pear that congress takes any special
interest in developing trade with
South America after the canal is open
to the shipping of the world. Eut
foreign nations are not so n%eglactful.
Undeniably the United States has
shown the highest constructive ganlus
in building the canal, and extraor-
binary liberality in paying for it.
What about making the best S OF
its utilities? France failed in build
ing the canal, both in the financial
requirements and in sanitation. 1t

Situation As Viewed
From Wall Street

New York, Aug. 26.-The leadinb
| shares have shown decided reaction
airy tendencies during the past week
owing to realizations prompted by
damage to the corn crop and disturb.
ing Mexican rumors. The damage to
corn IS evidently serious-one au-
thority placing the total crops as low
as $3.50, 900, 900 bushels. This esti-
mate ! think will prove extreme.
especially in view of improved con.
ditions in the northern corn belt and
the fact that recent rains have aided
the balance Of the crop. The effect.
however, was chiefly one of dlsap-
pointment in expectations which had
risen to a 5000, 100000 bushel level
for the corn crop. Fortunately the
crop damage is by no means a Gala
nifty. Even in the states most at
fected other crops such as wheat. al
falfa, etc, have been sufficiently good
to largely Offset the loss in corn.
Higher prices for the latter article
will also come as a boon to many
growers who will benefit by the losses
VI OLlCl0s uCu CHC SoI 40
gathered, it is quite likely that in
money value it will closely approx
mate the returns for last year, which
were estimated at about $500, 100000.
The Mexican situation has naturally
disturbed confidence, and more per-
haps than is necessary. President
Wilson has a strong grip upon the
government and a very exceptional
influence upon congress. 1t is known
that he is resOlutely opposed to any
such thing as war with Mexico. aud
his quiet, patient but firm manner OF
dealing with the problem is more
likely than any other to lead to a
peaceful and satisfactory solution.
In general business there are symp-
toms or revival. Some of Jul largest
distributors both in the west and in
this city report business fully as
larg Elm volume as they expect. A
conservative mood still prevails
among all classes of business men.
chiefly owing to tariff and currency
uncertainties, also to the general poll
teal TENDENCIES of today. October is
now set as the date for passing the
tariff bill, and the currency bill at
best cannot be secured until some
weeks later. The currency measure
at the moment is much confused by
opposition, but here again the sound
reasoning and calm resolution OF the
president is an element which may
have much influences IN securing IA
vorable results. 1t is altogether too
early to give up hope Q. fsecuring a
reasonably good currency bill before
the present congress adiourns. Much
will depend upon the action OF the
conference of bankers in Chicago. now
in session.
There has been further improves
rment in the money market. which is
best illustrated in the freer offerings
of commercial paper at lower rates.
In some cases considerable sums have
been placed at as low as S Ia per
cent for four months. Bankers. how
ever, are still disseminating as to Dor,
rowers, as seems desirable in view
Of the statements produced by the
last bank call, which in some cases
showed that loans had not contracted

as much as had been expected while
reserve items had actually decreased
There is no reason, however, Tor I'M
easiness regarding the monetary out
look, which has been made practically
safe by the positive and liberal policy
of Secretary McAdoo. We will soon
be in the hight Of the crop moving
season, and the efficacy Of his course
of action will be more distinctly felt.
One of the most satisfactory fea-
lures in the monetary situation is
the check upon new issues. Returns
for the month Of August promise to
show Il material decline IN this re-
spect, both at home and abroad.
Meanwhile dividends continue on a
satisfactory basis, the distribution at
the end of this month, according to
published returns, being eel $4,000
900 in excess of last years figures.
As there has been no material check
p o general prosperity and TIE dis
position in all directions has been
to spend more carefully, it would
seem as if public savings were in
creasing and that new issues of Il
more desirable sort should find a bet
ter market later on. Something. how.
ever. must be done to restore the
confidence Of investors. whose inter-
ests have i nmany cases been severe.
ly shocked and injured by the unrea-
sonable and hostile attitude to capital
shown so frequently by legislators
and government officials. This tend
ency if continued will inevitably tend
to drive capital out OF the country
or into more congenial occupations.
The outlook for the market has its
favorable features. A sharp reaction
has taken place during the current
week owing to profit taking induced
by conditions referred to above. This
has really strengthened the market,
for the supply of floating stock is
small and the securities sold have
generally passed into strong and
competent hands. When absentees
return from vacations. which will be
soon, we may look for a broader and
stronger market. Many issues have
hitherto been neglected. the advances
having been largely confined to a
few leading stocks. particularly Steel
and Union Pacific. What the out
come of the dissolution OF the latter
will be is still somewhat of a prob
lem, since it is not yet know" to what
use the Union Pacific surplus, amount
ing to nearly $140. 100000, will be
placed.
The European markets show a
hardening tendency, and, while they
are still suffering from the after ef-
fects Of the Balkan war and an ar
rested trade development. the outlook
is for steady recuperation as far as
monetary limitations will permit.
Needless to- say, any Improvement IN
financial conditions abroad will be
reflected in this market. for foreign
buyers recognize that at present val
ues American stocks are frequently
the most attractive to investors in
the world. At this writing the mar
ket seems largely under the Influence
of the Mexican situation. which at
best is mixed and disturbing. Until
this is adjusted purchases should be
conducted with caution.

A LESSON FROM EUROPE.

St. Louis Globe-Democrat: Alter a
Journey over Germany, ex-Gov. Stubbs
OF Kansas writes home: Germany
has solved the question of transport
tation cost. l am convinced that il
the United States will develop its in.
ternal waterways system, even to a
small extent, the complaint Of high
freights will no longer be heard. II
is marvellous how Germany has o n
nected her cities and rivers with a
network of canals. A New York to
Chicago canal would pay for itself
in five years" A d%eepened MISSISSIPPI
pi would be Of still greater advan-
tage. Gov. Stubs refers to improved
channels and canals. with a perma-
nent depth sufficient to accommodate
traffic on a large scale. Such water
ways have been provided throughout
Germany and France, and extensions
are under way all the time. Ship wat.
erways are built there, and rivers are
deepened and canalized. The cost
has been hundreds of millions, but
the resulting transportation facilities
are universally admitted to be worth
more.

NEXT YEARS CONGRESSIONAL
CAMPAIGNS.

The republicans are on the v OF
selecting a committee to conduct
their congressional campaigns next
year. 1t is important party service.
and usually committed to experience
ed politicians. Committeeman should
know the country and political con-
ditions thoroughly, and be- alive to
all the opportunities, says the Wash
ington Star.
This time the republican commit
teemen should possess also the knack
of diplomacy. They will have more
to do than fighting the democrats.
Republican divisions persist, and, if
possible, must be healed. Unless the
so-called bull moosers "a be induced
to return to their old allegiance, at
least for next years fight. the demo-
Gratis will have an easy victory.
At present the republican hope is
in the tariff. They are persuaded
that the country will not like the
Underwood revision, and particularly
the announcement that it is a step in
the direction of eliminating protec-
ton altogether from the American
scheme of taxation, the remaining
steps to be taken as rapidly as pos
sible.
Now the bull moosers, including
their chief, are protectionists. Mr..
Roosevelt, while in the White House,
was a standpatter. He stood so pat
on the tariff he prevented the revi-
sion of the Dingley law, which Presi-
dent Mckinley with his last breath
had recommended.
But with the tariff at last a live
issue-one of the livest--the bull
noosers declare themselves. They
are for protection, properly adjusted,
and see in the democratic tariff pro-
gram a menace to both capital and
labor.
Here then is a plain duty for all
who profess and call themselves pro-
tectionists if the Underwood revision
in operation verities their prediction.
If it does diminish the earnings Of
capital and reduce the scales of wag.
es, giving foreigners a better chance
in our markets than ever before, the
protectionists in order to resume con
troll must get together. Continued
division will mean continued reverses
for protection, and the ultimate tri-
umph of free trade. 10 i, :
AS for the old feature of campaign
ing-the raising Of money for ex-
penses, the employment of canvassers
and agents, and the general direction
of affairs at headquarters-both par
ties, owing to criticisms provoked by
the revelations Of recent investiga-
tons, may find it advisable to pro
coed with care. 1t takes a great deal
of money, legitimately raised and ex-
pended, to make the mare 60, but all
accounts henceforth will be subject
ed to an unusually close scrutiny.
Hence solicitors of campaign funds
and subscribers, and spenders, will
all alike find it advisable to walk
warily.

to admit foreigners to membership
until they have been in America at
least one year. In the past 1t a
been the practice of the union to ad-
nit foreigners who held union cards
from their own unions abroad, but
the older members of the union, 1t
is said, have discovered that it is be-
coming more difficult for them to
sretin their jobs or find new ones,
while the foreigners have been given
preference in some Of the large cigar
factories.
