sources as to the Likelihood of escaping
stringency. This confidence is coupled al
most invariably with the condition that
money resources shall not be strained by
excessive speculation in the stock mar
ket. The opinion is quite generally held
also that money rates, If not stringent
will be tight through the harvesting pc
Rod
The sustained rates for time loans are
eonfirmatory of this impression. The in
terror needs for moving the harvest are
already making themselves felt in this
market by the withdrawal of credits on
account of the interior institutions. The
interior exchange also is moving deetd-
eddy against New York, exchange at Chi
eago today falling to 40 cents discount
Any incident of the day which attracted
much attention was the violent readjust-
ment effected in the market price of New
York Central gas mortgages, 31a per cent
bonds. There was a perpendicular drop
of 3lR points to 81 on comparatively light
sales. The movement was attributed TO
the dissolution of a syndicate and the
distribution TO its members of some So
100000 of the unsold bonds.
1t war believed that the new price
established allowed a margin of profit
on the holdings of the bonds over the
terms at which they have been acquired
from the company This bond never sold
lower than 50 previous TO tod VS. sudden
drop The movement was interpreted as
a conviction of the syndicate holders that
a lower price and an increase in the in
come rate on the bonds was merely in
order to find a market for them In their
regular downward move of prices Penn
sylvania was the only stock showing eff
fective resistance. 1t was lifted OCCASION
ally in the intervals of the selling press
TIRE elsewhere to level above last night.
This movement served to restrain, but
not to prevent the downward movement
elsewhere, which reached to gradually
lower levelsc and closed easy near the
lowest.
Bonds were heavy.
Total sales, par value, 100000
United States bonds were all unchanged
on call.

Gilbert G. cIay's Market Letter.

Liverpool closed steady with options
showing loss of from 3 to points, spot
sales 1000 bales quoted 8 points lower.
There was some increased activity in
the market during the day. primarily due
to the attractive differentials existing be-
tween the several markets which since
the bureau of last Friday have been slow
ly readjusting themselves. Nevertheless,
the market is extremely narrow and lacks
the broader stroke of a more general in
terest.
Weather conditions are again excellent
but reports of damage, some actual, but
the greater portion antieipatorY, by the
recent excessive moisture, have caused
a considerable hardening up of prices
augmented considerably by covering of
the short scalpng interest However, SEN
timent seems to be against the market
and takes the more tangible shape of as
sistance when declines become immi-
nent where as support is a minus quanti-
ty when necessary to further an advance.

Corporation.
ST. PAUL IS A BIG FACTOR

New York. August s.-The stock mar
ket developed quite positive reaction
airy tendency as to the outcome of the
growing irregularity for several days
past. Mondays market was generally
strong, but before yesterdays trading
was concluded 1t became very clear that
an extensive distribution of stocks which
have shown the largest advances recent
ly. was being effected under cover of the
new strength in Pennsylvania The per-
ception of this distribution had an unset
Ting effect on speculative sentiment to-
day owing to the fact that that senti-
ment is swayed almost entirely by the
supposed course Of the operations of
capitalists of recognized leadership and.
authority. The speculative element has
heen buying confidently in the belief that
they were doing as these leaders were
doing.
The action of Yesterdays market
aroused the suspicion that buying of
stocks involves the taking over of hold
ings which the accredited leaders of SEN
timent were disposing Of This was the
prime consideration in the turn in the
market, although some discussion was
heard of the money outlook, industrial
conditions and like general considerations.
The considerations. however were of
small consequence in comparison with
the effect produced by the report that the
president of the Great Northern has re-
turned to st. Paul instead of arriving
as expected in New York to effect a
prompt completion of the disposal of the
company's ore lands to the United States
Steel corporation. Another incident of like
potency on speculative sentiment al
though of seeming unimportance, was the
announcement that the chairman of the
st. Paul board would go on vacation
trip tomorrow.
The absence of this official was taken to
mean that no immediate action would be
taken on the plan for financing the Pa
CHIC coast extension. The sensitiveness to
happenings of this character is an indi-
cation of how large a part unauthorized
surmises have played in much of the re-
cent operations in stocks, especially in
the group most affected by the realizing
of today. There was very active discus
sion of the chances for avoiding money
stringency this fall. Much reassuring
opinion comes from influential banking

state did not confirm the reports of very
heavy rains circulating early. however.

Later there were a number of private

Louem1n & co s Markell Letter.

August is the month of deterioration,
only once IN twenty-five years does tho
record show an improvement during that
month. and even that seems TO have
been an error, since the September eOndi-
ton showed an abnormal falling off This
happened in 1908 Otherwise. It should not
be a surprise to find complaints begin
ming to come in. Today a great deal has
been made of very heavy rain I'm the
western half of Texas, There is no doubt
that some lowlands have been damaged
The chances are good that for every bale
destroyed by freshets, FIVE bales have
been added in the way of increased pro-
Guctiveness of the plant in other sections
The great danger, we have already
pointed out, Is from drouth and dry winds
In August. We may complain of too much
rain as much as we please, but on its
face this argues against the possibility
of the greatest danger, namely. drouth
and hot winds. Texas occupies the center
of the stage today, and the middle states
of the belt are lost sight of. Meanwhile
they are doing business right along and
our friends In that section tell us that
the plant in the hills is thriving so well,
so tall, and so heavily fruited that they
leok like the crops grown in the rich
low1ands of the Mississippi in the normal
season. There has been a good deal of
covering of short accounts today, simply
because it is so long since prices have
varied more than 20 points that the aver
age man cannot contemplate decline OF
jae without apprehension of sharper
rally. We must not lose sight of the fact
however, that there Is a prospect now OF
a full crop, and an early movement, while
conditions abroad are not of character
to supply the support needed to prevent
natural decline. Liverpool is due to
come l higher In the morning.

was considered a pretty good showing oa
the lower European markets and private

was still offering coffee freely. The Bra
lillian markets were higher. however, and
the market here rallied during the middle
session to within partial 5 points of last
nights close, and later breaking again
under increased offerings for long account,

ropean bears. The market was very I'M
