New York, June Sugar monopo-
lized the speculation on the stock ex-
change today, more than half the bust
ness having been done in the shares of
the Sugar trust It was a very eX-
citing day for the operators in this mer-
curial property, the fluctuations in

at times very strong and again the sell
ing was very heavy, a jump of IL being
made at the opening and a further adj
vance of Il; then, on selling, a reaction
of Is took place, but buying orders were
met which absorbed all the offerings
and another rise resulted, which sent
the stock up 70 2061s. This purchasing
movement was based on the result OF
the voting on the amendment offered
to the schedule in the Senate, which
showed that the programme was to be
carried out. But when the top figure
was reached, a good deal Of stock came
out which checked the purchasing
movement, inaSmuch as it led to a be-
lief that some interest was bucketing
the stock on the bull men, and that il
was likely that an inSider was forcing
the shares to the traders. This suspi-
clon induced realizing sales as well as
stopping the buying, and a reaction tC
1O4S4 took place. The lower range was
maintained but a short while, when re-
newed purchases caused a quick. recov.
cry. the stock closing within Is of the

New York, June 5.-As several men of
prominence in the Legislature. of the coun-
try have from time 10 time taken an in
terest in the subject of gold shipments.
and have individually asked the advice
of New YORK; bankers. Henry Clews has
prepared an open letter. which he sent to
several congressman today. In it he
says:
Money as power is coming to be
recognized as the most potential influence
in connection with national alliances.
War methods belong to the past and will
soon by common consent be relegated to
the rear TO make way for offensive and
defensive reciprocity commercial treaties,
whic1 will enforce prolonged peace and
prosperity. There is gold enough to go
around if mutual consideration and for
bearance are exercised. but not sufficient
If such struggles continue as were expert
enced last summer between the gold par
ing nations. Mutual confidence and fair
spirit of reciprocity between nations will
make the worlds supply of gold ample
to provide for all legitimate exchanges,
Internally and externally, with the ma
lions now on the single standard basis,
but not to provide for a selfish spirit of
boarding at the same time.
TO prevent the excessive shipments of
goldpperiodically. the four great nations,
England, France, Germany and the
tional note currency or a ~ gold bond

sue Sl00.0)a 600, the four nations to be
equally responsible for the principal and
interest by a mutual agreement. These
obligations backed by such high securi-
ties would take the place of gold exports
and imports. Gold would be no better as
a remittance, as a matter of fact not
nearly so desirable. The notes and bonds
would be, an international currency and
would provide a substitute for gold I'M a
settlement of balance between the ma
tions. It has really gotten to be a mat
ter of dollars and cents with nations, and
especially with those who are oVer-bur-
dened with debt, which include most OF
them. These increasing burdens must
soon make it imperative to abandon the
present large standing armies and navies
and substitute commercial treaties
1.-The almighty dollar must soon assume
command. Platonic friendships between
nations must gradually give way to cold
blooded cash alliances. Money is des-
tined to control
1T IS undeniable that it alone makes
a nation strong and powerful and ready
for all emergencies, as it does bank OF
business. Congressman Thos. b. Reed in
his recent interview foreshadowed the
events in the future relations of nations
