[By Cable to The Tribune
Paris. July 17.-There is an idea
current that the war must increase
considerably the value of the stocks
of establishments which work Tor the
war administration. Certain jour
nails have supported this theory by
comparing the values at the end OF
July, 1914, with the present prices
but the date was badly chosen be-
cause the Bourse then was dominated
by the apprehension of war. Prices
must be compared with a normal
wear. and it will be found that few
war stocks are now higher than IN
1913.
The hay crop has been good, al
though suffering from rains and the
lack of farmhands. The wheat crop
is announced to be rather good. The
wine crop, although not called very
good, will be superior to last years.
The market has been closed since
July IA. There has been raise IN
8 per cent rentes to $3.50. The
liquidation was effected without in
cident, and the interest rate on the
carryover remained at A per cent.
To-day at the office of the CONNER
cial attache of the American En-
bassy there was reception to f. A.
Brand, assistant chief of the Bureau
of Foreign and Domestic Commerce.
Mr.. Brand made a speech to which |
had the pleasure Of responding on
the subject of commercial friendli-
ness of France and America.
