The stock had been compara- uvely steady about 240 since its jump -of 20 points early In the week, but 1t 100k a violent fall to-day of over 10 points fiom the opeving and jumped up and down on_the recovery like boiling waterin a glass tube. The varlations in price on the downgrade were as high as 3 poin s between consecutive sales and_jumped over several polnts at & time 16 & most erratic and unstable manner: The stock closed at 235, & net dectine of 6. Its eccentric movement served to unsettie the -whols market and discoursged tading generally. The market sagged somewhat. There was an undertone of Leaviness in the speculation all day; Whatever strength was apparent being in spots, though mot aiways with special canses to account for it. The indications supplied by the bank statement that ates for money would rise further in the future served as a check on speculation and helped the decline in the final hour. Manhattan suffered & sharp decline of 234 on the authurita- tive denial of any projectd iransfer to surface Tallway Interests and of any projected chance in motive power. The coalers reacted somewhat from yesterday’s advance. Delaware and Hudson rose 134, but iost practically all the gain.

The close showea prices generally beiow last night’s close. The confidence of the bears that the long-delayed reaction was due has been auzmented from time 10 time this week ani a short interest has shown jiself in somewhat aggressive moods several - times. - The bears Were no: much encouraged by thelr effurts Monday and on Tuesday they were routed 8% & resuit 0f the sburp fall in exchanze and the predicilon that & gold impor: movement Wwond immediateiy set in. For the resi of the week the market was exiremely irregular and cherp advances occurred in different siocks ihrough the list. while other l@iding 8i0CKS re- maived at an unchanged level. There was heavy Lquidation in Pit sburg and the steadiness witn whbich the offerings to realiz: were wbsurbed was a Suriking testunony to the continued breadth snd strengtia of the support. ome of Lhe most remarkable advances have been well retained, and the ievel of the market is decidedly higher ihan a week ago. The high prices of mauy stocks are based on expectatious of increased dividends. argament that prices have wdvanced to & bigher level, however, than is warranted. The argument is made, on the otber hand. that the rate of recurn on investment hes resched a permanently lower basis. The long comiinded siagnation in thé money market has tended to the same conviction To-dsy’s bauk statement. however, gives evidence of the rapid absorption of idle mouey by the grow- ing needs of commierce and indusiry It is evident, aleo, from the action of the ex hange market that the expandlig balance of trade in Zavor of this couniry stands as & safe- guard agalnst any stringency in our market. Net Changes for the week in (he mrjority of leaging siocks are small, but 8 jew siocks show large gatns. The husiness in bonds has been heavy, but ad- vances were not 0 marked as during recent periods.

THE FINANCIAL SITUATION. NEW YORK, N. Y., Sept. 18.—The Financler savs: That present advance in rates for money Is well justified Is shown in the statement of the as- sociated bavks of New York Ciiy for the week ending September 18 There is nothing to indi cate a near cessation of the demand for furds at interior points. The interior banks are drawing down their deposits in New York very rapidly. If the statement foreshadows anything it is that loaning rates will be adva ced (0 a higher figu than that now prevaling, but this contingenc: will on y hasten the tnie of goid 1mports. with consequent dec.ine in quotations. That there will | be any stringency 1s improbavie. The continued expansion in the stock market confirms this view For the first time in their history, perbaps. the banks now hold over 50 per cent of their cash in gold.
