 FEATURE OF THE STOCK MARKET CONDITIONS

, above the average. So all stories of Southern losses and consequent agita- tions should be received with core spending reserve.
 The money situation is reasonably satisfactory. Some slight stringency may develop towards the close of the year. but this will be only temporary. Funds will very soon be coming back more freely from the interior and con siderable American money is still em- ployed in Europe. where it can be re- called when necessary. The situation abroad is generally satisfactory Trade is more active in both England and Germany, and this in time should help the United States Our export trade reflects this condition and continues active with the foreign demand for American steel products still contin- uing marked feature. our own iron trade continues active and there are TO signs of abatement. Big orders for rails are coming in. and our car shops are overcrowded with orders. Prices are slightly firmer and about so per cert of the total capacity is fully em- ployed. Those best informed predict continued improvement in the iron trade. the railroads from sheer neces- sity being heavy buyers.
 Concerning the immediate future of the market, We would advise caution. In the active stocks there has now been an average rise since the low point Of last September ob about 10 points and considerably more in a number of the specialties. During the week there have been signs of realizing. and it must not be overlooked that stocks have been passing from strong into weaker hands Facts of some signifi- canoe regarding the ownership of our principal railroads and induStrials have been published this week. They showed that 234 railroad and industrial concerns with a combined capital of SlO. 700, 900 were owned by about 9S0.000 stockholders. their average holdings being about 109 shares The significant feature of this statement. however. was that on ar increase of only 112 per cent in capital reported there was an increase of : Ter cent il the number Of stockholders This rapid increase in the percentage of owners compared with the small per centage of increase in capital suggests a wider distribution Of securities among the public than hss been gen erally supposed. In some respects it is desirable that these holdings be more widely scattered. but the stock market is apt to take the view that speculative investments are passing in to weaker hands.

The most extensive application of acetylene is for lighting purposes. Acetyicne has quickly found favor with the automobile public because of it's intensely white light. which is gen erally considered the whitest artificial light, and. in fact, is as white as sun light The cause of this phenomenon lies in the high energy content of the acetylene.

suddenly springs an attack on Col.
