NEW YORK. April 7.-Today's bank
statement did not fulfill popular expecta-
ton. The increase Of one and three
quarter millions in lawful money was only
half as large as the street had been led
to expect from the known movement Of
money The increase OF nearly Sl3.0o0.coO
in the loans was a surprise.
A moderate expansion was looked for be
cause OF greater activity in the stock
marl-et but comparatively few persons
had taken into consideration the proba-
bility OF heavy borrowings in connection
with the payment of Sl5OoO,0O0 for the
new issue Of New York Central stock that
was made Monday.
For the first time in many weeks the in
crease in cash and loans are accurately
reflected in the deposits. AS the increase
in that item calls for more than three and
a half millions reserve. the net results is a
decrease in the surplus reserve Of nearly
81 zoe coo.
Until the statement was made public the
market was strong. London changed its
attitude over night and bought freely.
particularly Of Chesapeake and Ohio. That
and Missouri Pacific were the leaders in
demand for Southern Pacific on Mr.. Hunt
fngtons denial Of current reports Of
lack Of harmony among the larger stock
holders Of the company. Brooklyn Rapid
Transit began to respond TO the tips that
have been current all the week that the
stock would be advanced. They are doubt
less based upon expectations Of increased
earnings as soon as the usual summer
travel over the system begins.
Sugar Refining was also exceptionally
strong on the growing belief that inter
ests other than the management Of the
American Refinery Company will even
tually settle the Improbable war in the
refining industry
The reactionary tendency in the late
trading was most pronounced in Peoples
Gas. in the granger stocks, and in Balti-
more and Ohio. The closing was irreg
ular.

tfIom iue Chicago OnrOWClC)
Pedestrians in Clark Street yesterday
afternoon witnessed an impromptu museum
attraction on a different side of the thor
oughfare from the one which usually fur
nishes such entertainment Pizzario. a
tame monkey that has sat with content
ment every afternoon for weeks on the
ledge of his mistress window, mistook a
series OF huge icicles hanging from the
roof for a part of his own stage fixtures.
He bounded from his station to the big
gest Of the group and was soon ultering
cries Of JOY over the sport.
For a minute or so the exhibition anus
ed the animal more than the few people
who gazed upward at the dangling figure.
Soon the ice warmed by the monkeys
body, began to melt and the long-tsiled
creature found il much more difficult to
cling on. He endeavored to reach his win
dow. but the distance was too great Pig
carlo attracted his mistress by strange
cries, but she. gazing over the ledge. be-

rope.
A crowd OF men and boys on the other
side Of the street waited for the animal 10

TO a tragic ending when he managed to
wind his tail around an icicle that had
been least affected. Then someone in the
crowd thought OF rescue and hurried for a
fire ladder. Within ten minutes the mon
key was returned to his mistress.

The following list OF active securities
with their closing prices yesterday, and
on Saturday. March 81, shows the irregu-
larity Of the market. There have been
some good gains and some small declines
and they have occurred in all parts Of the
list The gains have been more important
than the declines. however. and after the
squirt Of the previous week the record is
quite satisfactory. The grangers. the
trunk line securities, and the fractions,
in addition to Sugar and Peoples Gas,
have advanced. The steel stocks, the Pa
cifcs and the Southern securities have
declined.

Careful market people are inclined to
the belief that during the next few days
and perhaps for even a longer period.
such stocks as the Atchisons and the Bal
timore and Ohio securities. which have
been doomed rapidly and to much the
highest prices on record. may be dropped
somewhat in favor OF other groups that
are quite as full Of merit but have not yet
advanced TO the same extent. Ii would
not be very surprising If the high price
records of the Atchisons and the Balti-
more and Ohios made during the past
week were the best for some time to come
Even some recession from the best level
seems probable. The Atehisons should
not be bought except on good recessions,
and il is doubtful if Baltimore and Ohio
common should be bought under any cir
cumstances. Many believe that the lat
ter stock is already selling much too high
for its dividend prospects. 1t should be
remembered. however. that it is not likely
to 20 below SO for the present. on ac
count Of the So 600 geo stock that is 70 be

Central seems the hest speculative prop
osition al present TO many. 1t has not

erably below its price last year before the

cent immense increases in earnings IN

dizement OF this great system. and the

assured
The steel and iron securities continue to
hang back. Their record for the entire
week is one Of the poorest on the list.
Sentiment regarding this group is. how
ever. none the less bullish John W
Gates was expected in New York last week
and 81 was said that he intended TO begin
q bull campaign in the steels. He did not
arrive but will be in the city some time
this week. II is still asserted by his
friends that he intends TO boom American
Steel and Wire especially. Intrinscally
the outlook for these stocks is as fine as
that Of any on the list. II IS quite GER
tain that the records Of these companies
viii be better this year than they we're
last, as the high prices of the present will
prevail during the entire year whereas
present prices we're not paid last year IN
iii during the closing months II is Ger
tain, too. that the established rate Of divi-
bends viii be paid on the common stocks
and that some stocks will be put on the
dividend list for the first time in the near
future. With this outlook the present
level Of prices in the securities makes a
most interesting comparison. The present
approximate prices on a few Of these Sc
curities and the dividends paid. or reason
ably certain in the near future, are given
here. with the rate Of interest TO be real
