CALL MONEY WENT
-TO Hsss PER CENT

New York. oct 24.--Call money reached
i25 per cent yesterday and some OF the
most experienced operators on the stock
exchange said they had not seen money
so scarce since the famous panic of 1873.
At that time. after the failure OF Jay
Cooke had precipitated the storm, the
stock exchange suspended for q. week.
Brokers discussed this all but unpre-
dented situation exctedly after the close
OF the market.
There were brokers. some of them MEM
bors of the Oldest and best-known houses
OF the street, who were unable TO SECURE
money on stock exchange collateral at
any price.
The demand for money on the part OF
brokers was all the more urgent Tor the
reason that most of those without stand
Ing contracts covered their shorts on the
preceding day I'm the crash in prices.
The men thus closing out short con-
tracts delivered stocks 10 the buyers,
for the loan OF which they had previously
received money. These transactions alone
created a tremendous demand
The i25 per cent rate. the high rate Tor
actual business, was the highest since
the December panic crisis of 1899, when
1s6 per cent was charged for one loan.
That was the time of the Boer war slump
and the furry lasted for only one day.
The larger banks I'm the clearing house
held partly responsible for this state or
affairs the aloofness of the smaller
banks. The smaller banks, IL was alleged,
as on the previous day, were boarding
their money and were not at all inclined
10 assist be larger institutions I'm the
least.

receiverships were advisable as the best
means of protecting the Interests of all
concerned, IL was clearly our duty to fol-
low their friendly advices.
"The necessity for the rcceiverships Is
due solely TO the acute financial strin-

Both the electric company and the ma

the largest and most satisfactory business
