AMONG PANIC YEARS
1907 a Period of Remarkable
Stress and Strain.
SOME FINANCIAL STORMS
Close Finds Conditions Stronger and
Safer.
THE BREAK IN WALL STREET
One of the Most Serious and Re-
markable Tumbles In Prices
Ever Experienced.
THE BREAK IN WALL STREET

NEW YORK, December 31.-The yea,
1907 has been one in which there has
been much making of financial history
It will go down with 1857, 1873 and 1895
as one of the panic years in American
finance, but, despite the remarkable stress
and strain to which the financial structure
has been subjected, the year closes with
conditions strongr and safer than they
were at its beginning.
The year opened with the feeling in
conservative quarters that speculation
had already been carried to an unwar-
ranted height. and that prudence was i'm
posed by conditions upon bankers and
capitalists. That this feeling operated to
some extent throughout the year. and that
there was scarcity of capital for alb
sorbing new securities, was indicated by
the diminished transactions in stocks and
bonds on the New York stock exchange
While the number of shares Of stock
dealt in up to Christmas of 1907 did not
fall below that of normal years prior ia
1905, 1t was very much less than for that
year and for 1906. The banner year
prior to 1905 was 1901, when the number
of shares dealt in was 265577, 1854. There
was decline Of 100, 74S.36S shares in the
depression Of 1908, and a recovery to 263,
040.99 in 1905 and 2SS, 424, 234 In 1905. The
number Of shares dealt in in 1907 fell to
1875, 1859, 1872 The field Of bonds in 1901
showed sales amounting to $999, 404 $40
maximum was attained in 1904, when sales
were $1,030. Sl0.56O. but was not greatly
reduced in 1905, when sales stood at ST..
OS, 500, 40.

Exhaustion Of Capital.


Signs Of the exhaustion Of capital were
already afforded in 1905 by the decline OF
such sales to s67O.S17, 1913 and finally to
1851 .651 SEQ in 1907.
The source of the pressure upon the
money market Is indicated by the large
issues Of securities which took place sew
era1 years prior to the crisis. The stats.
nal In Brussels showed that the total
issues throughout the world for the five
years ended with 1906 were about So, 400,
100000 annually. In the United States Is
sues of stocks for the first eleven months
Of 1907 were $757 .359, 500, and of bonds and
notes $1.O13.990,OO0, making up a total OF
81. 1871 $40. 500.
The extent to which capital resources
had been strained was not revealed in a
striking manner to the general public I'M
til 'the silent panic of March IA, now
almost overshadowed by later events, but
at the time one of the most serious and
ever suffered. The loss Of 10 points in
Amalgamated Copper in single day, p
points In American Smelling, % in Read
ing and % in Union Pacific, added to con-
siderable previous declines at a slower
rate, wiped out margins. compelled the
calling of loans and wrecked the fortunes
of many spectators. The market recov-
cred only slowly during the spring and
early summer, to suffer new reactions In
August; but it was not until id-October
that the storm broke in all its force with
the collapse of the corner in United Cop
per. the appeal of the Morse-Heinz banks
to the clearing house for help and the re-
fusal to extend such help until the old
control was eliminated

David turned silently to his rabbits.

tiently.
Helena. in her confused establishment
knew not what to reply. She stammered
something about that being wrong; Of
course David must love Mr.. Pryor!
They ought to have fresh water"
David interrupted, thoughtfully. and
Helena had to reach into the hutch for a
battered tin pan.
She watched him run to the stable and
come back, holding the pan in both
the mottled branches of the button
woods: at every step the water splashed

catching and pickering in 1t, was reflected
in a ripping CLEAN across his serious

asked, timorously "A SNAKE he add I'd

Lavendar's directions came back to her

David took the matter into. his own

FEDERAL APPOINTMENTS.
The Iowa Delegation Met Tuesda,
and Selected Names for Appoints
ment to the Federal Offices.

For nearly year the Iowa Dele
CATION in congress has had the selec-
tion of names for appointment under
consideration. They have met time
and again but failed to settle the mat
ter until Tuesday of this week at q
meeting adjourned over from Mon
day. They spent all the afternoon, fin
ally disposing Of the places in the fol-
lowing manner. Attorney, southern
district, Col. M. l.. Temple of Osce-
ola; attorney northern district, Fred
f. Faville of Storm Lake; collector
northern district M. J. Tobin of Vim
ton: marshal northern district, Ed
Knott of Waverly; marshall south
ern district, Frank B. Clark of OF
tumwa.
The selection of Mr.. Faville was q
complete surprise not only to him
but all OF his friends, his name be-
ing presented at the last as a COM
promise between ID. G. Chase of Web
ster City and M. J. Tobin of Vinton.
The editor of this paper feels highly
pleased with the result as to Mr.. Fa-
vile because he is a long time init
mate friend.
He is quite young man for such
an important place, but he is well edu-
Gated being a graduate of the Iowa
State College and of the law depart

years. He is not only a brilliant and
successful lawyer but an honest and
upright citizen in every way.

Court Adiourns

Judge Macy went home Friday night
TO attend to some court business there
on Saturday. Returning Monday he
finished the work here and adjourned
the session Tuesday afternoon. In the
case of Ida |. Wiltse against Frank
w. Wiltse, for divorce, a degree was
granted on the claim made by plain.
tiff that she had received cruel and in
human treatment. The case of Powell
and Harvey against j. f. Berry was
decided in favor of plaintiffs. Mr..
Berry had refused to take horse he
bid off at sale and suit was brought
for damages which were granted in the
sum of S22.50. The decision of the
Court in the case of the Town of Extra
against p. /. Whitfield concerning the
vacation of street will be handed
down on the sixteenth of March. In
the action brought by Fisher, as guar
dian, against the Board of Supervi.
sors of Audubon county for the yaca-
ton of road in Lincoln township
the Court set the Boards decision
aside and ordered the road re-opened
because notice had not been given to
the party chiefly interested who is an
inmate of the asylum at Clarinda, the
Court holding that notice to the guar
dian was not sufficient.
