WALL STREET NOTES
Savings Banks to Require
Notice of Withdrawal.
COMMENT is MADE
Action VIII Lessen Possibility of
Further Drain on Cash Reserves of
National Banks-Question of Issu-
ing Certificates Undecided by CIenr-
ing Household Imports Coming.

New York Oct 26-The action taken
yesterday by the presidents of the saw
ings banhs Of Greater New York in de-
Gliding TO require the full period Of legal
notice Of the withdrawal OF deposits was
not commonly known until this morn
ing. and although it testified TO the ex-
igencies Of the present situation. Il was
yet universally regarded in Wall street
as a piece OF favorable news.
The step obviously viii very largely
lessen the possibilities of a further drain
upon the cash reserves OF the national
banks. SO, too, Wall street looked forward
hopefully during the hours OF the Stock
Exchange session this morning To the
probability that the members Of the
clearing house committee would at their
meeting conclude 70 allow such members
OF their organization the permission. SO
that they might settle their balances II
the clearing house for some time in Ger
tificates OF assets, rather than cash
II was not however. regarded as abso-
lutely certain that the clearing house
would vote to issue these certificates. and

COMMENT ON MARKET.

G. Bowie Chipman, Of K. r. Chapman
& Co-"Almost all the transactions I'm
to-days market were evening up Of con
tracts or cash purchases. The attitude
Of the leading houses continues that Of
advising against any speculative commit
ments and advocating purchases for in
vestment ard these only when accom-
panied by cash The bank statement was
about on a line with expectations, and
considerable satisfaction was expressed
that the deficit in reserve amounts 10
only 81, $4,000. Late I'm the day if was
announced that the National City Bank
had arranged to import S3,500.oOO in gold,
which helped in adding strength 10 the
final few minutes The situation locally
shows considerable Improvement, and is
being held we'll in hand"
Benjamin Woodruff, Of Post & Flagg-
The market continued to hold well, and
trading was less feverish and in smaller
volume than in the past few days The
early Improvement. following the lead
from London. did not last very well. and
there was some reaction in prices after
the opening The bank statement made
poor showing as was to be expected, but
# probably did not fully reflect the more
recent deposits made by the government.
II IS announced that S3.500,0 600 gold has
been engaged for import by the City
National Bank. and it is likely that fur
ther amounts will be secured on the ar
rival of new South African gold in Lon
don. on Monday. The clearing house, al
its meeting, authorized clearing house
certificates. but viii undoubtedly restrict
these as much as possible. The runs on
the two trust companies have about con-
cluded and no new difficulties has been
announced. It looks as II the situation
was beginning TO mend but we must not
forget that it has been the most severe
financial crisis witnessed in New York
in a generation. and that IL Will be q
long time before the effects wear away"

Trading on the Washington Stock EX-
change yesterday amounted to 80 shares
Of stock and $500 in bonds The sales
were largely in the higher priced stocks,
such as Mersanthaler and the bank
shares. on which the largest sums CT
money can be secured The selling Of
these stocks for the past few days to
realize cash has been the chief feature
Of the trading
1t Is noticeable that these securities
are promptly taken up by buyers, so
that there is no marked falling of in
prices, though TIE various issues are re-
garded a bargain at the present level Of
prices. On the whole, il Is a fortunate
and healthfal situation. The stock comes
out slowly. often in fragmeutary lots.
indicating that the seller is parting only
with enough for immediate pressing
needs. This indicates that the liquida-
tion is not universally pressing, but is
confined TO individuals here and there.
Buyers Take the stock.
There are always buyers ready to take
up the stock offered which shows the
converse OF the proposition. and indicates
that there Is no real money pressure in
Washington beyond the natural con-
servatism Of the banks az such a time as
the present.
Washington in other lines than stock
trading is probably In the most pros
porous period Of its history. A large
dealer in merchandise said during the
week that his business was In greater
volume this month than at any time
since he entered mercantile life, a quarter
Of a century ago. The hotels are filed.

The pessimist sees a financial panic
coming. and he has a dozen items I'm
which 20 draw a parallel between 1907 and

The foe Of the Roosevelt administration
talks pretty much In the same way. He
keeps on asserting that the President and
his advisers are responsible for the fusn-
cial troubles In the country. and points
out that there can possibly be no perma-
nent improvement until after the next
Presidential election.
