the battle Of ballots. DR.. John Dill
Robertson, Chicago health commis-
sioner, is chief surgeon for the re-
publican convention. He is opening
an emergeniy hospital in the Coli
scum annex and will have twenty-five
physicians and a like number of
nurses in attendance. From which it
may be surmised that a bloody en-
counter IL expected.
The Johnson supporters are plan

load Of California oranges and pop

day. Johnson delegates will make
their headquarters at the Sherman

gresham Jefferson NJ. Levy is chair
man. has received a telegram from the
Department of Justice announcing that
the departments views were ready to
be presented 30 the committees coun-

cation was given what the nature of
these views were. The Attorney Cen
eral was appealed to on an allegation
by the Denver stockholders committee
that a technicality in law existed which
might prevent the sale of the road in
Denver on October 20 to satisfy a
Judgment of s36,OO0,00O in favor of the
Western Pacific. The technicality has

Stocks Tend Lower
I'm Narrow Market;
Money, Again at 1919
lsnmincnce of Many New Is
sues Imparts Unsteadiness
TO Bonds: Public Interest
in Stocks at a Low Ebb

The persistence Of high call money
rates again kept the stock market al
most exclusively within the domna-
ton Of professional traders. In the
face Of an uncertain financial ard bust
ness outlook, thc so-called outside
public had little incentive for under
taking speculative ventures, with the
cost of funds in the money market
vacillating between 9 and 10 per cent
The withdrawal Of more than S150,OO0,-
600 recently by the Treasury from the
banks of New York accounts for the
immediate stringency, which is looked
upon by bankers as merely a passing
incident in the adjustment of the credit
market.
Nevertheless, on days of tight money
the conditions that make for an illu-
minating market are lacking, and dull
ness is to be expected The immediate
scarcity of funds does not alter the
long range credit outlook. After the
seasonal demands have been provided
for, many observers anticipate an cas-
ing of money after the first Of the year
The detatlon of prices eventually will
compress the volume Of funds needed
to finance industry. But, if the Federal
Reserve Board and tho banks continue
in their purpose to have the member
banks reduce their borrowings at the
regional banks when liquidation in in
duStry makes this possible, the change
will not necessarily free great Quanti
ties of credit for speculative purposes.
On the other hand, it will relieve the
fundamental strain and will at least
create better atmosphere.
In the narrow boundaries within
which securities fuctuated yesterday,
there was much irregularity, with a
downward trend Most of the active
securities closed at least fractionally
lower. and the steel securities, led by
Steel common, which had been firm
for several days, moved downward.
The selling came partly because the
favorable news regarding the earnings
of the Steel Corporation, which had
been discounted. was out and also as q
result OF further reports Of recession
in the industry. The trade Journals
revealed fresh details of the passing
away Of a market in which the de-
mand had consistently outrun the sup
ply. Those traders too, who were gull
ible enough to believe that the corpo
ration was about to declare a large
extra dividend at this time also con-
tributed to the offerings. There was
little evidence Of Importance outside
liquidation. The commission houses
we're conspicuously inactive, and what
they did for their customers, it was
said, was largely on the buying side.
Reports indicating that the British
coal strike would soon be over were
practically ignored bs the market.
There was some irregularity in the
bond market also, probably another
expression of the effects o. the
temporary money situation and partic
ularly of the imminencc OF several
hundreds of million dollars of new is
sues

professional traders proceeded to add
to the discontinue of .he bulls BY
putting out short sales. and ut the

orders taken earlier in the year were
delivered during that period as re-

Less Calling of Loans

Although the call money rate got up
to 10 per cent again yesterday repre-
sentatives Of the big wire houses
stated that there was less calling of
loans than on preceding days of the
week. The tendency, it was said, IN
these quarters was easier, with the
outlook that rates may work lower by
the close of the week. The govern
ment has about gone the limit in with
drawing its balances in the New York
banks, and it is regarded as only a
question of time when they viii lind
their way back One Of the chief rea-
sons for this weeks stringency has
been because these funds have not
been redeposited sooner

New Offerings TO-DAY

A half-dozen or more new issues of
securities are being offered by bankers
to-day. The rush TO market these Is
sues Is one Of the most interesting
features Of the financial market at the
moment. The idea of the banker. OF
course, is TO get his bonds out and
marketed before the present extraordi-
nary demand for investment securities
subsidies. The fact that upwards Of
$500, 100000 in new issues is overhang-
ing the market probably accounts in
part for the deluge of offerings to-day

The Dollar i'm Foreign Exchange

Despite the favOrable news from
London relative to the progress made
in settling the coal miners strike, the
foreign exchanges were somewhat
heavy yesterday. Sterling displayed
early frmness and made further re
covery, but did not hold its gain.
Francs we're again weak, checks clos
ing at 6.31 cents. Around the mar
ket there we're reports that the sag
ging tendency in francs was due to the
fact that the French government is no
longer supporting the market. Inter
national bankers pointed out however,
that this is the time of year when
normally the exchanges move against
Europe and in our favor, owing to the
heavy export movement Of American
goods.
