N. Y. BANKS LOSE CASH
Decline of S19,946,267 Reported for
Week

NEW YORK. May lit Is obvious that
the extent of the operations of the New
York Federal Reserve Bank in connection
with payments TO the gold fund OF the
Federal Reserve lystem obscures and
overshadows the traceable movements Of
funds and as explained at intervals Of
late. Fridays currency reports are sub
mltted rs matter of routine. Even
under ordinary financial conditions the So
called known movements OF funds cover
only up to the close of business on Thurs
day.
Indications this week are of n small loss
by the banks on interior movement, in
creased by losses of the clearing house in
stitutions Of s11.o70,OOO to the New York
Federal Reserve Bank and Si,596,000 to The
Subtreasury, an apparent total net loss Of
| $16.9iG,267
This total includes transfers to San Fran
cisco in connection with exports of gold to
Japan Of SSS76,00O. compared with 81
| 262 900 the previous week and Si,500000
| the week before The gold exports are for
| the account Of several prominent japanese
| financial institutions in this city which have
| branches in San Francisco.

LONDON STOCK MARKET
Feeling Is More Confident-Americans
Are Firm

LONDON. May 11.--An improvement In
the political situation in Russia was re-
SponSiblc for a more confident feeling on
the stock Exchange today
Generally the undertone showed increased
stability. hut trading remained dull and
changes in prices were slight.
The gilt-edged section was Irregular. but
lower in the main. Notwithstanding the fact
that money was easy. Investors were re-
served in their attitude, although selling
was Ineligible.
Allied bonds were slow. Russians were
heavy. the poor position of exchange, which
is now around the lowest price on record
offsetting the better news from Petrograd
Following more encouraging advices from
New York, the American group was firmer
Canadian Pacifics moved in sympathy with
Yankees and were cheerful. Having beer
oversold. Grand Trunks also gained ground
but alterations were narrow.
