in THE SIDE Of LOSS
Are the Majority of Changes
in Stock Values.
MONEY MARKET PROSPECT
Is, as Chemically, the All
Controlling Influence.
MONEY MARKET PROSPECT

New York, Nov. i4-Prices Of stocks
traversed quite a wide range during the
day throughout the list, but net changes
are almost all fractional and the majority
are en- the side OF losses. Money mar
ket prospects continued the dominant In
iuence in the trading. The evencs Of
yesterday had turned nearly all the trad
ers on the bull side and the market oueu-
ed with an upward move Of prices which
extended 70 a large fraction, on the az
erage, before reactionary tendency de-
Ivel0ped. The decisive influence in turn
ing prices downward was the realization
that yesterdays easing Of the money rate
was due 10 q sporadic supply OF funds
and not to any radical change in the
condition OF the money market A large
portion of the funds loaned yesterday
were attributed 10 a cash deposit by one
OF the railroads for the purpose % taking
up an old underlying issue Of bonds. This
supply Of money had the effect OF off,
setting the calling OF loans al the banks,
made necessary BY. the depletion OF re-
serves. and presented the stringency OF
the money market which had been feared
Ehe effect was manifest today as well
going above per cent and ruling gen.
orally below that. But the sterling ex-
change rate showed q quick response 70
this easing OF the local money rate and
moved an additional fraction upward.
This caused a cessation OF the talk Of i'm
mediate gold imports, on which was
based the upward movement OF yester-
day IN stocks. Thus. the hope OF relief
By an inward movement OF gold had TO
be abandoned for the time being. In
the meantime. the absorption Of funds
by the sub-treasury and the probable con-
tinuance Of demands from the interior
agement overcame the operators for
rise and they proceeded to sell out their
holdings. wiping out the earlier gains and
carrying prices below last nights level.
Considerable speculative activity Is d.
verted 70 the cotton market, where the
development Of a foreign demand indf-
Gates the REIMBURSEMENT by foreign buy
ers OF their attitude Of waiting for lower
prices AS bearing on the general money
situation il is important 20 note that ad-
vices from the south report money IN
abundant supply there. so that planters
have been able to obtain accommodations
The largely increased supply Of cotton
bills IN the exchange market in the last
few days, with the movement in cotton.
will naturally result in the early release
OF funds in the south and hasten the re-
turn flow OF money from that region.

And now we have the promise of the
mayor to divulge the "secrets of the ex.
ccutivc session." Our taxpayers will,
of course, be happy that such a promise
has boen made, and there is, of course,
no reason to doubt but what it will be
fulfilled. Secret sessions may be all
right, but a large majority Of the tax
payers OF the city will fail to view it in
the same light as do the worthy mem
bers of the city council. When men,
Der of the board of aldermen informs a
reporter that he is 'too fresh" when he
asks for list of appointments made in
secret session, no wonder the taxpayers
kick. But it is feared that contracts
may be let or discussed in public and
the interests of the city affected. Was
the alleged offer of Goodhue to pay five
hundred dollars into the city treasury
made at q public or private session OF
the Board? Did it have any contingent
cy attached to it? Why is it necessary
to discuss the dement's of tie water
company's plant in private when the
city is paying for it? The individual
members of the board are without doubt
honest men, but certainly the taxpay ers
have right to know what their servants
are doing regarding such a vast expen-
diture of money. Our City Fathers, Of
course, are men of brains, but not all the
brains of Barre are in the city council.
Others may have some opinions worthy
of consideration. Let them have a
chance to express it. Why are the City
Fathers not willing to let the people O
the city know what enters into the pur.
chase? Five hundred dollars is said to
have been offered for information by an
outsider. If it is worth that much to Mr..
Goodhue, what will it be worth to the
taxpayers? Let us go slow in expend-
ing money.

Barre evening telegram. (Barre, Vt.) 1898-19??, 1899-04-28
TERMS:

The ladies are not going to neglect
the city park work, and even though a
signal station has occupied the lot for
several weeks the fair sex of the city
will continue to improve the park. In
connection with this work on the park
comes another plan for a much needed
addition in the form of a playground for
the children. 1t is hoped by one and
all that this movement can be carried
through.
