to the Street.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
NEW YORK. July Gas was to be ex-
pected after yesterdays terrific hammer
ing, prices this morning recorded an ad-
vance over closing figures and liquidation
for the moment at least is over.
After exhausting all theories as to the
cause of the present financial condition
there still remains the assurance that such
fierce fire must in time burn out by rea-
son of its own fury.
Panics have frequently given way to
periods of prosperity without any warning,
and there is no reason why precedent
should not be followed at this crisis Bar
gains were never more plenty than now
and Z and s per cent investments can be
had for the double combination of money
and confidence. Sooner or later money now
boarded in safe deposit boxes must be
with the withdrawal of such money and it's
application to stock purchases. must come
a rise in prices and a renewal of activity In
the line of legitimate trading.
Money on call advanced sharply this
morning, and at O'Clock was quoted at 10
per cent. Time money under these circum-
was a week ago. Active stocks all along
the line are lending at a premium. varying
from 1-S to IL of per cent a day.
Covering of short contracts after the
noon hour produced a rally more spirited
than any of recent date, and prices were
materially improved in consequence.
Manhattan, which yesterday attracted at
tention as being the greatest loser, was
conspicuous today as profiting most by the
reaction, opening at 102 IL. it advanced
steadily to 107. Northwest recovered "a
per cent to 80. Burlington per cent to
Y. New York Central "a to IS. Louis
Vile and Nashville 3-4 to so. and Western
Union IA points to II "a.
In the induStrialS Chicago Gas was the
feature advancing from 45 to As 1-2. Gener-
al Electric was active and regained IL
per cent to 43 l-2.
There has been no news of special I'M
portance and the improvement in today
market Is directly attributable to natural
causes.
Rumors of additional gold engagements
are current. but could not be verified,
although Ii Is matter of common report
that negotiations are going on in London
for the purchase of $5,00O,000 for shipment
to this side.
NEW YORK. July 27.-The governing
committee of the New York stock exchange
decided not to take any action looking to
the closing of the stock exchange for a few
days which was suggested in some quarters
yesterday.
Lazard & Freres have ordered 81. .0Je 0OO gold
for shipment to this side. This is the first
large sum taken for some time past an6 the
belief that it will be followed By similar ac-
ton by other bankers gave the street more
courage.
Money in the last fifteen minutes drop.
ped to 10 per cent and prices held well
until the close. AS a result of the days
trading all stocks in the active list scored
advances Of from l to 5 per cent and the
closing was strong and at the best figures
of the day.
