TIio Financier says this wo ok: Preparations for the January 1 dividend divi-dend und Interest disbursements, which, according to tho current estimates, amount t0 nearly one-quarter of a billion bil-lion dollars, were revealed In tho atato-monl atato-monl of tho New York clearing house banks issued Saturday. Taking the report re-port of nctual condition as a basis, loans expanded 513,589,000. while cash Increased In-creased $4, 873,000. The gain In caali waa a little less than anticipated, -but the Increase In-crease from this time on will probably bo large. There was an unexpectedly heavy Increase In-crease of ?27.798.000 in deposits, and since this necessitated an additional each reserve re-serve requirement amounting approximately approxi-mately to 57.000.000. the effect of the gain in specie and icgals was more than wiped out and surplus reserve decreased 51.i44.o00, leaving tho present excess above tho 25 per cent minimum at $5,396,-U00. $5,396,-U00. Tho report made according to the system of dally averages showed an expansion ex-pansion of 5S.257.000 in loans, an increase of about one and one-half millions In cash, and an expansion of $2I,51G,000 In net deposits. Tho surplus reserve figured on the average basis stands at S4.737,-050. S4.737,-050. The report of the trust companies mado independently of tho clearing house statement revealed unimportant increases and decreases. The tru:jt companies com-panies still show a deficit of 52G1.300 in reserve surplus. Closing Stock List. I Salcs.l H. I L.
