The Financier will say:
Cash continues to flow to New York In
unceasing volume, the clearing house
banks having gained for thes week ending
January 13, taking the report of actual
600 in spec e and legals. The greater part
of this amount was derived from interior
receipts, although the banks were gain
ers also in tneir or erations with the sub
treasury. Loans showed an expansion OF
$3s, $4,000. and this. together with the
pansion of $64.314, 600 in net deposits. The
Increased deposits called for additional re-
serve requirements amounting to $1o,O0Os-
600, but even so, the cash gain was SO
large that $7,711 200 was added to excess
reserve, bringing the surplus above the
is very much above the average ct this
season of the year. The aggregate cash
reserve Of the New York clearing house
members, counting both banks and trust
companies, Isl now approximately $4o2,
OO0 600. the greater part OF which is in Tie
in sight to indicate a cessation OF the
flow of money to this center. with the
prospect that excess reserves Will go

against this stock was said to come from
Berlin. Norfolk and Western was heavy
despite yesterdays announcement Of SUBJ

Recent indications that trade had slack
ened its pace after the acceleration
toward the end of last year seemed to
be borne out by the report Of an in
crease in the surplus of freight cars of
nearly DOO0. and by a decrease In the
country's bank clearings during the last

are usual at this period Of the year. were
