NEW YORK, April 22.—The Financler says: The New York banks added $3,684,700 to their cash holdings last week, making a galn of about $6,500,000 since April 8. Within the same | perlod reserve requirements, owing to the shrinkage of $10,65,700 in deposits, decreased about §2,650,000, so that the excess reserve has expanded $15,000,000 in the comparatively short space mentiorel. This change, which, of course, tends to an easier condition of the money market, has been brought about in part through the resumption of the inteflor move- ment In this direction and by the liquidation in loans, which bas been a choice feature of the statements for several weeks past. The loan item discloses the faot that since the opening of April a contraction of between $19,- 000,000 and 320,000,000 has taken place. Ob- vicusly, In the face of a showing like this, the outlook as regards money rates becomes very much more settled, and as the factors stlil prominent the future holds out the prom- ise of still easier conditions. The current state- ment, however, when studied in detail, presents some anomalous features. Thus, one institu- tion, which has strong foreign connections, has decreased its loans no less than 39,000,000, and its deposits and specle accounts show corre- sponding changes. This may have occurred in the usual course of business, but the sterling loans made in this center a fortnight since and the imminency of the settlement of the Philippine indemnity may not have been with- out_influenc | The finan ing of strial combinations and the settlement of heavy raliroad deals are re- sponsible for some of the unlooked for changes in the individual institutions from week to week, but as these are now generally provided exhibit of totals may be emplation. Taking the stat in a broad sense, it means. that if anything the losses sustained pring or it may rmation che . but the latter is improb- g both to exhaustion of ble ma- terial and the indisposition to encou As for ulation tk icting featu om_ forelgn money NEW YORK, April 22—The Commercial Ad- | vertiser's London financial cablegram says: The markets here were generally qulet and firm to-day, but Americans were more active than recen: hardening _distinctly.
