EUROPEAN SELLERS
CAUSE OF DECLINE

New York, September 1.-THE atti-
tude of European holders OF American
securities constituted the chief infiu-
ence last week in the stock market
The decline that began early in August
continued, and on several occasions
stocks touched new low points for the
year. 1t was apparent that unfavor-
able conditions in this country had
long ago been discounted by the saT. in
quotations, and the extension of the
downward movement led to the cir
culation of many alarmist reports that
the further drop was duo to pending
trouble in the financial world. These
reports proving unfounded. 1t became
increasingly apparent that foreign
liquidation was the principal factor TO
which the continued decline might rea-
sonably he ascribed.
Selling of stocks for foreign account
was heavy early in the week 1t was
attributed naturally to uncertainty as
to the outcome of the Moroccan i'm
oroglio. While International bankers
took the position that war was highly
improbabfs. tt was evident that the
greatest care would be observed in the
handling of securities until the situa-
tion abroad had been definitely set
tied. The effect OF these political con-
siderations was heightened by hnan-
cial conditions in Germany, whose posi-
ton was likened to that of this coun-
try before the panic of 1907 Over

OF most grain crops In that country
was about equal to last year. The
French crop report was also considered
pearisn, as It placed the total at 32O.-

and the weight GOT pounds. However,
IL must be borne in mind that last
years crop was far below the normal.
indeed France in ordinary Seasons

also ascribed in part to favorable re-
ports from Argentina and Australia.
Heavy Offerings Towards Close.
In the last half of the week there
was slow sagging tendency, as Of
ferngs were scarce Selling was
stimulated partly by favorable weather

ports of favorable prospects in Ar

was checked temporarily by reports

c'aiiy for export, whereas the receipts
AT primary points are lighter, COM
pared with year ago. The movement
at the principal centres is about 30
per cent less than in the correspond
Ing days last year. Meanwhile ex-
ports of wheat from Atlantic ports
show material enlargement, and hence
only unimportant increases In the Wis
fble supply are expected at a time
when 1t is customary to see big addi-
tions. In the final trading the de-
preston was partly ascr!bed to the
falling off In the export inquiry.
Weakness In Corn.
There was an undcrtone of weak
ness In the corn market, especially in
the distant deliveries In the West. Sep
TENDER contracts in Chicago were de-
cidedly stronger at times as big bull
operators Were manoeuvring to force
shorts into covering. On the other
hand. the distant deliveries were more
freely offered is crop prospects were
considered brighter. owing to recent
rains and unusually hot weather for
the season, the mercury being around
IL" degrees for short time in Kan
sas. As a result, farmers have been
showing more willingness to accept
current bids. Consequently, 1t is ex-
pected that receipts at country sta
lions will soon become heavier. The
comparative strength In cash property
for immediate delivery was partly
ascribed TO continued fairly active eX-
p~rt buying. European markets have
been decidedly strong much of the
time. owing to the scarcity of fodder

business enterprises with borrowed
capital resulted in severe financial
strain when demand was made upon
Berlin for repayment of credits by
Paris and London. Forced liquida-

can stocks which bore the brunt of this
selling. There was. however, selling
in London for Berlin account. Berlin

New York bankers to supply deficien-
cfes caused by Withdrawals by Paris.
Forced liquidations ceased toward
the end OF the week, and some buying
for foreign account was reported This
change in front was simultaneous
with the appearance OF more cheerful
reports from the European capitals.
The effect upon the New York mark IT
was apparent in its greater power OF
resistance to selling, and the sharp re-
coveries which followed each decline.
