The movement Of money in the past
week showed a turn against New York on
interior account, the banks losing net on
shipments TO the West and South about

steadily il favor CT New York since the
middle of April, ari the change at this
period merely represents a normal enquiry
from the agricultural section of the coun-
try. The interesting point in this years
outward movement VIII centre on the
amount of national bank notes used in
meeting the interior demand II. as ex-
pected, the increase in bank note circula-
ticn is made TO do service in the usual fan
enquiry fo- currency, the reserves of the
associated banks will not be materially
affected by the shipments, as national bank
notes are not included in cash anC surplus
holdings. AS rule the West and South
call for less than S20CO0, coo in the autumn,
but the general increase in money through
out the country may reduce this amount
considerably this year. At all events the
money market is in no danger of serious
disturbance.

Chicago is now experiencing what New
York has but lately passed through a
gas war is on In the Western city. and If
the reports coming from there are true
1t will be even more destructive, finan-
cially, than was the one here. This con-
sidered, the wonder is not that Peoples
Gas has fallen TO around 90. but that II
has not fallen decidedly lower. Gas wars
are not profitable. And dividends cannot
well be paid without profits.

striking evidences Of the prosperity of the

BROOKLYN SUPPLY GROWING
PRESIDENT CIRCUIT FAvORS A TEMPO
RARY CONTRACT WITH A LONG
ISLAND WATER COMPANY.

Water officials in Brooklyn are not worrying as
much over the prospect Of a water famine as
they were last week. Since the East New-York-ave.
main shut off the South Brooklyn district has
been supplied from the Gravesend and New-Utrecht
systems 100000 gallons day being furnished This
relief Of the Ridgewood reservoir has resulted in
increasing the storage there by II 10000 gallons.
Il is thought that the emergency can be tided
over until the heavy fan rains come.
The total amount Of stored water as shown In the
reports yesterday morning. is 1850 900 gallons The
consumption on Monday. wash day was s5.17555
gallons as compared TO s., S47,7O0 a year ago.
Borough President Grout has been interesting
himself IN the water situation and has sought IN
formation from outside companies to their abil-
ity to furnish auxiliary water supply for Brook
lyn- He communicated the results OF his investga-
tons to Deputy Water Commissioner Moffett yes
terday.
Mr.. Grout informs Mr. Mofrett that 1t is ready to
carry out an agreement proposed IN March, 1898
and could begin to furnish water within twenty
days after a contract made. He sums It up
follows:
The Queens County Water Company proposes to
lay a conduit connecting it's pumping station at
n west Vol" Of the valley Stream pumping station
such conduit to be twenty inch cast iron f pipe
wells and brooks at Hewletts minimum quantity
Years Being at the rate Of 10000 gallons per day
for the price OF sss 800 per annu at the rate OF
Company also proposes to supply such additional
quantity OF water as may be required by the city
out interfering with the supply required for con
sumers on Its mains at the rate OF $50 per 1OOOoo
gallons.
Mr. Grout wrote also to the Jamaica Water Com
pany and the F1atbush Water Company. but as yet
has received no replies. In explanation OF his pro-
posal for the city to make outside contracts. he
says:
I have been opposed IN the past to any contracts
with private companies. because OF my conviction
only that the city ought TO own It's own supply
but that there was practical difficulty In doing
So Inasmuch as three years have slipped by and no
effective step has been taken 70 Immediately in
crease the supply IN Brooklyn and as an emergency
Is now upon us which bids fair to continue for an
Indefinite period, I believe that temporary con-
tract with one more OF these companies Is fully
justified.
