The Financier will say:

exports of five and half millions of gold TO
Europe the Associated banks reported Sat

of e,947, 900. Their total net cash holdings
now nearly S375 000 600, by far the largest on
record. and their excess surplus above the 20

necessary 10 go back to the period succeeding
the 1898 panic. The banks in accordance with

clearinghouse banks and OF trust companies and

the reserve OF the state banks not reporting
through the clearinghouse is 2S.56 per cent and
OF the trust Companies 1.41 per cent To just
what extent gold exports will continue cannot
be stated but the amount matters but little at
the present time, considering the huge volume
of idle funds In the banks.
