this evidence OF the Intention OF the Adminis-
tration to bring about currency reform at
once will result in an imm m edlato Improvement
In tho business situation. But 1t may be that
the Street Ia over sanRuine. for recent com
merclal and similar catastrophes cannot be
charged entirely to the Sherman Silver law.
There has been extensive liquidation all over
the globe. and Material contraction OF credits
ever since the Barring catastrophe two and a
hail years ago; and. as matter OF fact, the
United States. in spite OF It's unwise financial
legislation. has suffered less than any other
country. That being the case 1t may perhaps
bo reasonable TO assume that It will recover
moro quickly when It has rcadjusted Its flnan-
cial system in accordance with sound and
well-establlshed principles
An important feature OF to.day's market was
a recovery OF about third Of the recent
decline in the price OF silver bullion. This
was to have been expected. and 1t would not
be surprising II a further advance was re-
corded. since the extreme decline reflected not
only the alarm Of the producers Of silver. but
was due In part. at least in this market. to the
manipulation OF bear operators in stocks. Tho
decision OF many mine owners to close down
their works and thus materially reduce the
supply OF silver should also be q factor In
steadying tho price OF the metal.
Upon sober second thought. and after q lit
tie Investigation. tho public. both here and
abroad will discover that England, which is
now refusing to allow any gold to be with
drawn for shipment to this country. viii bo
equally reluctant to part with any OF its stock
OF the yellow metal in settlement OF Its Indian
trade balance Attention. too. will be directed
to the fact that about 90 a cent. OF tho silver
production OF the United States is incidental to
tho production Of lead and copper. According
to the managers Of several of the largest
market in this country is about 100000
ounces This being the case. purchases by the
Government which will be resumed next Mon
day, are looked forward to with unusual in
terest.
st. Paul. Sugar Refining. Western Union Chi
cngo Gus Atchisop. and General Electric.
These were tho only ones in which the aggre-
gate transactions exceeded 10000 shares. and
they scored net advances ranging from j.. y
cent. for Western Union to 3a y cent for Su-
gar refining. or the less active shares,

vances. namely. 3'. and 3k = cent.
respectively. Tho final dealings reflected
great trepidation on the Fart OF tho bears,
while traders who favor the long side Of the
market derived evident satisfaction from bid
ding up prices on their opponents. The clos
Ing was strong. yet at a reaction from the best
figures. An account OF to-day's transactions
at the Clearing House and Of other incidents
OF the day on the Street will be found In the

20 FRIDAY. June 80.
In the early dealings on the Stock Exchange
Prices were influenced by a better under
$tanding than was obtained yesterday
OF the nature OF the action of the
Clearing House Loan Committee In TAX
ing out certificates for their own banks.
and also by an Improvement In the London
market for American securities The buying.
however. was In the main by the shorts, and
before the end OF the FIRST hour the market be-
came dull at reaction from the best prices.
Tho opening OF the money market was
awaited with great interest At tho
same time no serious apprehension was felt
because Of the definitely announced policy OF
the banks to prevent exorbitant rates. Renew
ais until next Wednesday were made In the
main at 10 y CENT while the bulk Of new en-
gagements which carry borrowers over until
Monday were made at rates averaging some
what above that figure. 1t will be seen from
the foregoing that although tho money mar
ket was active there was no approach to the
stringenoy OF yesterday. when. MS q matter OF
fact. money was at times absolutely unpur-
chnsable.
After midday the market began to harden
again. and in the last hour became fairly
buoyant. This movement was to an extent q
uatural reaction. duo to the relaxation OF the

that the Administration had decided to

last hour this report grew into a

some foundation was furnished by what is

demand for bonds. which, however, was
explained by tho enormous disburss-
