excess of last year in more than one d.
rection. The moro sober sense OF the fl
nancIal community deprecated the too
rapid initiation Of security prices. The
recuperatiou was too rapid TO prove sound
and lasting, The stimulated movement In
stocks was reflected as IL WAS designed

various commodities without giving time
for accumulation OF capital In savings or

the crisis OF 1907.
Initiation of values checked the coun-

The conviction long held that there
were important speculative commitments
OF long standing I'm the stock market was
strengthened by the events OF last week.
These holdings were based on an obsti-

BARNES ATTACKS
 T. ROOSEVELT
Especial from United Press. ).

Albany, Sept. 22.-William Barnes, Jr., Republican Old Guard leader, made a Vitriolic attack on Colonel Roosevelt at the First Assem- bly, Dis- trict here today, assailing him for trying to control the Republican party and it's candidates by appeal to passion
 The Republican party in this state is facing g more serious crisis than many imagine" said Barnes. f'The traditions and history, the very mean ing of the party has been assailed by an individual who seeks to control it's policies and candidates by appeal to passion. The issues at Saratoga must be joined sharply. The con stitution of the United States and decisions of the Supreme Court have been assaiIed by the fiat of a single individual and hailed by some to be more important than the opinions of those whose interest in the party has been largely unselfish.''
