in Russia, where at court beautiful ones ornamented with gold and precious stones are frequently given by members of the reigning family to favorites. At Madrid and at Vienna painted and gilded eggs are offered to the sovereign at the close of the high mass on Easter Sunday, and are then distributed by the monarch among friends and officials present In most of the European capitals there are great military displays at Easter. In Ser lin, at the palace Of the Emperor, eggs prettily dyed, are hidden for the royal children and their little friends to hunt for.
 The custom of giving costly Easter eggs has been carried to point of almost ab- surd extravaganza in Russia, such pres ents sometimes representing value Of hundreds and even thousands of dollars.
 The Easter egg presented to the Czarina last year enclosed a splendid jeweled heart set in rare, many -colored gems and surrounded by twenty-five tiny minia- lures, portraits of members of the Rus sian royal family.

The Flnancier.

New York. April 6.-The Financier Will say:
 The changes in the leading items Of the associated banks of New York TOT the week ending April are heavier than TOT a month or more past. The current state ment covers a full week although TOT two days of this period the stock and com mercial exchanges were closed. The ex- hibit reveals a further decrease of 2,- 052. .5e5 in excess reserve, bringing the total surplus above requirements to so,8lf'S'o, the lowest figures touched since Decem- her & last The contraction was due main ly to loss of $6,67s,000 in specie ana legals, and the latter, in turn, renects III full the operations of the banks with the treasury and the interior. It should be explained that the drain on the banks by reason of gold exports etc., count to the full amount in the statement, wniie on the other hand receipts probably snow only averages The week, however, was characterized by several temporary trans actions that cut into bank totals
 The gold exports have already been mentioned. In addition a great deal of currency has been flowing out of New York in payment of sales of gilt-edged securities in this market, and the treas ury has also profted by reason or un- usual sales of stamps and payment or taxes etc., at this center. The banks. therefore, have been put to an unusual decline, but the reduction of the loan item $12, ,449, 900, with the fall in deposits of s1s,5O1, 300, offset nearly two-thirds the cash loss With reference to the changes in the leading items, it is to be noted that several large banks are responsible Tor the heaviest decreases. These institutions represent the syndicates which have fg- ured in deals of various kinds for some time past, and it is to causes incident thereto that the bulk of the weeks changes can be attributed. As to the gen. eral effect of the statement on the cur rent money market it Is idle to speak at length It will not be surprising if the revelation of the low state of reserves in New York cause an advance in call loans early in the week. but conservative inter ests do not apprehend much change in time money rates. unless it be in short loans. The larger banks seem to have the situation well in hand, and if the general belief is correct, no incentive to mark rates beyond a minimum figure exists.
