THE BANK STAT EMENT

DAMN Ola o<-N
For no apparent reason the market
went off on the publication of what was
regarded as a fairly good bank state
ment, and the closing wss generally be-
low yesterdays final prices. Save in the
matter of loans. where a greater &C.
creaee was looked for, the bank state
ment about met popular expectation.
The comparatively small contraction OF
loans was due, it is thought. to the fact
that. much of the money called in by the
banks during the early week was re-
loaned later. The aggregate of loans now
outstanding is $751; 1000, or about $780,
900 less than when the last slump in the
market began. The sub-Treasury made
another transfer of $4,000 to San Fran
cisco and $4,000 to New Orleans.
The bond market followed closely the
movement of stocks, but fluctuations
were not so pronounced either way.
Most of the business of the week has
been concentrated in tho semi-speculative
