NEW YORK, Feb. 1.—The statement of the Assoclated Banks for the week ending, to-day shows: g Loans $889,531,500, increase $19,589,100; de- Dosits £075,807,000, increase $26,330,200; circu- | lation $31,865,200, increase $348,700; legal tend- ers $77,607,400, increase $949,500; specle $192,- 815,200, increuse $6,924,000; reserves $270,622 | 600, increase $7,873,600; reserve required $243,- 999,250, increase $6,582,550; surplus $26,623,350, increase $1,290,950. The Financier says: This week's statement of the New York Assoclated Banks shows the very satisfactory gain of $7,873,500 in cash, exceeding the amount of increase as estimated from the traceable movement of money from | the interfor and through the subtreasury by $1.754,100. Since the beginning of the year the gains in cash, as officially reported by the statement, have amounted to $35,013,800, while the estimated increase has been $69,984,600, As has been the case in recent weeks previou Iy the. gain last week was largely In specie, this amounting to $6,924.000. Loans were ex- panded last week by $16,589,100, reflecting in some degree the large borrowing during the week on time and also the activity in com- mercial paper. The deposits show the some- | what *extraorainary increase “of $26,530,200, which amount, it may be noted, is only $1,132,- 400 below the total of the gain {n loans and in cash; hence the statement in this respect very closely proves. Last vear, it will be remem- bered, there were made during the latter part of January and early in February some quite notable gains in deposits by the banks. In the | week ending January 19, 1901, for example, the increase In this item was $36,451,000, and in the week ending February 2 the gain was $32,494,500. By March 2 the unprecedented maximum of $£1,012,514,000 was recorded, an increase since the beginning of that year of $158,324,000. This year thus far the gain in deposits has been comparatively small, amounting to $65,127,200. The surplus re. serve last week gained only $17,200,50, by rea- son of the large reserve requirements of $6,562,550. The surplus now, stands at $26,- 623,350, against $24,838,825 af the correspond- ing date in 1001. Comparisons of changes in the items of loans, specle and deposits of ten of the larger banks show a net gain of $15,- 300,000 in loans, or $4,200,000 less than the of- ficially reported increase; a net gain of §3,500,- 000 in specie or about $3,500,000 less than the increase shown by the statement, and a net gain of $18,100,000 in deposits, or-$3,200,000 be- low the officially reported increase. Two Mor- gan banks show gains of $10,000,000 in loans, a loss of $1,800,000 in specle, and a gain of $8,000,000 in’ deposits. London Market.

WHEAT—The San Francleco market was fairly active on call, but prices showed little change. The foreign markets were featureless. Chicago was a shade firmer, but inactive, though there was some buying on estimates of a decrease in the visible supply. The best buy- ing was for account of the Southwest. Bolton, De Ruyter & Co.'s private letter trom Chicago said: about a stand-off for the week and a small decrease in the visible is not unlikely. Broom- hall reports English markets as steady, a bear- ish feature being large Australian shipments. Export for the-day is small. Further snow, followed by a cold wave over the winter wheat sections, {s predicted, but the wheat seems to be well covered everywhere and safe from harm. Here the market was rather heavy early, but turned strong on covering of lécal shorts. Volume of outside speculative busine: is lees and the market is tending toward dull- ness. We think there is a fairly liberal short interest in the market, and while we see noth- ing bullish in the situation, scalping markets are likely.” Spot wheat—Shipping, $1 07%; milling, $1 10 @1 121 ver ctl.

OATS—The week closed on a firm ani un- changed market. Bolton, De Ruyter & Co.'s ‘ Market is quiet and steady. General interest in the May option is apparently gradually being eliminated as far as new trading is concerned. If the concen- | trated holdings are as large as generally esti- mated there must, short interest of considerable magnitude. Of provement reported in the cash situation, the | COUrse some of this s undoubtedly against sales of oats in country elevators. Interest in July and September oatss Is quite active.

Chicago wires to Bolton, De Huyter & Co. say: ‘‘As in wheat the market was rather soft early, but rallied and closed firmer under cov- ering of shorts. Advices from Southwest con- tinue bullish, both as regards crop anl de- mand, and while receipts are small here the demand on the whole is poor, although a lot of 100,000 bushels was taken yesterday for shipment to the seaboard.

There is ro reason why there should be any difference, and if the plans now being matured by the Exchange aye car- _ried out there will be very littls confusion over the quotations hereafter.
