decided to make the change gradu-
ally without any announcement. The
officials are equally noncommital re-
garding their policy of loaning
money, but it is known that cash is
much freer than few weeks ago.
Money is now available for almost
any legitimate enterprise of not too
great magnitude, but in most in
stances good collateral is demanded
/ for security, whereas before the sus-
pension of specie payment it was
customary to lend money upon per-
sonai notes The bankers are real
! ~ as anxious as anybody for condi-
tions to be such as to justify them
in lending money freely again, for
the reason that each of the large in
stittltions in the city has from $780,
600 to S2,000,000 IL cash on mana
which it is paying with interest with
out receiving any return. TO show
how much more cash the banks have
than is actually needed, the Traders
bank received 100000 in bank
notes last week from Washington is
sued against the Panama bonds the
bank purchased, and none of these
notes have been put in circulation
and Aaron Kuhn, president of the
bank, says that probably none of
them will leave the vaults until the
wheat movement begins next sum-
mer.
