4 FAVORABLE STATEMENT
The Showing of the Banks Stops a
Selling Movement
The Tobacco stocks Conspicuous in
the TradfnR-Tenncssee Coal and
Noted i'm the Transactions i'm
the United States Leather Issues.

New York, Aug. 12.-The bank statement
today was very favorable and its first
effect was to stop selling movement in
stocks which vas being prosecuted by pro-
fessional operators in the belief that the
statement would not disclose any addition
TO the supply OF money at this centre The
really notable feature of the statement was
the increase in cash holdings of the banks.
which amounted to Ss,2Ss, 600. A gain of
sc, ,SsS, 500 in specie was shown, with loss
Of s100. 200 in legal tenders. AS the de-
posts were stationary, there being an in
crease Of merely SIS. eco. the gain in cash
represented corresponding gain in the
surplus reserves To be precise, the gain
Ia the surplus reserves was ST, ,2Sz, ,7I5. The
decrease in loans, amounting to ST, ,395, 200,
was not unexpected. 1t was plainly the
receipt of funds from the interior that
prevented a decrease in deposits. just as it
was these funds that brought up the
cash holdings. On arrival here the money
speedily found its way into the banks.
AS the bank statement was made up on
rising averages, the presumption is fair
that the present condition of the banks
is better than the average condition for
a week, as shown in the bank statement
IN other words, the supposition is that
more money has come 10 New York than
was indicated by the bank statement.
The tobacco stocks were again conspic-
uous in the trading Sales were larger
in American Tobacco than Continental To-
bacco, and the advance also was large in

were active and strong. The heaviest deal
ings were in Steel and Wire, but the
largest gain in price was in Tennessee

There was great contraction in the
transactions in the United States Leather

slightly. The Chicago Great Western is

enhancement in the railroad lists. As

acter of 'Kimberlite" Nor was it in this
respect exceptional. The peculiarities OF
the blue ground" have been adyerted 10
by many experts as distinctly meteoric. And
meteorites are unanimous in claiming af-
finity with rocks of profoundly subterra-
mean origin. The more deeply the crust
of the earth is penetrated, in fact, the
closer the resemblance is seen TO be. Car
bon in some shape occurs in most of them
combined or uncombined, "occluded" as
gas. as an amorphous or laminated solid.
In the crystalline shape its coSmic occur
renee was unsuspected until NM Jerofeieff
and Latehinoff pried into the recesses of
the Penza aerolite. One-tenth of its weight
of four pounds proved to be true diamond.
The discovery has been amply confirmed.
Transparent crystals of very minute size,
but approving themselves as of the requi-
site quality by every imaginable criterion,
were later identified by Weinschenk in a
specimen pumped down from some dis
tant world at Ava, in Hungary, in 1916;
and the 'clifonitt" of the Youndegin and
Crosley's Creek meteorites-Australian
both-described by Fletcher in 1887 as a
novel kind of graphic carbon, was proba-
bly, diamond transformed by heat.
Specimens of the Canyon Diablo iron
discovered in 1891 in Arizona and contain
ing unmistakable diamonds were in re-
quest for mineralogical cabinets all over
the world. and since many tons of it lay
derelict round the base of Sunset Knoll,
they were disseminated without stint.
Closer inspections OF the locality, how
ever, occasioned misgivings as to their
aerial descent. In blocks and broken
pieces they strew an area about five miles
across in the midst of which a kind of
walled crater-"Sunset Knoll" alias
Crater Mountain''-rises to 432 feet above

construction; it is built out of the local
sandstones and limestones. uplifted into
sheer precipices by some strange convul-
sion. That the metallic wreckage has
more than a casual relation to the crater
is palpably evident; nor is the view ever
plausible that they are the spray of
earth in some past millennium-the splin-
ters of formidable mass, the impact of
which scooped out a circus three quarters
of a mile in diameter, to a depth CT 600
feet
Clearly, indeed the thrust was upward,
not downward; the strata were not bat
tered in from without, but upheaved by
some bursting power from within. Sunset
Knoll is literally "crater OF elevation.
The similar structure of the Kimberley
pipes at once recurs to the mind and the
analogy is undoubtedly true and complete
But the Arizona explosion was on a grand
er scale than any of those concerned with
the creation of the South African mines.

new crop futures making a small advance
of 1-SG1-4c. There was considerable coz
ering by professionals, who had been made
uneasy by yesterdays wheat experiences.
Stocks here Monday Will be down to less
thal tEo million bushels. The shipping
demand contintes heavy. Cables were up
a fraction, clearsnces 415,000 bushels. Re-
ceipts were 270 cars, with 345 for Monday.
Oats were without feature. The last
prices were the same as Fridays. The in
cident has been very large purchases OF
mixed oats by France in the past two
days, probably a million bushels Country
offerings, however, were liberal, enough 50
to create a somewhat easier tone in the
cash.
The times., 1899-08-13

The quantities exported OF each class
were much larger in all cases as well as
the values. Prices in some instances have
advanced, but this fact has not prevented
an increasing demand for American goods.
In the breadstuffs there was a large in
crease in the amount exported in every
thing except rye. Wheat, corn, oats, bar
ley, and flour all show large increases. The
number of bushels of wheat exported was
1,5O0, 900 greater than during July, 1898
The corn export exceeded that of July
1888, by $500, 600 bushels.
In all classes of provisions, fresh,
canned and salt meats, dairy products,
lard, and oleo products there was Uniform
increase.
The increase in the item of fresh beef
was 10000, GOO pounds. This is considered
a most suggestive fact in view of the argu-
ments made by many that Americas fresh
beef industry has suffered irreparable in
jury on account of the war beef scandals
The cotton showing for the month is a
most satisfactory one. The increase over
the previous July was $4,000 bales, the
value being s2,604, ,326 greater. 1t is noted
that cotton was sent to the United King
dom, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Russia,
Spain, British North America, Mexico, and
Japan, and that the amount of the staple
sent TO each of these countries was in
creased with the one exception of Japan,
The figures have not yet been completed
showing the exports of manufactured
goods. 1t is believed that the present very
high prices on all manufactured goods, ow-
ing TO the immense domestic demand yet
untitled, have prevented any increase in
the export of these goods so far this year
1t is predicted, however, by manufacturers
that when the American demand has been
caught up with in a measure there will be
an immense increase in exports OF this
class.

The past week ended much better than
il began. The last day of the week. in fact,
was the only one that could be called
strongly builish session. The bank state
ment was SO favorable and so much bet
ter than was expected, that the cliques,
the shorts, and the commission houses all
Joined for afew minutes after in buying
stocks. The result I this and Of the
advances earlier in the day was that the
level OF prices was advanced a point or
more on the average and much more than
that amount in many OF the specialties The
close was al or near the top all over the
list and the confident buying continued up
10 the last transaction. review Of the
week shows that In general the railway list
has been inactive with inconsequential
gains in prices and that the fayorites among
the industrial group have given tone TO the
entire market and redeemed il from what
otherwise would have been extreme dull
ness and inactivity. II may be said, how
ever, with perfect truth that the market
has shown weakness at no time, despite
small declines in some Of the railway Sc
curities owing to realizing of profits.
The situation at the beginning of the
week is again q most interesting one. The
question has not yet Neen decided If the
market is 10 have boom during the COM
ing months or Il prices are now as high il
the general list as they are destined 10 go
this year. Ii is realized that each week
that passes now makes some speedy an
swer 70 the question 90 much the more
certain. No market that Wall Street ever
saw allowed prices TO hang long at one level
and several weeks have passed this sum-
r1er since the grangers attained their pres
eut prices The leaders OF the market are
returning TO New York and within a few
DAYS many Of the people that have been
conspicuous by their absence recently will
be operating again, heavily probably. Any
week may see the beginning of a strong
movement in one direction or the other
IL is not unlikely that the coming six DAYS
NAV be the fortunate week all things con-
sidered The arguments for and against
the probability that the autumn market
viii be a bull one have been reiterated
many times. and there Is nothing new 70
add 10 either the bull or the bear posi-
tion. Mr. Keene has during the week
stated the bear position briefly. and his
statement emphasizes the fact shat il has
nothing new 10 offer. Mr.. Keene says that
the advances In prices of securities during
the past two years have discounted the
prosperity Of the country. He adds that the
prospect OF tight money would prevent the
making OF bull market even If stocks and
bonds were intrinsically worth more thar
they are now selling for. II Mr. Keene IL
right nothing can be expected except thai
the level OF prices will gradually decline
The most conservative people In the street
however, are OF the opinion that Mr. Keens
is entirely wrong.
