This snow storm brought out many

AND TRADE IN
MARKETS OF THE WORLD

tions which have grown up. The tightness
of money Is now worldwide, the pressure in
London and in Berlin being almost as acute
as in New York. The very active trade
conditions call for extraordinary supplies
for the circulation. and the result Is de-
pletion of cash holdings in banking reserves
on which to base credits.
The excessive demands for capital to
place in fixed forms has been a subject of
observation for months. 1t is very gener-
ally assumed that the active speculation
of last fall left large holdings in the hands
of men of large wealth that have never
since been cleared UP. owing to the persist
ence of the general speculative public in
refraining from the market. This is sup
posed to account for large part of the
forced liquidation, and to explain also the
absence of failures due to the heavy fall in
prices. The source of the selling remains
undisclosed, however. and the difficulty
therefore of forming an opinion on its mo-
tives OF reasonableness are elements of
continued disquet in the stock market.
The general feeling was. of course. much
treasured by the effective rally of Friday,
which seemed to ward off a threatened
disaster. but opinions the future, espe-
cially as to the effect upon general bust
ness of the course of the stock market, are
in confused state.
Bonds were little affected by the crash
in stocks, except in the convertible issues.
United States new As have advanced "
per cent on call during the week.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO. March 16.-Grain prices suf-
fered sharp declines today on renewed
selling by discouraged holders. Buying
by shorts. however, caused a steadier tone
during the latter part of the day At the
close May wheat was off 4. Corn and
oats were each down 1saL. Provisions
were unchanged to IA lower.
The wheat market opened fairly steady.
but soon became extremely weak because
of the large offerings made by longs.
Within the first fifteen minutes the May
delivery declined to 15A, a new low record
mark for the season. The general run of
crop news seemed to favor the bears Re
cefpts in the northwest were liberal, and
the weather both in the northwest and
southwest was favorable for the movement.
to increase sales. About the middle of the
session the selling became less energetic
and with a more active demand from
shorts the market regained some of the
early loss. The fact that primary receipts
were very liberal held buyers in check
somewhat. Total arrivals at all primary
points were Go3Oo0 bushels against 31l.Ooo
bushels for the same day last year The
market closed steady. May wheat opened
a shade lower to NAN higher at I51s to
761s, sold off to 15A and closed at 75ssa75A.
Clearances of wheat and -four were equal
to 10000 bushels. Minneapolis. Duluth
and Chicago reported receipts of 49, cars
against ADJ cars last week and 255 cars one
year ago.
early in the day because of extensive
liquidation. One commission house was
credited with sales amounting to 2,OO0.OO
bushels. The decline brought out a good
demand from shorts and cash interests,
which caused a steadier feeling. Local
ceipts today were elghty-one cars in excess
of the estimate and the weather was favor
able for the movement. The market closed
steady. May corn opened a shade to 7saA

was recovered. At the close May pork was

NEW YORK BANKS.

NEW YORK, March 16.-The Financier
says: When the fact is considered that last
weeks panicky conditions in the stock
market. together with the large losses of
cash that were directly traceable. through
the operations Of the treasury. should have
resulted in a decidedly unfavorable bank
statement. which indeed. was confidently
expected. the official exhibit o. the asso-
ciated banks was most remarkable. 1t show
ing not only a minimum decrease in cash.
but increase in the surplus reserves.
The cash loss as recorded was 1887, 300 or
about half Of the amount that was traced
to treasury operations, and one and two
thirds millions less than that which was
estimated upon the basis of the known
movements of money. General deposits de-
creased S15.914 100. and the required reserve
was therefore reduced $3.9IS, 4I5, deducting
from which the loss OF cash above left
s9S1.375 as the Increase in surplus reserve
to $3.U33. 100. Computed upon the basis Of
deposits. less those of S14 .5S3 400 public
funds, the surplus is S6,61S, $50. The state
ment made good proof. the sum OF the
reduction in loans and the loss Of cash be-
ing only about half a million greater than the
decrease in general deposits. Loans were
contracted by S13.3SO 200. and this, too. not
withstanding there was during the week an
almost unprecedented volume of liquidation
on the stock market which ought, 1t would
seem. to have resulted in far greater con-
traction in loans than that above shown.
Possibly an increase of two and one-half
millions in the excess of loans over deposits
may in part account for the surprising
exhibit of the loan item. The daily average
of bank clearings for the week was S419-
100000, against S3o9.ONO.OG0 in the previous
week: clearings on Saturday. rejecting Fri
days business We're $61S, 7l9,315 Compare
sons of loans of the individual banks show
ed that eight institutions contracted this
item by eleven and three quarters millions
net; seven banks lost four and one-half mil
lions net cash.

Conditions in 1908. however. were very
much different than now The cause OF
the panic of 1903 was undigested securities.
1t Is true that many of the recently manu-
featured securities have not very healthy
market. but there is no such condition now
as there was four years ago. Then the
country was flooded with a great mass OF
new industrial stocks. The output of Sc
curfties OF this class has been of insignn-
cant proportions since then. We have had
during the past few months an outpouring
of railway bonds and stocks. but they have
only been brought out as money has been
urgently needed by the railways to enlarge
their facilities to handle the enormous traf-
fic of the country. The amount of watered
stock recently offered to investors has been
very small. In the bull market, Of which
the formation of the steel corporation was
the distinguishing feature. hundreds of mil
lions of dollars of watered stock put
out.

Financial News Letter
BY W. q. NICHOLAS,

NEW YORK. March l6.-A prolonged
period OF heavy liquidation in the stock
market usually has its climax in a panic
Of selling regardless of values, such as has
been seen In Wall street this weell The
buying power of the market is impo Ssrshed
by long decline. and the lower sticks go
the greater is the necessity for throwing
them over for personal protection. But
even in the wild bear markets there always
comes time when prices are away below
values. when those who have not been so
badly hurt come into the market in search
of investment bargains. The usual after
math of such market as that OF the past
few days is a dminution i'm the amount OF
the trading. accompanied by sagging prices
AS the wounds received In the decline heal
up and buyers regain confidence they begin
to take stocks out of the street. The ci-
max OF the bear market of 1903 was reached
In July. 1t was ten months later before
strong interests. confident that the corner
had been turned. began to come into the
market again as large buyers OF securities.
1t was not until the fall of 1904 that the
bull market got well under way.

CHILD AND WOMAN LABOR.
No Industrial Question of More ln,por.
tance Than This.

No question growing out Of our rapid
and complex Industrial Development is
more important than that of the en-
ployment OF women and children. The
presence Of women in industry reacts
with extreme directness upon the char
acter Of the home and upon family
life, and the conditions surrounding the
employment Of children bear a vital re-
latiOn to our future citizenship. Our
legislation in those areas under the
control of the congress is very much
behind the legislation Of our more pro
gressive states. A thorough and com-
prehensive measure should be adopted
at this session Of the congress relating
to the employment Of women and chit
dren in the District Of Columbia and
the territories. The Investigation into
the condition Of women and children
wage earners recently authorized and
directed by the congress is now being
carried on in the various states. and
I recommend that the appropriation
made last year for beginning this work
be renewed in order that we may have
the thorough and comprehensive inves-
tigation which the subject demands.
The national government has as an III
innate resort for control of child labor
the use Of the interstate commerce
clause to prevent the products OF child
labor from entering into interstate COM
merce, but before using this it ought
certainly to enact model laws on the
subject for the territories under it's
own immediate control.
There is one fundamental proposition
which can he laid down as regards all
these matters--namely. while honesty
by itself will not solve the problem. yet
the insistence upon honesty not mere.
" technical honesty, but honesty III
purpose and spirit is IN essential ele-
ment in arriving at a right conclusion.

of the department of Justice during the
past few years has been such as to
make it evident that no man stands
above the law; that no corporation is
so wealthy that it cannot be held to
account. The department Of justice
has been as prompt to proceed against
the Wealthiest malefactor whose crime
was one of greed and cunning as to
proceed against the agitator who in
cites to brutal violence. Everything
that can be done under the existing
law and with the existing state OF pub
lie opinion, which SO profoundly infu-
ences both the courts and juries. has
been done. but the laws themselves
need strengthening in more than one
important point. They should be made
more definite, SO that no honest man
can be led unWittingly to break them
and so that the real wrongdoer can be
readily punished.
Moreover. there must be the public
opinion back OF the laws or the laws
themselves will be Of no avail AT
present while the average juryman I'M
dOubtedly wishes to see trusts broken
up and is quite ready to fine the cor
pOratiOn itself. he is very reluctant to
find the facts proven beyond a reason
able doubt when it comes to sending to
Jail member of the business COM
munity for indulging In practices
which are profoundly unhealthy, but
which unfortunately the business COM
munity has grown to recognize as
we'll nigh normal. Both the present
condition of the law and the present
temper Of juries render it task of ex-
IRENE difficulty to get at the real
wrongdoer in any such case. especially
by imprisonment, yet it is from every
standpoint far preferable to punish the
prime offender by imprisonment rather
than TO fine the corporation. with the
attendant damage to stockholders.
The two great evils in the execution
Of our criminal laws today are senti-
mentality and technicality. For the
latter the remedy must come from the
hands OF the legislatures, the courts
and the lawyers. The other must de-
pend for its cure upon the gradual
growth Of a sound public opinion
which shall insist that regard for the
law and the demands of reason shall
control all other influences and emo
tons in the jury box. Both of these
evils must be removed or public dis
content with the criminal law will con-
tinue
