The Financial World.

Distinct signs of change Of opinion and sentis
ment show In the weeks security market record
Certainly all conditions exist precedent to bet
ter market. There is a superabundance OF idle
money loaning at nominal rates. which. with re-
turn Of confidence. would hasten TO seek more
profitable return from securities. There is every
reason to anticipate crop yields which will con-,
tinue the magnificent record Of production which
has been unbroken for more than five years.
with the single exception Of the short corn crop
of 1901 These premises granted 1t follows that
the farmer and planter will enjoy uninterrupted
prosperity and that cOnsumptive power will ex-
pand to meet Industrial production. checking the
slight depression which industry has suffered
since last summer. Significant is the fact that
already-in early June-the orders on the books
of the United States Steel Corporation for this
years delivery Of steel rails amount to 60 per
cent of the entire output OF 1908. Only theories
point dowuNEard-facts point upward.
Doubtless the dawning realization OF these
facts is responsible for the nascent change Of
opinion In Wall Street. and technically. any de-
cided upward movement will be aided by COM
puIsory buying of securities on the part OF an
enormous short interest.
