New York, September 1O.-The senti-N
mt of satisfaction over the immediate
financial outlook which is gathered by in
quiry finds its only reflection in the stock
market in an absence of selling pressure
The handful of stocks which changed
hands during the days session is demon
strative of the stagnant demand. The
present strength of the money position
in New York is felt to be due to the re-
straint of the stock market for several
months past The desirability of con-
serving money resources for the fall Is a
prime factor in the present stag lation of
the stock market. Returns to the con-
troller show that the New York national
banks expanded loans nearly $50, 900 oO0
from June 30 to September l, but redis-
counting for interior banks and CONNER
cial accommodation were responsible for
this and not stock market credits.
1t is significant that funds of out of
town banks are appearing In New York
again to be placed in collateral loans
The rapid movement of new grain, 1t is
believed, is supplying resources to farm
ers for liquidation of loans in land and
automobile purchases and the favorable
effect Is looked for in the returns of ma
tional banks of conditions on September
l, which are now being compiled by the
controller.
:, The British treasury today redeemed
s2cO00,o00 of its bills and next week will
ieem $25,00O,O00, thus returning t. the
0ney market part of the plethoric gov
nment deposits in the Bank of Eng
and, Any need for gold in New York
Ill lie facilitated by this condition. The
rowth of the supply of grain and cot
On bills in the exchange market con-
II auces to the same end. Predicted frosts
in the corn belt failing to materialize,
caused a decline in that market The
surplus of idle freight cars showed an
other sharp contraction. Another decline
in Union Pacific convertible bonds, with
an advance in the stock, was considered
to be designed to correct disparity in the
proportionate prices of the two securi-
ties. The August decrease of 49,, S03 tons
in the untitled orders on hand of the
United States steel corporation compared
with falling off during July of 2S6,S63
tons was not known on the stock market
exchange until just at the close of the
day.
The actual showing of the bank state
ment was closely in agreement with pre-
liminary estimates.
Bonds were irregular, total sales, par
value, $500. 5000
United States bonds were unchanged on
call from last week.

From the Century Magazine.
Boggs, cadet cavalry officer at West
Point academy, was an assistant in the
riding hall. On one occasion he over
heard Whistler. who thoroughly disliked
to ride, Directing strenuously to the horse
brought for his use. The horse, he
argued, was too heavily built, and much
too large for man of his size Whistler,
with much vehemence, urged the man
next him to swap" The man with
whom he wished to exchange horses was
OF muscular build and pretty generous
size" and his horse a lightweight ami
NAL, so it seemed to Whistler that it
would be a most fitting exchange"
'Oh, don't swap, don't you swap Mr.
Whistler cried the dragon; yours is
a war-horse, SIR"
"A war-horse!' exclaimed whistler.
THAT settles it. I certainly don't want
him..
Eyes, you do. SIR" reiterated the man;
''he's a war-horse l tell you," for he'd
ather die than run"

Hubbard Bros. a Co... Letter

New York, September 9.--(Special.)-
From Europe the advices were favor
able but offset by the disappearance of
the storm in the gulf which brought
about the recovery yesterday after
noon. The market was a small one
throughout the session without a ten
dency toward a lower level, though
the trade looks for a close squeeze in
Liverpool on September. Mall advices
from that market state that the stock
of cotton held there on consignment
from New York is offered for sale on
q basis sharply below the price on
which cotton can be imported. 1t is,
of course, sold at this level, with the
restriction that 1t must not be rendered
for delivery. After the close selling
orders came from the south and were
placed at from to 4 points lower
than the last quotation. Spinners have
bought freely during the last 10 days
on this level of prices and the future
course of the market depends on their
action, which. in turn, we believe, will
be governed by the weather. 1t is
thought by the trade that any decline
will be slow.

From Success Magazine.
People who followed the stories of the
Roosevelt familys travel In Africa and
Europe will have taken note Of the
modesty the uniform excellent taste and
good sense which marked Mrs. Roose-
velt's part in the ceremonies Of which
her famous husband was the center.
Mrs. Roosevelts name appeared little in
the newspapers; she attracted just as
little attention as possible to herself,
and she succeeded in enlisting the sympa-
thetic cooperation of the American cor
respondents In keeping her in the back
ground. Mrs. Roosevelt's social skill
never showed to better advantage than
during this tour. She managed always
to avoid either the extreme of self-ef-
facement or any undue assumption that
the distinctions showered upon Colonel
Roosevelt were intended for anybody else
than him.

America. Yarns were quiet and a six
teenth lower.

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, September 10.-Cotton fu-
lures opened steady at decline of to
A points. Gables were somewhat better
than expected, but the ring paid little
attention to the Liverpool market. Bears
found encouragement In the continued
rains In Texas and also In the fact that
apparently the tropical storm had spent
itself with little damage to cotton. Tele-
grams told of damage by heavy winds
along the Mississippi coast, but no dam
age to cotton worth mentioning was re-
ported. Scalping longs were disposed to
even up oyer the weekend, which added
to offerings At the end OF the first half
hour of trading the more active months
were points down.
Weaker shorts commenced to buy COW
ers on the decline and this buying in
creased toward the middle of the morn
ing with the result that the decline was
recovered and replaced by a net advance
of to 4 points. The market had little
strength, however, and a very moderate
amount of selling during the latter half of
session served to put prices down to the
lowest levels of the day again. Longs were
responsible for this eeond decline as Il
was caused chiefly by their liquidation
OF contracts. Tho weather forecast pre-
dicted fair weather In the western belt
over Sunday with the exception of rain
for he Lopjsiapa and Texas coasts, end
