FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MONEY MARK EFT.

SUNDAf, aug. Zb--b 4. M.
During the past week there has been no change ia
financial afairs. Money continues abundant at the
lowest rates Of interest, and the demand does not
increase Tho stock market has been from some
cause unfavorably affected. Quotations have been
gradually but steadily settling down. except for the
fancies, which have iuctuated more rapidly. Tho
changes in the market value of stocks have been
caused more by the movements Of individuals than
by any changes in money matters. Prices had be-
come very much inflated, and the maximum point
having been reached q reaction naturally followed.
The class Of good. sound stocks has not reccded
much, while the fancies have fallen largely, and
must fall to q much lower level New York Central
has touched nearly par again. II may possibly pass
below that point Reading has declined between
two and three per cent, but moves down very slowly
Erie touched 81 per cent during the week, at which
price the bears put out heavy contracts for future
delivery. Galena and Chicago has been maintained
better than any other railroad stock on the market.
Very little OF the stock Il Offering Other good
Western railroad stocks have been much neglected
during the past week. Cleveland and Pitis3nrg has
been active at lower prices, and the operations in
Cleveland and Toledo have been unusually large.
In both Of these stocks the transactions purely
speculative. Spectators hold the bak Of the stock
striving - distribute il among outsiders and
capitalists.
There Is not railroad stock on the lst which has
been inflated 20 far beyond Ill reason Cleveland
and Toledo. 1t should not rule at fraction above
Erie for it Is not fraction letter. The ten per cent
dividend paid last pril did the business but il the
modVs opeyanGi by which that dividend was paid
was generally known, it would have depressed the
stock instead OF initiating II. more out and on.
Peter Funk dividend never declared by ANY rail
road in this country before Not even by the Erie
We have given nothing but facts and figures in our
statements, and sole object has been to protect
innocent parties, WHO have been deceived into the
purchase Of the stock. Our statements have been
based entirely upon official reports and published
oeirts OF the company, and when We say that the
company for the current Fix months are not earning
single cent we Simply refer to the figures In cor
federation. II Is within five weeks Of dividend
day, and we do not see where the company have
tually earned a dollar. Making liberal allowance
for this month and next, the receipts will be less
than four hundred thousand dollars. Take from this
fifty per cent for expenses say 5000 900, neres. on
bonded Debt 1924 600. interest on floating debt and
fnanoering, $4,000, and We have left the sum Of
$4,000 for the October divided That there can be
no dispute about these figures give the official re
turns Of earnings in each Of the rt four Of the
rent six months, out Of which the October dividend
must come II paid.
