NO BOOM IN STOCKS
Conclusion of Peace Did Not Affect
the Market.
MARKET WAS STRONG
STEADY DEMAND AND PRICES
WE'RE HELD FIRM.
Anglo-Russian Fears Were Not
Realized-Dealings For the Week
Away Below the Corresponding
Week of Last Year-Good Bust
ness In Bonds.

New York, Aug 1S-The animation of
today's stock market was far less than
that of last Saturday and the net gains
on the days transactions were much less
striking.
! The actual signing of the peace prctocol
brought no enthusiastic buying, but on
the other hand it brought no realizing
sales such as are likely to occur on the
elimination of an event heralded and dis
eounteG. There was a large and STEADY
demand throughout the snort session OF
/ the exchange. which held prices quite
frmly throughout the list.
Active buying in a few stocks was con-
SplcuouS, especially Northern Pacific COM
mon, which added another point to its
price in the course of the day. The
! grangers were strong and Union Pacific
showed an advancing tendency. The
southern railroads continued somewhat
depressed owing to the yellow fever cases
reported at town in Louisiana.
The motive of the recent selling of Man.
haitian was disclosed by the report of the
June quarter, showing a falling off in
gross earnings compared with last year
of $145, 1927. The stock was lifted after the
earlier depression by the covering. A very
notable advance was shown by the Rub
ber stocks, Tobacco and New York Air
Brake.
There was no evidence of heavy liqui-
dation for London account as a result of
the Anglo Russian crisis, and those who
sold short yesterday protesting fears of
such result bought to cover today. The
large decrease OF Sc, 7S1, $50 in the surplus
reserves of the banks was without effect.
The closing was generally firm. only
few stocks showing slight receSSionS from
the best. The dealings in stocks this week
rose fully a million shares over those of
last week. but are still almost a million
shares below those for the corresponding
week last year.
The par value of the bonds sold at the
exchange during the week was however,
fully equal to that of last year and ex-
ceeds $2l, COG, 900. Business was extremely
varied in character and embraced so eX-
tensive list of securities that the move
ment of special stocks was of little effect
in deciding the course of prices. Weak
ness at some points was without influence
at others. Where the demand seemed to
continue undated there was obviously
realizing going on, but apparently the
profit from sales was diverted to other
stocks of lower grade, which had not yet
moved upwards.
The demand for stocks is undoubtedly
based on general conditions and the mar
ket has been little effected by the special
news developed each day.

HAY WILL SUCCEED DAY.
Ambassador to England to Succeed
Secretary of State.

Washington, Aug. 13.-It seems to be
settled that Ambassador Hay is to
succeed Secretary Day when the lat
ter becomes chairman of the peace
commission. The authority for this
statement is unofficial, but from
source which shows that such is the
determination of the president at pres
ent. The indications are that Secre-
tary Days resignation from the state
department will be in and accepted
within a week. 1t is understood that
the president contemplates the ap-
pointment of Secretary Day to a cir
cult judgeship after the work of the
peace commission has been finished.
bill is pending in congress for the
appointment of an additional judge
for the Sixth circuit, which includes
Michigan, Ohio and Kentucky. The
district is so large that it is understood
that the appointment of another Judge
will be authorized soon after the meet

sition is to go to Judge Day. 1t is said.

the present judge of the circuit, may

CENTRAL AMERICAN UNION.
Three Republicans Are Now Organic
inc q Confederacv.

Managua, Nicaragua, July 26.-(Cor-
respondence of the Associated Press).-
The delegates to the convention to
form a constitution fo- the states of
Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua
continue their sessions here almost
daily. The work. however, is progress
ing slowly. The delegates have dis
cussed the first II of the articles in
the printed form of constitution
which they have as a guide, and have
decided on the following principal fea-
lures:
1. The organization is to be a con-
federacy, instead of q central union of
the three states.
3 The name of the confederacy is to
be THE United States of Central
America
3. There is to be a.-federal district,
composed of the civil departments of.
,Chinendega in Nicaragua, Choluteca
in Honduras and La Union in Saliva
dor. all bordering on the Gulf of Fon-
zeca.s
4. The organizing capital is to be
Amapala, on Tiger island, in the de-
partment of Choluteca, Honduras. The
permanent capital is to be determined
by the first congress and will be To-
Gated at Amapala, Choluteca or Chin
endega.
5. There is to be president, instead
Of triple-headed tribune, as at first
proposed.
In a recent session, delegates from
Salvador protested against what they
termed "a spirit of antagonism to Sal
vador" in some speeches made by dele
gates from Nicaragua. 1t is thought
probable that either President Bonilla
of Honduras or President Zelayo of
Nicaragua will be chosen as the first
president of the proposed confederacy.

The New York Financier says this
week: The statement of the associated
banks of the city of New York for the
week ending Aug. IS shows that the de-
poSitS and loans have reached higher
total than has been previously reported
by these banl1s--iThe chief features of
the statement are the loss in cash and
the continued expansion of loans, which
have marked the operations of the banks
ever, are gaining at a much less rapid
ratio, and reserves are decreasing A
hardening condition of money rates is to
be expected with these conditions remain
ing in force, and indeed this result has
already been observable in the past week
A forecast of the money market at this
time is peculiarly difficult but the banks
have been able to considerably improve
their position as lenders by their opera
tons of the past month or so. The large
cash resources of the west make it I'M
usually problematical 10 estimate their de-
mands on the New York banks but on the
other hand there is every evidence of
larger crops than were reported some
active and the demand may be heavier
than has been looked for. The large debt
still owing by Europe cannot be dis
carded from the reckoning, and it has yet
TO be proved how badly Europe needs this
money.
