Expect Low Prices.

Merchants say that. despite all asser-
tons 10 the contrary, the money mar
ket is but little bettered, and that the
livestock trade is still suffering from
the effects of the recent Wall Street dis
turbanoes, and will continue to he weak
for several months. Because of the lack
or ready money Western packers and
shippers have stopped their 3O-day credit
system with the farmers and eattle
raisers. In consequence, the latter are
disposing OF only their choicest hogs
and cattle.
A Washington merchant, I'm speaking
Of the situation this morning, said:
Yes, the same conditions now pre-
vailing in the West are also In order
here, and although there has been a
slight reactiOnary movement within the
past forty-eight hours, money conditions
will ultimately push prices down even
lover than they have been OF course
this will, without doubt, force the fig
ures way up above normal when the
market again shifts, as il must neces-
sarily do.
Where some OF the large Western
packers and shippers used to Kill from
1000 TO 1900 hogs IN one day they have
cut down this amount 20 the smallest
possible minimum, and are not killing
any more than enough TO meet the ac-
tual demand, which, Of course, is lighter
than unusual because Of advanced
prices.
They are not expanding, neither are
they putting into storage but the small
ese possible amount Of meat and IL Is
this fact which will cause the jump in
prices later on.

Key to Problem.

Aldrich Is the key to the currency
problem. Unless the Senate breaks loose
from his control-which has not often
occurred-he will decide whether a COM
prehensive currency system. or make
shift Will be adopted.
His present attitude is unknown He
is not the man for speech making. He
became involved In a currency debate
in the closing days OF the last session
OF Congress-. however, and his views
then may point the way to the position
he will take at the coming session.
One OF the important questions now
bothering the Administration and lead
ers Of both parties, is to determine just
how far II would be wise to go in the
issuing OF additional bank circulation
against various classes of securities
other than United States bonds. A
search Of the Congressional Record in
dicates that the great legislative fnan-
cier believes in the widest extension Of
the privilege consistent with safety.
Replying 20 interrOgatOries, he ex-
planned that few years ago his COM
mittee had reported a bill fixing the
class Of securities for deposits as fol-
lows:
Government bonds. State bonds. mu-
nicipal bonds OF a certain character,
municipal bonds Of counties and cities
Of certain size, and that had never re-
pudiated their obligations"

No Objection.

Continuing, he said: There can GER
tR1nly be no objection to the accept
ance Of bonds OF the United States or
bonds OF a State. but when you go into
any municipality in the Union, that is
very doubtful and questionable ground.
because there are q great many munich
palities WI ose bonds would never oe sold
at anywhere near par, and they would
not Re received by any bank n the
United States as a security for loan"
1t is believed Aldrich would favor the
establishment OF a central organization
OF existing national banks, as has been
suggested by some eminent financial
authorities. Whether he would give his
sanction to the plan for a central bank
of issue by the Government as advo-
Gated by former Director Of the Mint
Roberts. IS doubtful. The Senator is
good friend OF the national banks
II IS not likely that he would favor
the requiring OF national banks 70 pay
interest on public deposits. In the de-
bate referred to. he pointed out that
such a requirement would change the
transaction from a deposit to a loan,
and that It would result in the money
all going 10 big banks I'm the leading
financial centers.

Farmers Sell Corn.

ITO complete the cycle, the farmers,
realizing the shortage Of the corn crop
this year, prefer to sell their corn rather
than feed it or sell their stock at the
present prices. Where they got 500 and
$3.50 per barrel for corn last year. they
have no trouble finding a ready market
for their corn at 800 a barrel. OF
course. this will keep the grade Of stock
down. and make choice stuff Just that
much higher next spring because OF the
inferior quality which will be loaded
onto the market
The one who will suffer the most
from these conditions will be the farm
ct, and, in my opinion, he has II coming
to him. for he has had II his way too
long. True, the public Will nave to
stand for the advance, but the incon-
venience Of the public will be as moth
ing TO what the farmer and cattlemen
will have to stand"
