WHEAT SCARS ON
EXPORT BUYING
Action of Great Britain in
Reducing Ocean Rates
EXCiteS Market

Wheat prices advanced anywhere
from to cents q bushel in North
American markets yesterday on the re-
port that the British government had
officially fixed the freight rate on grain
between this continent and Great
Britain at Sd. per bushel, whereas the
rate heretofore has been lad. Such a
reduction means a saving to the buyer
of approximately IS cents bushel, and
buying for export developed on an
enormous scale, sales for the day be-
ing placed at 100000 bushels.
In the Chicago wheat market there
vas a general stampede on the part Of
spectators to buy when 1t became
evident that the British government was
preparing to move out large quantities
Of wheat bought in this country and
Canada.
Bullish activity was further stimu-
lated by reports Of snowstorms in
Saskatchewan. where It is said less
than half of the wheat raised this sea-
son has been thrashed, and also by
crop complaints from Argentina, where
a total loss is reported in some sec
tions, leading to the lowest estimates
yet received as to that country's ex-
portable surplus.

A popular war loan" appears to
be a good deal Of myth. Germany
has boasted more Of financing the
cost Of war with money or credit OBJ
tanned direct from the people than
either Great Britain or France, but
in Germany, as elsewhere, the act
ual proceeds Of popular subscrip-
tons are unimportant- Figures are
now at hand on the fifth German
loan. The number of subscribers
taking less than 200 marks $500
each declined and the money aggre-
gate Of their subscriptions was less
than in the preceding loan. The
number of such subscribers and the
total amount subscribed by them
for each Of the five loans are as fol-
lows:

Evidently It has become a source
of some embarrassment to Mr.. VIII
son that Wall Street is not against
him. He beats it with words and il
does not mind. OF those three
and-a-half million" whose leaders,
according TO his political magma
ton, would have the scalp of the
Controller of the Currency, would
control the banking system and
would put the army and navy be-
hind their financial adventures in
foreign lands-even of these many
are buying stocks without caring in
the least who wins the election. The
odds on Mr.. Hughes have fallen;
stocks have not fallen at the same
time. Nobody in Wall Street has
cared. Spectators who had sold too
many stocks and wished to get them
back have tried several times to pro-
duce a Wilson scare" They have
succeeded only in losing more stocks,
because the outside public has not
cared, either, and has bought Sc
curities in a beautifully non-partisan
spirit.

NEWS DEPRESSES
LONDON MARKET
Parliament Will Discuss
Ireland and Rise of
Prices
By FRANCIS W. HIRST
[By Cable 70 The Tribuns.


London. Oct. 1.-THE Stock Ex-
change continued dull to-day. The
weather was as depressing as the
newspapers.
Parliament will discuss the rise
Of prices and Irish affairs this week,
also the question whether conscrip-
ton should be made more severe
and whether more men can be
spared from British industry for
the army. The lack of Irish recruits
is being emphasized in the press.
Swedish newspaper reports sug-
gest the present premier may re-
sign, which would explain the post
ponement of the sending Of a COM
mercial commission to London.
General Page Croft has returned
from the front to direct the Tariff
Reform League campaign and es-
tablish, with the aid of "The Morn
ing Post" a national party. He de-
clares that many Cobdenites have
reversed their old convictions. I'm
repentant free traders are, of course,
called pro-Germans.
At the meeting Of the British
Bank for Foreign Trade yesterday
Bilch Crisp explained how the bank
promoted Anglo-Russian commerce
and finance before the war. He re-
iterated his objection to the govern
ment entering the banking business
with subsidies. He also explained
the extent of capital losses through
the depreciation of securities. Thus,
in January, 1911, consols stood at
1914, as against STA now.

Total operating revenues last year

Freight revenue advanced s4,S26,6S3,
there having been a substantial increase
in the total tonnage of commodities
handled. The number of passengers
carried was less by 6l2,3S1 than in the

The Dollar in Foreign Exchange

Weakness in Russian rubles was the
outstanding feature Of the foreign re-
mittance market. On a small amount
Of business they dropped to 81 cents,
compared with 31.60 Monday. So far
there has been no explanation of the
steady decline Of the past fortnight
other than the cessation Of purchases
for speculative account Buying Of
this character sent the rate TO 81 cents
in September, but since then the move
ment has been In the other direction.
Sterling rates were unchanged at
4.75%, the arrival Of s50o0,0 900 in gold
from Ottawa having no apparent effect.
Francs were shade easier, while
marks were firm.

In the opinion of the Secretary
of the Treasury, American finance
Is controlled by two. kinds Of
men. One kind believed in Mr.. Nc
Adoo during all the time he was
leading the Hudson River tube prof.
ect into bankruptcy. The other kind
did not. They placed themselves for
ever at that time. The implications
are clear. One kind Of financier be-
lieves in imagination, has q feeling
for people and does not mind losing
money in a romantic enterprise. All
of the other kind are selfish, put
profit above socialness and insist
unreasonably upon solvency. The
Controller Of the Currency out Of
his experiences has been able to
evolve a formula almost as simple.
Good financiers are those who stood
for the !nalienable right Of John
ChelCOO w lllldluS W run a Idlll Odu
whether he could keep it solvent or
not. All others are doubtful TO bad.
Thought Of the Administration
naIvely receiving its impressions Of
finance from these two would have
been at one time source Of extreme
anxiety to Wall Street, Now it does
not matter. There Is a Federal Re-
serve Board between the banking in
dustry and this queer survival Of
Federal government. A Secretary
of the Treasury who prefers to thinl:
In terms Of insolvency and a Con-
troller Of the Currency who cannot
always distinguish between a private
quarrel and a public question are
but harmless irritations. Wall
Street cares as little for the friend
illness Of one as for the scalp Of the
other.

Money and Credit

Money on call at the New York Stock
Exchange stiffened sharply, rising to a
high of per cent, and closing at BIZ.
Most Of the loans were placed on a 3
per cent basis, compared with 2h per
cent on Monday. Calling Of loans, as
a result Of the final banking operation
in connection with the City Of Paris
s50,000,000, was the principal cause OF
the furry. One bank that put out s1o,-
100000 at PA per cent Monday called
100000 Of It yesterday. About ST.
100000 loaned at per cent and at the
close a substantial amount was offered
by the banks at that figure.
Ruling rates on money yesterday
compared with q year ago were as fol-
lows:

GOLD AGAIN COMING
HERE FROM CANADA
Arrival Of $5,0O0,000 Believed
to Presage New Movement

Gold imports were resumed yester-
day after a suspension of nearly q
month, consignment of $4,000, 900 be-
ing received from Ottawa. The metal
came in the form Of Ottawa mint bars
and was deposited at the Assay Office
to the account of J. P. Morgan & Co.
1t Is believed that this is the begin
ming of another substantial influx Of
gold.
Up until yesterday there had been
no gold arrivals since September %,
when the record movement Of sS7,0o0,-
900 in the first three weeks Of the
month eliminated in the receipt of s6,-
100000. Bankers interested in the
British credit situation said the sudden
cessation was due to a request from
this side. II was stated only last week,
however, that another movement was
imminent inasmuch as Great Britain
had accumulated a large amount OF
gold both in London and in Canada for
this purpose.
Total gold receipts since the begin
ming Of the movement In May now
amount to s314,5O0,000. The Assay
Office had only completed the work of
handling the big August and Septem-
Der arrivals when imports were re-
sumed yesterday. Last week the last
lot was melted and assayed, and now
awaits transference to the Sub-Treas-
ury, where vault space il assigned for
the storage of gold bars for account
Of the Assay Office.
