THE MONETARY SITUATION.
Europe Forced to Pay This Country Big
Balance in Gold.

The local money market moved along in
its customary groove yesterday. 1t was
quiet and firm. The supply of funds was
abundant and the call for loans fair. Rates
were COZ per cent. Owing to the dearth of
speculation call money was slow. Currency
and exchange were on about even !erms
Small notes we're in better supply. Finan-
ciers expressed great confidence of a sharp
bulge early in the coming month. Bank
clearings were 81, ,997, ,70l IS and balance $227,-
226 95.
a New York banker expresses himself in
this fashion: at is stated that the banks and
bankers OF Europe are endcavoring to check
the flow of gold from Europe TO the United
States by raising the premium on bars and
coins, and, in short, doing everything they
can to chat end, short OF actually suspcnding
specie payments. There is doubtless some
eXaggeration in these statements. Allow
ing, however, that they have some founda-
tiOn. such proceedings would be of no avail.
Exchange rates here Oh Europe would
simply decline just 20 the extent of any and
all the artificial premiums which might he
put on specie abroad. The balance of trade
being in our favor, Europe has to pay us II
big balance in gold, and though the move

DEACON WHITES TUMBLE A SURPRISE
BUT NOTHING MORE.

Brokerage Firm suspends Operations as
Measure of Safety-No Other Local In
terest Birmingham and Pleas
ant Valley fractions Coming Together.
Deacon White, the famous speculator,
went 'long" on corn. He depended upon
Jack Frost to help him out by nipping the
crop before it ripened and reducing the
yield. The warm, dry weather blasted his
hopes The price dropped, and he went to
the wall
The receipt of this news was the event in
local speculative circles yesterday, and the
interest was intensified when it became
known that Rea Bros. & Co. were involved
in the Deacons catastrophe. and had closed
their Office pending further information and
as protection to themselves and their Gus
toners.
S.. v. White & Co. were the correspondents
of this firm in New York and Chicago. The
first information that Rea Bros. & Co. had of
any difficulty was the announcements that
the Deacon had made an assignment and
that all his deals had been closed out, and
nothing was left to them but to suspend
operations until they could find out how
matters stood.
Although the affair caused considerable
the least symptoms of excitement. 1t "as
a surprise and noticing more. No othec local
firm or interest is involved.
A represen native of the firm of Rea Bros.
& Co. was seen in the afternoon. He was in
as good spirits as If nothing unusual had
happened. 1--WE closed our DOORS" he re-
marked, "as soon as we were advised of
Whites failure, to protect our clients. We
know no more than the bare fact, and hence
can make no statement. We will come out
all right" The drift of opinion on the street
was that the firm was not deeply involved,
and would soon resume business.
The failure produced not even q ripple on
Change. Buyers hung back as usual, but
the feeling was buoyant, and values were
steady to strong. 1t was learned from an
inside source that the movement to consolt-
date the Manchester and Pleasant Valley
fractions is in good shape for realization.
Both sides have agreed upon terms which
are not far apart.and they are liable to come
together any day.
At the first call 26O shares of Pleasant Val
ley went ut 23A. The second call was

NEW YORK, Sept. 22.-The stock market for
the first time in many weeks actually
showed q reactionary temper to-day and
most of the stocks traded in are lower than
Inst evening as the result of the days opera
tions. When it was announced that the old
and powerful firm of S. V. White & Co. was
unable to meet its engagements, there was
a rush to sell, but when it was explained
that the failure was entirely on account OF q
deal in corn and had nothing to do with the
stock market, a better feeling was seen.
The buying was checked for the time being,
however, and the bears went in to make the
most of the affair.
There was, in addition, considerable ma
nipulatfon of money rates, and loans were
made as high as u per cent, while all offer
ings were withdrawn at the close, and bid
ders were offering % per cent, though this
was after lenders had withdrawn from the
Exchange and everyone who really wanted
to Orrow had been supplied. The bears
used their most strenuous efforts to force
values lower, but n good demand confron ted
them at every decline, and prices yielded
very slowly after the first scare in the early
dealings.
The market opened at Irregular changes
from last evenings prices and while Union
Pacific was up is, Northwestern was down
q per cent. The active stocks were more
prominent than usual OF late, and the losses
In them were remarkably uniform, ranging
generally from to per cent, the latter i'll
Reading. Among the specialties, however,
there were some sharp advances, and the
Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Chicago and ST. Louis
common rose 4 per cent and the preferred
nearly per cent, retaining most of the i'm
provement at the close.
More confidence was shown in the after
noon, but the rally was confined to fractional
amounts. Sugar was especially weak. The
market finally closed rather heavy after the
rally, with most stocks near the lowest
prices of the day. The final changes of note

There was single sale on call at the Grain
Exchange, namely, one car No. white outs

as follows: By Pittsburg, Ft. Wayne and Chi

eager to sell at prices quoted, while buyers
are very timid in the present drift Of
markets. Retailers very naturally buy only
for immediate needs when the tendency of
markets is downward, rs 1t is at this time.
The favorable September weather for ripen-
ing corn has been encouraging to bears,
and prices shave been steadily falling the
past week. Advices from the Northwest
indicate that corn Is out of che woods. Hay
is weak and slow owing to liberal supplies.
Wheat and fioul are fairly steady. Millfeed
