j played uo special features unles a fair tone
following some iIlsap|Ndiitinent over the ah-
1 sem*e of news from Washington regarding
(treasury relief, us suggested I11 yesterday's
1 new* re|M»rts. The London market lor
I Auierlcaiis was strong mid n better feeling
; prevails over the financial situation abroad.
; Meantime, apprehension of nn unfavorable
bank statement today and the possible
Vwiping out of the snrjdus reserve restricts
j support within narrow limits. The bank
; statement was more unfavorable than ex*
j las ted mid reflected In full the loss by
I these institutions through sub-treasury and
! interior oiieratloiis. The surplus reserve Is
now !6.«n(l ( rjnu less than legal requirements,
j llcporis from interior fiiiauclaf markets.
