The N. Y. Eofld Of Friday contains the follow
ing, which we publish for what 1t Is worth:
Yesterday meeting Of leading stock operators
vas held up town tn order TO hear the Views Of tho
leader Of Wall etreet about year ago. and who has
been absent from the city, owing to III health,
during that period In regard to the fature course
Of the MARKET he stuffed tint he had good reasons
for assuring them that the Secretary Of the Tzeas-
~ had abandoned the policy ct sharp contraction,
and sGas In favor Of scheme Of gradual contraction
spread th1oughuuta period Of Atteen 70 twenty
years so as not to depttss the energies Or tho na-
on. bnt to foster enterprise and healthy and act
II Development ofshs resources n tbs country.
He etated that another funding loan for
$4,000 wouh esentuate IN knocking down
the price Of Ffye:Twenty bonds belo~ psr, and a
third f50 oo 600 loan would depress thciz p.iee TO
so, and The advertisement Of fourth would piare

thai the Secretary Wenl. adopt no sueh snicl1al
Ponfy q contraction, rutnous to The rnate-
~! IN e.rst of the county; but that Mr. McCul-
och waA e1esrslghted and Practical man of
| busiuess who understood what the county wanted,
and would do al in bis power to insure prosperity

uindicous contraction 10 lessen the facilities
| qutred by The business community. Some important
| movements In the stock market were agreed upon
| at the meeting With view to putchastng stocks. ;"
We are inclined to think that the Secretary Of the
i-Tteasn.y will be led to con1ult the general
prosperity Of the country rasher than the interests
Of Wall street brokers, in his action With regard to
the contraction Of currency He will probably stick
to his Fort Wayne speech.
