STUYvESANT FISH PRE-

New York, Jan. 2.-Stuyvesant
Fish, in a statement written for the
Journal of Commerce, declares that a
great industrial crisis is due and that
there are many indications of its
being imminent. Despite the unpre-
cedented output of gold" Fish says,
money is dear the world over, and
It is dear because of hign prices and
activity in trade. Other causes for
dear money are that Great Britain
has not fully made up the losses of
the Boer war; that Japan and Rus
sia, particularly the latter, have
scarcely begun to recover from their
war, and tremendous losses of capi-
tai in the calamities il San Fran
cisco and Valparaiso. Wall street is
also absorbing more than its share
of loanable money" He says the in
vesting public is staying out of Wall
street because of the methods of
corporate finance now in vogue in
New York and that Europe shares
the distrust.
