COLLECTING RESERVE.
New York Trust Companies Prepare
 to Meet New Requirements.

New York, June 1b.-In addition to s3.ss9, 900 cash reported on Saturday as having been gained by the trust com panies last week, those institutions will have to add s22.0O000O to their cash re- serves within the next fortnight in or der to comply with the requirements of the new cash reserve law. which be- comes partially effective on July next
 The law requires 10 per cent. cash re- serve on that date, with per cent. ad- ditonal on February 1, 1909 In order to comply with these demands the com panies were arranging today to make large cash withdrawals from their de- posltory banks this week and next.
 In addition to the cash required the companies will for the next slx mofths be still governed by the provisions of the old law to the extent of having to maintain per cent. reserve in bonds or on deposit with some bank. Virtual ly all the companies have arranged for the inauguration of the new order of things. so that t will occasion little difficulty when the 10 per cent. reserve system takes effect. Virtually all of the total deposits held by tho trust companies will he subject to the 10 per cent. reserve requirement on July l.
 Of the 1853, 500 total deposits re- ported last Saturday, it was figured out today that sS37, 7,OOo,O GOO would be OK posed to the cash reserve requirements. l The law calls for the l5 per cent cash reserve on all deposits held hy a trust company. "excluslve of moneys held by Y in trust, which are not made paya- ble under the conditions of the trust within thirty days, and also exclusive of time deposits not payable within 30 days, represented by certificates show
 ing the amount of the deposit, the date of issue, and the date when due, and also exclusive of deposits which are secured by outstanding unmatured
 bonds issued by the state of New
 York"

Fears of a stampede for Roosevelt were still seri- ously entertained by many of them and those who were not thus affected were timid in regard to the possibility of adopting a radical platform. Nine out of ten traders expressed the opinion tfat 1t was best to leave stocks alone until after the nominations by the re- publican convention. This same opin- ion probably prevails among the spec ulative community throughout the country, and it accounts to some ex- tent for the stagnation in the stock market.
