ing or by reacting the movement OF one
day on the following.
Speculative excitement has continued
and sentiment has remained on the sue
of the bull element, but the bulk OIL the
operations have been professional IN cha.
acter or in the hands of powerful capl-
talists. who have held the market In con-
troll. number of important develop
ments have stimulated the speculative
spirit and influenced market operations.
The largest share of attention has Deeh
given to the money situation, both pres
ent and prospective, and this mas peeh the
only apparent check on the rampant
spirit of speculation. 1t was plain from
the beginning of the week that the money
conditions in New York were acute ana
that the depletion of loanable funds mas
reached a point of practical exhaustion
Call money loaned at 30 per cent on Iues-
day the first business day OF the Week.
and 40 per cent on Wednesday. After pus-
mess hours on Wednesday the announce
ment was made at washington that the
measure of the treasury aid TO gold IN
ports which were adopted April l. would
be nut in force again. but not until Mon
dav. As the use Of the facilities thus ex-
tended for securing gold abroad was thus
deferred. money on call again rose TO 70
per cent on Thursday. But the high pre-
vailing rate had the effect or attracting
sufficient funds from outside sources 10
hreak the rate to below per cent be-
fore the close on that day. The position
of the banks disclosed in last week 8
statement and the currency movement OF
the week offered ample explanation OF
money stringency. The sub-treasury oper-
ations alone had Withdrawn from the
banks by the middle of the week almost
double as much as the total surplus above
statement, and shipments to the interior
through other sources to meet harvesting
needs were on a large scale. London and
Paris interpoked obstacles to the with
drawal of gold by New York, and the
necessity of stock market liquidation
seemed imminent. The full effect or the
decision to advance government FUNDS 10
national banks to the amount of gold en-
gagged abroad for the period OF transfer,
thus saving interest charges to the banks,
will not be known until next week. when
the order becomes effective. Assurance
Is felt, however, that considerable
amount of gold will be shipped to New
York next week. The effectiveness OF TINS
device for encouraging gold imports when
n was adopted In April last was OBJ
served by the attendant circumstances
New York banks had the means OF ac-
ousinting themselves with the tacllltles
before the facts were known In foreign
money markets, and this enabled them
to secure the requisite supply of exchange
hills in the market before the price was
affected by the publication of the treas
urv departments plan. The notice In ad-
vance in the present instance does away
with this advantage to the New YORK
banks.

COTTON MARKET
OPENED STEADY
Better Gables Forces Advance
of | TO 5 Points
WEATHER is FAVORABLE
Possible Demand of Cotton Association
for Minimum of 10 Cents Is Partly
Offset BY Reports of
Large Crop.

New York. September S.-The cotton
market opened steady at. an advance of
las points in response to better cables
than expected and reports of firmer con-
ditions. The action of the Southern Cot
ton association in urging growers to
demand a minimum price Of 10 cents
seemed partly offset by indefinite rumors
that the associations report indicated a
very large crop. and fluctuations during
the early session were nervous and ir-
regular. The weather was considered IA
vorable and there was considerable SELL
ing, but shorts were covering for over
the weekend and prices in the middle OF
the morning were within point or two
of the opening figures. Receipts at the
ports today, 1924 bales, against 9164 last
week and 320s7 last year. For the week.
10000 bales, against 72,746 last week and
2134 SS last year. Today's receipts at New
Orleans, Piss bales against 2o95 last year,
and at Houston. 57,s11, against 104a8 last

New York. September S-Priees moved

after the publication of the bank state
ment, showing a deficit below the legal

IS an expression of unimpaired confidence
on the part of the powerful spectators
who have the present market in hand, of
the adequacy of available resources to
replenish the deficient supplies of money,
and to maintain the prices of stocks in
the market. It is pointed out as justify
Ing this confidence that upwards of &c.
100000 and possibly more than sl5,O00,OOO
will be available to the New York mar
ket on Monday, when the treasury order
for deposit of government funds against
gold engagements goes into effect those
figures representing the estimates of the
amounts of gold already secured for i'm
port. 1t is added that the beneficient atti-
tude Of the treasury authorities to safe
guard the money market against harmful
atringency may and that means for insur-
ing this remain at the command of the
treasury. This will include the amount ad-
vanced against the gold imports which
will be returned to the treasury upon the
receipt of the gold and will be available
for use in other measures for later re-

The feeling of confidence on this score
was by no means universal, however,
the amount of the deficit in bank reserves
proving rather staggering as coming on
fhe threshold of the annual flow of cur
rency to the interior from New York.
Not since the financial depression of 1893
have the bank figures shown such a
deficit when clearing house reports were
issued in New York by July and August.
Foreign stock markets were disturbed
today by New Yorlx's heavy requisition
for gold and discounts advanced in Lon
don and Berlin, the rate in London rising
above the level of recent rates and fore
shadowing an advance by that institution.
The weeks outgo of $16 40S,100 cash from
the banks measures the full loss by the
known movements of money, correets the
discrepancy in last weeks statement and
leaves several million dollars still to be
accounted for. 1t is probable that New
York trust companies have begun to with
draw cash from the New York banks to
increase their cash reserves in compliance
with the law which requires them to hold
I per cent of deposits in cash on October
]. compared with the 3 per cent required
after July l. The increased obligation
will call for an addition of about $40, 100000
to cash holdings of the trust companies.
The market closed strong, near the top.
