Inevitable Reaction Comes on Profit
Taking, and Close Is AT
Lower Point.

: NEW YORK, Aug. SIT was
day of speculative excitement in the
stock market and of violent and er-
ratio price fluctuations. The bull
movement started on its way pros
perously and reached a new high
stage of prices for the year with
great animation and buoyaney in the
dealings. At the accelerated pace of
the advance the movement o~erran
itself to some extent and paid the
penalty in sharp setback.
The market was the largest in vol
ume of the present year, the number
of shares which changed hands ris-
ing to a million before l o'clock. Ex-
tensive coverings by shorts has been
a recognized factor in the latter
stages of the rise. The distress of
the short interest in American Smelt-
ing and National Lead became so
acute in the course of the day, and
the disposition TO punish them SEEM
ed SO ruthless that the speculative
temper became discomposed and
heavy unloading of several large ac-
counts was precipitated.
The buyers saw a chance to gain
an advantage and raided prices down.

The two Guggenheim stocks were
conspicuous features from the out
set by reason of the late bulge yes
terday. When IL points had been
added to yesterdays 6A point gain
in American Smelling, and jumps of
a fun point between sales were made,
the market took alarm. Considerable
disorder resulted from this episode
in the market. The increased vol
ume of transactions represented a
substantial broadening of the partici-
patton, although concentrated buying
from a few houses, which has been
a feature throughout the movement.
These were interests of some of the
countrys largest spectators.
There was notable increase in the
attendance on the floor of the stock
exchange, many brokers having re-
turned from vacation absences to
share in the dealings. Forecasts of
the weeks currency movement point
ed to another heavy addition to the
cash holdings of the banks. The sub
treasury has supplied over $4,000
600 during the week, the continued
government deficit requiring heavy
disbursements by that institution.
The movement of currency from the
interior. although on diminished
basis, still added between one and
two millions of dollars to the gains
of the banks. The decline of spring
wheat during July, shown by the
government crop report, represented
a degree OF deterioration that disap-
points expectations as expressed by
other expert estimates, especially as
an additional decline in condition is
to be allowed for in the week elapsed
since the date of the governments es-
innate. The firmness of wheat prices
after the publication in spite of the
active speculation that has preceded

relapse in prices of stocks was suf-

party upon the pending presidential
campaign.
The New York Herald, bitterly OPP
posed to Mr.. Hearst, the founder of
the new party, says that il is use
less to belittle the importance of the
new party or the effect its formation
will exert during the pending cam
paign. The World calls attention to
the fact that Mr.. Hisgen, the hide
pendence league nominee for presi-
dent, last year polled $4,000 votes for
governor of Massachusetts, or 5000
more than the Democratic nominee.
The World believes that even with
the support of Mr.. Hearst Mr.. Bryan
could not hope to carry New York,
Illinois, California, Massachusetts or
Indiana, the states in which Mr.
Hearst is particularly influential.
With Mr. Hearst in opposition the
contest in these states is considered
over.
1t is plain that Mr.. Hearst and the
independence league nominees are
fighting Mr.. Bryan much harder than
they are Mr.. Taft, and out of every
five votes for Hisgen at least four
will be Bryan votes.
As temporary chairman of the In
dependence leageu convention Mr..
Hearst alluded to Mr.. Bryan and his
following in these words:
The Democratic vanguard is a
Falstaff's army. 1t is led by a knight
arrayed in a motley OF modified pro-
LESSONS and compromised principles,
of altered opinions and retracted
statements. 1t Is Offered by such
soldiers of fortune as Sullivan and
Hopkins and Murphy and Mcclellan;

Ter, and Tom Ryan, the Wall street
gambler, and Belmont, the racetrack
gambler 1t is composed of such po-
litical mercenaries as Bailey, of the
Standard Oil, and Williams, of the
Southern railway, and Hinky-Dink
and Bathhouse John and Red Duffy
and Niger Mike-all harmonized at
last and all marching together IN
rhythmic cadence strongly suggestive
of the lockstep.

bears on one side a watchword for
the people and on the other a pass
word for the trusts. whose only OIL
ject is office at any cost, whose mot
to. After Us the Deluge.'
No honest citizen can let down The
bars of Office to such an Ali Baba's
band of boodlers and braves.
Mr.. Hearst has been made the cam
paign manager of the Independence
league ticket. This makes certain
his untiring opposition to Bryan in
a half dozen pivotal states.
