THE DAYS OPERATIONS IN STOCKS,

Trading in stocks yesterday was on a small
scale and for most issues lower prices were
recorded. The present halt in speculative Oper-
atoms appears to be due, than anything
else, to the uncertainty to the future of
money IN the present week money has tight
ened rapidly. Except for the engagements OF
gold abroad for import the outlook in money
would be rather forbidding The inquiry from
the South and West for funds is much larger
than had been expected, and it now is believed
that it will continue later than usual. The bank
statement last Saturday deludng. It is
thought that at the time it made up the
surplus reserve a fact, was wiped out.
There certainly has been calling Of loans
considerable scale in the last three four days,
which means that the banks have been COM
PEELED to resort TO extraordinary measures to
meet legal requirements.
There is Of course, no way of computing the
amount of gold that will be brought from Eu-
rope on the present movement. It may be little,
it may be much. All depends on the state of
money, not only here but abroad. This country
has enormous credit in Europe, but money
must be worth more here than in Europe to in
duce a settlement of any part Of that credit.
At the moment money is dearer here than it is
abroad, and it looks as if this would be the
case for a considerable time to come. There
fore, it seems probable that considerable gold
will be brought from the other side in the near
future. Much gold has come from Australia in
the last few months but this fact has not had
much weight in making stock values.
Manhattan Railway a prominent feature
Of the trading. The pools that have been made
up in the stock Were buyers, with the result that
a gain in price was recorded. It has been fig
Cred out that when the company's lines
electrically equipped net earnings will be
mously increased. Possibly, out this is
thing to be proved. The company has curtailed
it's service very much in the last year So but
at the same time its receipts have not been
ported as having suffered. The explanation is
tolerably simple. The company sold a. big lot Of
stock, the proceeds of which were to be used in
paying for the electrical equipment. The money
thus secured has been lent out. and has been
earning 2 or 3 per cent The returns on this
money have been counted earnings. When
the money is expended for equipment it cannot
be employed as an Garner in loans. Then the
company must fall back on its actual earning
capacity.
There was pressure on Peoples Gas all day.
and this stock sustained a serious fall in price.
There was liquidation in Sugar Refining. The
railroad issues were quiet.

THE FLOUR MILLING COMPANY.

A. c. Loring, of the Northwestern Consolidated
Milling Company, says:
My understanding is that when the United States
Flour Milling Company is reorganized under the
name of the Standard Flour Milling Company
the new corporation will not attempt to operate
any of the properties it may be possessed of. but
will depend upon its revenues from the leasing of
these various properties local corporations to be
formed each milling point. These various local
corporations will be as distinct and separate as
they prior to their purchase by the United
States company Two of the largest milling con-
Germs in this city were up TO last year owned by
one of stockholders and leased to a second cor
poration, which operated them, and exactly the
same procedure will take place when the new
Standard company leases its properties to the local
corporations hereafter to be formed.
The Northwestern Consolidated never taken
into the United States company. The Trust Com
pany, called, did own a majority of the stock
of the Northwestern Consolidated Company but
that corporation has always been entirely separate
and distinct, so far as its operation and manage
ment are concerned. The mills at Milwaukee and
Buffalo have already been leased to their original
owners and the leasing of the other properties will
continue until they all in the hands of local
concerns.

GRAIN MOVEMENT.

The railroads brought into Chicago in the first
nine months of the year 2OS.O74 cars of grain de-
crease of Is $50 cars or S3 per cent compared with
the corresponding period last year The decrease
is to extent explained by the fact that cars
of larger size are being used this year Com
parison with the period OF 1898 shows a de-
crease of 1925 cars The movement of grain in
September was reduced by reason Of bad weather
in the Northwest which nterfered with harvesting
and the sending of grain to the markets. Low
prices also were a factor. inducing farmers hold
their wheat
