New York, Dec. 2-As a result of the
liquidation In the stock market the bank
loans showed little change In today's
statement The actual statement. which
gives figures up to the close Of business
Friday night, showed an increase In
loans of a,7l2,OOO, a decrease in surplus
reserves of $4.sSs 900 and an increase in
net demand deposits OF S,4l30oo The
average statement showed a reduction In
loans Of 81 .5l6.ooo, an increase in surplus
reserves OF sS.oSs,54O and an increase In
net demand deposits OF H0,2oo.OOo.
These Gigures are about what Wall
street expected. They show that the SELL
ton has not been drastic from the stand
point of the investor. They tell more OF
the same story told by the statements of
the previous Saturday.
Loans are not reduced in the state
ment Of the previous Saturday because
the selling had been almost entirely for
short accounts. 1t Il true that money
loaned in Wall street is for the account
OF Western banks and therefore all the
reduction OF loans would not be noted In
the New York statement.
Stocks acted today as they usually do
before a holiday. Attendance on the
floor was light and but few. customers
were In commission houses.
Steel was in good demand from profess
sionals and held steady within a narrow
range. Corn products and Locomotive
were among stocks well bought.

believed carried any influence with It and for this
reason the speculative world was in no mood 10
take a line Of wheat to sell short and stand
on il for a profit.
Spectators were changing their position ,lmost
continuously in the trade and there were MANY who
lost big money in attempt to keep within hsiling
distance Of the speculative procession
Some OF the conservative men in wheat believe
there many possibilities surrounding the political
situation across the waters II Is believed there Ia
possibility Of the ending Of the conflict and that
the stiff stand Of Great Britain and her allies more
than likely will bring around an additional offer
from the German Emperor favoring the opposition
more than the first peace proposal.
The United States government report crnhrms the
claims that the crop underestimated and also
that the surplus Of the United States and Canada IA
large with receipts and stocks liberal and tbreshinu
reports from Canada confrmatory Of maximum esti-
mates Of yield there.
