900 bushels Monday. The wheat market
was dominated by the same influences that
have ruled for the past few days. but Of
course as the end OF the month draws near
and the necessity of selling the December
wheat or changing it over to May becomes
necessary, it intensifies the liquidating fea-
ture, which is responsible for the decline
suffered today. There is nothing in the
situation to check the tendency. as the ac-
emulation of stock keeps up and the for
eigners are only making trifing purchases.
The holiday tomorrow was responsible for
for a little of the pressure.

CHICAGO, Nov. 24.-The wheat market
was demoralized today. Prices declined
and there was not single rally Deem
Der sold free and the spread to May was
5-Sc most of the time, and on one occa-
sion lie. Foreign markets were weak,
and about the only bullish item was the
showing Of light Argentine shipments. Lo-
cal arrivals are 80 cars, with an estimate of
80 cars for tomorrow.
Corn was heavy on selling of a big De-
cember line. May ranged from 80 Is to

NEW YORK Nov 24-The price move
ments ia the standard issues today were
again exceedingly limited and the only
changes of any consequence were in the
Industrial quarter and in stocks affected
by rumored or actual Developments The
trading in the main was restricted bv rea-
son Of the suspension Of business tomor-
row, and, as has been the case all the
week. il was largely for professional ac-
count London reversed the policy in has
pursued all the week, and was a seller OF
stocks today to the extent Of about 10000
shares. There was nothing in the days

African situation, 10 account for this

was. as usual 10 some extent effective in
influencing bOardroOm sentiment The
DAY situation was again void of any i'm
portant changes The money market was
easy, Notwithstanding the contracted
JeTiod during which call loans viii be IN
disturbed and the foreign exchange mar
ket underwent a substantial recovery.
Expectations Of a large increase in the
bank surplus reserves TO appear in to-
morrow's statement were common. but.
since trading VIII be suspended then, they
old not carry their ordinary effect From
preliminary estimates IL appears that the
banks have gained in their operations with
The subtreasury this week TO the extent
OF $iStl.o00. Since the local subtreasury
alone has disbursed over S1I. 000. coo on ac-
count Of the bond redemption since last

which has in a measure come TO be expect

come. partly at least, from people who
were sellers when the annual report was
published few weeks ago. heavy stock
holder in the company said yesterday, re-
garding this buying. There was gen
eral misrepresentation regarding the annual
reUort. People who did not know and others
who perhaps wilIfully misrepresented the
facts circulated the impression that the
affairs of the Mergenthaler Company were
in a bad way because a portion OF the sur
plus yariously estimated, had been paid out
in extra dividends This gossip regarding
the company frightened some small holders
into selling and it induced others TO sell
with the idea that they could buy their
stock back cheaper. The hrst were unIor-
tunate. in my Judgment, and the others
foolish The price is now several dollars
a share higher than it was before the re
port was issued. As a matter Of fact, the
condition of the company now is more pros
Derous than il ever was before.
The figures following are taken from the
annual report in question. and from the
previous report. They show accurately
what the change in the business of the
company was during the year. The cash
and other surplus items on hand October l.,
1898 was. 81, 3IS, 3G4.6I. The total indebted
ness was So .673.94, leaving surplus balance
of 81, 312, 63067. The cash and other sur
plus items on hand October l, 1899, i'm
mediately after the payment of the divi-
dend was 81. 1872 940.2S The total indebt-
edness was s.. 62l02, leaving a surplus bal
ance of s., 149, 1926. II will be seen that
the entire loss of surplus during the year
was thus 1853, 311.41. Twenty per cent
dividends were paid.
In this connection it may be mentioned
that in the year 1898, previous to the IS
suance of the annual report of that year
the company made special profits OF $lS0,OO0
on the purchase and sale of National Typo
graphic stock, which increased the cash
profits for that year to that extent. The
business of the past year was slightly
larger than that OF 1898, il this special
item of $3.50, 600 be deducted from tbs
profits of that year.
Figures of the present business of the
concern are even more gratifying how
ever. On November / the cash on hand
was S72I, 905. -, as compared with S514 I1l.50
on October l, when the report was issued
The book accounts We're 81, 323 GOO as COM
pared with 81, 275, S66 H. Both show good
increases.
On November 20 the cash on hand was
s829, 4S6. 10 an increase of $314,775 in the
fifty days since October l. The book ae-
counts on this later date also showed an
increase. 1t Will be seen that these ac
counts represent profits more than enough
to pay the quarterly 8 per cent dividend.
1t may be stated on the authority of di-
rector of the company that the untitled or
.ders for machines are now about 200, There
we're received in October orders for rs ma

desired. There are three days next week
during which the Government proposition
viii hold good, until November 30, and it
is now the opinion of bankers generally
that the entire S25, 900 900 is likely to be
sold. The effect Of the large sales yester-
day was continued ease of money rates.
The lowest rate yesterday for call money
was per cent and it seemed entirely
probable that this rate will be again OBJ
tanned by the borrowers next week. The
bank statement is matter Of
quite as much doubt this week
as it was last but it is all
doubt as to the amount of improvement, as
nobody questions the fact that there will
be a large increase in the cash on hand
and the surplus reserved in the banks.
An increase Of $1,000 600 or 100000 in
the reserve is estimated by conservative
houses.
