THE o MARKET.

Wall street holds the monetary barome-
ter Of this country. Today it has a
strong upward tendency and it is ques-
tionah!e whether the upward movement
has lost its momentum or not. Every
body, in around Wall street. seems
to believe that 4 high ranged market will
prevail. Fancy prices are paid for
many bonds ard stocks, while many Of
the cid favoritas will, from present ind
cations, he gradually Withdrawn from the
speculative AREA and the newer issues
will take their places. Among these the
IndustriaIs ara making a strong bid for
public favor. Henry Clews, an authority
in the money market, thinks he future
of these Industrlals is rather uncertain
because the situation in financial affairs
is an unprecedented one and imperfectly
understood.
Writing in this vein Mr.. Clews says:
wall street is not indifferent to the i'm
mense current creations of trust issues.
1t is felt to be a movement of the pro-
foundest impcrtance.' Important to Wall
street as these issues may possibly un-
settle confidence in the somewhat future
Of our industrial system. He holds, how
ever, tina 'these trust operations are not
properly speaking new creations but are
rather the reshaping of old capitals
Hence the movement is to be regarded a.
only an expansion of corporate capital
That is money doing business in the same
old shop with a new sign. But thest
trust issues, Mr.. Clews thinks, are mucl
more adapted for great speculative oper
atoms than those they displace SHOULD
the stock exchange decide in favor of ad
in it's privileges. That is the questio,
which the board, at the present time
mas not decided upon. 1t may excite un
usual interest, if not wide Emergencies o
opinion, at a later stage.
In summing up the condition of tn
stock market Mr.. Clews says From ex
IRENE depression the public pendulum
has swung to excessive confidence, unit
NOBODY is willing to believe bad news
while good news is eagerly swallowe
with little regard to its probability or &C
curacy." And hat is the way the publ
pendulum swung just before the Blac
Friday, in 1873, and before other none
tary panics occurred which ruined thou
sands of business firms throughout tn
country, and showed many a bank t

sometimes goeth before a fall.

much delight, for they range from $50 up
