The banking capital of the United
states has noS only been greatly en-
larged during tn past year, but there
has been an important increase in cir
culation, Gays Clews' Financial Re
view, and the banks now have their
resources under better control than for
a long period Perhaps the greatest
strengthening in the monetary situa-
ton has come from the payment Of
heavy foreign loans, Of which no sta
tistical records such as TIE weekly
bank statement is available and which
consequently escapes attention except
by the initiated Our borrowings
abroad however, are a great many
millions less than in 1901, and our
ability to promptly redeem those OBJ
legations las vastly improved our
credit abroad, a factor that will count
in our favor in the future. for London
already shows more partially to make
advances on American stocks In the
food Of pessimism which has lately
broken loose. il is forgotten that cura-
tive forces have been quietly at work
along with the decline; the injured
being still occupied with their own
bruises and the uninjured naturally
regaining confidence slowly after the
shock of q thirty to forty points de-
cline. Nevertheless, the cure has been
going on lust the same. and is likely
to show tangible results when other
conditions favcr. There is now a dis
tinctly better feeling amongst those
who control the money market and
fear Of extreme stringency during the
coming fall IS much less acute. Be
yopd possibly the usual frmness and
activity witnessed during the crop
moving period. there is likely TO be
little disturbance; while the limited
volume of speculation in stocks and
the less capital required 70 carry them
makes pressure from that quarter
more remote than usual. This eN-
plains the absence of concern at re
cent gold experts. Gold Usually goes
abroad at this season. and slight
vance in money rates would quickly
stop the eiIlux; besides, we are always
producing gold in large sums, and the
annual Klondike output is now begin
ming to arrive.
