BULLS AND BEARS


Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, July Sit has been gen.
orally agreed ever since the matter was first
talked about six or seven months ago that
the first distinct eldication of a general slow
ing down in business would be In the volume
of orders booked by the United States Steel
Corporation and the other important manu-
facturers in the iron and steel trade. In
some circles the falling off which Is now
officially acknowledged was looked for sew
eral months ago, but those best Informed
did not anticipate any material change until
after July l. and perhaps later. Conserva-
tive interests have maintained all along
that liquidation in business, generally in
proportion to that which took place In Sc
curites during the first three months Of
this year, must come. They have not
changed their opinion, and still look
ing confidently for a slowing down all
around. They admit, of course, that the
volume OF business done during the next
six or eight months will be governed 10 a
consid cradle extent by the character OF
this year S crops, which now, on the whole,
promise very well. They believe. however,
that the all-mportant factor will be money.
No one is able to predict to what extent
monetary conditions would be relieved py
a moderate recession in business all alonS
the line +
A banker in discussing this question salo
that in his opinion the enormous scale on
which business is now being done through
out the world is by no means fully appre-
ciated and that little cutting off here and
there would release a large amount OF
money in the aggregate. On the other hand,
it is pointed cut that such large demands
for money by the corporations have been
held in allegiance for six months or more;
that if the available supply of money were
to increase greatly during the next six
months the corporations could very quickly
absorb II without looking far into the fu-
ture regarding their demands for new cap
1tal.
Even those who have been disposed OF
late to take a hopeful view of the stock
market situation do not think now that
much activity on the bull side can be looked
for. They recommend extreme conservatism
in the purchase Of stocks speculatively
Some operators who were bulish a week
ago are now predicting considerably lower
prices within the next few months. Most
conservative students of the situation do
not look for a serious decline in prices
from this level unless the slowing down in
business should run into a general depres-
sion. Fearing the latter it is believed that
the highly speculative contingent will be
inclined to liQuidate long stocks and go
short of the market until it is possible to
get an idea of the probable trend of busi-
ness later on.

ROBBERS BALKED
BY DOVER GIRLS

DOVER, July 1s.-Two Dover girls
frustrated a plot to rob the residence
of Chancellor John r. Nicholson, dur
ing the chancellor's temporary absence
from the city on Tuesday night
Miss Nellie Nicholson. the chancel-
lor's daughter, and Miss Tucker. her
visitor, were awakened during the
night long after the housekeeper had
retired by a series of strange noises
and heard unmistakable signs OF a
man in the house. The girls quickly
moved to the room where the chan
cellor usually sleeps, and secured re-
volvers where they fortified themselves
ready to shoot through windows or
doors.
Just then there was a movement IN
a tall apple tree in the lawn and a
dark lantern, in the hands Of the men
outside, was suddenly flashed in the
room. The man outside was evidently
shocked to see the girls, armed with
glistening revolvers, for he threw the
light on them several times. and then
the would-be burglars, who had evil
IDENTIFY thought the house unoccupied
fed, as noiselessly as possible.
