BANKS MAKE BIG GAINS
State and Savings Banks of Iowa
Show Large Increase in
Deposits
THE GAIN IS SURPRISING

Deposits More Than Twenty Two Mil.
lion Dollars Above the Figures for
1eo4-Bankers Had Predicted That
the Statement Would Show a De-
crease-The Trade Review.

Des Molns;, Dec 2.-The state bank
statement for November 8 shows an
increase In deposits in the state and
savings banks OF Iowa Of mora
than $3,O00,0o0 in about two and one
half months. They now amount to
more than $154.0O0,0O0 in this class OF
institutions alone. In the national and
private banks probably almost as much
more is deposited.
) The increase Is somewhat surprising
for the reason that the fall of the year
usually results in the withdrawal OF
funds with which to move crops or to
feed live stock pending market. Bank
ers have been predicting that the state
ment would show a falling off in de-
posits--noth:ng material, but still de-
crease. The statement shows the con-
trary.
There has been an increase of more
than $22.000.000 in the deposits in the
state and savings banks of Iowa since
Nov. 10, 1904, or during the single year.

during the last quarter But two OF
the state banks have become national
banks in the meantime, and one loan
and trust company which reported
formerly is not in this report. So that
the increase of five banks, net, In the
number Is not wholly responsible for
the increase OF almost s4,000,000 in de-
posits during the same period. There
was an increase of but $4,000 in cap
ital stock, as compared with the last
report. but this was due to the fact
that the banks which We're added were
OF small capital and the two that were
nationalized had $4,000 each and the
loan and trust company not now in
cluded had 100000.

Suckers and Feeders.

Chicago, Dec. 2.-The holiday broke
into the market this week, and put
check on the country demand. 1t was
evident that most country buyers pre-
ferred to remain at home close to
turkey, and today there was very
small showing of buyers. Local deal
ers had fairly good showing of steers
on hand, which they accumulated early
in the week, but today they were un-
able to add much to the supply for
there was almost nothing in the stock
err and feeder line available. The mar
ket was quiet and steady all along the
line. The movement has been slow
for several days and traders do not
expect to make a good clearance this
week unless a stronger demand devel-
ops. Most of the medium stockers
and feeders today sold at $3@3.6O, with
inferior stockers down to 1925.

The Beef Situation.

The trade will close the week on a
very satisfactory basis as compared
with a week ago. Appreciate adj
vances have been scored for nearly all
classes of steers and the smaller sup
plies of 61,40O together with the lay
off Thursday, have permitted the beef
stocks to work down considerably,
thus giving assurance of a liberal call
from the packers in the next week at
least No one expects any very big de-
mand, however, and very moderate
supplies will likely suffice to fill
slaughterers' needs.
1t is evident by the manner in which
fat beeves were taken by packers this
week that the poultry trade has not
cut beef sales very severely, the high
price of poultry being bar to liberal

Prediction of Liberal Advance
In Worlds Shipments, Has
Lowering Effect Today
SMALL REcElPTslN NORTHWEST
This Feature Had Tendency Toward
Checking tho Pressure to seII--corn
Market Hold Steady, and Trading
Wa. ouist-oats Firm, Despite Lib
oral Receipts-Prevision Easier.

Chicago Dec. 2.-The prediction that
weekly statistics will show a liberal
advance in worlds shipments of wheat,
caused bearish sentiment in the mar
ket here today. Small receipts in the
northwest, however had a tendency to-
ward checking the pressure to sell. As
q result, the volume Of trading was
small, with commission houses the
principal sellers. May opened at ssh
to SSss and held around SSh@S8A.
Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago re-
ceipts were 445 cars.
The harket become weak later In
the session and May closed off " at
SIX @S7N.
Corn.
Moderate demand from commission
houses and shorts, held corn steady.
Firm cables were one of the main fac
tors, altho the market was Influenced
somewhat by the unsettled corn belt.
Tradins was quiet. May opened 44&
to 44H and held within the opening
range. Receipts were 1872 cars.
The market reacted in sympathy
with wheat, May going down to 43ss a
431s. Covering by shorts caused q
steadier feeling and the close was
steady, May unchanged at AN
Oats.
Notwithstanding Liberal receipts,
oats were firm. The feature WAS the
buying Of May by a leading bull. Some
improvement was noted In the cash
and export demand. May opened at
s2@33M to 32h. Receipts were 210
cars.
Provisions.
Provisions were trifie easier on
moderate realizing. A decline in the
price Of live hogs had depressing
effect.
