European Markets

NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-The Evening
Posts financial cablegram from London
says: There was a general reaction in the
stock market today. Americans opened
dull on the New York quotations this
morning. There was a sharp rally at mid
day, but as sharp as a fall at the close.
the finish being fiat at the lowest. The
decline was partly due to New York tao
tics and partly to the fall in wheat. / am
told French buying has ceased for the mo-
ment. This in no way contradicts what l
cabled about French exchange. In spite
of the recent selling of Americans here
the best opinions here consider that Amer
lean securities are too well established now
to be shaken by any moderate reaction. A
heavy shake-up will, it is believed, in
duce fresh buying. Bar gold is quoted at
rs 117sd, but there has been no further
sale of bars by the Bank of England thus
confirming the exceptional nature of the
sales early in the week. Kaffirs were dull.
Interest in them centers on the mining re-
form and the concessions by the Trans
vaal government. Today's London dis
count for three months Is IL per cent but
the forward quotation for next week is
15s. French exchange was quoted at wide
ly different figures at the close ranging
from 25.171a to 25.15%. The Paris and Ber-
lin bourses were steady. Exchange has
again risen sharply. The cause is under
stood to he the large sales wheat drafts
by New York on Paris. thus threatening
gold exports from France. French mer-
chants are therefore buying bills on Lon
don in order to ship gold if necessary from
there.

STOCK REVIEW
Bradstreets review of the stock market
will say tomorrow: After little hesita-
tion at the beginning of the week the mar
ket had broadened and advanced on an
enormous volume of transactions. Public
buying of an aggressive kind has absorbed
all offerings and the leading financial and
speculative interests have evidently lent
their aid to the movement. A feature has
been the attention paid to low priced and
neglected securities, many stocks of this
class advancing merely in sympathy with
the general movement of prices. The ad-
vance in gain and confirmation of previous
estimates of European requirements, to-
gether with the crop in exchange and ex-
pectations of large gold imports. are
among the leading factors in sustaining
the bullish sentiments. The street is also
influenced by the increasing returns of
railroad earnings all over the country, as
well as by the accounts of the volume
which railroad earnings are assuming.
The movement has not been without dan
gers of overpurchasing and the creation of
weak accounts. A moderate selling move
ment on Friday. which was. however,
steadied by the leading bull interests be-
fore 1t had gone very far. was therefore
looked on with some satisfaction.

Dun & Co.'s Review

NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade will tomor-
row say: Every city reporting this week
notes increase in trade and nearly all re-
port bright crop prospects. The great
change in business is emphasized by the
presence of multitude of buyers from
all parts of the country, by their state
ments of the situation at their homes and
more forcibly by the heavy purchases
they are making. But the customary signs
OF prosperity are not lacking. The strong
rise In stocks, the growth of bank clearings
ana railroad earnings, the heavy specula-
ton in many products, but most of all in
wheat have made the week one of sur
passing interest, even to those who best
remember the upward rush in 1879 At the
principal clearing houses throughout the
country payments in July were slightly
larger than in 1892 and lilo per cent larger
than last year; in the first week of August.
~ per cent larger than in 1892, and 2S4 a
per cent larger than last year, and in the
second week of August they are 10 per
cent larger than in 1892. and 3S1 per cent
larger than last year. The great crops and
the haste of foreigners to buy and ship
wheat in view of shortage elsewhere, have
made the week memorable. Taking of
profits by a pool lowered the price cents
on Saturday, but it has since risen cents.
Western receipts, slow in July. have in
two weeks been 7,397,S14 bushels, against
6,722, 1862 last year, and Atlantic exports,
flour included, have been in the same week
6,114,031, against 3,3S4,313 last year. The
urgency of French buying of wheat, re-
ports that Russia will stop exports in
order TO keep supplies for itself. and con-
tinued shipments from the Pacific coast
to the countries usually having surplus
make even the largest estimates of prob
able supplies not too great for the possi-
BILE demand. In all the great industries
large demand for products appears,
leading to heavy purchases of iron ore.

Bradstreet's Review

NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-Bradstreet's to-
morrow will say: Evidences of widespread
revival in demand for merchandise and
other products have become so numerous
as to compel general recognition. The
press has, therefore. ceased discussing
whether trade has really improved or not
and have begun measuring the volume of
business compared with preceding periods.
buoyancy of feeling has appeared among
buyers and sellers at New York. Balti-
more, Chicago, st. Louis and Kansas City.
where interior merchants have thronged
this week, the like of which has not been
seen for several years. Interior merchants
are buying dry goods. clothing. shoes, gro
ceries and fancy articles far more freely
than at any time since 1899. Crop condi-
tions have improved at the south and
southwest. and merchants there are more
encouraged. Southern lumber mills are
not able to keep up with the orders and
the innumerable small consumers of iron
and steel throughout the central west
ern states are buying raw material as they
have not for years A nominal advance
of 10 cents ton for steel bllets is more
than a feature, as it means the confidence
of makers in an early revival OF the de-
mand for iron and steel, which has been
so long delayed. Wheat scored an advance
of I cents on continued exports and ten
dency to decrease estimates of the size
Of the domestic crop. Wool is higher on
speculative holding and cotton yarns have
advanced again. Exports of wheat (1our
included as wheaD from both coasts of the
United States and from Montreal this
week aggregate $40 bushels. an in
crease over last week of more than 1000.
600 bushels, and compared with shipments
in the week ago of 2,635 900 bushels, 1924,
900 bushels in 1895. of 2.919,000 bushels in
1894 and of 612S,000 bushels in 1893 The
worldwide character of the demand for
our wheat and flour is illustrated by the
exports from both coasts of this country
to such far-off and infrequent customers
as Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. Callao in
Peru and Surabata in the island of Java,
not TO mention highly increased shipments
to Europe, China and the east.
There were 214 business failures re-
ported throughout the United States this
week compared with 2l4 last week, 20S

Insurance
The newest theory about fireproof build
ings is that their contents are no safer fire
risks than those contained in well built,
but not fireproof. buildings. The compari-
son is made in two large dry goods fires
which have occurred this year. One in St.
Louis was in a building Of superior con-
struction, without any claim to fireproof
qualities. The building was badly dam
aged, but the stock fell into the basement
and was rescued in very much damaged
condition, although some of it escaped
without much loss. The contents of this
building were saved and so we'll handled
that the loss was under go per cent. The
other fire was in so-called fireproof build
ing in Pittsburg, Pa. Here the building
stood up well and only one floor fell
through, but the stock was all consumed
