NEW YORK MONEY.

effect on the local money market 50 far as the

Financiers viii Discuss Ad-
visibility of Resuming
Public Trading.
CHICAGO MARKET OPENS
No Undue Excitement Attends Re
sumption of Trading. and
Prices Are Firm.

New York, Nov. B-The governors of
the New York Stock Exchange will meet
tomorrow to discuss the advisability OF
resuming public trading in bonds under
specified restrictions.
This subject was freely discussed by
members today and the opinion pre-
vailed that the time was ripe for public
trading. The continental investor" re-
marked the head of an international
bond house, finds himself without any
market, although his holdings have been
well diversified. What were prime in
vestments in Spain, France, Africa or
South America are without any kind OF
a market today, and the re-establish-
ment of a market for American bonds
would, in my opinion, result in heavy
selling for foreign account as our market
would afford the only means Of pro-
curing cash at a time when the demand
for ready money overshOws any consid-
Grafton of safety of principal and sta
bility of interest return
No Prospect of Open Market
Stock brokers admit that the ques-
ton of reopening the stock exchange is
out of their hands. but many agree
that the establishment of a cash market
for trading in Industrial and traction
issues under the minimum prices estab-
lished might, be undertaken, and thar
this move would have the same stimulal-
ing effect that followed the resumption
of trading on the curb and the reopen
ing of the cotton exchange.
Dealings in listed railroad stocks with
the London exchange closed no doubt
would place the American investor at
serious disadvantage. Under the present
rigid censorship in England, news of an
important victory or defeat could be
withheld for hours, while full advantage
of the information might be taken in
the stock market. Then there is no
lodging the disagreeable conclusion on

Club owners have tired OF putting up

latest demand that he be paid $50 900 for a
signature on a Federal contract. That
means S7OQ a game assuming that he would
