COMMERCIAL CALL
SPRING PLANTING
DRAWS UPON CASH

NEW YORK. March 1.-THE
Tightening of the worlds credit
facilities is the feature of the
present financial situation, and
that factor underlies the constraint
on the days stock market in New
York, although more superficial
influences also played part. That
in New York the banks are being
drawn upon to supply require
ments of the interior for currency
with the opening of the spring
planting period was shown by the
cash loss in the Saturday bank
statement This morning brought
fresh offerings of bonds by bank
ers who had made purchases or
new issues from the railroads with
additional employment of banking
funds implied in these operations.
Notwithstanding the purchase of
parts of these new bond issues
by foreigners. demands for remit
tances abroad are sufficient to
have turned rates of foreign ex-
change upward again. Time money
the banks are less eager bidders
for mercantile at recently prevail
ing rates. A 25 point rise in the
price of shares in the second in
size and importance of the New
York national banks was the in
cident of the day from which the
expectation of more profitable
business for banks might be ar
gued.
The recurrence of decision day
in the supreme court was cited
as a repressive influence during
the morning. There was little
improvement in that respect after
it became known that no decision
would be handed down in the
American tobacco case. Appre-
hension of an unfavorable decision
had been neutralized by the
strong advance in American to-
bacco securities.
One reason given for supporting
United States steel was the de-
duction tomorrow of the dividend
from the price of stock. amount
ing to 1s4 per cent, with the regu-
lar and the extra dividend last
declared The reported softness
of the pig iron market did not
depress United States steel.
Crop damage reports played a
part in the days market and labor
difficulties claimed their share of
attention by reason of the critical
stage of the negotiations between
the western railroads and the fire.
