NEW YORK BANKS RELIEVED
Clearing House Helps Two, But the
Situation Is Stiil Serious.
New York, Oct. 22.—The recent ten-
sion of the banking community was
considerably relieved and no adverse
developments of a serious character
| materialized. At the same time there
| was evidence that some of the banks
most affected by recent events were
| still in need of assistance, but the
| promptness with which the clearing
| house accorded it did much to allay
| further alarm.
| The clearing house was called upon
| to meet debit balances of the Mercan-
| tile and New Amsterdam banks to the
| extent of upwards of $2,000,000, of
which the Mercantile owed about $1.-
900,000, and the New Amsterdam $200,-
000,
The fact that the clearing house
committee regards the situation as
still serious was shown by the remark
of 2 member of the committee that
the Mercantile bank's debit balance
was “unexpectedly large and discon
certing.”
The National Bank of Commerce
| gave 24 hours’ notice to the clearing
| house, of which it is a mem! ~r, that it
would no longer c.ear for the Knicker
bocker company. The directors of the
| Nationa! would not comment upon
their action. The National has for
some time acted as clearing agent for
the Knlekerbocker.
