BIG SHRINKAGE IN VALUES
Heavy Aggregate Loss by Drop in
Price Of Stocks.


New York, Aug. 1.-THE past week
In the stock market was the most SEN
sational in some years. Prices went
lower for many active issues than in
the panic of May, 1901, and the shrink
age in values of some stocks ranged
from $15,00O,000 to $25,000,000. The
causes which made the decline were
fear sngendered by the threats of fur
ther radical legislation by the federal
and various state governments, the
threatened money stringency and in
dubitable evidence of recession In va
rious branches of business. Added
to this was the failure of q large New
England manufacturing concern and
rumors of similar embarrassment else
where. The local situation was fur
ther complicated by the advance In
the discount rate Of the Bank of Eng
land and the generally unsettled con-
ditions at the various Continental
money centers. The strike of the tel
egraph operators added to the all
around feeling of uneasiness, though it
was not very disturbing in it's effect
upon business. The week closed with
prices of many speculative issues low
er by Is to 80 per cent than in the
early part of the month.
