BANKS ADD 70 SURPLUS
THIS IS DESPITE THE INCREASE
IN DEPOSITS WHICH Is ALSO
REPORTED
APRIL SHOWING WAS GOOD
Marked by Handsome Increases In
Cash, the Expansion Since the
Close of March Footing Up
About $14,OOO,OOO.

NEW YORK. April 21.-The Financier
says:
The New York banks are adding stead
lily to surplus, despite the increase In de-
posits, an operation which calls for ad-
6itlonal reserve. The statement for Che
current week shows a gain Of $6, 000 900 in
cash earnings. the result primarily of
treasury disbursements, although consld-
erable cash came to this center from the
interior. The increase in loans was $5,-
eOO,9OO, and in deposits $8,30O,900. Tho
statement does not balance by the usual
rules for proving, but the result, accord
ing to the published figures, was again
about &,OOO,OO0 in surplus reserve, bring
Ing the total excess above $14, 900.
The month Of April so far has been
marked by handsome increases in CT sh,
the expansion since the close Of March
footing up about $14.0O0,0O0. In the same
time loans have increased $25, 900 and
deposits $35, 100000 Whether the rising
loan and deposit totals will keep pace
with the cash gains now being made is
a question the answer to which will solve
the probable range of rates in money
over the present season AS matters
stand now the low rates prevailing en-
courage an advance in sterling exchange,
and this preSages a hardening sterling
market in face of credit due the country
larger than at any time during its his
tory.
This is an item noteworthy, as far
as the United States Is concerned, but 1t
only goes to show that merchandise has
been received where surplus wealth Is
seeking higher interest rates above. The
disbursement on bond premiums by the
treasury is adding to the pressure, and
the matter which must be reckoned with
is the imitation that is going on In ma
tional bank notes. The national banks
have turned out $600O,00O Of circulation
above the average, and reliable estimates
made on the basis of careful canvasses
indicate $100,OOO,OOO Of new national bank
money is in contemplation throughout
the United States. This will not be is
sued Immediately but its gradual lssu-
ance will have a clearly defined effect in
assisting gold exports.
THE number of clearing house banks
has been reduced by one during the
week, but an increase In the capital OF
another institution makes the total clear
ing house capital $72.222, 700. AS over $780,
100000 Of this is national bank capital,
the opportunity for new bank circulation
will be at once apparent. The total cir
culation now Is $21 $780, 100."

BRIEF NOTES OF SPORT.

Bech-Olsen, the Danish wrestler, was
given a benefit at Aurora hail. Milwau-
kee avenue and Huron street, Saturday
night. The great Danish wrestler ap-
peared in q. bout with his wrestling part
ner .sf.
Terry McGovern Is happily deficient in
all the attributes of the ordinary pugil-
ist. He does not drink liquor, nor smoke
cigars, but he ista very good pool player.
He is a boy yet, ,~in-all that the term i'm
plies, careless and Joyful, but very OBJ
serving and quick toi learn. McGovern's
symmetry of build leads many to believe
him smaller than he really is. His big
wrists, well-shapedi- legs and loins, and
massive neck are noticeable only when
special attention is paid to them. He is
not muscular, but the driving power in
his shoulders and arms Is plainly no.
ticeable.
Sam Harris, Terry McGovern's mana
ger, says that George Dixon is thinking
about re-entering the ring. Little
Chocolate, like all the rest of them, will
never admit that he has shot his bolt.
Dixon may be given chance to recover
his lost laurels in another fight with Nc

Forest Reserve Grazing,

About the middle of September the two representatives of the agricultural department, says the Albuquerque Citizen, Forester Pipchot and Botanist Coville, who visited New Mexico and Arizona last spring to study the question of grazing upon the forest re- servations, will return and cover the same field again. The object of the second trip is to observe lhe condition of the lands directly after being grazed. Their former trip of inspection gave them all idea of the condition of the grazing lands after the winter season, but before the sheep had been admitted.
 In the former trip they paid especial attention to the San FrrncisOO and Black Mesa reserves. but this time will investigate particularly in the San Fran cisco and Grand Canyon reserves, mak- ing crusory examination in the Black Mesa. Neither of these gentlemen feel, al liberty to give expression to his opin
 ion formed on the former trip. nor will they do so until they have submitted their views to the secretary of agricul
 ture in the fall. It is inferred. however, from their conversation that unless this coming fall inspection show, very dis astrOus effects of grazing within the forest reserves, that these two officials will report in favor of the grazing sys- tenn. The secretary of the inreror may abandon his idea of a joint commi ssion to make an investigation of this charac- ter in view of this extended inve-tiga- tion by the agricultural department.

Concerning the poorer students OF
Russia the Saturday Review says:
Their mendacity is passive rather than
active. Unlike the mendicant friars,
they never ask, but they know much
will be given them. They know, too
strange fact in strange country-that
the university is open to all, irrespec-
tive of means or position. Thus the
university becomes the poor Russian g
golden opportunity, for here, as else
where, there are many posts, for which
graduates alone arc eligible. A stroll
through the streets of Moscow during
term time furnishes abundant evidence
Of the popularity Of the university. The
uncompromising military blue and
green uniform which stamps the stu
dent, and which he can never, save
under dire penalties, exchange for
plain clothes, is to be met with at
every turn. A few rich students are

on foot.

A Cats Long .JumD.

New York Correspondence Pittsburg
Dispatch: How f. can cat jump
without hurting itself was partially
exemplified in Brooklyn. A pretty
white cat ran up a tree to get away
from dog, and at last crawled out on
a small branch at least sixty feet above
the ground. The branch was not much
more than a twig, and the cat could
not turn around. She sat up there on
the sWaying limb and meowed. At last
the tw7s s'.oke, and down came the
cat. She alighted en- the ground on
her feet, looked around for moment,
and then bouxded away. Which shows
that sixty-foot drop does not hurt
a Brooklyn cat, whatever it might do
to cats of other places.
