WEEKLY AVERAGES
OF CLEARING HOUSE

New York, December 22-The statement
of clearing house banks for the week
shows that the banks hold So, 2s0, 800 more
than the legal reserve requirements. This
is an increase of $4.979 $780, as compared
with last week. The statement follows:
Loans, $1,O27, 1SSSOo; decrease, $4ss, 900.
Deposits, 1911, 6lS, 500; increase $4,5s 400.
Circulation $59525, 500; decrease 25,5o0.
Legal tenders, $50. 565,5OO; increase ST.
499, 800.
Specie, S176627 600; increase, $46S7. 800.
Reserve, $246,19S,1OO; increase, $6126,SoO.
Reserve required. S2I2, 81, 200; increase,
s1,146,S5O.
Surplus. $3.50, 800; increase, s4,s799 $50.
Ex-United States deposits, 81, 43O. $50; in
crease 81, 100000
The surplus this week compares with
deficit last week of $1,699O5o.
New York, December 22.-The Financier
says this week:
The official statement of the New York
Associated Banks last week fully realized
early expectations, and indicated an entire
restoration of the surplus reserve after
showing deficits in each of the two pre-
vious weeks. The improvement i'll bank
conditions was due almost wholly to I'M
portant gains in cash, the loan account
contributed only moderately to such inn
provement showing but a very small con-
traction. The gain in cash was S6,126,S00
and the same amount almost exactly cor
responded with that which was estimated
upon the basis of the traceable movements
of money during the week; 1t may be
observed that this remarkable accuracy
in the estimates was obtained because
of the fact that the data for the cal
culation was supplied by the records of
cash movements at the sub treasury. Gen
eral deposits increased $4,S47, 400, which )
nearly one million below the total of the
gain In cash, less the decrease in loans,
and, therefore, the statement made only
fairly good proof.
The required reserve against general
deposits was augmented $1146,S50. deduct
ing which from the increase in cash left
S979,950 as the increase in reserve to
SO $50 800 surplus, against $1,699,050 defcen-
cy in the previous week. Computed on
the basis of deposits, less those of S16,-
sos, 200 public funds, which it may be noted
increased $1.36O, 200 during the week, the
surplus is $780, $50. Loans were contract
ed only S4S3000. 1t is surprising that with
the enormous liquidation in the stock
market and the heavy calling of loans by
the banks last week. this item should
show so small a decrease. The excess of
loans over deposits was $55,5S4500, against
$50 60f, 900 in the previous week.
The daily average of bank clearings was
s402 900 000 a net gain of $24,000.0o0, COM
pared with the week of December is.
Clearings on Saturday. rejecting Fridays
business, were 1881 1913, 0S7.

Ter Practiced Without Certificate.
Special to Times Republican.
Waterloo, Feb 22.-The jury in the
case Of stare of Iowa VS.. B. F. Miller,
the magnetic healer, has found the
defendant guilty as charged in the in
dictment.
The point at issue in this case was
not regarding defendants ability as a
magnetic healer, but was on the charge
OF having ,practiced without certif1-
cate as by law provided. The only
evidence necessary on the part of the
state was to show that he had pro-
fessed to cure and heal. The code de-
fines physician as one who prescribes
or prescribes and furnishes medicine
for the sick, or one who publicly pro-
fesses to he able to cure and heal.
