HIGH RATES FOR MONEY.
ONE HUNDRED PER CENT. FOR CALL
MONEY ON THE EXCHANGE,
IL Had Little Effect on the Prices for Stocks
NO Excitement-Bank Onhcers
Explain the Cause.

NEW YORK, Oct. 29-The restriction
of accommodation by banks was the chief
factor in the money market furry to-
day. Loans have been called in some in
stances in preparation for possible de-
mands for funds over Sunday. At the
opening 10 per cent. was bid for call
money in the Stock Exchange, and al
though a few loans were made at that
figure, there were no offers at any rate.
and borrowers became more urgent in
their efforts TO obtain accommodation.
SO that shortly after noon money loaned
at % per cent. In the afternoon banks
that had agreed to loan money in the
morning cancelled their contracts, making
the situation worse. and no money APP
peared from any source until the rate
reached 60 per cent. Then was supplied
part Of the demand at that figure. This
mad little effect. and the rate quickly
advanced to 100 per cent, that rate being
paid on some loans TO be carried over
until Wednesday. At the extreme rate
money for the first time appeared in
large quantities.
Banks, however. loaned money freely
to regular customers AT 8 per cent, on
the basis Of the volume CT business done.
but were not disposed TO furnish ac-
commodations to outsiders.
NO EXCITEMENT.
The high rates for money had but

Bryan tells them that they want
silver, but their actions say they want
gold There is nothing like run on
savings banks. but there is a drain"
Another well known banker IS quoted
as follows.
The high rates for call loans are caus-
ed by the shifting Of loans by those who
wish TO strengthen themselves. banks
particularly and depcsitors. and by the
usual contraction incidental TO prepara-
ton for the November disbursements on
interest payments.
1T is only right that those who have
