Panic Financial Not Industrial.

The panic was chiefly financial
and mainly due to the gross abuse
of credit and the too rapid transfer
nation of capital from liquid into
fixed forms. The storm which began
in October, has, however, immensely
clarified the financial situation.
Confidence is reviving at a rapid
rate; money is coming out OF
boarding; currency is returning In
large volumes from the interior;
bank reserves are rising with un-
expected rapidity and the whole
tendency Of existing forces Is to-
wards recuperation. The patient |:
still somewhat reduced by past ex'
cesses, but his constitution has not
been impaired; strength is return
ing and the disease is being rapidly
conquered. The most encouraging
feature is the growing ease in mon
ey, and the very pronounced i'm
provement in the credit situation
the latter very vital matter in tn
commercial affairs.

Easy Foreign Money Market,

One of the most satisfactory fea-
lures is the Improvement in the
foreign monetary outlook. The
Bank of England rate was reduced
TO per cent and may go lower;
the rate of the Bank of France is
now 81 per cent and the Bank Of
Germany ~ per cent. These evil
dences of returning ease abroad
show that apprehension regarding
the situation here is subsiding, and
that there is no prospect of serious
trouble over there: Germany having
fortunately averted it's long expect
ed crisis. This lowering of interest
rates abroad and the placing of
considerable American securities In
foreign markets will strengthen our
hold upon the gold import during
the manic. In the long run the
tendency of values should be up
ward until the market has adjusted
itself to the radical change in the
monetary conditions. The advance.
however. will be accompanied by
temporary setbacks.
Lewiston evening teller. [volume] (Lewiston, Idaho) 1903-1911, 1908-01-24
Imitation Guarded Against.

In view Of the large additions to
our currency supply and the ma
tons large stock of gold, we might
be in danger of rather too rapid
recovery and accompanying infia-
ton; especially as lower prices for
securities and commodities have in
effect materially increased the avail
able supply of funds. 1t is some
what fortunate. therefore, that
counter-demands, such as the with
drawal of public deposits, provision
for trust company reserves, retire
ment of clearing house certificates,
ETC., have interviewed to prevent an
undue surplus of idle money.
Another preventive of the latter
is likely to be the renewed demand
for capital by railroads and Other
corporations which were Obliged
to defer their requirements until
more convenient period. The latter
are quite important and will prob
ably develop within the next few
months. A very significant feature
was the successful placing of $50,
O00, 900 New York Central notes
The rapidity with which these wer'
taken demonstrates there Is good
demand from investors for high
class securities. In fact, the demand
for good bonds of all description
has been one of the most encour
aging features for several week
past. This demand is now extending
to securities of the next grade.

Business Not Seriously Hurt,

1t is quite evident that general
business has not been seriously
hurt by the late panic. Some slack
ening of the abnormal activity of
the past two years is observed which
is desirable and is likely to contin-
ue for a period at least. Readjust-
ment is almost as inevitable, If not
quite as necessary, in the merchan-
disc markets as in the security mar
kets. The change there, however,
is likely to be much less severe than
in Wall street-more gradual and
more protracted. There is no occa>
sion to anticipate any severe react
ion in general business. Trade and
industry are in generally sound con-
dition, and the wedding out of the
weak concerns and the general cur
tailment of production in general
VIII serve to strengthen the COM
mercial situation and establish a
lower and firmer basis on which to
prepare for renewed astivitv. AL
the DAYS of abnormal profits are
past, and 1t is useless to expect
their return, there is the best rea-
son for being hopeful regarding tho
future; the exception being that
within few months general trade
should recover its accustomed vol
ume.

Moderate Shrinkage Shown.

A great deal is being made of
the very poor railroad earnings now
being made public. Nearly all the
roads are reporting large decreases
in both gross and net. 1t is also
stated that 10 per cent of the
freight cors in the United States
are out of employment. There is
nothing astonishing in this. The
railroads are simpIy rejecting the
effect of the panic upon traffic.
There was Internationally a sharp
shrinkage of business in November
and December, resulting from the
financial depression. AS the latter
disappears trade and traffic will
losses reported for the last two
omnths are not likely to be coptin-
ned for the current year. A moder-
ate shrinkage in earnings NAV per-
haps he reasonably looked for; but
hv means of economies which are

duction Of dividends, especially
amnnp the high rate payers, and
railroad MANAGERS NAV consider It
to be good policy to be more con-
sera tive in the matter of dividends
and to keen the latter in closer
accord with market values. With
the prospects for comparatively
nasv money rates, many good Sc
curities will prove desirable pur-
chases at fair recessions from pres
emf figures, even allowing for such
dividend reductions as may reas-
onably be calculated upon.

Full Recovery Within the Year.

When prices have come down to
more substantial level and costs OF
production have been reduced we
may confidentially expect a revival
new enterprises and fresh employ
ment for the unfortunates now out
of work. Under no circumstances
ought the present depression to last
more than year; and 1t would not
be surprising If 1t were to disappear
altogether within a few months, or
as soon as the issue of the presi-
Dental election can be reasonably
fore seen. After such a rise as
has been experienced, more or less
realizing is inevitable. The market
has been skillfully handled during
the past few weeks, though trained
observers have no difficulty in de-
tecting the taking of profits by
prominent interests who of course,
are not likely to re-enter the market
except at lower level.

Resume of Wall Street
BY Henry Clews

NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-The
stock market has now enjoyed a re-
covery of from 10 to 20 points in
the active shares and still further
advance in some of the specialties
AS explained In our previous arti-
Giles, this was the natural sequence
of improvement in the monetary sit
uation and the uncovering of large
short interest. All panics have
been followed by an advance of con-
siderable duration, setting in usual
ly as soon as the disturbance to the
monetary conditions subsidies. The
period of recovery generally varies,
extending over several months and
regularity and occasional recessions.
The present recovery has been ex-
ceedingly rapid and somewhat cor
responds to the suddenness and
severity of the panic itself. The
fact that recuperation has been SO
prompt and energetic demonstrates
that the crisis revealed no unsound-
ness or grave disturbance in gener-
al conditions.

Wall Street Too Sensitive.

The decision of Judge Hough that
Mr.. Hartman must answer certain
questions propounded by the inter-
state commerce commission gave the
market a temporary setback, for it
is unnecessary to say that Wall
street does not relish these official
Investigations and the disclosures
which they sometimes produce. Any
other unexpected piece of bad news
would have been equally liable to
check the market at this iuncture.
From now on reactions are likely to
be more frequent and more severe;
nevertheless 1t does not appear that
the market has vet attained the de-
gree of recoery to which It is fairly
entitled under existing conditions.
The market is under control of
skiIful GLOVES who will now find
little difnoultv in financing mod
crate bull campaign. Apart from
this the rehound Of panic is al
wavs considerable and lasts for 2
ner'od of more than three of -four
weeks.

RENO, Dec. l. According to an
Official of one Of the largest mines
In the Tonopah district, the Mizpah
will soon close down to avoid further
loss because Of the low price Of sil-
yer and the other mines Of the camp
probably will follow suit.
In the last few weeks the price OF
the white metal has lowered about
4S and 40 cents and unless a turn
for the better soon takes place, the
mines will close rather than loose the
Difference between that price and So
cents which had prevailed for almost
