The Eveing Post In Its financial review today says: On the stock exchange today's market drifted into the position familiar after a speculative readjustment. Many of the industrial shares wJch have fallen most heavily and in which the "short interest" has been largest. advanced iowiv sinrni points. But pressure (of an evidently speculative origin) was put on the copper mining and the New York Street Railway stocks. The fall in the price of copper to a level 8 Cents below What wa naid for the metal last July, was the ground as signed in the one case; the report of engineering experts on the earning capacity oi tne mterborough under present conauions was the reason given in the other.

The company's bonds went to the lowest prices of the year and all of tli traction stocks were lower. The Pederad reserve banks last week lost about per cent in their "reserve ratio" of cash held aeainst comoinea note circulation and depos its, this being brought about by a loss of $13,200,000 in cash, wholly repre senting R-old. alone; with the addi tional issue of J8.7O0.O0Q notes. A re duction of $25 800,000 in members' de posits was offset by a corresponding increase in deposit to the credit of the government. The general effort to curtail borrowing aaginst security of Liberty bonds and other govern- men; ODiipaiions was reneciea in in reduction of $26,800,000 in rediscounts thus secured but commercial discounts increased 511,700.000.

and the panics purchased an additional $24,400,000 of acceptances, which is quite as effec- five a method of ma king credit avail able to the general market as direct rediscounting would be. Quite the most interesting thing about the week's report, however. Is the indication of what has been going on at the various regional banks. The New York institution, whose cash reserve a week ago was 434 per cent, has now brought it up to 45 per cent, the gain of $24,000,000 gold through the gold settlement fund suggesting that the improved position may ne due in part to sale of paper to other reserve banks.

Kansas City and Dallas, on the other hand, have rp ised their ratio of cash. The country's gold exports in October, as reported bv the government fodky were Wl.149.ono.
