NEW YORK LETTER.

New York August THE stock mar

are on an average OF FIVE points lower

American Sugar from lis to 1l3- Moth
ing seemed to be exempt from the bear
raid. AS was remarked yesterday
bears are in complete control Of the
market and they have pressed every
advantage. The chief cause or the
selling in the industrial list was a ru-
NOR to the effect that the government
would prosecute the American Sugar
company and Amalgamated Copper
company for violation of the antitrust
laws and for giving rebates. 1t was
said that the sugar trust would be la

a strenuous day throughout with every
active stock on the list showing large
declines That influential interests
have been the largest sellers and are
manipulating the market to bring about
a severe break to influence legislators
and the United States government to
desist in their attacks upon the various
trusts. Union Pacific, st. Paul, Great
Northern, Northern Pacific, Southern
Pacific, Atchison and Baltimore & Ohio
suffered sharp declines the same as the
industrial list.
Copper was again pressed for sale
Another break in the metal market
with predictions of further reductions
in the price of cash copper was the
main reason for the weakness. Dissen-
sions amongst copper producers both
connected with the trust and the in
dependent concerns are reported. The
belief prevails that the metal market
must decline in order TO stimulate
demand, is growing.
The market closed with a slight rally
from the lowest prices of the day

very alarming about the fine imposed
on the Standard Oil company, but John

before said fine is paid. We fail to see
any reason for this factor to influence
the market further. Stringent money
this fall is so generally predicted that
we may escape without it. and that

Today's market was a continuation
of yesterday, heavy liquidation was
noticeable in Reading, Shelters, IN
lon Pacific and Copper, which weaken
ed the entire list from to 3 per cent.
before there was any appreciate rally,
and this unquestionably was brought
by short covering and the heavy buying
of Steel. which stock seemed to re-
ceive support for the first time since
the dividend declaration. There is little
that can be said as far as the general
situation is concerned. the public at
large does not feel inclined to buy
stocks even at reduced figures. and the
large interests who are carrying Sc
curities unQuestionahly have enough to
take care of what they own. so the
market will be left TO manipulation
for the immediate future We think
however, that on sharp drives the mar
ket can be bought for a turn.

Frick made up his mind in Europe to

It Will come as a surprise to most
observers of the market to discover
the ease with which prices of the best
stocks have declined during the past
few days and it is certainly disappoint-
ing evidence of a lack of confidence in
underlying values which we had hoped
had changed for the better. OF course
if market values are to be measured
by money rates alone, stocks are SELL
ing as high as justified by existing
rates for time money. though some is
sues like the metals give better re-
turns. they have never occupied so
high a place in public esteem as the
great railway trunk lines both east and
west. Both the character of the recent
selling and the technical condition of
the market as it stands tonight should
encourage the hope of steadiness at
least. apart from this, there are few
incentives for purely speculative op-
erationS.
