Legislation Not Expected.

Not much is expected among New
York bankers in the way of currency
legislation by congress at the present
session. The fact that the presidential

some important measure Of reform is
quite generally recognized but the

who have trifed contemptuously with
public interest and displayed a blind
disregard of stockholders rights are
the real culprits.
Stock market values were also UNI

conditions are still very unsatisfac-
tory. The demands for moving the
crops and for general business are very
large; the situation being materially
aggravated by the high prices prevail

situation is rendered more acute by the
fact that we cannot depend upon Eu-
rope for financial aid to anything like
the degree which we have done for the
last three or four years. Our credit
abroad has not only been impaired by
well known conditions, but we are less
able to command that assistance than
usual.
