The Financier says: THE striking fesa-
ture OF the official statement of the New
York associated banks last week was the de-
crease of Sl,66i,5o0 in cash instead of an
Increase of s1.iS960o as was estimated from
the traceable movements of money dur,ng
the week. 1t is difficult to explain the dis
crcpancy between the official loss and the
estimated gain on the theory OF averages,
for in the previous week there was a more
or less important difference which IL would
seem should have been corrected by the
average system. There were however large
payments by the banks into the subtreas-
ury i'm the closing days of the bank week
for account of institutions retiring eircula-
ton, and this may in part account for the

NEW YORK, Oct. 3.-The morning mar
ket, while presenting outwardly strong
appearance, displayed some nervousness
and prices We're inclined to sag whenever
long stock showed any disposition to come
on the market. The feature was the tend
ency toward reaction, a contraction of
business and some return of speculative
apathy. The news influences of the day
were unimportant, but such as they were
we're ignored and fluctuations seem to be
the result purely of technical operations.
The bank statement was somewhat disap-
pointing. The reduction in the loan ac-
count, however, was regarded as favor
able. The situation result of to-day'S
trading calls for little comment. The firm
ness in the steel issues was again the sus-
tanning factor.

discrepancy. The loans were decreased A.-
pected as the result of the somewhat vio-
lent liquidation in the stock market incident
TO the October settlements. Deposits were
decreased Sl,130,000, whereas the reduction
in loans and the loss of cash together called
for decrease of S., 500. 100; therefore. the
statement does not balance. 1t may be
noted that the balance was probably some
what deranged, as was expected. by reason
of changes incident to the merger of the

day, Oct. 10, while the Western Bank of the

list of the New York associated banks. The
required reserve was reduced $,032, 100
through the decrease in deposits, which sum,
deducted from the loss of cash, leaves
81 63l 500 as the decrease in surplus reserve,
making this item $l3 937. 500 Computed on
the basis of deposits less those of $780,
