CONFIDENCE IS STRONG.

In discussing our national con.
ditions, financial and otherwise,
Henry Clews, the New York
banker, in his weekly financial
letter last week, says:
Ne great keenness Of percep.
ton is required to observe that a
decided improvement in conf
dence has taken place during the
past two or three months. This
has been due, of course, partly to
q natural reaction from the ex'
IRENE depression which ushered
III the current year, but mainly
to III actual betterment on con-
ditions, chief Of which is the
passing OF any serious uncer.
tainty regarding the crops.
OF all factors in the situation
much the most important is that
we are now gathering an abun.
dant and profitable harvest; no.
quite SO abundant as at one time
expected yet sufficiently so to.
secure ocr agricuitrrists anothe,
prosperous year. It makes one
shrink 10 think what might have
happened had this been q year Of
crop failures, succeeding the
series Of disasters which began
in 1902 and continued through
1905. The good harvests of the
current year have not only saved
the country from a fresh out
break of liquidation but have
really gone q long way toward
restoring the country finances
and industries to a position Of
normal soundness and stability.
Another year of profitable agri
culture should afford tine and
means for better taking care Of
the mass Of indigestible securi.
ties created during the last six or
seven years. There is still e
great mass Of indigestibles left,
but these will no longer be the
menace they once were. Some
will be recognized ere long;
some will settle down to their in
trinsic value, and others will dis.
appear from the market entirely;
thus permitting Of a gradual in
stead Of a forced liquidation, as
well as a wide and consequently
less serious distribution of losses.
For all of these very important
advantages we are indebted, as
already said, to a good harvest.
The most important hindrances
to further recovery are the war,
the labor situation, the high levll
Of commodity prices and the less
favorable tendency Of our foreign
trade. Concerning the war, the
extraordinary successes of Japan
are unfortunately not conducive
t. early peace. Mediation may
be attempted b. some power with
G view Of stopping the awful
waste Of life and wealth; but
Russia is least likely to think of
peace while Inundated; and not
until the Gear has accompii shed
something toward a restoration
of Russian prestige will pe1cs.
proposals be considered; es.
paciaily az Japan would prob.
ably impose harshsr terms attss

MINNEAPOLIS

MinueapofiS-Big receipts bore heavily
on wheat and put December under 81 u
to start the session. Then the market
firrned IID to 81 125s and held quiet and
steady for a time. There was consider
able short selling early. Three hundred
cars more than year ago was what
Minneapolis had to show or 655 cars
against 355. This with an increase for
the week of about 200, 900 bushels in Min
neaDolis elevator stocks, discouraged many
small holders The bear argument now
most frequently heard is that wheat can
not be buIled while more wheat than last
year Is coming into Minneapolis, and there
is much reason in this, yet to the bulls
who are bulliSl1 for a long pull this does
not mean much. They figure that since
the crop is lighter and the movement
heavier the thing cannot keep up for
ever and while they may have TO stand
long siege of it, the time will come when
there will not be much wheat in the coun-
try Aside from this 1t has been poor
run Of wheat to date. Approximately
there has been 10 per cent of No north
ern since the new wheat began to come,
and Is per cent of No. 2 and No. 3. and
the balance has been No or lower. Close
to 20 per cent has been winter wheat

HEAVY BUYING IN STEEL
PREFERRED BEARS BURDEN OF
SUPPORTING PRICE LEVEL
Reported Settlement of the Northern Sc
curities Contest Causes Prices to Jump
and OFFICIAL Disclaimers Do Not NulIify
Effects of Report


NEW YORK. Sept. 30-Gnited States
Steel preferred bore practically the Whole
burden of supporting the price level IN
the stock market up to late IN the day,
when there was a revival OF the rumor
that a settlement had been arrived at Dy
compromise of the contest over the man
ner OF distribution of the assets or the
Northern Securities company. A jump OF
4 points in Northern Securities ON the
curb resulted and Union PACING rose IN
sympathy on the stock exchange. Inc
Western railroad stocks came into bet
ter demand after that and threw on
the dragging influence which held them
in check early in the day. Official dis
chalmers Of the reported settlement OF the
Northern Securities suit did not seem
to alter the effect of the report.
The buying Of United States Steel pre-
ferred was in enormous volume. The IN
dicatiOns that some of the demand was
coming from influential banking houses
added TO its sentimental influence. There
was no news to account for the movement
beyond the reports of the expanding de-
mand for iron and the inference that
larger consumption of steel and its fin
iShed forms would be sequel. There
were runaOrS in circulation again that
the corporation was aVaillng itself OF its
privilege TO convert preferred stock into
the second mortgage bonds, but there was
no official sanction for this report. The
strength of the stock was not affected by
assertions that prices OF steel biliets were
being shaded below the price agreed upon
nor by reported large orders placed with
outside tin plate makers at prices below
the corporation S schedule.

Due to Cotton Report

The laggard movement in the cotton
carriers was attributed to the publica-
tion by an authority in the trade of an
estimated condition of the cotton crop for
Oct. l showing a large deterioration from
the Sept. l condition. Il was obvious that
the strength of United States Steel pre-
ferred was ayai1ed of TO a very large ex-
tent TO take profits all through the gener-
al list and with the exception of the New
York public service stocks and a few
other speeialties, there were no impor-
tant advances until the late rise in Union
Pacific released the market from some
part Of the restraint upon it.
The tranquility of the money market
leSSened the influence OF a forecast OF
the currency movement which gave prom

1t will be noted that last year the
average of the private reports was 81
above the governments report, while last
month the average Of the private reports
was 6.2 below the government report
The average of the private reports for
this month Is TIA, and 1 am inclined to
think that the government report will not
be far from these figures A government
report of r. assuming conditions from
now on to be the same as last year, would
Indicate a crop of II, III, 009. This makes
no allowance for the comparative I'M
munitv from damage by frost which this
crop enjoys over that OF last year on ac-
count Of the advancement of the season.
A government report Of 72, assuming
conditions from now on to be the same as
in 1902 with which year so far as weather
and maturity are concerned the present
season most closely corresponds would
indicate a crop Of 13, 1874, 600 bales. I am
inclined to think, however, that the gov
erument report has been greatly exagger-
ated in the present instance as possible
market factor. and am of the opinion that
no matter what its showing may be the
market will decline substantially after its
issuance under the weight of the heaviest
October movement ON record and grow
ing appreciation of the fact that this crop
is an abundant one and probably much
in excessNof the prospective demand at
present prices. Theodore II. Price.
