ate future and frankly acknowledge
that stock prices are entirely too high
to attract the investor who at this par
ticuIar time of the year is flush with
funds. The preset situation is thus re-
viewed BY Henry Clews in HE weekly
letter:
1.-THE first week Of thz new year has in
some respects been a dssaPpo' utnent-
The investment demand for stocks
usually experienced at this period has
not thus Tar materialized. and at pres
ent its prospects for so dorDg are some
what remote. Prices for stocks are stin
very high, notwithstanding the decline
of the last few weeks. and it is fully
recognized that much os the prosperity
that is likely to come to US in 1909 has
been already fully. il not over. dis
counted. All the arts OF manipulation
have been resorted to 10 carry prices
TO a still higher level, but without sue
cess. Buyers for investment cannot be
had at present figures, and there is but
one conclusion remaining; that is the
market Cor stocks must seek a lower
level before renewed activity can be an
tieipated. This impression is steadily
gaining ground. especially as the Janu-
airy investor is conspicuous by his alb
sence, and the market Is consequently
left in a weakened and somewhat SEN
sitive condition"
That the present depression in Wall
street is due to some extent to the eff
feet Of the decision of the United States
supreme court in the Consolidated Gas
case is no doubt true, but that is not
the whole story. The spectators GAM
bled on the result and got OF wrong
Making allowance for reaction on this
account, the situation so far rs the
stock exchange is concerned is not re-
assuring. Mr.. CIews turns from stocks
TO bonds. and says:
THE outlook for the market is still
problematicaL Speculative leaders have
received a sharp blow, and their efforts
to lift the market have been further inn
peded by the refusal nf investors to buy
stocks and their pronounced preference
for bonds. Much less of the $3.50, geo, 600
Of January disbursements have come
back into stocks than usual, chiefly be-
cause prices are too high. With the
prospect of easy money for the next two
months at least, the position of the bond
market is further strengthened. Now
that the technical position of stocks
has so materially weakened, it looks as
II little betterement could be expected
until values had reached a lower level
Prices have shown some decline since
the election and occasional rallies NAV
be expected, but no marked advance
seems likely until liquidation is more
complete and a more attractive basis is
reached for both the investment and
speculative buyer. Stocks have alto
gether overdiscounted the recovery of
1908. and they must return to a level
more normal and more in keeping with
the present conservative tone and mod
crate volume of general business"

which the prosperity of the country can
be gagged, the situation has not ma
