The statement of banks and trust companies
of Greater New York, not reporting to the clear
ing house, shows that these @ I Institutions sit have
on hand, S101 ,lS9. 100, and loans amounting to
S943 959, 100.
The FinancIer Will say:
The statement of the associated banks of New
York city for the FIVE business days included in
the week ended September II showed very
large expansion in loans and deposits, with a
shrnkage of $1,000, 200 In cash. The result Of
the changes noted brought about decrease in
surplus reserve of S6,321, ,150, this being based
on actual conditions. and not averages. The de-
crease in cash had been anticipated, as the banks
are now for the first time this season losing
money to the interior notably to the south. for
crop moving purposes. The movement has been
very much delayed this year, but now that 1t
has started, it Is reasonable to suppose that the
banks Will report shipments to the interior for
some time TO come. The expansion of $3S 351.-
800 in loans. with a corresponding increase OF
$13, ,6S3, 500 in deposits, rather unexpected.
and can not be attributed altogether TO stock
exchange requirements. Money has been show
ing a rather higher degree of hrmness than noted
for time past, and while the surplus re-
serve based actual conditions is still $50. 420.-
625, some bankers look for a continued hardening
in rates. The summaries of the state banks
and trust companies in greater New York not
reporting TO the New York clearing house, show
very small changes in the totals for the week.
The cash reserve of the associated banks is
2S. ~ per cent the reserve OF trust companies is
81 SO per cent, of which 9.36 per cent is in the
form of cash in vault. and the reserve of the
state banks is 3066 per cent of which IL. II
per cent is in the form of cash in vaults. 1t
will be seen, therefore. that the strength of
the financial institutions of New York is still
on a very much higher average than usual.

Potatoes. onions and Vegetable.

There was a good Saturday demand for all
kinds of green produce and, although stocks
were greatly diminished by the active trading,
there still enough of nearly everything on
hand at the close to supply the market for at
least two days without any further arrivals
Choice green continued to bring fancy
prices and selected lots were closed out without
difficulty. but poor stocks could not be sold at
ALL and some receivers advised their shippers
not to forward anything that could not grade
as choice or fancy. Tomatoes and string beans
were about the most plentiful of the other
vegetables and of lots could be bought at
figures we'll below the inside quotations. Every
boat from the river brought additional supplies
of potatoes and onions into an already over
burdened market and, there no outlet
for the accumulated supplies, prices for both
articles were decidedly weak.

the total arrivals, would leave the amount of
horse hay very moderate quantity. There has
market during the week on account of the in
terruption caused by both Monday and We'd
nesday being legal holidays.
Under these conditions the market on horse
hay was strengthened up somewhat, and all
good grade offerings of wheat, wheat and oat,
and red oat offered for sale have very readily
prevailed. and the feeling has continued very
firm. Some fancy wheat hay that came In

Poultry and Game

The poultry market closed quite firm and
would have been practically bare at the end of
the day but for the fact that receipts were
unusually large for Saturday and consisted
chiefly of undesirable stock. such as small hens
and old ROSTERS. All other descriptions were
disposed of at stiff figures without any trouble
and the trade reported prospects good for a
continued firm market. Three cars of western
chickens were handled during the week and as
many more were reported close at hand yester-
day and scheduled for Mondays market
