TULSA'S CLEARINGS
AGAIN SET RECORD
Show Gain of 1884 Per Cent
Increase Over Last Year;
Total $5,5S3,000.

Tulsa's bank clearings for the week
ending yesterday noon established
new record for the city and sent the
prosperity Indicator far above the
So, 200, mark. Tulsa led every
city in the state, with the exception
of oklahoma city, in the amount of
clearings, and in the matter of gains
over the corresponding period of last
year set a new statewide mark, the
clearings of the past week in this city
being gain of 1884 over the same
week of 1915.
The highest mark eV-r established
by the purely clearances thru the To-
cal clearing house for one week was
that of two weeks ago, when the total
of $4,S37,370 was reached, but even
this gave way yesterday when Man
ager Roscoe Adams of the clearing
house association announced that the
total clearings for the week just end
ed were S5,5S3, ,609, or 1901, ,566 less
than the transactions of the Okla
homa City clearing house for the same
period.
This mark of S5,5S3.6O9 stands as
nearly a zoo per cent gain over the
same week of 1915 when but $780,
S11 was cleared thru the local house,
a figure which at that time indicated
gain over the preceding months by
slight margins.
Oklahoma City's clearing house yes
terday announced a clearance of
I$7,OS5,175, which with the clearings
of October and November represent
an increase of 121 per cent over the
corresponding period of 1915. This
record is badly beaten by the Tulsa
clearings which in the same months
have hardly ever fallen to less than
$50 per cent increase over the corre-
spending periods of last year.
