General Trade Conditions.

Dun's Review of Trade says; Bank
exchanges this week at all leading
cities in the United States aggregated
$685. 1902 ,65S, a loss of 1.9 per cent,
as compared with the same week last
year. The somewhat Indifferent COM
parison with a year ago is due to the
falling off at New York city, where a
loss of SO per cent appears, and also
to more or less contraction at Boston,
Philadelphia, Louisville, New Orleans
and San Francisco. The prevailing
dullness in the leading speculative
markets no doubt accounts for most
of the decreases at New York. On the
other hand, nearly all of the other
cities included in the statement report
showed gains.

The Financier says: Despite the
fact that the New York clearing house
banks decreased their cash holdings
$4,O42, 900 during the week, rejecting
the loss of gold exports, the institu-
lions reported an excess above the 20
per cent minimum reserve on Satur-
day. amounting to $13, 556,200. This
strengthening of position was brought
about by the familiar operation OF de-
creasing loan commitments, the
shrinkage in the item for the week
having been $35,55O,OOO. 1t is quite
probable, in view of the prevailing
rates. that outside institutions are
lending literally in this market, as the
trust companies of New York also re-
ported for the week a shrinkage of
S14,553,2OO in their loans.
The decrease in loans was reflected
directly in the shrinkage of $50, 445, 900
in deposits. This lessened reserve re-
quirements of something over $4,000
600. so that not only was the loss in
cash counteracted by the surplus, but
rose in the amount just stated. Con-
sidering the continued loss of gold
through exports the associated bank
ers are in a remarkably. strong posi-
ton. They hold 100000 less cash
than reported the first week in Feb
ruary, but their surplus reserve is to
be considered as normal for this sea-
son.
