MANY PRICE DECLINES
Dealings Almost Entirely for Pro
feSsiOnal Account.
Railways and the Industrial List
Particularly Weak Pronounced
FactOr-A Poor Bank Statement.
Decreases i'm Cash and Reserves.

NEW YORK. Feb. 17.-Prior 10 the pub
LEGATION Of the bank statement today. the
dealings in the stock market, which were
almost entirely for professional account,
were governed chiefly by the common ex-
pectations that the banks would make a
poor showing. These views appeared TO
outweigh all the other factors in the sit
uatiOu. and in consequence declines were
common throughout the market with a few
exceptions Western Union and Delaware.
Lacka wanna and Western were the most
conspicuous in this last respect, although
nothing that was new attended the move
ments in either stock.
The declines i'm the railway list were
generally limited but the whole industrial
quarter was particularly weak. American
Steel and Wire Federal Steel. and Ma
tional Steel all reflected pronounced pres
sure. There was nothing that was new
that attended the movements in these
stocks but 10 was a subject Of interest
that most Of the selling appeared to be
for Western account London was not a
factor in the local market OF any account,
the quotations from that quarter showing
irregular changes while the operations
here for foreign account were incOnsidera-
BILE.
As had been expected. the bank state
ment was a very poor showing and its final
results were emphasized by an uneNpect-
eddy heavy rise in the loan account, the
figures being 136S4.00o. The decrease m
actual cash amounted 10 S2.234,0eo, a sum
which was about IN line with the prelimi-
nary estimates. The statement was far
out Of technical proof inasmuch as the
deposit account rose only $3.50 GOO. not
withstanding the changes in loans and
cash. The decrease in surplus reserves
was 50. SSl 600 and the banks stiH held
spa. Ol6. OcO above the lawful requirements
