LOCAL MONEY MARKET.
Good Day. with business I'm
All Brnnchea Active and Heavy.

Tnere was no fault to be found with the local
monetary situation yesterday. an ail-round active
and large business being transacted. and at the
close Of the day bankers expressed themselves as
well satisfied with the business done and the
outlook for the near future. which, they
say. was never more encouraging. Business in
ali branches OF banking has Increased steadily
the past day or two. and yesterday was one OF
the best 81 the week 80 far. and the predictions
made last week that there would be a well-ie-
fined and satisfactory Improvement. bankers say.
Is being fulfilled. All lines Of trade show an
Improvement. ard this Is being rejected in the
transactions at She different banks and trust
companies. which were very busy yesterday from
the time they opened up in the morning until
the closing hour Ia the afternoon. A distinctive
feature Of the day and the one most gratifying
was the excellent demand. which was both
neayy and well distributed. nearly all classes OF
business men being represented at loan counters
duri,g the day. and most. of whom went away
satisfied. as money was In ample supply. In
terest rates were unchanged and the discounting
was on a basis of 5us per cent for call and time
loans. some paper being accepted as low as 4
per cent. but there was not much Of this kind
~ paper presented. Both checking and ,.epoeit-
Ing were active and on a liberal scale and a big
business was reported with country banks.
The clearinghouse report was again very en-
courasing, the hank ciearings being fairly large.
Indicating increased activity In business and
fnn-ciai circles. The postinxs yesterday were
IS. efs, $50, the balances amounting to sss9, SOC.

NEW YORK. Feb. 2a-Notr, ithstanding
the fact that London furnished higher
range OF prices for American stocks and
was a fairly liberal buyer in this market
on the opening Of business, the local
Stock Market opened extremely weak and
showed some material losses in the in
itiaI dealings
There was nothing in the news Of the
morning which would account for the not
ed tendency of prices IN fact the Va
rious features Of the situation. including
that in China. were distinctly more en-
couraging- The market, however. reflect
ed plainly at the opening OF business a
violent outbreak Of liquidation, which
came just a. 4 time when support was
absolutely Withdrawn.
Some OF the more severe losses in the
initial dealings We're scored in ST. Paul
Burlington and Quincy Northern Pacific
and Union Pacific. There were very few
exceptions TO the commonly declining ten
dency. one instance being Ontario and
Western. which was decidedly strong on
reports that the property has been acquir-
ed in the interests of the New York Cen
trail Railroad. The Erie and Reading is
sues were also irmer on more reassuring
reports in regard to the status Of the
fhrea tened labor troubles in the anthra-
cite regions.
After the opening OF the market MAZE
rial rallies appeared in various directions.
bur during the forenoon the trading con-
tinued to exhibit an unusually feverish
tone.

The 'brown-tailed" caterpillar has
been officially considered by the Bos-

are ready to acknowledge that this pest
can produce the skin irritation COM

suburbs of that city. The insect is
destructive Of fruit trees. The hair OF
the worm is brittle and barbed, and
it's action on the skin is regarded ae
purely mechanical, rather than poison
GUS. It Is yet to be determined wheth-
er actual contact with the worm is
necessary to cause the irritation, or
whether this may result through the
blowing about of the hair or fur by
the winds. The doctors incline to the
latter belief. However produced, the
Irritation and resultant sickness are
described as being severe.

CORN KING Down.

Phillips, the Daring Chicago Bull
Operator, Forced to Suspend.
Chicago, Aug. 3.-George H. Phillips.
the corn king" about whom has
clustered many Of the commercial sur
prises of Chicago recently, furnished
another sensation yesterday when he
announced that he was forced for the!
time being to suspend the business Of
the George H. Phillips company.
When the suspension became known
the sensation was profound and rip
pied out like waves over the board of
trade at the opening hour.
This does not mean we are quitting
business" said Mr.. Phillips.
If the unexpected does not happen
the company will appear On the floor
TN the morning ready to
Receive New BUSINESS
through its substitute, Adolph Kemp
ner, a recognized trade trader. An ar
rangement was completed by George
II. Phillips with Mr.. Kempner to take
charge of all new business coming in.
Rumors of defalcations through the
speculations of employees or members;
of the company were dispelled by Rob-
ert Nelson, one Of the expert account
ants, who have been at work on the,
books for ten days. The recognized
fact still in existence Is that winners
in the celebrated May corn deal are
still 2 cents ahead Of the firm, which
means that the company
Internationally Paid
out $2S0,000 to its customers, which
really should be in the strong boxes Of
the company. 1t will be week yeti
before the true condition of affairs Of!
the company are known. Mr.. Phillips
attorney, Mr.. Goodwin, said in re-
Spouse to the question of the likelihood
Of an assignment Or the possibility
that receiver would be asked for:
"The George II. Phillips company,
will open in the morning ready for
business through Adolph Kempner.
There will be no assignment, nor will
a receiver be asked for by the MEM
bers Of the firm or customers
The accountant, so far, has found no
evidence whatever Of criminal irregu-
larities, but simply mistakes due to
the immense amount Of business
handled with inadequate facilities for
caring therefor.
