Local business Notes

President c. J. Bell, of the American
Security and Trust Company, says of the
business situation: L am most hopeful of
an active winter in a business waJ. but at
present everything is dull Ssptember q
always the stupidest month Of the year.
and naturally in election year the duliness
is even lnorv pronounced. I do 10t look Tor
much betterment until after election.
There is a good demand for houses for
rent, l know and rents are keeping I'D.
Very few sales are being made, however,
and as far as l can learn there is not as
yet much Important enquiry. Money Is
plentiful locally as well as throughout the
country Call loan rates here are nominal
Iy at per cent, but there is very little
demand for funds. The same may be said
OF loans on real estate, though in this case
a few have been made at lower rates.
Probably there may be some spurts in
the cal money rate in New York but these
will be Wall Street spurts, and Will sig
nlfy little as far as the outside world is
concerned. There will be talk Of election
fears, an there always is, and it will be
the fashion to put up rates. The New
York bankers cannot be blamed for want
ing higher rates than those at present ruI-
ing. They can find little profit in paying
per cent for money, they do on outside
funds. and in Ioaning it for / and i I-2
per cent on call, which has been the pre-
vailing rate for several months past. There
Is, however, an immense amount of money
in the country, more than there ever has
been before. The New York financial Deo-
pie Would not be lending tremendous sums

NEW YORK, Sept. 26.-The st-ck N r

slight advances from yesterdays fnsl
level. The covering of short contracts
which was the feature CT yes ee1day's
dealings, was resumed at the opening of

apparently induced by the absence of
any considerable liquidation or pressure
or any kind upon the market There was
very little change in actual Gu side CON

The local stock exchange has been more
active during the past few days Nearly ali
the active members have returned from
their summer vacations, and apparently.
too, investors are returning as several i'm
portant orders to buy and to sell have been
executed recently. The average attendance
of brokers' this week has been twenty or
more, whereas q month ago it was hardly
more than 20 per cent of that number.
So far the new autumn business seems
10 be more selling than buying as a num-
Der of securities have declined in price
from a fraction to five or six points. 1t is
the fact. however, that this downward ten
dency has been caused to large extent by
manipulation. The trading element on the
local exchange is much more important
recently than il was year or two ago. The
trading element at present is +'bearish'' as
it always is on the eve of election. Con-
servative brokers express the opinion that
many securities, both bonds AID stocks. are
low enough to buy for investment to hold
for winter prices.

The evening times., 1900-09-26

Mergenthaler Linotype stock has been
sold off rather heavily since the books
closed for its last dividend. Prior to the
dividend it sold one day at 1870 and yester.
day one lot was sold at 176 1-2, which
would be equal to Isl 1-2 with n, dividend
included. Today there was some recovery
and the bid price was III at the close.
There has been the usual talk of
the chance that the company will re-
duce the dividend at the end of the pres
ent quarter and although there is no more
reason than usual for crediting the ru
NOR, it has caused some selling of long
stock, The professionals, too. have been

Chicago Gas was one of the weak stocks
yesterday morning on heavy bear selling,
accompanied by much talk of the hostility
of the Chicago city council. The price de-
clined to 50 S-4, the lowest of the move
ment, but afterward recovered to 81 IA,
nearly the best price of the day, at the
close. 1t held its own well today.
Eleven different measures against
the company were introduced into the
council on Monday night, most of them
probably simply for the bad effect they
would have on Gas stock 1t was provided
by these measures. among other things,
that the price of gas be fixed by law; that
the eXtension-of gas mains be prohibited
until the price is reduced to 70 cents: that
the Chicago Gas Company is an Illegal
combination, and that the city take over
all gas plants and run them. Another line
of bear gossip regarding this stock was
that the dividend will be cut or passed on
account of the fight.

There was dull market this morning,
but little evidence of weakness any
where. The opening prices and those
during the entire first hour were Wei
above the close yesterday, and in some
cases the best OF the week Later taere
was some little selling, but II did nor
cause more tnan fractional rec6 ssiCns
anywhere. Traders generally seemed Il
clIned 10 believe that the gains might
be continued during the remainder OF
the day, ana perhaps tomorrow also. Tne
news from the strikes was consider-d u
more hopeful, and had a good effect On
sentiment. There was no Indication OF
the tightening OF money rates that has
been predicted for SO many weeks. l.
was said, however, that the hank state
ment for the week would show another
decrease in cash and in surplus reserve.
Investment buying on a moderate scale
continues, but there is no evidence as
yet that the large interests are readJ
for the advance TO begin. In the ah-
sence of such active support by the big
people it is needless to. look for any
sharp or permanent advance in prices
