Miss Starks modesty in refusing to go
after the women's world high jump rec
ord of 4 feet 4 inches. She did feet,
clearing the bar by six inches, but re-
fused to risk the fame attendant on be-
coming worlds champion, so she

cLEws ON REFuNolNe DEBT.
Says It Has Had Favorable Influence
On the Market.

| New York. March 30.-Henry Clews
in his weekly financial letter says:
| Secretary Shaw's offer to refund
| 800. 600, 900 of government bonds natu-
rally exerted favorable effect upon the
| stock market, causing sharp covering
movement and a fair rally. Its chief
value, however, will b. in facilitating
the banks taking out increased circuta-
| ton This must take time and proba-
bly, will afford partial protection against
an autumn stringency. The immedt-
ate effect upon the money market is,
therefore, not important. AT the most
not more than s5.000,000 in cash will be
released from the Treasury. and the
promptness with which this sum Will
be available depends entirely upon the
rapiGlity with which bends are offered
for redemption. Secretary Shaw has
acted wisely in counteracting as far as
he can the i'll effects Of treasury alb
sorptions; but his resources in this re-
spect are now limited. so the money
market difficulties must necessarily be
very largely left to sef-correction.
For the next two weeks firm rates for
money are likely to prevail. After
wards there should be some improve
ment by the return of currency from
the interior, tho 1T would be an error to
look for real ease for some time to
come. Aside from the April demands
there is positive ina1cquacy in the
supply of loanable funds; because le-
climate demands are heavy, owing to
high prices and the large volume OF
business, while large sums are still
locked up in important financial opera
tons. Added to this, great acticity IS
in progress in real estate operations IN
all parts of the country. the west par
ticularly having big sums invested in
land speculations OF course, while
these conditions last there is little
money to spare. for stock market specu-
lation, and the only natural means of
relief is thru either further liquida-
zion or borrowing abroad On the other
hand liquidation is always unwelcome
and meets with strong resistance when
carried beyond certain limits. while the
late declines, the gradual strengthen
ing of credit and the large volume of
business all tend TO render operations
on the short side hereafter more or less
dangerous It should not be forgotten
also that the present situation has been
to a considerable extent discounted by |
the shrewder class of LEADERS, and that.
unsatisfactory as many factors seem to
be, they have already caused heavy
decline in the general market.
