Russia After the War.

The seventy -nNe-mlll1On dollar loan
made to Russia last week is an evil
dence of the faith of the banking fra
ternity in the future Of the great en-
pire of the north.
The regeneration of the cars ma
ton Is the subject of a study made by
York city, indicating plainly the forces
that, with prohibition, have worked
for the development of untold and un-
precedented activities in Russia-per-
haps for the awakening of a great
giant that has never known his
strength.
Since July. 1914" says the Guaranty
Trust Company. millions of Russians
who never before left their village
communities have travelled thousands
of miles, visiting great cities. meeting
and matching experiences with their
fellows from all parts of the empire.
Over million have been prisoners in
Germany, observing Germany's COM
mercial. industrial and civic efficiency.
When these men return to their homes
they should take with them thoughts
and desires and ideals never dreamed
Of in Russia before. The very losses
of the empire in the present war may
mean her great ultimate gain.
The tremendous effort being put
forth to manufacture munitions and
supplies for Russia's armies should
mean the establishment of a domestic
manufacturing organization incompar-
ably superior to any that existed be-
fore the war.
"The decrease in state revenue due
to the abolition of the vodka traffic has
been accompanied by an unparalleled
increase in savings bank deposits and
efficiency of labor.
THE withdrawal of the Teutonic or
ganization that, before the war, prac-
tically conducted the industry and
finance of Russia at first almost para
lyzed the operation of the empire, but
taught the people the folly of depend
ing in peace too much on citizens of a
foreign country which might become
at any time an enemy power.
Russian exports in the year 1913
were 1,520, 100000 rubles, a ruble be-
ing worth about 513a cents in Amer
ican money under normal conditions. as
against an average Of 1,046, 800, 900
rubles between 1903 and 1907. Rus
sian imports during 1913 were 1874
100000 rubles, as against an average
of 723, 1900 900 rubles between 1903 and
1907.
I'm spite of the revolution and the
Japanese war the gold reserve in the
treasury and the state bank increased
from approximately 1.100, 600. 900 rrbles
in January, 1904, to approximately p
175. 900. 900 rubles on December 81. 1913
deposits in Russian banks and state
savings banks increased almost stead
lily from 2.5oo. 900, 900 ruoles in 1904 to
almost 5000. 100000 rubles in 1913 In
the same period the number of state
savings banks increased from 6,417 to
3. 160 and the lumber of depositorS from
4,S54,00 to s,597. 900.

German Exchange Weak.

Foreign conditions were clearly re-

exchange to Germany, which suffered
the greatest depreciation ever record
ed in this market. declining to 71%4

ascribed to sales of finance bills to

ported was the proposed loan to the

Stocks Reach Higher Level
Through Professional Trades

NEW YORK. March 1s.-Stocks in
general and specialties in particular
made irregular progress to higher
levels in the course of the weeks ac-
tive operations. but manifested some
heaviness in the final session. Trading
averaged more than 100000 shares for
each of the five full days, but war is
sues. such as Crucible Steel Westing-
house and Baldwin Locomotive, to-
gether with allied shares in the equip
ment and oil divisions. contributed a
very considerable proportion of the
whole.
The advance derived the greater part
of its impulse from professional
sources, traders espousing the con-
structive side on the better feeling over
Mexican affairs. Developments in the
European war zones were followed
with increased interest, but seemed tc
exert little influence marketwise.

BY I. A. FLEMING.

The unprecedented gain in bank de-
posits all over the country, with Wash-
, ington no exception, is causing COM
ment very generally. Moreover. New
York and other central reserve city
bankers who find ia per cent about
the best rate they can obtain on loans'
are becoming tired of paying per
cent on balances of other banks. and
there is talk of reducing the rate OF in
terest to 1 Il per cent or even lower.
This would not be to the liking OF
correspondents, many of whom are
keeping large balances in the central
reserve cities just for the purpose of
making the 2 per cent interest. Some
trust companies paying per cent IN
terest on deposits, are doing the same
thing, putting too heavy burden on
the big banks.
So large is the supply of funds in
New York to the credit of outside banks
that exchange on that city is now
selling at a discount, even in western
cities.
banks during the past week snow thaI
very materially in the last two months,
suggesting thrift and savings by peo-
pie who do not do business with the
banks.
These savings come in large quanti-
ties from different post offices to the
capital and are distributed among ma
tional banks. One or two trust COM
panies also have postal savings de-
posits.
January and February are real thrift
months and it is evident from the large
gains in savings deposits all over the
country that the campaign for thrift
has been effective and on a large scale.
1t hardly can be said now that busi-
ness men and manufacturing interests
are not using money in their business.
for on every side there are evidences
of material prosperity and money is
being employed freely, but the supply
has increased to such proportions that
bankers are seeking desirable paper.
high-grade bonds and good borrowers,
while the latter, realizing the position,
are also seeking their money at lower
rates of interest than the bankers want
to make.
Easy money has greatly added to the
building activities of Washington
Within the space of four squares in the
northwest apartment buildings are be-
ing erected that call for two or three
millions of dollars. A year ago the
funds for these investments were not
available in Washington.
