We're Keeping.
Fair Summer sheds

But he feels not

Her carcssing.
I'ut why tlcplorc
His fate with sore
Distressing?
Did he not die
Midst comrades brave
And CORY?
Docs he not lie
In honors grave
With glory?
Shall live in song
And story?
In boyhuod's home

Unccasing.
In hope. in fear
Fell everywhere
With blessing.
Now falls the tear.
Her one most dear
Is missing.
Dim is the eye,
That once was bright
With gladncss
When he was nigh;
Now qucnchcd its light
In sadness.
Who knows loves height
Its depth. its might,
Or madness?
This namclcss grave
With flowers we strcw

That other hearts
With sorrow too
Are hcaving.
His name they keep
by love locked deep

FiNANCIER REVIEWS
BANK STATEMENT

NEW YORK. April 22-The Financier
says this week: The feature of the Of
hciaI statement of the New York asso-
clated banks last week was the much
larger increase in cash than was indicated
by the estimates. which were based upon
the traceable movements of money dur
ing the week; the statement showing a
gain OF $5.162.30O, while the estimates
called for an increase of 81. .437, $50. The
difference of about 50. 750, 000 between the
actual and the estimated gain was in
great part due to the fact that the bank
statement included the operations of Fri
day, or the entire bank week, while the
estimates took account OF only five days
OF that week ending with Wednesday
night This omission of Thursday was
necessary because of the closing of the
stock exchange on Good Friday and in
order TO make the preliminary estimates
OF any value publication thereof had to be
made on Thursday. The unsettled stock
made on that day doubtless caused a
large return of the money from nearby
points which had been remitted once in
the early part of the week. thus increasing
the bank averages; moreover subtreaSury
operations at the end of the week con-
tributed TO the gain of cash by the banks.
Deposits were increased 81, ,266, 600 which
amount IS only $519, 500 less than the sum
or the increase IN loans and in cash; there
fore the statement made a good proof
The required reserve was augmented
s., 066. $50 through the increase in deposits,
which augmentation in reserve require
ments deducted from the increase in cash
left $2,O95, $50 as the gain in surplus re-
serve 10 Sll. l.44S, ,OSO. Computed upon the
ba sis of SIG. Gas. 400 public deposits the
surplus is $15,6S7. 900. Loans were in
creased 1858. 500. but this item was prob
ably made up on declining averages. There
was doubtless a large expansion of loans
during the first half of the week. which
was followed by heavy liquidation on
Thursday and thereafter -as the result of
the unsettling fall of stock values on
Thursday. These hquidatiOns however,
were not in sufficient volume to offset
the earlier increase IN loans. The daily
average of bank clearings for the week
was 1923, ,O00, 00e, against 347, 600 600 in the
previous week. The clearings on Satur-
day, rejecting Fridays business, were
only $123. .636. .237; the difference of nearly
100000 between this sum and the
daily average. approximately representing
the amount which stock and other ex-
change business contribute to the trans
actions passing through the clearing house

parsons of loans show that eight banks
