their part nobly toward helping the
victims of the California earthquake
Last week the aditor of the Courier
Junior asked her readers to send her
packages containing articles that are
no doubt badly needed by the little
homeless children in California, and
already a large lumber of bundles
have been received, some from "Jun-
Tors" in Ottumwa, some from others in
nearby towns. A box will be sent
from the Courier office next Saturday
night, with all the donations from the
children, and if there are others later
q second box will be made up.
The lesson OF generosity is one that
everyone should learn, and when it is
taught the child it is characteristic
Of the adult. There is no trait that is
more admirable in man or woman,
none that makes life more worth sliv-
ing. than a desire to a.d those in dis
tress. This is the lesson that the lit
tie children who read the Courier Ju-
Nor are learning. Their pennies that

THE EFFECT ON STOCKS.

The commercial thermometer mas
experienced drop, a greater one
than was at first expected, on account
Of the San Francisco disaster. Follow
ing the first shock there was natural
bracing together for resisting its con-
sequences, but as the appalling extent
of the calamity became more generally
known values in highly inflated
market gradually began to yield. 1t
is now estimated by good authorities
that the total destruction of property
will approximate about $3O0,000,0O0.
Probably not more than half this
amount, or $150,0O0,000, will be COW
cred by insurance; and of the losses
which will have to be paid by the in
surance companies more than half OF
that sum, about $70000,000 or $780,
100000, will fall upon American COM
panies, the balance being sustained by
foreign concerns. Added to the actual
destruction Of property will be the dis
organization and loss of business for
weeks and months to come; so that
it is yet impossible to calculate the
real damage to trade and industry re-
sulting from this catastrophe.
Says Henry Clews, referring in his
weekly letter to the situation:
'By no process of intellectual Jug
Cling can such wholesale destruc-
ton of property be turned into bull
argument. The loss is actual and ire
mendous, and must exert depressing
effect which, however widely distri-
buted, will have to be endured. So
far as Wall street is concerned its
chief influence will be felt in the mon
ey market, which has been overtaxed
by numerous insistent demands. High
priced stocks and high rates for mon
ey are utterly incompatible. Since
there is little prospect of cheap money
for some time to come it is inevitable
that readjustment must be effected
through liquidation and lower prices
for securities. Many of our railroads
which have important improvements
already under way are in urgent need
of funds. A few of the shrewder cor
porations have already provided for
themselves in advance, but there are
others which are not so prepared and
must come into the money market up
on the best terms which they can Sc
cure In this connection the Feappear-
ance of short term railroad notes is
significant Indication of monetary con-
ditions. This device has not been re-
sorted to since 1903, when similar
stringency in the money market
caused a decided reaction in stocks.
Further borrowings are to be expect
ed from railroad corporations, SO that
accompanied with regular trade de-
mands, which are heavy, and the un-
usual real estate speculation, there is
no chance for low money rates during
the coming summer or until after the

WALTER is OFF.

Walter Wellman has gone to Paris
and, if everything goes to his liking
he will not return to this country I'M
til after having "ballooned" to the
north pole and back again. He hasn't
finished his air ship yet but he feels
sure that everything can be arranged
just as he wants it and that he can
go to the pole and back again in two
weeks after the start is made.
While there is good deal of foolish
ness about Wellman's writing and
most everything else of which he has
been the author in several years, much
interest attaches to his freak trip to
thu nnrthern REGIONS. He has been

crop movement has been financed.
Prospects for continued gold imports
are not encouraging, although an adj
ded 100000 has just been engaged,
and the monetary situation has been
further relieved by the efforts of Sec
rotary Shaw to aid the banks. In case
of emergency some help might be OBJ
tained from London or Paris, the great
foreign banks being in better position
than might have been expected con-
sidering recent heavy demands. AS
previously stated, the necessities aris-
ing from the San Francisco fire come
at an unfortunate time for the local
money market. Insurance losses will
be paid gradually and partly from the
surplus funds already in bank. 1t will
be impossible, however, for American
insurance companies to meet these I'M
usual losses entirely by borrowing.
Their surplus funds have been invest
ed generally in high grade securities,
some of which will of necessity be for
sale later on, if not now; especially as
under present conditions it might be
better financing to sell high priced
stocks before the decline than to Dor
row money at 5 per cent for paying
losses. In a rising market it would,
of course, be better policy to retain
securities and borrow cash for pay
ments."
Mr.. Clews doesn't look at the dark
side for long at a time and in the
course Of his letter he finds room for
a rosy hued view of the future of the
crops and a recovery from even the
earthquakes blow.
