New York, Aug. 1.-Europe bought
American stocks very confidently to-day.
In the London market, through which
most of the European transactions in
American securities are conducted, our
shares advanced y to points before
the local opening. and in this market
European purchases made a grand total
of $1,000 to $1,000 shares.
The New York market. conforming as
usual with the simultaneous London
prices, opened with considerable ad-
vances over yesterdays close, but all
desired was quickly supplied and there
after the market told the same old story
of declining prices under the influence of
determined liquidation.
Not even in the early trading. when
prices advanced for a short time, was
there a rally of any spirit, though on
every day OF this month except one the
stock market has declined and on the
exceptional day the recovery amounted
to less than one-half of l per cent.
To-day. as on previous days of the
decline. the stocks which suffered most
severely were old standard shares. and
particularly old standard railroad shares.
Several of the latter made new low
records for the year yesterday. many of
them did so to-day. and. among others,
there were these net losses at the close:
Amalgamated Copper. lis; American
Smelling and Rehning. 5-s; AtchisOn,

l-2; Southern Pacific, l l-2; Union Pa
cific. IA: Steel common. !.
The Washington herald., 1911-08-12

The particular weakness of Union Pa
cfic was ascribed to the retirement of
Mr.. Frick from the directorate of that
company on the assumption that many
investors considered Mr.. Frick's example
a good one to emulate. and 1t is probable
that other liquidation was stimulated by
Mr.. Frick's seeming curtainment of in
vestment holdings and the prevalent
opinion that many other men of wealth
have latterly converted their securities
into cash.
Publicly there were to-day two ex-
prevalent impression that men Ordina-
rily large holders OF securities have been
and are dispOsing of them out of weari-
ness over the conflict of ideas in work.
ing out the readjustment of business.
on the other hand, John u. Ryan, pres
ident of the Amalgamated Copper Com
pany, said to-day:
Men of large and small business alike
are complaining. and are generally fix
ing the blame for conditions on the agi-
tatiOn and interference with business by
men who have had no business training
and do not appear to realize the results
of the work in which, they are engaged u"
In a similar mood, President Wood. Of
the American Wool Company, said:
This session of Congress has greatly
demoralized the business Of the entire
country Its total cost in interruption
of business would be appalling If known.
However. the end of the session is
apparently in sight. Adjournment. will
bring relief, and ought to bring cOnsid

try itself is all right Business men

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Feeling of Confidence that autumn VIII Bring
Broadening in Actipity-Expansion
Seen by Bradstreefs.

New York, Aug. 11-Bradstreets, Au.
gust u, will say:
Orders for future delivery indicate fur.
ther moderate improvement in the trade
situation, house as well as road sales
expanding in fair degree. Talk from
buyers in general is optimistic enough.
but purchases on the whole show that
considerable caution prevails.
In some sections requests for ship
ments on orders that were held up last
month are being made. Dry goods, al
lied lines, and millinery lead in point of
relative activity.
Commodity prices, as measured by
Bradstreet's index number for August l
show an advance of seven-tenths of l
per cent over July l, and incidentally
the highest level since March. For the
week the swing in quotations for COM
mOdities has been rather confused,
though beef and hog products display
firm undertOne, with suggestions of even
higher prices later on. Drought and high
cost of feed due to crop deterioration
caused heavy marketing of live animals
earlier in the season, thus leaving d.
minished supplies for later in the year
Operations in textile mills are still being
curtailed. but there is more activity in
steel production.
Pig iron is firmer. but attractive busi-
ness in finished products reveals the ex-
istence of competition and some price
cutting Railway lines west OF the Mis-
souri, River are being urged to grant
shorter hours and higher pay to their
shop men. failing which strikes are
threatened. There is also some talk Of
teIegraphers joining in the movement,
which, II Is said. may spread to the
East. Railway traffic is improving, but
there is still much idle equipment.

New York, Aug. 11.-Dun's review Au-
gust IL, will say:
There is further evidence of a feel
ing of confidence that the autumn will
bring a broadening in trade activity,
while business now continues to expand
moderately. The large steel companies
are operating a greater percentage Of
finishing capacity than at any time be-
fore this year. Some of them are turn
ing out steel at the rate OF SOC per
cent of their maximum capacity; less
than two months ago the percentage was
barely TO-
The steel corporations usual monthly
statement OF untitled orders shows that
during July there was an increase of
approximately 10000 tons. In other
lines there is not the same volume OF
new business, but the output during re-
cent weeks has increased. Conservatism
still prevails In the dry goods markets:
trade in footwear continues quiet; the
wool market is steady and fairly active;
the yarn markets are irregular and tend
ing downward. The dry goods and foot
wear trades are typical of the existing
situation in general industry, here the
underlying conditions point to early bet
terment.
In the West there is fair activity in
retail trade and in the South and South
west a substantial expansion is noted in
the inquiry for material centering into
daily consumption. The disappointing
crop report of Wednesday. the severe
break in stocks and unsatisfactory rail-
road returns temper the feeling of opti-
mism previously prevailing. yet all the
statistics bearing on trade movements
are hopeful.
1T is still too early to predict conf
IDENTIFY that the crops will be small; there
may he some recovery in corn and
spring wheat while higher prices will in
part compensate for the reduced yield. "
