The govern ment's issue of $100,000,000 in trsasury certificates continues to en gross the attention of New York bankers, who apparently have not reached a definite decision on the course they will pursue. Subscrip tions so far received at the local sub treasury indicates that the larger banks are temporarily holding back offers of purchases. This fact has led to a more or less definite report that the neads of the 'larger institu tions are desirous of obtaining some sort of assurance from Washington that money paid out here for the pur chase of new securities will be left on deposit with local Institutions. Tho currency premium varied between 2& and 3 during most of today's negotiations. With tho price of money ruling at these figures It was said that bankers could not see their way clear to purchase certificates un der any other arrangements. Money shipments from New York to tho in terlor have been quite heavy recently and the banks are anxious to con tinue this means of assistance to tho general situation. There has been absolutely no organization to buy the forthcoming certificates such as has been intimated since Monday, unless it be tho fact that several largo loans wero called in today. Some of tho New York bankers are said to bo holding back in tho matter of sub scriptions so as to induco tho small Investor who has hoarded his money to bring his amount from hiding.
