each tom in the Territory to raise
its respective portion of the same in

The Financier says One notable
feature of the official statement Of the
New York associated banks last week
was the reduction of $5,008.10O i'm loans,
making the decrease in this item for
the fortnight S9520,000. This was
largely the result of liquidatiOns con-
seQUent upon the decline in the stock
market, although, as noted in the pre-
viOus week the reduction in loans then
was principally caused by operations
incident to the pending merger Of the
National Bank of Commerce and the
Western National Bank of the United
States.
The cash reserve last week decreased
S638. $50 net. which amount rs consid-
erably in excess of that estimated
upon the basis Of the traceable move
ments Of money, this estimate indicat-
ing a gain of S111. 800. The loss of cash
was chiefly caused by the drain of
money 10 the south through treasury
transfers to New Orleans and direct
movements to the cotton ports. these
transfers amounting for the week TO
