der the call of the state banking de-
partment for reports Of condition on
December 18th, twenty-one trust
companies and twenty-nine state
banks of Greater New York have
filed formal statements. While the
effects of the recent storms are very
plainly evident, especially in regard
to those few institutions against
which the attack seemed most direct,
the statements as a whole bear testi-
mony of the quick recovery and the
unwavering confidence of the great
body of depositors. The reports also
show that certain state banks Of New
York City did their share toward re-
lieving the financial situation in
other cities. They accomplished this
by accepting from local national
banks large quantity of clearing
house certificates leaving the nation
al banks large quantity of clearing
house certificates leaving the nation
al banks in a position to employ their
cash in the relief of customers and
correspondents in the interior.
Twenty-Five state banks of New
York, Brooklyn and other boroughs
of Greater New York, which have so
far reported show aggregate depos-
it's of $225,0OO, 900.
Of this enormous sum, the net loss
in Withdrawals since August % last
amounted to only s3,O56,117. The
losses were distributed among eight
cen banks, with total Withdrawals of
$13,925,761, while eleven banks
showed an aggregate gain of s1o,-
