THE FOREIGN MARKETS.

LONDON. August 22.-Considering the
holiday season, the markets of the stock
exchange have been comparatively active
for the past week with a steady under
tone. Even copsols which recently have
been depressed. picked up from the low
est quotations of the week and closed Lie
dearer than last Saturday.
This improvement was due to invest
ment purchasing, which, however, was
more noticeable among foreign rails and
foreign bonds Foreign bonds benefited
also from increased support from Paris,
where money is abundant. The kaffirs
market developed considerable activity
and advancing prices. the big houses, as
ting in at the present level in anticipation
of a broadening business at the close of
the present account.
American securities experienced an
other week of seesaw movements. An
early rise was interrupted by rumors Of a
reduction in the New York Central divi-
dend. but the crop reports. together with
persistent Wall street support, particu-
larly Of the Pacific issues, caused prices
to swing upward, making the close Fri
day from one to five points higher than
last Saturday. An exception was New
York Central, which closed five points
lower.
Copper shares continue to be sWayed
by Wall street and the rise in the price
of the metal. They closed below the best
points touched. but higher on the week.

THE GRAIN MARKETS.

CHICAGO; August 22.-The beginning Of
the movement Of the new crop OF wheat on
a large scale in the northwest had a weak
ening effect today on the local market,
prices at the close being off a to 1ac
compared with yesterdays final quota
tions. Corn and oats closed steady, but
provisions were weak.
The situation in the northwest as re-
lated to the early movement of the new
crop was the dominant factor in the
wheat market. Arrivals of new wheat
today at Minneapolis were s. cars, against
IS yesterday and q the previous day. 1t
was expected also that Mondays ar
rivals would be much larger. The ma
teralizing last night of predicted frosts
in many localities Of the spring wheat
country had apparently almost no effect
and only caused mild firmness at the
start. which offset the weakness of for
eign markets.
Soon after the opening prices slumped
nearly 1c in all deliveries following a
break at Minneapolis, September declining
from 93Az to 92A and December from 94t
to 81 On the decline the market received
fair support from a leading elevator in
terest which steadied prices. but the lack
of any export demand and the slOwness
of trade in cash wheat precluded any
material rally.
Additional selling pressure developed
late in the day owing to break Of 12c
in the price Of No. 1 northern wheat at
Minneapolis, but offerings were not lib
eral. For September the low point Of
the day was reached at 92tts and for De-
cember at 93A The market closed easy,
with September at 93. Final figures on
December were 81. Clearances of wheat
and flour were equal to $4,000 bushels.
Primary receipts were $1,000 bushels
compared with $4,000 bushels the cor
responding day a year ago. Minneapolis,
Duluth and Chicago reported receipts of
300 cars, against PAT cars last week and
297 year ago.
siderable selling Of corn. but the market
held fairly steady. owing to the low tenn
peratures which prevailed last night in
the corn belt.
Frost was predicted tonight for the Da-
kotas and northern Iowa, but this news
failed to create any great amount of de-
mand. Trade was rather dull all day and
the close was steady. with prices Nan
higher to u lower. September closed at
N and December at 651sa85A. Local re-
ceipts were 1S5 cars. with fOrty-one of

close prices were a shade lower to q

Provisions were weak all day because

and October deliveries. The weakness of

The Robin.

From the Boston Transcript.
The sorrow of parting with the robins
when the birds go south next fall will be
mitigated somewhat by the assurance
that in Louisiana, at least, law has at
last been enacted for their protection.
AS many as a million robins are said to
have been killed in one winter in Louis
lana, some of them being used for food
and others shot because they destroyed
SO many small fruits. The robin steals
cherries and strawberries In the most
barefaced manner. Indeed, his appropria-
ton of the fruits of strawberry bed
Is so absolute that he scolds sharply
whenever the owners of the berries make
their appearance Nevertheless, with all
his faults of petty thieving. the robin is
as good friend as the farmers have
among the birds. The great number of
worms. caterpillars and insects that a
robin will destroy in a season make the
gardeners his debtors when crops are gath
cred, even If the bird has taken toll as
he worked. And he does work, too. He
is the most Industrious figure in sight
when he Is hunting for worms. 1t is due
we are told. to the efforts of the Audubon
Society that Louisiana, the state in which
Audubon was born. has been persuaded
to show this consideration for the robin,
and there Is little doubt that other south
ern states, urged by this same society
and by the arguments of the club women,
who are pledged to the cause OF the birds.
will within few seasons adopt the same
kindly. hospitable attitude toward migra-

Holding an Empty Bag.
the Wall Street Journal.

From the Wall Street Journal.
Two concerns consolidate under a hold
ing company, the third comes in and an
other company is formed to hold the
original holding company and the new
conner, making three operating concerns
and two holders. Thus things go on until
the operating companies equal y, and
holding companies equal X, minus one.
When this brood of corporate children
gets into financial trouble the reversal OF
the process begins. There is appointed q
receiver or two for each operating COM
