season and the volume of exchange trans
actions. Deposits show relative gain Of S. 095, 500,
necessitating ar increased reserve Of over two
millions. The gain in cash for the week
only $1,5SS, 400, which is the net remainder Of
the heavy interior receipts. after deductng losses
to the treasury. The difference between the cash
receipts and the expanded reserve requirements
Of course out of surplus, reducing the excess
as noted. This is better result than had been
anticipated. Now that the year is at hand
and interior receipts probably will grow, it would
seem that the banks sustain the present vol
ume of business without embarrassment. The
fact that they have during tie last ninety days
provided for increased loan demands amounting
to about $50. 100000, and show deposits larger by
SOL 600. while their excess reserve is actually
50, S53 900 larger than on Oct l. affords tangible
evidence OF the extent to which they can expand
their resources under pressure. 1t is interesting
TO note that Dec. 81 one year ago the excess
reserve only $15 7SS $780, deposits $685. 064 200
loans $607, 49, 600 and total reserve 1884, 555 OO0
The years record, it is unnecessary to say. has
never been surpassed, but it is surprising to
note that the greater proportion of the growth
has been made within the last three months
Conditions favorable to a continuance of the
expansion which has been going in that time
Where it viii stop no one can say, but if
domestic needs require it there is little doubt
that loans will be transferred from foreign to
American account. This means gold imports and
may for the time being check the growth of the
totals. AS a matter of fact, however, it will
really mean more than the present expansion. of

GIVEN A BANQUET.


A large number OF friends OF James
w. j. Walsh, formerly Associated Press
Telegraph operator for the Brockton
Times, gathered around the banquet
board at Hotel Keswick, Brockton, on
Saturday evening TO do him honor. Mr..
Walsh was transferred during the mid
die OF the week TO the Providence News
and his friends were not appr .sed of the
fact in time to say goodbye. He re-
turned to the city of shoes Saturday
evening upon the invitation OF his
friends and dined with them. Every de-
partment of the Times was represented
and several prominent and professional
busines men were also in the party. An
elaborate menu was discussed until a
late hour, after which toasts were in
order. Editor Michael Moran, a per-
sonal friend, was made toastmaster
and he had many words OF praise for
the sterling qualities Of the guest OF
the evening. He was recognized both
for his ability as an operator and as a
gentleman, and ail greatly regretted
his departure from their midst. The
parting was made doubly sad when il
was learned that in a few short months
one of the leading young society ladies
Of the city will become his helpmate.
Among those TO speak words of praise
were Editors O'Neil and Regan of the
Times, Editor Moran of the Democrat,
License Commissioner j. s. Nolan. Or.
j. s. Halloran, DR.. Daley. and members
Of the reportorial staff Of the Times.
