DEPOSITS MAY OFFSET
__^ _____ I
DIFFERENCES SETTLED.
Charing House Grants Claims of
Depositors in Suspended Banks.
The difference of opinion between the loan com
rr.'.iir* of the Clearing Jlnuge and the depositors
of the Mechanics and Traders* Bank and the
Oriental Bank relating to the liquidation of th©
collateral held by the Clearing House against loan
rtr ti£cates Issued to the banks was disposed of
a . a - ,: :c of the Clearing House loan committee
yesterday morning by a resolution recognizing the
editable rights claimed by depositors whose notes
the Clearing House holds.
These depositors insisted that the deposits stand
ing to their credit at the time, the banks closed
.-. - doers should be offset against their notes,
the total amount being approximately 51.000,000.
Strauss & Anderson, with Grout & Grout, acting
a< counsel for the depositor* of the Mechanics and
Trader?" Far.)*. had numerous meetings with the
representatives of the Clearing House and their
counsel, Opdyke. L^dd & Bristow, and claimed the
right on the part of th« depositors to set off the
dr,">osits against the amount of the notes when
payment was demanded.
la round figures the Clearing House holds some
fff.CW.fAB of notes of this kind to secure about
fLSR,MG of loan certificates issued, but among these
rotemakers. while there are many -who had de
posits in th« bank at the time it closed Its doors,
there -* a great many whose deposits were small
a -.- who assert no such right.
The attitude at first taken by -.he Clearing House,
that it stood in the position of an innocent third
party holding these notes for value before ma
turity, and that it had a right to enforce payment
without regard to the equities existing between
the various classes of depositors, "has now been
njoflified so that all depositors are protected. The
resolution adopted provides that the Clearing House
mil accept payment of maturing notes, while grant
ir.g to the depositor the risrht to reserve the amount
of the balance standing to his credit in the bank
a t the time it suspended business, without preju
dice to the depositor's right to insist on offsetting
his deposit, the Clearing House Association

give the city about $45,000,000 leeway on the safe
side of the debt margin.
The bonds to be sold, to-day are expected to
finance the city till October. Controller Metz ap
peared at his office In the afternoon sick. He
would not go home, although every member of his
staff tried to induce him to do bo. He said he
would be down to-morrow for the bond sale if it
cost him a leg-. He was in such bad shape on
Wednesday night that he had two fainting spells.

all day. with the exception of a short period immedi
ately after the opening, when prices rallied moder
ately on covering by shorts. There was general sell
ing throughout the session, and market received
little support except from shorts. Ald decline at
Liverpool was a weakening influence at the open
ing, and later the estimate that the shipments
from Argentina for the week were 6,800,000 bushels,
which formed a new record for exports from that
country, weakened prices greatly. Receipts in the
Southwest again showed a falling off, and clear
ances were liberal, but the foreign news over
shadowed everything. The market closed weak.

to 95% c, then declined to 93*4e and closed at 93% c.

bushels of wheat, against 447.000 bushels on the j
same date last year. Minneapolis, JDuluth and
Chicago reported receipts of 407 cars, against 255
cars last week and 300 a year ago.
The corn market withstood the break in wheat
until late In the day # when prices declined about
lc on realizing. Sentiment early in the day was
bullish because of firm cables and unsettled
weather In the corn belt. The market closed weak.
May opened %c to *j,c higher, at 6H4{t€l%e, sold
off to 60 ic and closed at eO-VH^O^c. Local receipts

and corn. Cash houses were the principal sellers.

and then declined to 52% c. The close was at 62-';» c.

receipts of live hogs. The demand came chiefly
from shorts, .although there was some buying for
investment. At the close May pork was off 40c, at
$11 60. Lard was down 15c to 17 1 2 c, at $7 27%. Bibs
were 10c to 12V;C lower, at $6 40@$6 42>4.

j tha flnst half of th« session. The market opened steady
lat unchanged prices to an advance of 5 points, which
I £■«.•» hardly a full response to the firm showing of the
European markets, hut buying here was checked by the
decline- in the market at Rio and the full receipts. Of
ferings were light and seemed to come mostly from
I abroad, aa it appears that the scattering liquidation re-
I cently noted has just about eliminated the weak lor g
Interest locally, end trade Internets were moderate buy
j e'rs. but were n<>t aggressive enough to bid up prices
above the opening level. Sales during the day were
about 5 point* over the closing bids of Tuesday. Of the
European markets Havre closed S franc net higher, and
Hamburg was %@H pfg net hlghor. Of the Brazilian
markets Santos was unchanged, while Rio was 50 reis
lower than reported last Tuesday, while receipts at th<»
two Brazilian ports em Wednesday were 2!>,000 bates,
against 69,000 last year and 10.000 two year* ago. Tho

COTTON— The cotton market was nervous and un
settled during to-day's trading, closing steady, at a net
deciles of 8;39 points on old crop months and unchanged
to 1 point higher on the new. Sales were estimated at
150,000 bales. The market opened steady, at a decline
of 2@6 points, rallied to a net advance of 6@7 points on
active months on covering, but there was ■• aggressive
support, and later prices weakened under scattering liqui
dation and local bear pressure. At one time in the early
afternoon the active months were about 11812 points net
lower, the close being slightly up from the bottom on
covering. Neither Liverpool nor New Orleans reported any
change of consequence over the local holiday, but weak
ness in the Southern market was one of the. factors In
causing the setback here during the afternoon, and was
accompanied by private cables reporting that spots were
lower to sell The Southern spot markets officially re
ported, were He higher to l-16c lower. Savannah being
lower, Houston lower and other months unchanged. It
was rumored that a large spot dealer had stated that
Southern offerings were more urgent than for weeks past
and that the light receipts were entirely due to an ab
sence of demand of sufficient volume to bring the cotton
out. Reports that a large number of drygoods buyers
had reached town were somewhat of an encouraging
feature during the early session, but sentiment was ren
dered very pessimistic by the passage of the anti-future
legislation In Mississippi as tending to further narrow tnu
market and reduce th« buying power. ._,„„

UKAIN — WHEAT — Prospects for enormous Argen

here and abroad to day. There was a break that ap
proached demoralization In the domestic markets, while
Liverpool came TiS'ld lower than Tuesday, Paris was 10^>
25 points lower and Berlin 2*« c down. According to
Broomhall Argentina waa scheduled to ship about
6,800.000 bush this week, compared with 6.720.000 bush
actual last week and 4.304.0W bush a year ago. This
would bring the total for the year up to approximately
24.000.000 bush. or 10.000,000 bush more, than In the cor
responding time last year. A break of from 1"»-S1*.
l.ere and West mad« new low levels for the crop in both
markets. New York closed a shade up from lowest, but
lValVc down from the finals of last Tuesday. Active
stop loss selling occurred around midday, part of which
■was absorbed by commission houses on the clearances of
1,150.000 bush (<T two days, and reports that the weather
was too dry in Southwestern states, where Insect life has
also reappeared. This demand was not well sustained.
however, and for the greater part of the afternoon, what
with tha weakness In Wall Street and an export trade
that was limited to 3 loads, the market had no real buoy
ancy. About the only cash demand of importance was a
little buying by mills at St Louis and Minneapolis. St... k^
at tho latter point Increased 10O.0W bush in the last live
days. The interior movement, even for two days, .was
only 705,000 bush, compared with l.!!.H5.00o bush for the
same time last year. About the only foreign cropr news
of Interest was a rep. rt that conditions In Rusxia wern
not altogether satisfactory. The local cash market was
rather weak In sympathy with contracts, closing as fol
lows: No 2 red. lfi>».\ elevator, and Olt'sc, fob afloat;

BEANS ANT) TEAS — Quite a quantity of foreign
beans was unloade.l to-day, but a pood many had been
*r»ii to arrive, and the supply for the market was not
large: most of the recent sales were at $- 05352 10 for
pea and $2t?s2 05 for medium. Domestic pea beans ar«
firm, with most of the Jobbing business at $2 40. Medium
are also well sustained. Marrow are steadier but not
quotably changed. The movement In red kidney at the
moment Is not large, but stocks have- been considerably
reduced of late, and there Is a very firm holding. White

BUTTER — Receipts for two days, 7.501 pk»rs. Th»
demand on the whole was less urgent and the market
had a quiet appearance throughout. This Is due probably
to the fact that Jobbers are, operating a little more, con
servatively, and supplies continue fairly liberal owing
to th« fact that goods have been turned here from other
markets. Prices for most of the best table grades are
held steady, and when buyers want the goods they do
not protest against the figures charged. Exporters are
■till showing some interest in grades from 25c downward.
