Alexandria County.

Few people realize the rapidity with
which Alexandria county is upbuilding.
A birds eye view of the county at the
present time will show new houses
going up in every direction, some OF
them very costly and all Of them pre-
tentious. During the past ten years the
wealth of the county has increased ten
fold and many pieces of property are
worth ten times their assessed value.
There is not today vacant house in the
county and the demand for houses by
tenants far exceeds the supply. In
twenty years Alexandria county will be
a great city with a hundred thousand
inhabitants and twenty thousand homes
if the present rate of growth is MAIN
tanned. and with electric railways at
almost every door and costly villas on
every hill Alexandria county will be the
prondest and richest spot on the map
of Virginia. Already the real estate
transfers of the county exceed those oil
Alexandria city three to one and we
can boast of costlier homes IN the
county and of ten men of wealth to
every one that can be found in that
ancient city Monitor.

minal construction contemplated by the company would be done through the medium of a terminal company organ ized for the purpose. But 1t was real ized that New York Central credit must be relied upon for raising the money. The continued stream of New York Central stock coming upon the market was sufficient in itself to take away the effect of disclaimers of contemplated stock issue or bond issue. Stocks Of the subsidiary Vanderbilt companies which are seldom dealt in also suffered wide declines, Lake Erie and Western preferred losing g, Cleveland, C., c. and St. Louis and Peoria and Eastern 6la and Canada Southern 2hs. Chicago and Northwestern also suffered a 21s point decline and the preferred 3, the latter with a recovery. st. sf s
 There were other notable declines among high grade investment stocks, such as New Jersey Central. which lost 6, Delaware and Hudson 5Ss, Lacka- wanna and American Express and Pullman S%. The occasional rallies of the market indicated the large part played by professional short selling in the weakness. y sa
 But large amounts of long stock were dislodged by the bear tastics of the pro- fessional traders and each successive rally until the last one was availed of as basis for renewed selling. The !. first effective rally of the day came af- ter the publication of estimates of the weekly cash changes which showed an excess of receipts over shipments on the interior movement of over S, ,00O, GOO. This is larger than the s2,75s.0O0 loss on sub-treasury operations, thus indicating a small net cash gain by the banks. To-morrow's gold shipments of s2,O0o.- 900, however do not figure in this esti- mate. The large receipts on balance from the interior were a, decided sur prise in view of the movement of inter- for exchange markets. The grain mark cts reflected the large closing up of ac- counts in expectation of the appearance of the monthly crop statement after the closing to-day and spectators in stocks were not able to get much light on the crop situation from the movement of the grain markets. The market closed about steady on the late rally.
 Bonds were weak in sympathy with stocks. Total sales par value $2,1s0,O0O. United States bonds were unchanged on the last call.

YESTERDAYS STOCK MARKET. ,

YESTERDAYS STOCK MARKET. IN N Stocks were virtually demoralized this morning. The latest theory with regard to New York Central is that the company has borrowed s1S,0oo,0o0 for a year at per cent. This is taken as an admission that new securities can not be sold at the present time and that the credit of the New York Central cor poratiorl, whose per cent. stock is selling at a substantial premium over par is not good enough to borrow money under the legal rate. On top of this came renewed pressed against the steel stocks, although it was no more pronounced than against the shares of the granger railways, which became heavy on further doleful predictions as to what this afternoons crop report will reveal There is also a very dis appointment bank statement to-mor- row staring the market in the face with the knowledge that no matter how bad it is it will not measure the full weak ness of the situation as much of the gold shipping this week will not appear to anything like its full extent in the report for this week. There is a large proportion of buying orders from what is known as the outside public but Wall streets source of supply for stocks seems to be unlimited. Taken all through the market has acted in a most discouraging manner.
