The Financier says:
 Last weeks statement of the New York associated banks was the most remark able exhibit. It failed to reflect the losses to the banks through the exports of gold to Europe during the deek or the average of such exports of gold that occurred in the closing days of the previous week. Moreover, the statement apparently took no account of the losses to the banks through subtreasury operations. Instead of showing a loss of more than six mill lions, representing exports of gold which should have been disclosed and a net loss of more than four millions, after deduct ting from the aggregate traceable loss the gain on the inter-bank movement and through receipts of new gold the state ment recorded a decrease of only $1l0,6o0 cash. The deposits fell off $7, 30o which amount was greater by apout sone mil lion than the sum of the contraction in loans plus the loss of cash, and therefore the statement did not make a good proof.

HONOLULU IS IN
SOUND FINANCIAL.
AND TRADE STATE
In Spite of Taxes and Delayed Sugar Shipments
With Calls From San Francisco,
Status Is Good

that this condition there should be re.
Elected in some degree here. The con.
sentative policy with customers there
is carried out with customers here. But
it is merely conservative policy, not
a Tightening of money nor a with
holding from our real needs.
Then, too, there has just passed a
tax paying period which has withdrawn
from circulation several hundred thou
sand dollars. This money is in the
treasury vaults, no longer available for
the uses of commerce, and will only
get back into the channels of trade
by degrees. If this money had not been
gathered in by taxation and put into
the treasury vaults, it would, for the
most part, now be in the banks to
be loaned out, or in the hands of the
community and in the channels of trade.
Then again, the movement of the
sugar crop is fully month behind
what it was last year. The crop, in
stead of having reached the market
and the returns for it being here to
swell the volume of trade, is still await
ing shipment or on its way to market.
But this condition is righting itself
every day. 1t can be but temporary
in it's effect.
ffThe result of these conditions is
that, generally speaking, balances in
the banks are perhaps a little lower
than usual, there is less money to loan.
The banks must exercise care that the
regular requirements of trade are met.
Interest rates have stiffened a very
little, and all speculative propositions
can be received only guardedly.
'.This is the financial situation as
seen in the light of banking expert
ence. Studying other indexes of trade,
we find that while sugar stocks as a
rule are about at prices where they
were at a date taken at random say
two years ago, the stocks of transport
tation companies and similar enterprises
are higher. Now what does that in
dictate? Take the Oahu Railway Com
pany, for instance, with rates prac-
tically what they were two years ago,
not any higher, it is earning more
money because it is doing more bust
ness. The volume of trade has in
creased. The Inter-Island Steam Navi-
CATION Company shows similar condi-
lions. The Hilo Railroad similar con
ditions. The retail trade of Homo
lulu shows a very satisfactory volume
for the season.
"There is nothing in the evidence
to indicate anything but q satisfactory
of affairs with an optimistic
outlook. -
There is practically no money for
speculation, but sufficient for regular
demands" said Clarence Fl. Cooke,
cashier of the Bank of Hawaii. Speak
ng for our own bank there is no in
lication in any line but of a sound, |
wholesome and, on the whole, prosper

Keeps up which is an indication that |
