ACCUMULATION OF CUItUENCV IN NEW YOIIK.
The effect cf tho present movement of currency to
Nf.v York in Inviting elucidation Is already apparent,

Says !
The banks r.re receiving currency from the Interior,
and nrc looking about with mum. l anxiety ns tn liov lo
employ It. If liultliiaie trade dues nut require their
Liviliticft, thev wld Ik* proity sure to he taken up by

ing opinion that the year will lie a highly speculative
one. Already speculation hue become active m saenri

country. Thu latter for the momun; has culminated,
Lut IrJm nil sides wo hear lliat tlic p'pt s, so to speak,

IIANKINO CAPITAL
The United State* Supremo Court has decided that
the lax of oi.e-twciily-fourlh of 1 per cent upon bank
ing c;q Ital rauuot bo levied upon money borrowed by
banks or bankers from time to time for the purposes
?f tlirir business. The Collector of Internal Revenue
In Now York took the opposite view of the ra*c, and
issessed the hanking linn of Clark, Dodge ft Co. f4,00J
laxnputi money they had harrowed. They brought
suit in the United Stales Court for restitution uud
were cucccs.-ful, Thu Supreme Court decision says :
The i|uedlou hen U whether money not permanent
ly Involc.t, hut burrowed temporarily in the ordinary
i oiiisl* <i l.iultuE* to meet uti emergency, 1b capital;
on a wo nro clear that the term does not, either lo com
mon acceptation or within the moaning of the statute,
unbrace loan* of that character. After controversies
had arisen an to the laUrpietatlou in 1» given to the
maiuto upon the anc-llon at Isjuo In this cuso between
banker* and tho (iuvcnmioat, Congress passed the act
of J.VPJ, duliuing the meaning of tho terms “capital
employed,” in the 110 th section, and enacted that they
shall not include money borrowed or received from
day to day in the usual course of business from any
person not a partner of. or interested in, tho said hank,
association, or lirm.” Ttiis enactment was evidently
intended to remove any doubt previously existing us to
the meaning of tho statute, imd dcclaio its trim con*
strr.eihni unit meaning. Had it been intruded lo apply
only to can*'S subsequently arising, It would undoubted*
ly liavc so provided in terms.

TUC SERLIN CRISIS,
The Horten Ztit any, of Bzrlln, describes the origin
»nd extent of the recent Berlin fiurry:
Up to the evening of the ;tIU twenty-six firms, most
ly nnall speculators, bad fulled, tome of them declar
ing tboir obUity to meet only 2 to 3 per cent of their
alligation?. Tho Bjtirso bud for tbe time being fallen
.‘o pieces, in fact, uud tbo Iteriiu speculators have buf
fered a defeat which has narrowly escaped being a dis
inter. It bus been brought about entirely by tbu reck
less dialing which has prevailed, and which is a curi
ous exhibition of Certnau tendencies Just now. To
llio speculator, as to other types of tbo Gorman pa
triot, it has appeared necessary, It would seem, to
prove that Berlin is now tbo centra of the world, and
he has sought to make it this by rccklua and indis
criminate dealings in all foreign markets and all foreign
k entities. It Wes not enough fur him to buy and sell
rotten loans at home, ho muse needs go abroad, al
though ' nmniltted for colossal sums on his 6wu mar
ket in Trench, I/omlard, l ailuu, Turkish, aud Aus
trian stock-. Ho the Berlin sjieculator took great risks
in I'uri* on CruvLlt oluliJlcr shares, dealt in Vicuna in
Auglo-Austriau, and in London in Peruvian. Spanish,
nud Mexican securities, mid pleo-ie 1 hlmdcll that thus
ho was vindicating for tho Berlin murkoca cosinoiwli
tun jo Jtlou. The wonder is. not that a crash has
conic, hut that It has seemingly affected ns yet only
the gamblers. Tuts explanation of tbo cause of pres

Tno leading produce markets were nervous yester
day, and unsettled. Provisions wero dull, while grain
was Inactive aud weak. The pressure to dispose of
breadstuffs was so groat os to suggest that a great
many operators were getting ready to go up,l>y selling
all that they had, If not ready to give tba proceeds to
(ho poor. Liverpool was weak, aud New York very
dull, while the expectation of largo receipt* here, with
liner weather for the crops, brought out sellers la
'force. The day was decidedly a heavy one all round,
though buyers took hold rather freely In grain, aud a
good mpuy shorts wero filled at the decliue.
Thu word "new" will be dropped this morning
from the Inspection reports, ' The cam now to come in
will M "regular,” if good enough to grade as No. 3.
The new No. 3 corn now in storu is not deliverable on
May contracts unless so spoolled, or unless tbs corn
be taken out of store aud sent back to be graded on 1U
present merits. Thors was a good deal of talk
a few weeks ago about making this change,

however, U ni whispered lliat the change would be
made, end then the market weakened, though It was
known bjr some that n prominent ojwrslor had gimo
to Springfield to try In obtain a vein on the arrange
menl. Up to the time of adjournment there was no
newa to Indicate whether or not the Journey lasuccc**-

the 10th of May, to continue closed for forly-Uro days,
has been signed by nil tbo distillers bore. Tbcstep
was considered a necessity, owing to tbo demoralized
slate of the market for hlghwinca.
There was Improvement In tbo demand for domestic
dry goods as compared with the closing days of bet
week, both local and country orders showing an In
crease. In vglurs no changes wore apparent. Grocer
ies to a pretty targe aggregate wore distributed to the
Interior trade, aud prices of all (be staple articles, and
most sldefeoods as well, were held firmly. Mutter and
cheese were quiet and comparatively steady. Dried
fruits met with a moderate Inquiry at Saturday's quo.
lotions, Tbo fish trade maintained a fair degree of
activity, and at tbo present low prices the fooling la
firm. Magging remains quiet at 31 Wc for Stark, and
2ti>yo for Antoileanaiid Amoskoag, Leather, coal, and
wood were quoted dull au.l unchanged. There was a
liberal movement in oils, the pleasant weather greatly
stimulating tbo demand. No price-changes wore de
veloped.
Lumber was comparatively steady at tbe yards, and
In fair local and country demand. Lumber is dally
expected by lake, but the receipts nro not likely to be
very heavy before May. Moat of tbo stuff to orrlro
immediately is what was left over lost fall, aud at
most points tbs old stock is small, and new logs nro
not yet down to the mills. Tbo local demand for
building materials was very fair at tbo current prices.
Common brick have probably touched their highest
limit (17.00;, tbo stock being sufficient to meet tbo de
mand uulll new brick are In market, which will bo In a
few weeks if the weather Is flue. Broom-corn was In
moderate request aud steady. Hops, wool, and bides
were quiet and devoid of now feature*. Hungarian
amt millet seed were fairly active and firm, but other
descriptions wore dull and easy. The receipt* of potatoes
were again heavy, and tbe market dull and weak in;
consequence. The largo receipts of late have enabled
dealers to slock up literally, bonce there was little de
mand except for very choice peacbblows, Poultry was
mors plenty, and easier.

heavy receipts led lo the exorcise of more caution on
thc*part of Eastern buyers, and not nulll tho forenoon
was well advauccd did they take hold with nuy show
of freedom. After 10 o'clock trailing was fairly active,
and prices, (hough showing some irregularity, were
without quotable decline. So far as fat cattle oro
ccrncd, tho supply Is not likely to ho far exceed the
trade requirements as to cau«o any serious shrinkage
In values, but (ho present ralo of supply of common
ami medium grades cannot long bo maintained without
subjecting prices to a material decline. During (ho
day a large amount of stock changed owners, but »
goodly number of common and medium cattle were
left over unsold, ami tho market closed oasy. Below
