est. The time between December 13 and

abstracts reflect surprisingly large
gains, as compared with the previous
statement which was record breaker.
The aggregate resources, of the 1856 banks
in New York state, as shown by the con-
troller's accounts are $206, ,159, ,556, which is
&226,961 less than the amount recorded in
December. but is substantially greater
than the figures of the first statement in
1900, which did not reach the 5000, ,O0O,-
600 mark. The new statement shows the
amount of individual deposits of the err~,
pire state national banks, which is con-
sidered the bankers barometer, to
be $123,955773. a gain of 81, ,634, ,486. The
leports of the forty-four national banks

nres by the enormous sums of $4S4, ,267, ,197
