BANKER CLEws' VIEWS.
The Financial Outlook az Seen
from Wall street.

New York, Jan. 1S.-It is now haz-
ardous to offer any positive opinions
concerning the immediate future of
the stock market If natural forces
were to have free play, we should prob
ably witness a period of declining val
ues; but there are a series of circum-
stances which can be readily utilized
by the big bull leaders to delay any
general downward movement. For in
stance, the money market promises
to remain in an easy condition for
some weeks to come, and bank re-
serves should show rising averages.
General trade continues very active;
is in sound condition as a rule: and
declining prices in some commodities
from extremely high levels are rather
stimulating to business than otherwise,
inasmuch as contracts have frequently
been held back awaiting more reason
able terms. Again, in spite of the
great increase in production in the
leading industries there are still few
indications of oversupply, consump-
tion still progressing on an abundant
scale. This is particularly true of the
iron trade, which continues to sur
pass all expectations. Finally. rail-
road traffic shows few signs of abate-
ment, reporting instead handsome
gains over the big returns of last
year, and this in spite of the loss in
the corn crop.
There is no particular occasion for
taking a pessimistic view of the imme-
date future of the market 1t is suffi-
cient to say that large quantities of
securities are held in strong hands for
sale at high figures but while natural
conditions do not favor any extreme
advance, the situation is such that
sheer manipulation may force prices of
stocks to a higher level. We are likely.
however, in the immediate future to
see a good trading market, as there will
be frequent setbacks and rallies, but /
continue to recommend conservative
dealings, especially in the industrial
properties

her smokestacks were gone. When
the watchman dug into the lava he
found here and there fragments OF
human remains. All that was left OF
the ship was her hull, and that, being
iron, had escaped destruction.
Hearing that Capt. Freeman was
at the Hotel Felite, we called on him.
l wanted to get from his own lips the
story Of his escape. / was unprepared
for the terrible sight which greeted
my eyes when l entered the room.
Capt. F'reemans face was burned
to the color of teak wood and large
patches of skin and flesh We're burned
from his bones. here and there. Both
his hands were swathed in bandages.
His hair and mnstache We're gone, his
eyes were tied open and he was in
great pain. When l told him who l
was he talked great deal. to relieve
himself, he said, of his suffering.
He said the Roddam had been in
St Pierre only an hour when the erup-
ton occurred. He was talking to an
agent in boat alongside when big
black squan approached the ship
from the island. 1t was like black
wall, travelled fast and was accom-
panied by tidal wave and deafen-
ing roar. The sun disappeared I'M
mediately.
Capt. Freeman said that he shouted
to everybody to stand clear. An in
stant later the air was filed with flame
and falling patches of fire. The ship
was Immediately ablaZe from end to
end. and the crew and laborerS aboard
began to rush about, frantic with pain.
AS nearly as he could remember there
were forty-two persons aboard the
ship, only six of whom survived. The
ship keeied over when the tidal wave
hit her and nearly capszed. Then
she righted and the falling shower of
fire continued.
Capt. Freeman ran into the chart
room, but was driven out again by
flames that came in at the port hole.
Then he rushed to the engine room
telephone and signaied the engineer to
