Are Reported to Be Comfort
ably Within Limits of
Legal Reserve

National banks OF Los Angeles received last
night request from the comptroller OF the
currency at Washington for statement OF
condition at the close of business December !.
As the call had been expected In the regular
course for some time, the different institutions
quickly complied the required figures.
The statement given below is of special in-
terest on account OF the financial disturbance.
II was expected that the ten national banks

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.--The prices of stocks
shifted many timee during the course of the

The market was rather greatly depressed in
the carly part Of the day and manifested Vigor-
Gus strength in the latter part The early
depression was traceabe In part to the effect
of selling for foreign account and the unfa-
vorable view taken aboard OF the contents Oh

sions.
The Japanese incident seemed to be serious

stocks were center Of weakness. successive
dividend reductions OF different copper mining
stocks have WON upon the courage OF holders.
The United States Steel stocks shared In the
depression to some extent, especially the pre-
forred stocks. The weakness OF American
Smeiting was attributed 10 fears cs rea@iic- @
ton In the dividtn nd rate. but Its greatest
weakness was shown after the announcement
Of the declaration OF the regular DIVIDEND Oh
