streets will say tomorrow: Speculation this
week has been irregular and has suffered
from the unsettled condition of financial
AFFAIRS IN Europe and the continuance of
the drain OF gold in that direction. But
though the efforts of the Bank of England
to build up Its reserve have caused further
gold Withdrawals to the extent of s., O0O, 900,
and make the total loss of specie
which this country has suffered
since the beginning of the year
about $4,000, 900; it would seem
that the fears which were so prevalent in
this connection are losing their effect.
Foreign operators have again bought
stocks in this market, and, though their
transactions were not heavy. they had an
immediate influence on the temper of the
street. Coupled with this were the favor
able opinions that are expressed in finan-
clal circles abroad concerning the admir-
able way in which the business and finan-
clai interests of the United States have
stood the loss of specie and the disturbing
influences of the last few months; in fact,
when the exceptional circumstances which
nave caused tie recent manifestations come
to an end, it is freely admitted that the
expected movement of breadstutfs from
this country to Europe will soon result in
complete reversal. Our credit has gained
ground, and the position of American Sc
curities in foreign markets has improved
as result of these transactions.
The demand for wool is weak, and deal
ers are forced to make concessions in order
to secure sales. The slow movement in
goods is restricting the operations of
manufacturers. Dealers consider the prices
now being paid for wool in the
West as too high for the East
ern market. usually at this
time Eastern dealers are we'll stocked with
new woods, but during this year it has
been on a small scale. Quotations on Ohio
and Michigan fieeces are lower. Holders
are trying to clean out their stocks of these
grades by offering large concessions. The
preference for Australian wool is forcing
foreign dealers to sell their fine domestic
woods at sacrifices. In Texas, California
and the territories but few sales have been
made. Carpet woods are reported quiet
and unchanged.
