A BUSINESS REVIEW OF THE
PAST WEEK BY HENRY CLEWS

over expansion of loans by western in
stitutions frequently on collateral of
questioned stability. There has been
a great land boom all through the west
in which state and national banks and
other financial institutions have had
much to do in financing. While there
has been an unquestioned and healthy
rise in land values still excess has
broken out in many places, and there
is danger of reaction. With SO large
an amount of funds locked up in such
operations the western banks will be
less able to take care of the crops in
the fall than usual. This means firm
rates for money when the crop move
ment begins and New York may be
called. upon for assistance to larger
extent than for several years. Little
aid can be obtained from the treasury
in event of pinch. for government
funds are at low ebb, and the bor-
rowing capacity of the treasury is also
crippled, while there is no prospect of
any thorough currency. legislation dur
ing the present session of congress.
The monetary movement therefore is
one which will require close watching
and skillful plotting during the next
two Or three months.
Our railroad situation is also not
without it's embarrassing features.
Gross earning. it is true, exhibit hand
some increases, but net returns do not
show corresponding gains, and in many
cases they are showing actual losses.
The latter may become still more ap-
parent when the recent advances in
wages begin to show their effect. The
railroads had hoped to recoup them
selves by and advance in rates. To a
limited extent they have succeeded:
but all further efforts to advance rates
are sure to meet with very strenuous
opposition on the part OF the shippers
and in the present hostile attitude of
public opinion, the chances of the rail
roads being able to compensate them
selves for recent increased outlays is
not at all brilliant. The fate of the Taft
railroad bill is also matter of much
Importance. That measure is now in
very drastic form, and though it can
not pass in it's present shape the un-
certainty is discouraging to the large
financial interests and Europe. it must
be remembered is much Influenced by
the attitude of congress towards the
railroads.

New York. May 3O.-Efforts to lift
the stock market have thus far met
with only occasional success, and ar
guments in favor of higher prices fail
to enlist the desired attention of the
buyers. Whether this is because of
suspicion that the big men have been
encouraging rise for the purpose of
ridding themselves OF surplus stocks,
or whether it is due to other and as
yet unrecognized tendencies remains to
be seen. Compared with the high
prices OF last year good stocks certain
ly look cheap, and yet there are some
unpleasant features developing the out
come OF which must be awaited with
patience. Possibly the power to alb
sorb stocks has been temporarily i'm
paired by recent heavy issues, or else
investors may be holding back for bet
ter terms. In the latter attitude they
are meeting with no little encourage
ment. Philadelphia could not place a
loan at 4 per cent, but might have sue
ceeded at "A per cent, the Pennsyl-
vania railroad having no difficulty in
disposing of considerable issue on a
~ per cent basis. Chicago has just
been obliged to pay AZ per cent for a
new loan. At last the unprecedented
demands upon capital are beginning to
have their effect. There are signs of a
temporary exhaustion of buying pow
err, and those who have money to in
vest are naturally demanding better re-
turns. The delay in announcing the is
sue of bonds abroad has also exerted
discouraging effect, it now being sew
eral weeks since rumors were current
that Europe was about to buy $500
100000. while little more than $1OO,,
100000 have only thus far been taken
European buyers also appear to be in
sisting upon better terms. Needless
to say such conditions in the invest
ment market are not favorable to high
err prices for stocks.
The money situation is also prob.
ly superficial. Interior banks have been
superficial. Interior banks have been
contracting their loans when possible
and sending funds to New York. the
result being an ample supply here OF
