1t is said that Huey fired the shot that

closest attention. made 1t quite evident
that the representatives of the women's

The Financier will say:
1.-THE New York clearing house banks.
the non-member banks and trust com
panies decreased their loans last week
nearly tWenty-one and three-quarters mil
lions of dollars, while their deposits
showed a loss of thirty and three-quarters
millions The cash holdings of both
banks and trust companies decreased only
three and a half millions. so that the
banks and the outside institutions not at
filiated with the clearing house were
stronger in reserve at the end of the
week than at the beginning
.'The clearing house bank statement.
taking the actual conditions as a basis,
showed a loss of $12O55,9O0 in loans; a
decrease of S2.424 800 in cash holdings.
and a contraction of S1o, 4oo,GOO In de-
posits. The loss in deposits. of course,
lowered reserve requirements in a sum
greater than the real decrease in cash,
so that surplus rose $1,439,6Oo standing
Saturday at $11,334, $50.
THE preliminary estimates of cash
holdings indicated a gain by the banks OF
about 81. 100000. but this gain was more
than Offset by Withdrawals by gold ex-
ports, which were made after the publica-
ton of the previous weeks statement.
Banks seem to be gaining steadily from
the interior, and with anything like frm
rates for money the tide will probably
hold in that direction.
THE state banks and trust companies
not affiliated with the clearing house De
creased their loans last week $9645. 900.
their cash holdings fell S1.3oO,OOO and
their deposits $15. 424, 400. The movement
of gold outw 2rd since the LIST OF January
amounted at the end of the current week
to approximately $1OO,OOO,On.
