PREDICTS TROUBLE
FROM HIGH MONEY
Henry Clews Believes That an End to
Reckless Speculation Is
Coming.

NEW YORK, oct. 20.-In his regular
weekly letter issued today Henry
Clews expresses alarm at the advance in
Bank OF England rate and says:
The sudden and unexpected advance
IN the Bank Of England rate came like
a bombshell in the market. The bank
rate is now per cent. the highest rate
since the Barring failure sixteen years
ago. This step was. Of course, neces-
STATED by the impoverished condition
OF the Pank Of England reserve, and the
prospect of fresh demands upon its
stock Of gold from Egypt and the
United States. The decline in foreign
exchange in this market on Thursday
was a plain intimation Of our intention
to draw more gold from the other side,
and the advance In the bank rate was
undoubtedly in sheer self-defensc. The
consequences of this action can hardly
he predicted at this writing. Its effect
upon stock speculation must be unfav-
orable, and prices must fall more og
less in consequence. We have for the
time being at least used up all avail
able supplies OF money ana our credit
system is greatly extended. not perhaps
10 the limit of sOundness. vet quite uu
to the margin of safety 1t means that
there is an end coming to reckless spec
ulatiO1, and that nothing but liquidation
of greater or less severity can restore
equilibrium

RAILROAD EARNINGS.

Gross earnings of all railroads in the

per cent over last year.
The classified statement for Septem-
Der shows gross earnings Of United

classes OF roads contribute to the gain.
notably the Central Western and South
western roads. Traffic earnings on the
New York Central. one of the larger
Eastern trunk lines. are 1 per cent in
excess Of a year ago. and in the South,
where the cotton movement IS consid-
erablv behind last year, railroad earn
ings show per cent increase. When
il Is considered that earnings a year
ago were heavier than ever before in
September, the increase now over Sep
tember 1905, emphasizes the exceptional
activity in trade this year.

DEMORALIZED STATE
OF COTTON MARKET
Weak Opening With Drop of Twenty
Points on Bad Reports From
Liverpool.

NEW YORK, Oct. 20-Today's cotton
market opened very weak. with prices
ranging from Il to 13 points below last
nights closing quotations on the initial
trades. December broke 70 20 points un-
der last nights closing as that was the
weakest option. This decline was cue
to a continuation of decentralization on
the Liverpool market as the result Of
the money crisis at London. Spot cot
ton at Liverpool closed 20 points lower
Our market would have gone much
lower, but for cold and rainy weather

There vas no great pressure to sell and
the market gradually hardened and not
only recovered all the early sharp de
cline, but actually went two 10 four
points higher than last nights closing

was unchanged at lie for middling.

Power Of Comptroller Show.

The law passed at the last session Of
Congress placing the savings banks Of
the District under the control OF the
Treasury, has been variously criticised
as not being entirely adequate. Il has
been claimed that under this law the
powers Of the Comptroller are ciTcum-
scribed and that they are OF an ad-
visory rather than a mandatory nature.
He could. IL has been said. express his
disapproval OF any action. but has no
power 10 enforce changes.
In the recent case OF the Aetna Bank
ing Corporation Il y ould appear that the
Comptroller. when satisfied that the con-
ditions demanded his attention, immedi-
ately found sufficient law and as prompt
~ put 10 in force by placing q receiver in
charge.
The law would seem ample for all re-
quirements. as II says that the Comp
trolIer may close and take possession
OF any Of the banks placed under his
supervision by act Of Congress Of June
.. 1896.

LONDON STOCK MARKET
CONDITIONS UNCERTAIN

LONDON, Oct. 2O.-Trading on the
stock exchange had somewhat steadier
tone. so far as British securities were
concerned owing to the idea that the
Bank of England's per cent discount
rate will stop the exports of gold. Con
soIs showed no further loss, but foreign
ers were weak on continental sales.
Americans were inactive They open
ed below parity and further declined
during the session under offerings at
parity for American account and fears
of a poor New York bank statement.
Money was in good demand and dearer

Charles C. Gates & Co. in their let

took somewhat optimistic view of the
coming week in the stock market. They
said:

been expected, and IL is doubtful wheth-
