SIXTEEN MILLIONS AVAILABLE
New York Banks Provided with Extra
Cash from Government Gus
toms Receipts
BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Mar

WASHINGTON, March 26,--Under in
structions recently issued by the secre-
tary of the treasury, collectors OF GUS
toms throughout the country were dt-
rected to deposit their customs receipts
in the regular repositories. This, how
ever, did not embrace the so-called sub
treasury cities, These instructions have
been today enlarged by the secretary
so that the public deposits with national
bank repositories in New York will at
once be increased about $15,000,000 from
customs receipts under the provisions
of the act of March 4, 1907. This ac-
tion is taken with a view to facilitate
the redemption of the per cent bonds
of 1907 and also to render available ad-
ditional funds for the usual disburse-
ments occurring April 1. The secretary
also has instructed the treasurer of the
United States to mail at once to the
owners of the checksc for interest due
April /, 1907, on registered bonds OF the
2 per cent consols and the per cent
funded loan of 1907. The subtreasury
officers have been instructed to cash
the checks on presentation and to cash
any April coupons belonging to the
bonds of the two loans.
Secretary Cortelyou's action today
with reference to the deposits of Gus
toms receipts will result in relieving
the money market to the extent OF
about $4,000, 900.
OF this amount S15.OOO,00O Will today
be deposited In the depository banks in

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET
Prices Hold Firm in Wheat-FeW
Offerings In the Corn
By Associated Press

By Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 26.-Wheat was in
active at the opening because of firm
cables, numerous green bug reports and
continuance of hot weather in the
southwest, especially in Kansas. For a
time offerings were comparatively
light, but at the end of the first half
hour prices eased off somewhat on real
izing by local longs. The easy feeling
developed later into weakness because
of reported rain in Western Kansas. The
wet weather reports were later denied
and the market closed firm on renewed
buying by shorts and commission
houses.
May wheat opened IS a 14c niger at
76c to 1850, sold off to 75c and closed
May corn was firm because of a
scarcity of offerings. Receiving houses
reported that country purchasers We're
very small and this strengthened the
market Commission houses were the
principal buyers and. the greater part
of the offerings came from the longs.
May corn opened u 6D ~ higher at
46Ac sold between Acc and 1850 and
closed at 461sc.
Trading in oats was very light, but
the tone was strong. May opened y Q
Ac higher at 41&c, sold between Al Is C
and Al 7s and closed at Al Bc.
Provisions were strong on a lively
demand by short packers. decline of
5@7hc in the price of live hogs had
no effect on traders At the close May
pork was up zoe, lard was up 10c and
ribs 100 12hC higher.

London Stock Exchange

Dy ASSUCItlHU I-IV5S.
LONDON. March 26.-Trading on the
stock exchange today opened with prices
sensitive. The renewed weakness was
largely attributed to yesterdays decline
in New York. There was no buying
power here and very little business.
Americans opened above parity, but
soon became very weak on offers to sell.
Later Americans became flrmer and by
/ 80 p m. were generally about a point
above the lowest of the day.
In the course of the afternoon the gen.
eral tone Of the. markets hardened. though
considerable liquidation of accounts
caused much irregularity. The quotations
of Americans further declined and the
drop of the metal prices caused a weaken
ing in copper shares.
