M'ADOO MAKES ANSWER
TO BANKERS REQUEST
-Four Local Institutions Given Ex-
tension of Time for Repayment
of Tax Deposit Money.
Others Are Ordered to Return the
Legal Requirement of 90 Per Cent
Before September 20.
BY I. A. FLEMING.

Secretary McAdoo this morning made
answer to the request of the national
banks of this city holding deposits OF
tax money, in reply to their request
that the 20 per cent repayment, due
July Is, be further extended.
Banks reporting their individual re-
serves up to or better than the legal
requirements of IS per cent on deposits
were ordered to make repayment be-
fore September 90. Four banks whose
legal reserve was reported below the
legal requirements were given further
extension until November Is. There
was no explanation as to the reason
for the action taken.
This being the 18th of the month. and
the goth, the limit date set tor re-
payment, coming on Sunday, the banks
called upon to return tax money nave
really but one business day in which
to act.
The total amount of tax money re-
deposited with the banks was about
s3,00O,00O. The repayment. therefore
requires about 100000, less the per
centage of the four institutions whicn
were given extensions.
Repayment of tax money due Angus!
Is to the Treasury has been deferred
until November Is.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
CHICAGO.

CHICAGO. September 1S.-Strength
Of prices at Liverpool tended today to
lift the wheat market here. Buying
power. however, seemed dormant, and 1t
took but little selling by commission
houses to cause a quick reaction. Of
ferings. though, were soon absorbed.
and when shorts tried to cover they
found the market bare. After starting
Y to 1 higher. values suffered a de-
cided setback. but then rallied COM
pletely.
Corn appeared to be governed wholly
by wheat. Trade was light. The open
ing. which varied from the same as
last night to X higher, was followed
by a general decline. All OF the losses
were subsequently wiped out.
Oats had no independent action. For
the time being, export inquiry seemed
at standstill. -.
Reports that France was bidding for
wheat gave additional help to the bulls.
The, close was nervous, u to 1ss net
higher.
Some European inquiry for small lots
counted against the bears. The close
for corn was unsettled at net advance

nit of the reopening of the New York

game abroad will tend to make foreign
Investors less anxious to sell their
Americans" about their only really
profitable investments, so that .deluge
Of liquidation is no longer antici-
pated.
