FAMINE PRICES
Is What Europe viii Pay FOR
American Products.
The Opinion of Henry Clews, the
Wall Street Veteran.
America Never Had a More
Brilliant Future.
FARMERS IN PARTICULAR WILL FEEL
THE EFFECT.

They VIII Have hance to Clear OF Old
Scores and Floating Debts of All Kinds.
Our Crops Simply Enormous and Now
Beyond Danger from the Efforts OF
Jack Frost-Wall Street VIII BE in Its
Element.
New York, Sept. 2l.-Mr Henry
Cews, the veteran Wall street broker
and operator, was seen just as he re-
turned from stay of several days at
his Newport residence. He pleaded
that he knew little about the immedi-
ate gyrations of the stock market, but
was enthusiastic in regard to the gen.
eral condition of the country and the
crops. He said:
81 have never seen in my business
career (Which is, can safely say, as
long and extensive as that of any man
now living in this country, more bril-
liant future for our republic. The dan
gers from the efforts of Jack Frost are
out Of the way. The crops are simply
enormous, and, owing to Europe's re-
quirements, we will obtain famine

scores and floating debts of all kinds.
The farmers in particular will feel the
effect, and will be in position first to re-
duce their mortgage Indebtedness,
which will tend to reduce the cost of
production and put the country in posi-
tion to meet agricultural competition in
years when the conditions may not be
quite SO favorable.
"The payment of the running accounts
which farmers maintain with the coun-
try store keepers, much of which has
probably been running fer years, will
follow, and the lqui lation of the claims
of the city jobbers on the retailers
throughout the country will follow.
That we will have large demands on the
financial centers for funds to move the
crops and to lyeet the requirements of
the agricultural centers is inevitable,
and New York will, US the chief of them,
have to bear The larger share of the bur
den. But, though struggling may oc-
cur, it will be of the healthy kind, due
to legitimate demands, and not to ap-
prehensions such Us cause people to lock
up and hold en to their money. In Wa
street we are going to have a vibratory
market henceforth and there will be
times when fluctuations will be rapid
and prices wide apart. But in such a
market Wall street is III its element"
