WEEK ON WALL STREET.

NEW YORK, Sept l5.--Gold ship
ments for New York set in full tide
this week and were made Immediately
available to New York reserves by the
operation Of the treasury order for de-
post of government funds against the
engagements. The result was the break
inr Of the money stringency in Wall
street and the recession Of the call loan
rate to nearly normal figures. The re-
sponse in the stock market was mod
crate owing to some realizing on pur-
chases made while money was stringent.
The remaining doubt Of the money pros
pect owing to the large demands to be
met to accommodate the exceedingly
active business conditions also exer-
cised some restraining influence. Gen
eral confidence was felt, however, that
measure of money relief by the Treas
urv Department would follow any sign
Of harmful money stringency.
