RESERVE CONDITION
OF BANKS STRONGER
Increase Of 80. 200, 900 in Gold
Holdings Reported by
Federal Board.
EARNING ASSETS DROP

WAsHrNGToN. June 3.-The weekly
statement Of the Federal Reserve Board
indicates increases during the week OF
about so,20o.o 900 In the gold holding.
of the banks and OF si,10o. 900 In their
total reserves.
Earning assets decreased $1,000, 900
net bank deposits SIC, 400. 900, while
Government deposits increased abou,
S5,900,o00. The reserve condition o.
the banks accordingly shows greater
strength than the week before.
Considerable gains in gold reserve are
reported by tho Boston. New York. Chi
cago and San Francisco banks. In the
cnse or the Boston and Chicago banks
this gain Is due apparently for tho
most part to liquidation Of municipal
warrants and Increases in Government
deposits; In the case OF the New York
bank the effect of these two factors is
largely onset by the larger decline In the
net amount of bank deposits.
San Francisco reports the return 10
the bank OF moro than $4,000 900 Of
gold following the redemption Of Fcd-
cral reserve notes by the Federal re-.
serve agent. Reserves other than gold
declined about $4,000 0 largely tho re-
suit or the decrease shown by the New
YORK bank. Some OF this loss is offse,
ny an Increase OF $4,000, 900 in the
banks gold reserve.
