There were points of aggressive strength which en- couraged malntenance of prices, but the c f an unfavorable bank stat continuance of profit-taking stocks which have recently < in price. On -publi- bank statement the whole mar- and net gains were preserved in only a few cases. The liquid was by no means heavy and the bears covered short con- tracts e a rally from the low p Is of the reported alii- ance, ennsylvania ai New York S ose stocks, but the 25 tement tace presented an e: ary condition of irs.

In fact, the easing of money during the latter part of the week ws that the re- Mef is already at hand comes in_large part from the releas funds that had been accumulated for the disbursement of semi-an- nual dividends. It is aiso taken into consider- ation that interior points are better plied With money than ever before, so that the con- viction is held in banking circles that tight- pess in the New York money market would bring funds from interior points to New York. The action of the stock market this week has justified the confidence of those Who bought Becurities last week In the peilef that oppor- tunity would be offered to realize profits quick- e expected demand for stocks was, forth- but it was so freely fed with® offer- ccumulated ect on pris ast week that the strength- was offset and the tide favor of reaction.

But,in spite of these factors of strength in thegeneral out- look the tendemcy toward reaction in the rail- ways prevailed on account of the recent condl- tions.

TLe casier money conditions in London brought large buyiug of stocks in New York for Lon- don account, until money rates there began to harden again. The week's trading on the Stock Exchange has been distinguished by some reawakening of interest in industrial Issues, as the market for railroad stocks fell into dullness on the reaction. The older dividend-paying industrials heve been favorites, but some of the newer ore &nd metal combinations have also shown signs of life, notably the coppers.

Utah Minin 4 Union Pacific | | YORK, July 8.—The Financler says The assoctated banks of New York, if their statement for the week ending July 8 is to be accepted as correct, have less surplus cash | on hand than at any time (with the exception | of September, 1895) since the 183 panic. But the current exhibit is so complicated by inci- dents due to July disbursements and also by the system of averages employed in making it that its totals would not possess the significance | that otherwisemightattach to them. The loss of | about $10,600,000 in cash, for instance, IS very much more than known operations called for, and the expansion of nearly $7,000,000 in loans must reflect brevious weeks' business. The demands for accommodation within the past two days certainly did not necessitate this vio- lent rie. As the statement stands it plainly indicates that every dollar of the loans has been taken from the banks in cash, and withdrawal | of deposits has been a similar operation. Mani- festly this is an impossible contingency. A more detailed anation ehows that of the loss in cash the National City and the Chase National banks are responsible for the entire reduction, the National City's loss having been about $6,000.000, and its increase in loans more than 6,000,000, it is interesting to note In this connection that whereas the average reserve of all the banks s now 2.5 per cent, a loss of 1 per cent. the reserve, exclusive 'of the _institution named, s 26 per cent. In other words, sixty-two of the sixty-three banks have within a small fraction of 1 per cent of as much money as reported at the open- ing of July. The refusal of call money to ad- vance perceptibly in the face of the showing made by the banks proved that the situation is pretty well understood, and that no fears are entertained as to the future. During the next week the banks will gain heavily in cash, only on Government account, but from as well. It is perhaps no exag- geration to say that at the close of business Saturday the various institutions were in much better shape in every way than thelr statements would imply. The maintenance of a 4 per cent on call money is of itself enough to in- duce a movement of currency in this direction.
