SOUTH CALLS FOR MONEY!
TO HARVEST THE CROP
Demand for Currency Has Made
Itself Felt in New
York.
BULL PARTY IN ASCENDANT
Able to Maintain Prices and
Make Show Of Strength in
Market.

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE action Of
tho stock market during the past week
has reelected some conflict of sent-
ment over the future course of values
or some mixture Of doubt amongst
those who have operated for higher
prices. Occasional irregular fiuctua-
tons OF prices have been the result.
The bull party has held the ascendant
and has been able to main tain prices
and make some show Of strength in
the market. Sales to realize profits by
those who have bought stock last
week caused an early reaction, but af-
ter these had been absorbed prices
again showed a hardening tendency.
The conviction seemed to be main
tained that the worst Of the unfavor-
able factors, with which the market
has had to contend. was safely passed
Bank reports for the week are evi-
denoe of the enormous transactions
which are put through not only In
New York, but in London and Paris,
and especially In Berlin, where the
changes In the different Items OF the
report of the Imperial Bank OF Ger
many exceeded any previous record,
The relaxation In money abroad fall
ed to develop any revival of investment
demand for securities and brought COR
responding disappointments. In New
York the money market3was slower to
relax, rates on call ruling higher early
in the week than last week. The
course Of the foreign exchanges also
indicated O. waiting demand for our
gold as soon as any relaxation should
occur in the local money market.

The sluggishness Of the Investment
demand for securities undoubtedly
finds large explanation for the large
amounts which have already been
spoken for new securities of railroad
companies. instalments OF subscriptions
falling due from time to time. These
new securities are offered to stock
holders on such terms as to prove more
attractive than securities IN the open
market even at the lowest prices
which have recently prevailed.
The operation of the red emptlon of
the government per cent. bonds,
which matured July LIST, is proving
slow and cumbersome. the prompt offer
of the bonds being confined practical
ly to the holding national banks and
other institutions which own large
blocks.

Increasing Business

We understand that when the new buildings now in course of construction are wired, and the current turned on, it will be necessary to cut out some of the street arcs, in order to give sufficient power to the commer- clal business. And in no distant future 1t is now figured that all the arcs will have to be put on a different circuit from the incon. descents, and new dynamo purchased to run them. That may necessitate the purchase of larger engine capable of pull. ing both dynamos.

 The banks are accepting these checks today on deposit or for collection. with a small exchange fee.

never had fault before. they will now
begin TO grow upon him thick and fast,
and he wakes up one fine morning to dis
cover that he is summoned TO appear
before the ward tribunal to show
cause why the "hand of fellowship
should not be withdrawn from him, At
this preliminary "'trial' the delinquent
either withdraws his objection to tithe
paylng-and thereafter pays, and consc
qucntly becomes member in good
stafding without fault; or he stands firm
| to his original idea, and is turned over
to the buffetings of Satan. He is an
apostate-thc most hated of all non Nor
mons.
Concerning the usual reply Of the tax
gatherers, that the books are always
open to those who pay, it is stated here,
as it has been said by The Tribune on
numerous other occasions, that the only
thing the tithe payer is permitted to
know, upon his personal request for an
inspection of the accounts, is just how
much he has paid-with possible admo-
milton that the amount is not consider
where single dollar of his money has
gono TO. That can be proved by asking
any payer OF tithes what becomes Of his
money. His reply will be that it goes
the work Of the Lord; or the brethren
have charge Of that; or he knows it is
we'll spent; or he does not care, Just so
long as he has done his duty. And that
information is quite as definite az that
which the last April conference re.
ceived, when the personally appointed

Smith-the chief beneficiary Of the rob-
bcry-reported TO that body the won.
derfully comprehensive satisfaction that
everything was O. k The words
were not precisely those, but the sense
conveyed in the "auditing committee IS
report was, if anything, slightly less
definite.
The fact is, that the 1.-THE system of
the Mormon church Is no more and no
less than a hold-up in the name of the
Almighty. II is an injury to the whole
commonwealth. Its secret use is con-
stant menace to the industry and com.
merce of the State. 1t is collected by
force and manipulated in stealth. The
most willful dishonesty is possible in its
disbursement. No other institution on
earth could be operated and maintained
IN such unlawfulncss without bringing
to itself swift and just reprisal
Robbery of this sort is all the more
reprehensible becaues it vietimizes peo.
pie whose belief and firm faith is that
to permit the ungodly raid upon their
substance is to serve the Lord and TO
conquer the devil, The whole affair is
the concern of all the people, and it is
to be hoped that some day in the not
distant future the blaspbemous pro,
phetic bandits will be caused TO realize
that fact.
