lively parcelled out amongst the other
trunk lines The stand taken by the
Pennsylvania company in admitting bene-
fits for railroad companies from the new
railroad rate law is in strong contrast
with the depressing effect on stocks Of
the progressive steps in securing the en-
actment of the law. The benefit to ac-
crue to railroads, according to the Penn
sylvania official view, is to be by main
tanning stable rates and doing away with
the necessity for secret rebates costly to
the railroads and to destructive compe-
tition for business. In processing to see
In these conditions the ending of the ne
cessity for controlling voice in the af-
fairs of competing companies, the Penn
sylvania statement seems to offer a de-
structive argument against the supposed
deals for additional control which have
been a potent factor in the present great
speculation. The alleged purpose OF the
Southern Pacific to control the st. Paul
continued to KEEP the latter stock in the
forefront of the speculation during the
day.
The speculation showed every symptom
of unrestrained progress until it was
forcibly arrested by the practical ex-
haustion of available funds in the call
loan market. Withdrawals to meet the
necessities of other departments of the
money market forced the call loan rate
up to 30 per cent In the afternoon and
induced large speculative liquidation OF a
forced character. Union Pacific and
smelling suffered most in this selling, but
the whole market was forced downward
sharply converting the considerable
earlier gains into general net losses on
the day. Gold was secured during the
day for import to New York to the ex-
tent of $1700,O00, partly in London and
partly In Paris. But this was scarcely
more than sufficient to offset the days
losses to the government, and by tele-
graphic transfer to San Francisco while
shipments of currency to the interior by
express were on a heavy scale with GER
tainty OF their continuance for some time
to come.
The stock market closed feverish and
unsettled in consequence.
Bonds were irregular.
Total sales, par value, $2,390,000.
United States bonds were unchanged on
call.

Closes at a Net Advance of
7 to 5 Points
MARKET OPENS STEADY
Heavy Rains and Less Favorable Crop
Reports From Texas Affects the
Trading During the
Day
MARKET OPENS STEADY

New York, September 4-The cotton mar
ket was moderately active and gener-
ally steady to firm today and closed at
a net advance of 7dS points. Sales for
the day were estimated 100000 bales. The
market opened steady at a decline of 8
points to an advance of points or just
at about due on the cables. Trading was
quite active on the call. and the mar
ket advanced on covering of shorts and
support from local bulls, who were en-
couraged by the lack of heavy rains in
Texas over the holidays and less favor
able crop reports from that state and the
Mississippi valley. After an advance Of
8 or 10 points there was a slight reaction
due to realizing, but the market com
tinued steady in tone, and later sold up
to cents for October, 920c for Decem-
Der and 929 for January or 1920 points
net higher, with local shorts and some
of the bullish room traders the best buy
ers. The detailed weather report showed
rains ranging from about an inch to 3h
inches from several points in Texas. Re-
ceipts at ports today 1881 bales, against
100 last week and 39,735 last year. For
the week 10000, against 74,755 bales last
week, and 15z9os last year. Today's re-
ceipts at No. 81 bales against 1900 last
year, and at Houston 1857 bales, against
1885 last year.

SPECULATION IN
STOCKS MORE QUIET
Tone of the Market Becomes
Slightly Feverish
MONEY is TIGHTENING

fessIonal Operators and Million

cesslve Trading.

New York, September 4.-The speeula-
ton in stocks was continued today, al
though on a somewhat diminished scale
of activity from that of last week. The
tone of the market became feverish in
the course of the day. This was prin-
cipally due to the contending efforts of
speculative furore on the one hand. and
the tightening money market on the 9TH
er. Prices broke all around when call
money reached 80 per cent Incidental
to the furious trading in and out OF tine
market by professional operators, and by
habitual spectators of the millionaire
class, a churning process was Kept up on
a gigantic scale, consisting of manipula-
tive orders placed in the market for both
accounts and from the same sources SOLE
" for effect on prices. There was much
confusion and no little conflict In the
arguments heard In connection with the
eager speculation, and these arguments
afforded some striking contrasts with the
views on the same subjects protested in
Wall street in times past. This is hlghly
characteristic of a period of speculative
excess when all events are turned to one
way of Interpretation for the furtherance
of speculative prospects. An instance
was the reception given to the official
announcement that the Pennsylvania
Railroad had Invested itself of ownership
of large proportion OF its holdings in
Baltimore and Ohio and Norfolk and
Western. At the time of the purchase
of these holdings 1t was made a ground
for a. strong buying of the stocks be-
cause the large supply removed from the
market by the Pennsylvanlas purchase
promised security from any pressure on
the market of free offerings. So far
from showing any fears of the effect on
prices of an additional floating market
supply Baltimore and Ohio was made
the favorite of the speculation today.
This stock has ben notably backward in
responding to favorable news develop
ments up to this time, even including an
advance in the dividend rate from to
6 per cent. The argument was heard to-
day that this Indicated that the Penn
sylvana holdings of the stock had been
coming on the market for some time past,
leaving the way open for any present
advance. The accompanying rise in Read
ing showed that the suggested policy OF
Investment of ownership in subsidiary
companies was without disturbing effect
on that stock, control of which is effec-

showing, 1000 bales having been sold at

In the earlier trading local prices re-
sponded but feebly to the more bullish
character of crop news, but later reports
of excessive rains In Texas and increased
activity of weevils and worms caused a
considerable Improvement which held

are decidedly mixed as to whether or not

year, or whether they but reflect a natural

point of its maturity. AT all events the
market displays tendency to be in

Texas. Heavy rains over Texas on the
weather map added TO the idea that the
crop was not doing well in this state
and caused considerable fresh buying. On
the opening an accumulation of buying
oaueas had to be oiled, which steadied
prices and stimulated Liverpool to add
to an advance that was none too great
for some time previous to the opening
of the local market This accumulation
of buying orders appeared to have been
caused by reports of heavy rains In Texas
yesterday and by the TlmesDemocrat's
report on condition yesterday morning.
The report stated that distinct crop de-
terioration had taken place during the
mont hand that the indications were
that the crop was two weeks late.
In the earlier hours fluctuations carried
the price down near to the level of last
weeks closing several times, but toward
noon the market took on great steadiness
and prices went up for an advance of
about Il points when compared with the
final prices of last week.
