INVESTMENT DEMAND.

INV Ed 4 MfJNI DfUANb.
Firms that make n speciality Of in
vestment securities acknowledge that tho
demand for values has exceeded the sup
ply threefold.
Fairly safe issues have been absorbed
and there Is no diminution in the funds
seeking placement.
1.-THE National Treasury states that for
the current month money in circulation
has increased S2O.2o3.722 This. follow
ing a gain OF $50 900 900 for october makes
a vital expansion Of about $15.OOacoO for
tho last six davs.
Compared with n year ago the total
circulation OF all kinds OF money is &c.,
10000 from the treasury and amounts
in all to sl.sss. 10000. The perspective re-
veals even more money.
LARGE DISTRIBUTION.
ION the first of the year corporations
will distribute about slc0. 900. 600 In inter-
est and dividends. Besides. exports are
increasing rapidly while imports arc de-
creasing quite as speedily. The latest
figures tell that the exports OF merchan-
disc from this country exceed those OF
Great Britain for the first time N the
history of the two countries. The United
States is in the unique position OF desir-
ing 10 buy the American stocks ana
bonds that are held abroad.
1T is this condition that has warranted
a foreign government ia making tenta-
tive overtures for a big loan here. The
borrower IS supposed TO be Russia. The
representatives of that country were ne
gouatng with French bankers some time
ago for large sum but the transaction
was not concluded.
EAIISSARIES At WORK.
NEW YORK, Dec. 17.-Emissaries OF
Russia have made a careful survey 'of
the situation in this city and have sound
ed nearly all Of the leading concerns.
Their business has been conducted quiet
" and so far nothing seems 10 show
that their overturos have met with much
encouragement.
Jacob II. Schiff. of Kuhn. Loeb and
Company. when shown the statement of
Mr. Eckles. said:
II understood that about two or three
weeks ago several firms in this sity I'm
Guiding my own, were sounded nv per-
sons who claimed to be acting for the
Russian government as to a feasibility of
floating n Russian per cent. or 1-2
per cent loan. I don't think such a loan
feasible i'm the United States"
Henry Speyer refused 10 make any
comment on Mr. Eckes's statement.
An effort was made 10 see J. Pierpoint
Morgan and other financiers tonight, but
they could not be found.

Ed. AKIN HOME.

Yesterday afternoon as the time
drew near for the arrival of the Rio
Grande Southern Flyer" from the
north crowd began to assemble at
the depot and increased until it
numbered about 100. The occasion
of this was the return Of Ed. Akin,
one of Roosevelt's Rough Riders,
who was to be home on said train.
The crowd was not disappointed,
and as he stepped from the train
and was being embraced by his
mother, Senator John ]. Harris
shouted; Boys, off with your hats
while you gaze upon that scene"
and then proposed three cheers for
the hero of Santiago and his mother
which was responded to with will;
the mill whistle and that ofthe rail-
road engine leading assistance, to-
gethet with three shots from the
anvils near the blacksmith shop.
In the evening reception was
rendered the hero at the school
house and appropriate addresses de-
livered. 1t was hoped that Billy
Brumley and Carl Scharnhorstwould
return with Mr.. Akin, but they will
no doubt be given as royal recep-
ton when they come home to stay.
Dolores has indeed Jared we'll in
that her three soldier boys have
passed safely through the war.
