Rain, 61,750 ligia. New York, Sept. 15.—Lust week'* deficit of 36,000,000 In bank reservoa waa, according to anticipations, con siderably more than wiped out In to- day'a returns. Yet the figures fall short of showing the week's gain In cash. Specie holding* are up *s.o2.'>,- 000, legal tenders down 333,200, and the combined reault la again less by 36,000,000 than yesterday, preliminary eatlmatea suggested. The statement, of course, falls by a long way to record the full strength of the local banking position. Correction of the error Is, aa usual, left until next week. Loans, however, thanks to the Inpouring of foreign and out-of-town credit, have decreased 315,000,000, and an increase of 310,114,000 Is thereby shown In the surplus Item. The market during' the two hours of today's business was ex tremely Irregular and showed rather heavier profit-taking than It had yes terday. Union Pacific, Atchison, the Steels and Copper were freely sold all the morning. But to offset tills, Read ing was marked up nearly 4 points further and Baltimore and Ohio and Pennsylvania were kept very strong. After the appearance of the bank state ment prices were shaded pretty gener ally, but the presence of a powerful support was apparent In tho closing dealings and prices at the end were again pointing strongly upward. New York, Sept. 16.—Rending was again tho most prominent feature In the stock market trading this morning. The crowd In It was by far the largest on the floor of the exchange. Orders for lota of 6,000 shares were numerous. This buying forced an advance to 1531-3, against 1481-2 at tile ylose yesterday. The eelltng was almost wholly to take profits. Later realis ing caused a reaction to 151 5-8. Tho buying was based wholly on an as sumption that a coal land holding com pany would be formed. Baltimore and Ohio was also extremely active anil strong, advancing from 123 to 124 1-2, the highest price at which this stock ever eold. The buying was practically by some houses, the heaviest purchas ers of Reading. Erie was strong, sell ing at 49, against 48 3-8 In tho early trading. There was a good demand for Pennsylvania, Delaware and Hudson and New York Central. Government bonds were unchanged. Other bonds quiet. The market closed steady at a slight advance from the lowest price. THE SUGAR MARKET. New York, kept, 15.—The local rr fined and raw tttgnr markets sternly nnd un changed.
