figuring upon how much of a tip the cus- toner will stand for.
 "If man alone goes Into cafe and his check for breakfast, say, amounts to forty-five cents, he will usually give the waiter a dollar bill. He will receive in re- turn three dimes and quarter If the waiter brought back two quarters and a nickel. the chances are that he would get only the nickel as a tip, instead of the dime which he does get.
 'if the man Is accompanied by a friend and the check amounts to seventy cents, the waiter will bring a nickel and quar- ter. He knows that no man win tip a waiter with a nickel in the presence of a guest. Therefore, he gets the quarter The three dimes, peculiar combination, forthcoming so readily in the other in- stance, cannot be found in the change from seventy-cent check.
 If the check for two happens to be only ninety cents the wise waiter will bring you the change. a ten-cent piece, in such an open and promiscuous manner that you will tip him with an extra dime, If you are afraid of being thought stingy.
 "If you are indiscreet enough to have a fifty-cent check. you will get two quar- ters in return at the best restaurants, and some nickels and dimes at places where the walters are not so avaricious.
 If your check comes to S120 and s1. 25 you will get your change in quarters and be compelled to leave one of them on the plate.
 'If your check ranges between sl-50 and s2, and you pay with five dollar bill. you will get two paper dollars. sl in the shape of two quarters and silver half, and some small change. you leave less than a quarter you will probably have to find your own hat.
 For any amount above g 1t is a safe bet that at least one in change will include a silver half and two quarters. If you look prosperous, and are accompanied by a lady, this dollar in coin will probably

One of the gravest and most puzzling features of the financial situation is the failure of the extraordinary liquidation which has been in progress to be reflect ed in any substantial shrinkage of bank loans. The losses of the associated banks of New York continue in excess of deposits It is evident that while large loans are being called on one side, fa- vored people on the other side have been holding out their hands for all the money thus made available. There are just as many stocks existing today as existed a year ago. Commission houses are cara rying only about one-third as many as they were carrying at the top of the bull movement, liquidation on the part of outsiders having reduced commission houses lines to the smallest average, perhaps in five years. Liquidation brings stocks directly back to Wall street and all the securities that have been sold back to Wall street on this decline are somewhere around. most of them, no doubt, in bank vaults. Some of the most competent observers of stock mar ket conditions insist that there can be no substantial improvement in values until loans are reduced. The banks cer- tainly are not prepared to finance a bull movement even though conditions war ranted operations for the advance. Mean while the investment demand for high class securities, which invariably pre- cedes an improvement in stock market conditions is very backward With money worth 5lk and per cent, securities yield- ing and per cent are not as-attractive as they might be. The impossibility of finding a market for new securities on anything like satisfactory terms has forced corporations of very high credit such, for example, as Chicago, Burling- ton and Quincy and Union Pacific, into the market as borrowers at 51k and 6 per cent on their notes.

SOME LARGE lNAVST0RS
BY W. e. NICHOLAS.

New York, July 25.-The enormous shrinkage of security values during the past nine months has been felt by the various financial institutions that were heavy holders of stocks and bonds, es- peciaIly the life insurance companies
 During the bull movement, prominent officials of certain life insurance compa- nies were induced to accept partnerships in some of the leading banking houses In Wall street. Untrained in the wiles of the stock market community they were drawn into the stream at a time when enthusiasm was at it's height and some of them, 1t is necessary to relate sacrificed their cool judgment for pros poets more glittering than had ever been presented to them before and they are now beginning to realize why they were sought out and fiattered into making Wall street connections. Various dnan- cial institutions, insurance companies not excepted, invested heavily in securi- ties at the prices that prevailed a year ago.
