Londo, has Plenty Of Money.

London, Aug. S-The abnormal abund-
ance of money during the past week
compelled the joint stock banks to re-
duce their allowance on deposits from
the previous minimum of per cent to 4
per cent. 1t was even suggested that the
Bank of England should change its Gus
tom and descend below its recognized
minimum rate of 2 per cent. Gilt edged
securities have attained phenomenal
prices, though it will be rash to predict
that they have touched their highest
point Except for drop of few points
in Japanese and Chinese stocks the
markets showed better tone generally.
Railway and foreign securities were firm.
There is no fear that the Japanese-Ch
ese troubles will cause European compli-
cations. American railway securities
were exceptionally idle, the movements
being guided by the New York quotations.

GRAIN MARKET
Quotations Still Going Up in Spite of
the Professional SpeculatOrs'
Efforts to Have it
Otherwise.

Chicago, Aug. S.--The grain market
opened excited and higher again to-day
but the fluctuations in early trades were
not 80 wild as yesterday. The country
buying orders continue to push prices
upward. Local professional traders have
been fighting the advance for ten days
feeling assured that rain must come be-
fore the absolute ruin of crops occurred.
In view of yesterdays sensational ad-
vances, local traders are still fighting the
advance. September corn started at COZ
advanced "a cents higher than the market
yesterday and l higher than Yesterdays
close, but on heavy offers by local
traders, broke to 554; doomed again to
594, off TO 561a and back to 574. May
meantime sold as high as 57Ts and as low
as 514. The slump was due to agiving
out of country orders.
NEW YORK MARKET EXCITED.
New York--There was panic of an
other sort in the corn ring on the pro-
duce exchange to-day. This time the
bears won the smile and the bulls were
getting out of long holdings and in a
dazed sort of way were watching the
market slip away from them by quarter
and half cent cuts. The country specu-
lators especially felt the effects of the
break, as they have been big bulls and
made lots of money on the late advance
September corn opened at Ga and broke
to 591a. This happened within half an
hour amid great uproar. Wheat opened
weaker and advanced trife and then
dropned half and a quarter.
