FRESH ACTIVITY
In Variety of Specialties Not Usually
Prominent in Dealings.

New York, Oct 1.-THE speculation
in stocks today threw off some of the
restraint which has kept it in check.
The fresh activity was most cons picu-
Gus in a variety of specialties not US
ually prominent in the dealings and
many of these were of the low priced,
on-dividend paying class. A reason
for this was found in the narrow re-
sources of the money market and the
smaller supply of credits requisite for
carrying on operations in the low
priced stocks. In most of these move
ments specific explanations were lack
ing and it was generally assumed that
newly formed market pools were re-
spOnsible for most of the demOnStra-
tons The supposition that powerful
private bankers were supplying re-
sources and influence to help the ad-
vance encouraged a following by the
professional element. The spotty char
acter Of the market and the unrespon-
siveness of a number of important
railroad Industrial stocks to the move
ment were significant of the lack of
full accord amongst the great banks
in furthering the movement.
The explanation of the reluctance
Of the banking community as whole
to see active speculation is found in
the continuance of the drain on ash
holdings and the consequent impair
ment of lending power Of banks. The
sub treasury is making heavy demands
again on the banks. the Withdrawals
of cash by that institution for the
banking week already having reached
s3.1S1.000. Shipments to the interior
also are going forward by express,
October Is finds some large dividend

as an effect of the slightly increased
demand incident to the days specula-
tive requirements.
Yesterdays government crop report
furnished the broad general inspra-
ton for the stirring of speculative
confidence. The certainty of agricuI-
tural crops exceeding in value that
have ever before been garnered makes
an insurance for the materials of pros
peritv which is expected to effect the
whole industrial and business move
ment in the future. The special prom
