unfortunate aspect Of the last terrific

as q basis for stock market speculation
Is enormous To see that fruit OF la

Holders Of Liberties. who lost them In
stock market speculation, may well take
an example from those who know how
to prize their possessions and jealousy
guard them. The break In the market
ought to bring home now, If It ever does
the fact that trading on a slight market
is an extremely hazardous enterprise
We have no figures TO show how IN

fected, but we venture to assert thai
many speculative account was wiped
out, which is nothing new. It has hap
pened before and will happen again. The
rush TO make n fortune IN the stock

as he thought. but that he Is lucky IL he

According TO commission house gossip.
the real profiters by the shakeout last
week were two or three plunging indi-
viduals In New York and clique in
Chicago. headed by what is known as
the Texas Company crowd. Those Chi
cago operators have been very bearish
since first intimatioa was, given, two
weeks ago, that the packers were under
fire. They started the selling right and
left ut that time and have fed the mar
ket quantities of stock since. Jesse I.iv-
ermore is said to have been the largest
individual seller in Wall Street. It is
reported that from 2 o'clock on Friday
afternoon until yesterday noon he COW
cred short sales of approximately 1885,
900 shares OF stock. A group OF up
town operators. known as the Waldorf
crowd. has sold stocks right and left dur
ing the week and is known to have taken
several good sizod fortunes out Of the
market. Pool operators in several cases
have received n sound whipping. Sew

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.


Most OF professional Wall Street II of
the opinion that prices will work into
higher gnound during the coming week.
Although most of the commission house
letters which went out over the week
end continue to caution against over
trading and over-extension, many of
them point out what are believed to be
bargains In the market and all Of them
have q bullish tinge. Hayden. Stone
q Co. sayi 1--WE feel that the technical
situation IL improved and intrinsic value
of some stocks Is so great as likely to
lead to a temporary upturn. We also
believe that we are hear enough TO the
end of this era to make great caution

ment on n broad scale will be innugur-
ated until the track II clearer Of OBJ

assume that the stock p1arket n dis
counting, future defiation in credits,
commodities and labor, the break must
be considered as merely an incident In
the general upward tendency" Shon-
nard, Mills a Co. say: THE decline has
laid bare some extraordinary opportun-
tiles for both CLASSES of security market
dealings" Goodbody a Co. say; I'VE

lower average prices for stocks In the
near future" Merrill. Lynch q Co. say /:

A. A. Houssman a Co. say: "The situ-
alton has improved to the extent that
stocks are passing from weak into
strong hands" Paine, Weber 4 Co.
say: Conditions suggest conservatism

steel Tonnage Figures.

Wall Street was yesterday noon given
a good surprise, but 1t was q decidedly
pleasant surprise. IL was in the shape
OF the monthly steel tonnage figures.
which showed an increase of $500
tons compared with the last previous
months report While the financial
community was confidently expecting a
liberal increase in the untitled orders
on July 81. there were few who had
dared hope for such big advance.
Many expected that the increase would
be comparatively small and they based
their opinion on the fact that IN the
June report large orders by some Of the
big automobile companies. orders which
were not repeated In July, had been In
cluded. 1t Is evident from the statement
that the turn OF the corner has been
made by the steel Industry and that
the hang Off attitude adopted by buyers
of steel ever since the armistice was
signed, has been emplaced by one OF
eagerness to buy before prices 60 any
higher. Steel men declare that there
will be no cutting of steel prices. They
contend that the supply OF steel products
will not meet the demand which they
are looking for In the immediate future
On the other hand there are many of
those who are looking daily for the
announcement OF an Increase in steel
prices and II IL because OF that view
that there has been much recent buying
OF steel.

New Haven,

Wall Street had yesterday a little
morsel of gossip about New Haven TO

tiled with the Pennsylvania Railroad
and those connected with the New York

gossip. arc after the old 81 per cent. and
