STOCK BROKERS' VIEWS.
NEW VOpK

NEW YORK, June "a, 1905
A. o. Brown and Company in their stock
letter today say: There is much diversion
OK opinion In regard to the recent strength.
some OF the market followers are inclined
10 believe that the long expected upward
movement has been resumed, while others
nolo that the bulge Is almost entirely pro-
fessional and lacks the active support and
interests necessary to further Improvement
Inc absence of liquidation and the heavy
outstanding short interest would easily ac-
count for the gains made in the past few
DAYS, and its continuance depends, of
course, upon the attitude Of the banking
interests. Until 1t becomes clearer that
they are ready to back up the movement
we must hesitate to advise buying, except
on reasonable recessions, despite the fact
that conditions generally are favorable to
Improvement"
Bartlett. Frazier & Darlington, in their
daily letter on the stock market, say to-
day:
AT the present time the advances in the
prices of stocks seem to reflect the best
Judgment OF the most important interest in
the financial world The men best qualified
to speak on conditions are conservatively
bullish, and their conservatism is based on
time rather than on the present existence
or detrimental Influences. In other words,
a quiet strong market Is likely for the
greater part of the summer. and any weak
ness that may develop may be set down to
PROFESSIONAL operations rather than to
reversal of position by the big interests.
The stock market is likely to follow the
crops until after the harvest OF course,
there is a variety Of estimates. but 1t is our
opinion that good wheat crop and
bumper corn crop are assured The crops
are the things 10 watch during the next
few months, and as the crops go. so will
the market. We expect big crops and very
naturally a good market. Railroad earn
ings are steadily increasing and business
is bound to be good. One repressive inf1u-
ence is likely to be the money market. We
have pointed out before that the demands
from the interior this fall is likely to be
large and that reserves are low
TT will undoubtedly induce firmer money.
Another factor in the money situation is
that, whether peace is concluded or not,
we are likely to ship s25, 100000 gold to
Europe This will represent Japanese
money which is now deposit at this
center. 1t must be borne in mind. however,
that no one expects a real stringency. A
sign of the times is a better bond market,
which is encouraging, but there is also
negative side to it in that the investment
demand is not so large might reasonably
have been expected. The favorable factors
in the situation are the more potent in our
estimation, and stocks will gradually work
higher.
