DEATH
FELT ON STREET

NEW YORK. May 1s.-The stock mar
ket has rarely met the death of a capt.
taiist of foremost prominence with lit
tie disturbance was caused by the
sudden death of H. H. Rogers this morn
ing. It was concluded from this that
there WAS little ground for the anxiety
professed for several days past that the
speculative position had become unstable
and vulnerable. Prices have suffered
more serious setbscks often on rumors of
Mr.. Rogers death or serious illness than
happened today following his death. Mr..
Rogers has represented to the Wall street
supposition as much as any one the
central figure of the vaguely defined
Standard oil group" which is the most
potent of all the dinly spppehended forces
which work concealed from view and sup
pesedly armed with the most complete
knowledge OF conditions and control over
their regulation. The sudden removal Of
such a force may have disastrous conse-
ouences to speculative position, as in the
case of the sudden death Of former Gov
ernor Flower in the crisis of an excessive
speculation in which he had been the con-
trolling figure.
Factors Of encouragement in the outlook
which have been in allegiance for several
days came into play again. United States
Steel, of winch Mr. Rogers was director.
was conspicuously strong. rising through
its previous record price of 5Ss< 10 59s4.
Chesapeake & Ohio at so also touched a
price never reached before by that stock.
The movement in steel was attributed to
the restoration of wages by the independ-
ent steel companies, and the inferences
drawn from that action 70 the return
ing profits Of the industry even at the low
cred price at which the recent heavy orders
have been booked. News from the copper
trade continued very encouraging, and
buoyant rise IN ooppers was in progress in
the London market when the decline in
Amalgsmated copper on account Of the
death Of the president of the company
checked the advance.
Crop news was considered favorable in
spite Of the rise in the price of wheat.
The further outgo of gold to France had
no influence. Currency continues TO ar
rive in such volume from the interior as
to serve as an effective Offset. The con-
troller's abstract of national bank reports
for April rs shows an expansion of up
ward of sl22, ooo, 900 in loans since the
date Of the last reports on February 5,
while the comparison with May IA last
year shows a growth in banking credits Of
szsz. 76z, 900. This showing for a period
when the use of credits for mercantile
purposes was sluggish reveals the extent
70 which securities have been absorbed By
LII -
the loan account.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, S4.T72. 900.
