The Money-Rate Eased On-Prices
of Stocks Hardened During the
Day.

NEW YORK, August l2-There was
some continuation to-day of yesterdays
selling TO realize on the sustained advance
aggressive and sold stocks with growing
confidence as the day progressed. The
| advantage at the close was clearly with
the bear contingent, but the bulls were
by no means routed, and continued to
absorb their favorite stocks, which re-
sisted the decline quite firmly, but with
| out overcoming the general downward
| tendency.
The effects OF last nights furry in
call money were still perceptble this
morning, when cali loans were made at
per cent. IL was expected that the
cash absorbed by the Treasury on ac-
count OF the government loan would in
future be left on deposit with the ma
tional banks, but for some reason gov
eminent deposits with these banks have
not kept pace with the Treasury's abb
sorption of cash on the bond account.
The money rate eased off during the
day, and closed at / IA bid. The bears,
by that time, were forced to seek other
material for their campaign. The per-
slstent weakness of Manhattan all day,
on reports OF decreased earnings, was a
factor in their favor.
Prices OF stocks hardened very per-
ceptibly during the middle portion Of the
day, after the fears of tight money had
somewhat subsidized. The bulls took hold
of the low-priced railroad stocks. and

New York Sun.

Surrounded by admirers
At Long Beach. Hobson stood,
AS any hero under
Such circumstances would,
And with his heart In tempest,
His surging soul in swirls.
He calmly faced the muzZleS
OF half hundred girls.
There were eyes of skyey blueness.
There were eyes Of beaming brown,
There were eyes OF gray and hazel,
There were eyes 10 bring one down
From Heaven 10 Long Island
To wear the hero's crown.
And Hobson stood among them,
While batteries of smiles
Were turned full on the hero.
In varying forms and styles,
Which filed the air with heart-throbS
And strewed them round In piles.
AT last one dainty maiden,
A dream of pink-white bliss.
From sanity old st. Louis
with more of them like this,
Reached up and handed Hooson
A large and luscious kiss.
Then out spake Hero Hobson'
BY all the gods" said he.
"If any one had mentioned
That this would come to me.
For sinking that old vessel
Down in the Cuban sea.
I'd not have been contented
To sink a single one,
But would have sunk million
Before the job was done"
I.ENVOI.
Now here's to Hero Hobson,
A true man and good.
Who wouldn't be a hero
To stand where Hobson stood?
