IN The WORLD OF FINANCE
NEW YORK STOCKS.

New York, -.August 21.-The Wall
street fraternity was inclined toward
hlgher stocks to-day on vague sugpes-
tions OF distressing character, together
with some Legitimate depressing infiu-
ences. Rumors were current at the out.
set that meeting of the clearing house
committee had been called to consider the
advlsablllty of an immediate issue of GER
tificates, Upon inquiry officials at the
clearing house and leading bankers de-
clared that such a step had been 'consid.
cred some time since, and decision
reached that no issue would be made ex-
cept IN case of extreme necessity. The
condltlon of financial and commercial
affairs was not believed to call ND an
issue OF certificates, although it was con-
ceueu that IN some cases over extended
business concerns were having trouble in
securing financial accommodations.
The exchange market was cratic, al
though very dull land after an early slight
advance in actual and posted figures
reacted on stiffening in call money rates
ported that the total gold afoat, destined
for this city, amounted to SO, 750, 900, and
a purchase of S1.000,000 in eagles for
shipment to this side was noted in Lon
don. Bullion dealers denied reports that
gold was being bought at stiff.premium,
and the metal was offered "to arrive, at
premium OF Ia per cent. without
takers.
The money market was unchanged as
regards time funds, aside from an alleged
slightly easier tone, and the bulk of the
transactions on call was made at an aver
age OF 4a5 per cent. The bears made cap
1tal out of estimates of probable de-
crease of S3500,000 to S5,000,O0O in the
reverses of the associated banks in to-
morrow's statement of average, but on
the other hand it was rumored that the
banks would pool their resources, so as
to avoid the issue of clearing house GER
tificates. Predictions had been freely
made of demonstration against Western
Union, and were confirmed by vigorous
raid.
The bears were favored in their efforts
against the market in successive reports
of further rates cutting by the railroads.
AS result of the foregoing develop
ments, and q reported unfavorable inn
preston in London regarding the none
tary outlook here, the market, on de-
creased dealings, trended toward n lower
level generally. The final prices gener-
ally showed sharp fractional net declines
in the active list.
