THE MARKETS
Wall Street Review.

New York. Aug. 21.-Active speculative
liquidation became manifest In todays
stock market and at the close the selling
movement was urgent and somewhat
the day some stand was made against
the tendency to depression and few
stocks We're pushed UP at different times
as u sustaining influence upon the mar
ket. but the selling to realize elsewhere
in the market was steadily going on all
the time. At the last. the liquidation
seemed to have proceeded to such an ex-
tent, that the efforts to support the mar
ket were withdrawn and all semplance
of resistance to the weakness dsap-
peared. The stocks which We're notably
viously started out at declines this morn
ing and showed the largest effect of the
selling pressure. at the last. Some small
gains were retained even at the last IN
few of the stocks which had risen earlier,
but in others the gains were more than
wiped out. The upward movement in the
Denver and Rio Grande stocks which de-
veloped during the day after q period Of
Denver and Rio Grande closed with a
substantial net loss: Louisville. and

and Ontario and Western, the other dem

was also an unsettling influence upon the
whole market. The failure of the specu-
lative operator who has led the advance
in the stock to obtain control of the
property has resulted in heavy speculative
liquidation. There was a notable absence
of demand at the close even from the
professional interest which must have
been active on the downward course of
prices during. the day and the closing
tone was distinctly weak. There was no
actual new development to account for
there was a very material change in SEN

a reaction. EXtravagant as were the eX
pectations as to the prombtitude and eX-
tent of the measure which Mr. Morgan
would take to improve the situation, there
was some disappointment this morning
over the delay. The hope seemed to be
that Mr.. Morgan's hurried visit to his
office Immediately upon landing from the

FAIRBANKS In CHICAGO.


CHICAGO, Oct. S.-Senator Charles w.
Fairbanks, of Indiana, was the central fig
ure in the speaking in William Lorimer's
big tent last night. A large audience was
present to hear the distinguished Indiana
senator talk and his address was we'll re-
ceived. In connection with the issues dis
cussed the senator said the Republicans
would make a mistake if hey did not see
tina Mr.. Lorimer was returned to Con-
greSS.
A considerable part of the address was a
defense of the American policy in the Phil
ippines. He said in part:
Every one else, men of other nations
who are familiar with the situation in the
Philippines, will grant the United States
credit for results which have been OBJ
tanned in those islands. The exceptions
to this rule are a few leaders in the Demo-
cratic party.
''They nave seized on a few instances of
sporadic cruelty committed by the soldiers
and have endeavored to argue that the
general conduct Of the army has been in
humane. L do not need the testimony of
army leaders to believe that the American

American soldier does his work humanely
and without cruelty.
