EXERT EVERY EFFORT TO OVER.
COME LACK OF CURRENCY IN
COUNTRY.
GRAIN SHIPMENTS IMPROVE
COTTON MOVEMENT SERIOUSLY
CHECKED ev LACK OF SMALL
BILLS.

New York. Nov. 10. - The leading
New York banks were exerting them.
selves actively yesterday to meet the
demands Of their country correspond
ents and depositors for currency. They
declare that the suggestions made
from several Western sources that
they are not meeting legitimate de-
mands for currency from the West are
entirely unfounded, and that they are,
on the contrary, taking every practica.
BILE measure to aid the West and
South. Special favors are shown to
the small interior banks where there
is no clearing house, because it is
realized that they are not in posi-.
ton to count upon cooperation and
the use of clearing house certificates,
as is the case Of communities having
number of strong institutions.
Cotton Movement Checked.
It is admitted that the cotton move.
ment is seriously checked by the lack
of small bills and silver to pay the
small growers and by the inability OF
the Southern banks ~ handle the inn
mense volume of business accumulat,
ed at Southern points. The grain ship
ments are in better shape, owing to
the gold secured by the banks of St.
Paul and Minneapolis, and arrange
ments for paying cash in New York
on grain bills.
The aid which is being rendered to
the situation is indicated by the fact
that the total engagements of gold
have now reached $4O,OO0,0O0. The to.
tai was materially increased yesterday
by the announcement of several pur.
chases which had not heretofore been
made public.
Will Relieve Pressure. -.
OF the amount engaged the sum Of
$21,311,O0O has already arrived, in
GLIDING s12.361,15O which was laid
down from the Lusitania yesterday
morning. This gold will afford the ba-
sis Of nearly $20O,O00,0OO in loans and
will materially assist the New York
banks in their efforts to meet the pres
sure for currency throughout the
country.
The fact that practically 100000, 900
in currency disappeared from the New
York banks within week, as indi.
Gated by the last bank statement, is
considered sufficient evidence that the
New York banks are do.ig their best
to meet tire demand upon them. The
total drain of last week Is computed
upon the basis Of an actual loss in
cash of about $S0,O00,O00, in the face
of the fact that $3O00O,O00 of public
money had been poured into the New
| York banks.
Millions Sent West.
It is not possible to determine what
proportion of this $6O,OO0.O00 went
West and what proportion went into
boards in New York. 1t is estimated
in some quarters that about half O
the amount was shipped to Western
banks, but other bankers put the pro
i portion somewhat lower, leaving tn
balance to be accounted for by hoard
ing. That New York banks are dom.
their best to meet the situation wal
tersely put by a prominent bank off
cial yesterday when he said that New
York had convulsed all the principa
markets of Europe and forced thei
discount rates to points higher thai
they have reached In some cases in
generation in order to obtain the gol
to sustain credit in tbs country.

GRAIN on THE way TO MARKET
PLAN ADOPTED BY MINNESOTA
BANKS TO MOVE CROPS IS
- EFFECTIVE.

st. Paul, Nov. 10.-According to re
ports received from various places
over the Northwest the credit scheme
which was inaugurated by bankers in
Minnesota to facilitate the movement
Of grain seems to have had the desired
effect, although the plan has not been
operative long enough to determine to
just what extent it will serve the pur.
pose. The farmers and dealers are
being urged to cooperate with the
bankers and large dealers as we'll as
the railroad and steamship lines.
THE effect of the scheme. which
was started last Tuesday," said q
prominent st. Paul banker yesterday.
seems to have produced better con.
ditions with regard to the movement
of grain. Although the plan has been
in operation only a couple of days, 1t
is being adopted largely both by farm.
ers and local dealers. There sn)uld
be movement of grain eastward for
export, which will greatly relieve
financial conditions in general in this
country.
1.-THE idea was to urge the farmers
and small dealers to utilize more gen.
orally an exchange Of credit rather
than an actual exchange of currency.
That is to say. it was suggested and
urged that country bankers and mer.
chants should honor checks by giving
credit for them, drawn on grain buy
ers. BY doing this grain could be sold
and shipped over the railways to the
lakes"
1t was stated at the Great Northern
freight Offices yesterday that the
movement of grain toward the Head of
the Lakes during the week had been
about normal. although there was a
slight falling of from the standard Of
previous years.
