REVIEW OF WEEK
Exchange Decentralization

Pronounced weakness In securi-
ties and foreign exchange easily has
been the feature Of the past week.

market Is not dificult to explain. 1t
discounts the manifest approach Of
another crisis IN the German repa-
rstions dificulty. other factors.
such as speculation and autumn pur-
chasing Of American commodities.
uDdoubtedly have been contributing
fsctors. but these are. after all,
merely accessory influences. At
tempts have been made to interpret
the movement In terms Of the tariff.
but the latter. while bad. has long
been assured and can hardly be ex-
erting a strong influence at so early
a date. Nor can the administration
4. stand on the question of inter-allied
debts, which also has adverse eco
nornic complications. be credited
with being q market factor as yet.
In Q similar manner the somewhat
. fantastic theory which has emanated
from French sourcets to the effect
that the francs weakness Is due to
British selling to secure dollars to
pay interest charges owing to this
country. does not square with the
British habit of accumulatin? funds
far In advance Of needs: nor does it
do credit to British sagacity in sup
posing that such funds would have
been accumulated in francs and lire.
Faces Marks Decline.
On the other hand. the decline in
the currencies of France. Belgium.
and italy. the chief creditors of Ger
many. has been quite in line with
the renewed weakness in the Ger
man mark and the rumors Of an off,
cial declaration of German bank
ruptcy. Meanwhile the pound ster-
ling Of England. which is only incl
dentally interested in German pay
ments. has remained steady. Fur
the-more. the recent correlation be-
tween the movement of the conti-
mental allies and that of the mark

bankers committee reported it's

international loan to Germany.
Meanwhile cables from London state
that the past week has seen some
thing approaching a French flight

ters of the fact that II the matter

Elimination OF predicted devei-

Incidents including those recorded
In the past week has been followed
by the creation Of many new incen-
tives for market operations, and in
yesterdays trading bullish activi-
ties were inspired by reports about
favorable changes being close at
hand in many corporations that
may be effective IN causing specu-
lative interest. Accumulation of

that the corporation will on Mon

stantially to Its output Predic-
tions were also made of changes
coming in the transportation field,

cause increased activity in a num-
Der of the railroad stocks that
have at intervals demanded special
attention. but disappointment was
expected In one group because OF a
failure OF substantial response to
the increase in the Pennsylvania divi-
dend to Per cent per annum on
Wednesday. An important influence
was expected TO the exerted by the
short account understood TO have
beeh created as a result Of the heavy
selling in many stocks while the de-
clines were in progress during the
week.
Causes for setbacka.
Those who are active in many OF
the market operations Of the past
week attributed the severe losses and
the heavy selling in the first four
days Of the week to various causes
According to some Of these interests
the fact that many Developments
which were incentive for bullish ac-
uvities were put into the class Of
closed ancidents including the an
nouncement of the Mexican Petro-
leum plan Of readjustment OF relations
with the Pan American Company. the
practical completion of the program
for rearranging capitalization OF
Standard OIL corporations through
the declaration OF stock dividends.
and the reduction of par values OF
many Of the Standard OIL stocks

influence Of the unsettled market for

coincident with the development OF

It is about a smaii darkey who had eaten about nalI an eighty pound watermelon. He was staggering down the street, and tne strain of his cargo was giving his small abdomen an awful lot of trouble. Presently he began to cry. A white man asked him what was the matter. After finding out how much watermelon the shaver had aboard. he said: "Too much watermelon"
