to their level. The net changes in the
grangers have been trivial, part showing
gains and part losses. The marked
has been an indication of improving trade
conditions and is attributable to the rise
in the price of iron. The fact that the
largely increased volume of business in the
iron industry which followed the break in
the various pools is being succeeded by
improving prices, is taken as an encourag-
ing sign. Quite a feature in the market all
the week has been the aggressive strength
shown by the low priced shares, especially
those of reorganized companies, the pre-
ferred stocks leading. Oregon Navigation
preferred leads the Improvement in this
class with gain of 71a. The bond market
displayed very strong tone during the
week. with the dealings in considerable
volume. The market was governed to a
considerable extent by the developments
operating to enhance share values. Pur-
chases by leading interests impaired de-
cided impetus to the general tendency
with the inquiry for the liens of reor-
ganized properties very brisk. Transac-
tions for continental account were in large
volume and included purchases of the more
prominent international mortgages. The
changes in the more active mortgages were
mainly unimportant, with gains, however,
prevalent aside from Atchson fours, which

ON 'CHANGE
What Was Done Yesterday on Wall
Street

NEW YORK, June 12.-Sugar asserted its
leadership in the market quite emphatical-
ly today and the tone Of the market was
almost wholly dependent upon develop
ments. The obvious fact that there was
selling to take profits on Sugar was the
potent influence in causing realizing sales
in other stocks. The consequence is an
average loss for the day in the prices of
stocks. There was a vigorous manipulation
in Sugar to hold it at the high level and
even to raise that level on the strength of
the benefits to accrue to the company
from the sugar schedule adopted by the
senate. But those who have benefited by
the weeks rise in sugar argue that the
present price represents the value to the
stock from the senates action and that
the next influence to be taken account of
is the conference committee of the two
houses. There was some short selling in
Sugar in accordance with this view in addi-
ton to realizing sales, which combined
to carry the price down nearly two points
from the highest The dealings in the
stock represented fully one-ffth of the
total transactions. The fall in Sugar car
ried down prices throughout the list and
practically obliterated early gains except
in few instances. The grangers were COM
paratively inactive and moved within very
narrow limits, but closed with fractional
net losses, The week just closed is the
THRU showing OIL continued aggressive
strength in the stock market. The mar.
ket has been sustained all week by the
aggressive strength of Sugar, growing out
OF the agreement of the caucus of senate
Republicans upon sugar schedule which
is viewed with approval by the friends OF
the sugar company. This being the case
1T was natural that the whole market
should give way to a degree under the
preak IN Sugar today on realizing sales
5ut the week nevertheless represents as
whole another step forward in the prog
ress towards a higher range of values
which has been going on ever since the
senate took up the tariff bill and demon
strated That it could dispose of it with
reasonable promptitude. most striking
| feature OF the weeks market has been the
comparative inactivity, but firmness of the
granger stocks which strongly led the early
Improvement. They have halted during
the past week, while other groups in the
market were taken in hand and bronpht IN

Money in Bank

NEW YORK, June i2.-The Financier
says: The statement of the clearing house
banks of New York city for the week end
ing June 18TH, in common with the two
Immediately preceding it, is of q very mis-
leading nature and is so involved in tech
nicalities as 10 furnish no ground for the
assumption that business is expanding in
proportion to the increase in loans and
other items. Tho main causes that led to
the heavy changes exclusively reported in
this analysis last week will hold good
again. For example, the increase in the
loans of the banks for the week ending
June 18th was s1,S100O0, a very cheerful
sign of ITSELF but as the loans of the Ma
tional City bank alone represent an ex-
pansion of $4,101, 900 and those of the Third
National. which it has absorbed, a de-
crease of s1,000,000, it is plain that the re-
naming banks have actually decreased
their loans S1,230 GOO during the six davs
This puts an entirely different complexion
on the statement. So also, the other in
creases appear to be due to special causes.
According to the statement the banks
gained in cash S3.244 500 and in net deposits
S3 500, 800. The net increase in the latter
item, 1t will be noted, is not as large as
the other charges require, showing that
the statement does not give the actual con-
dltlon OF the banks. AS bearing out this
claim, the operations of two banks seem to
account for the total changes in the items
OF deposits and legal tender increase If
the total increase of sS,2S7 800 in legal ten
ders, the Hanover and Western National
banks are responsible for at least So, ,O69. .OoC
ana IN the item of deposits they show an
increase of 81, ,754 900, which is over 20 per
cent of the total increase reported by all
the other clearing house banks. This il
is needless to say, is an anomalous fea-
ture and not easily explained OF course
the boom in the stock market has some
connection with it, but preparations for the
payment of the sugar dividend probably
accounts for the Western Nationals in
crease, and probably, since that bank has

CHICAGO, June 12.-The opening in

the price began to improve rapidly. The
rise was not checked until it reached 69c.
Perhaps the most influential factor in the
advance was private cablegram from
Chicago board of trade man now in Lon
don, confirming previous reports of severe
damage to Danubian crops. The crowd
had evidently oversold yesterday and Gov.
ering was quite general. More complaints
of damage by grasshoppers were received
from South Dakota. but received little at

INSURANCE

The local agency of tn Prussian National
has been given to Sam. B. Dewey, as an
nounced by John A. Prinsen, the special
agent of the company, who has been here
for several days looking after his COM
pany's interests. Mr. Prinsen, upon being
-nterviewed, said that he did not care to
begin any action that would bring about
conflict in the matter of rates. His COM
pany had been badly treated by its former
agent and resented the fact, yet it was not
sufficient cause for opening up a fight and
the company's policy would, in the hands
Of Mr.. Dewey, be a conservative one.
The contest between the San Francisco
managers and the local agents, which is
just now being fought at Stockton and
the result of which is expected to be de-
cisive of the action that will finally be
taken in the whole State in the matter of
commissions. does not appear to be pro-
crossing in a manner that will give undi-
luted joy to the managers aforesaid. 1t
was announced with a flourish of trumpets
that if by the tenth instant the recalctrant
Stockton men did not fall in line and sign
an agreement accepting the reduced COM
pensation they would be incontinsntly
fired" and their places supplied by a regi-
ment of specials to be sent from San Fran
cisco for that purpose. The threat was an
aW1uI one ana calculated TO strike terror
into the breast of the mild-mannered
Stocktonian. Nevertheless. the tenth of
June has passed and according to the
latest accounts the agents are standing
firm and the managers have not ventured
to carry out their threats. This fact has
consequently inspired confidence in the
minds of those who were formerly dubi-
GUS as to the outcome and the opinion Is
expressed that there is yet hope of a sat
isfactory settlement Of the difference be-
tween the agents and managers.
