New York, Oct. 22.-Aecording to re-
ports received tonight from the prin-
cipal cities of the South and West. the
suspension of the Knickerbocker Trust
Company has had no effect whatever on
banking or financial conditions outside of
New York. There were slight fiurries in
Pittsburg. Boston, and Baltimore, but
these were purely local.
In Pittsburg sixty banks were repre-
sented at a meeting at which T. H.

AT its conclusion il was announced that
every national bank and trust company
in the city was in good condition.

felt: that they are lenders rather than
borrowers, and that the financial situa-
ton is unusually good.

New York, Oct. PAT the opening Of
the stock market to-day, call money was
quoted at 10 per cent. The quotation was
entirely nominal Up to noon. with the
exception of a few small loans, there
were no offers whatever Of money on the
floor Of the Stock Exchange Many brok-
ers considered the condition unprecedent-
ed. The banks, learning of the run on
tne knickerb0cker Trust Company, We're
replenishing rather than decreasing their
cash holdings, The stock market accord
ingly had little bottom. for the reason
that brokers whose loans were called
were in the greatest uncertainty as TO
whether or not they would be able to Sc
cure renewals on any terms.
Early In the afternoon the rates for
call money advanced to 60 per cent, and
still the offerings were comparatively
small. There was a subsequent decline
TO 40 per cent on offerings, made pTin-
cipally by the First National Bank; but
half hour before the close, money loaned
at 20 per cent, the highest figure Of the
day. The average rate was 20 per cent
Two Notable Exceptions.
While other banks were holding back
the First National loaned an aggregate of
$5.00O000. The National City put out, it
was reported, $50o.OC0 at 6 per cent but
other institutions made almost no offers
of caH money until late in the markets
session. The smaller banks in the Clear
ing-hOUse Association, it was said, made
no offerings whatever, and there was
considerable criticism of these institutions
10y the more important banks in the Wall
street district In the opinion of bankers
who favored offerings of money. the sit
uation was one that warranted on the
part of every bank In the Clearinghouse
Association a decrease Of . per cent in
rserve. Ii was argued that the theory of
maintaining a reserve is very largely for
protection i'm times of stress, and that
the situation Nto-day certainly justified
protection of the market So that these
banks with call loans might he able 70
secure the amount of the loan by the
sale of securities.
CIeaFing-hOuse Efforts.
An effort was made early in the day
TO induce clearinghouse banks to advance
money on call for this purpose. If any
trust companies or other institutions were
calling loans il was essential, il was main
tanned. that the securities be sold on easy
terms, protecting the lenders interests.
In the last hour " business some prog
ress was made in this direction, and the
plan was. in fact, put into operation
