Speculative attention revert ed to special causes affecting Individual stocks, | and to-day's largest deliveries and widest | movements were in this class. There was no evidence of further urgent pressure of 1liqui- dation, and call loans were made on the Stock | Exchange at 5% per cent and in exceptional cases at 5 per cent. This was partiy due to the release of funds by the liquidation of stocke | gy ey kg U of the speculative ‘dulimess. It is ciear that | guch funds as;bave come o New York have | been attracted by higher interest rates the sources from which they have. been ‘n-n show the effect in a tightening Of thelr own | money rates, &s volume of credits has been more diffused than | reduced ‘all_street was obli; to _accept | the Secre- | the intimation recelved to-day t tary of the had ent money situstion in New York did not’ re- quire action for relief by his department. The | fact is beginning to be better understood that any release of treasury holdings now will in- | crease the necessity of drawing upon Govern- | ment deposits with the bank e the | Panama canal payment. Insofar as the pay- | mént shall be made by drawing on funds act- ually in the treasury, it will g0 10 increase | the available cash. -As to whether this cash goes abroad in the shape of goid exports or re- | Tains here must depend upon the Haternational exchange situstion at the time. It is clear that these payments will be available to for- eigners, but they will nevertheless increase the supply of lcanable funds, and may be an actual relief to the New York money market by bor- rowing. To-day’s report of the exports of do- mestic products for February gave a good in- dication of the growth of the trade balance | in our favor, showing os it did an Increase | | compared with February of last year of over $20,000,000. Corn exparts. play a considerable part in this showing, but the increase in value | of cotton exports compared with February of iast year amounts to the subetantial Sgure of $12,654,565. The culmination of the speculative rise in cotion and the heavy selling at the re- action give promise of continided repienishment | of our foreign credits by the outgo of cotton. 1As for the immediate money situation, the sab- | | treasury yesterday took another half million | dollars from the market. There was a de- | posit of $200,000 to-day for transfer to New | Orleans, and 'a small sub-treasury debit bal- | ance at the clearing-bouse foreshadowed an- | other heavy requirement by to-morrow's state- | ment. There is some anxiety lest the payment on Monday of $20,000,000 of Standard Ofl div! disarrange the money market, 1t hus been shown that the funds collected for purpose have been out in loans and will heve to be recalled. The stock market ciosed dull and weak.
