MONEY MARKET FACTORS.

The rapid rise in Paris exchange on London was
chiefly responsible for the absence of gold export
engagements in this market for Paris yesterday
With the higher rate IN Paris on London all profit
at local rates has been cancelled but the strength
in sterling yesterday in this market suggests that
exports of gold over for the season. A
little advance only in sterling would make ship
borrowed cheaper in Newly ork and European Con-
tinental cities than in London. The London dis
count rate was firm yesterday, and the Bank of
England reported large business in loans and
short bills at per cent. Stock Exchange loans
in London for the fortnight 44a4a per cent and
the contango rate for American securities is 5d52
per cent. Another increase in the Bank of England
discount rate would not be surprising. There is
very little doing in the local discount market
most bankers being out of the market The best

THE DAYS OPERATIONS N STOCKS.

The stock market was again reactionary I'M
der realizing sales and bear pressure. Pool sup
port has apparently been withdrawn, but the
chances are that a slightly lower range of
values would encourage renewed operations
for higher prices The advance of the last few
weeks has weakened the technical position of
speculation by reducing big short interest.
but it has not made the market topheavy or
placed stocks In weak hands The public did
not take part in the advance and small traders
are not loaded up with stocks. The public is
not carrying many stocks. Buying Of the
last month has been for the account of inter
ests who are well able to protect their holdings
No doubt many operators have bought in ex-
pectation Of selling to the public; but the last
named has not been in the market. and it would
therefore seem that present holders would find
II advisable to maintain their position until
the so-caued public is ready TO buy securities
A reaction as a sequence of the recent advance
Is not an Indication that investors getting
out Of stocks.
The decrease in the st. Paul earnings for the
third week IN July is not good argument for
selling the granger shares. With the exception
of 1899. the gross earnings of this company for
the third week were larger than in any cor
responding period in the history Of the road. The
gain in 1899 over 1898 was $216,220, and the de
crease of $4,000 this year is not important.
in the poorest of years II should be able to earn
its per cent dividends: but the chances are not
in favor Of higher rate in prosperous years, as
the policy of the mana cement is apparently in
favor of per cent rate for all times. The road
could have paid much more than per cent in
the last two years, and the refusal Of the man
agenlent 10 raise the rate to per cent may be
taken as evidence that St Paul will not vary its
rate in good times, although extra dividends may
be declared Rock Island and St Paul are two
safe 3 per cent stocks, which are selling on a
level that ought to prove attractive to investors
Rock Island has made marked improvement in
the last few years in physical condition. while
its finances have grown stronger and its securi-
ties have increased in intrinsic worth.
American Tobacco stock was again active
feature and supplied an exception to the gen
eral downward tendency. Good buying re-
ported in Southern Pacific. The traction shares
were in fair demand, but the railroad list a
rule was dull and heavy. Commission houses
had few orders. and the general character of
trading was professional. The Vanderbilt shares
were sold on strike rumors and talk of labor
trouble at the Delaware and Hudson mines
helped to increase bear sentiment. Metropolitan
and Brooklyn Rapid Transit We're strong feat
ures. The market closed irregular but at rallies
from the poorest prices Of the day.

A BEAR TRADERS VIEW.

An active trader said yesterday. in discussing the
market:
level Of June. and If serious break is not to take
place later on there ought to be a fair sized re-
action at once. In my opinion stock values will
sell lower before the fall. The present advance
does not possess the foundations that warrant a
sustained bull movement. and people who bought in
June are now taking their profits. The bull manp-
ulators have been working prices up in order 10
attract the public buyers. Prudent holders will
do we'll TO take advantage of current prices to sell
and then buy back on prediction decline that
will, in my judgment, take place Bryan will not
be elected, and after November stocks will sell
higher. despite Mr.. Keenes remarks to the con-
trary. Stocks bought at the current level on big
margins or outright will show big profits later on
but | believe that better bargains will be made
before a genuine bull movement develops.

WALL STREET AND IRON

The head of pig iron commission house was
quoted follows yesterday regarding iron and
Wall Street:
Wall Street began to discount the decline in iron
and steel by selling the stocks of the steel cor
poratons long before any of in the business be-
lieved that any such collapse in trade and in prices
was possible as has since occurred. Now, at time
when the trade is still in doubt to whether the
bottom has been touched. Wall Street is discount
ing revival of business and higher prices by pur-
chasing the stocks that it formerly sold. The steel
and iron trade have learned by experience that
Wall Street right in the first instance, and the
present advance in the steel stocks will do great
deal toward restoring confidence.
