New York, Sept 8. - Persistent
 strength in the fact of continued high
 money, which at one time ruled at 10
 per cent. and further draining of
 local resources was the most striking feature of to-dav's stock market. Un- der Londons lead the list ignored last

 acute before the end of the first hour,
 when demand loans were quoted at 8

 more than recover its loss at the close.
 Other early features in point of strength and activity were Missouri Pacific, St, Paul, Baltimore and Ohio, Wabash is-

Review of Yesterdays Stock Market and the Present Outlook.
 New York, Sept. S.-General expecta- tions were that after Saturdays state ment the tendency of the market, unless helped in some way or other, as far as the monetary situation was concerned, would be for lower level of prices for the majority of stocks. There can hard ly be any question that if the public had latterly been allured into this market and the large interests had been in a position where they, contrary to their present interests had found it to their benefit to further raise rates of money they would not have exerted every means to keep rates down, but would demand through their financial institutions the highest rates possible.
 Fortunately for the public they have been sailing close to the shore, realizing profits where found and left the manip- ulatory part of the market to parties l 'WnO are III. Y, UIueF LIle free OIISFluS | commercial bills against exports the exchange was quite weak; actual short rates down to 4S6 20 and the belief is that before long, especially if European discounts remain so low as at present, gold imports will take place. All we can learn is that demand for our raw prod ucts continues large from foreign sources.
 Money loaned as high as 10 per cent. on call when rates eased off our market became quite firm again, showing that it is more or less dependent upon the monetary question which we have pro- claimed for weeks past.
 General conditions seem good. Crop news is better for cereals and cotton.
 Wheat was easier because of improv- ed weather conditions. Cotton was easier and lower because of heavy crop movement and large | long interest. We think that prices for January options are nearly point where purchases cannot hurt very much.
 The stock market during the last hour showed strong recuperatiye powers with last prices at nearly the best of the day and the close firm.
 Total sales 902,100 shares.

AMERICAS CUP CHALLENGE
LIPTON TO FORWARD IT WITHIN
 FORTNIGHT.

Races Probably to be Sailed in July or August.
 Rothsa, Scotland, Sept. S.-In an in- terview to-day with representative of the Associated Press, Sir Thomas Lip ton informed the latter that he would mail formal challenge for the Amer ica's cup to the New York Yacht club within two or possibly three weeks. If, however, in the meantime, any British yachtsman or combination of yachts men challenged, they would have his cordal assistance. and the use of the Shamrock as a trial horse, absolutely free of cost.
 Sir Thomas Lipton added that the stories about his new boat being already half built were false.
 Members of the New York Yacht club were not surprised at the receipt of the above news. They had expected a chal- lenge soon and thought it likely that Sir Thomas Lipton would not be long in making it, owing to his known desire for early racing, and his failure to ac- complish it thus far.
 W. Butler Duncan, jr., manager of the Columbia in her races with the Sham rock IT., said that the men who would be called upon to defend the cup were not particularly pleased with the pros pect, but they would defend the cup to the best of their ability. He was amused at the statement in morning newspaper that there was a possibility that Sir Thomas might challenge with a schooner, as one built to the limit of the deed of gift would be. fully as hard to handle as ninety-foot sloop. If Sir Thomas challenged in the time stat ed it would bring the race in the latter part of July or early in August.
 J. Fred Tams, for many years mem Der of the Americas cup committee was glad to know that the matter would soon be settled, but the club would take no action on the subject or any steps toward building until the actual chal. lenge was at hand. He thought that the reason why the challenge was com ing earlier than usual was that Sil Thomas wanted to try his fortune ir the trade winds of August, which were steadier than the breezes of the latter part of September and in October. Dur. ing August, and, in fact, in part of Sep tember the winds came from the south west, and were fairly steady as a rule They began to show force at abou noon, and grew steady and held so unti sunset, which would give six or eigh hours of good sailing weather. On tho other hand, the winds in October were generally out of the northwest, ant varied great deal, sometimes as mucf as three points. They were unsteady too, and at times so soft that they would blow right through the sails.
 MT. Tarns also said that even if Sii Thomas did challenge with a schooner and he did not think there was the leas' chance of it, the club would not be un der obligations to meet him with 2 schooner when they had a faster boat ii big single sticker. They did not know much about sailing schooners on th' other side any way, and it was improb able that they would do anything differ ent in regard to rig of boat from wha they had done in recent years.
