NEW YORK, July 15.—To-day’s short market was so narrow and so nearly stagnant that movements of prices were of little significance. re was a perceptible tone of firmness, how- ever, which was emphasized after the appear- ances of the bank statement by the hasty cov- ering of some small bear contracts in the grangers which had been put out just previous 1o the appearance of the statement. Probably the greater part of the day's business was given over to the closing out of short contracts by the bears. This contingent has been partic- ularly active in Brooklyn Transit during the past week on the persistent talk of a pending ftrike. Their buying to cover to-day made that stock the most active on the list and moved it up two points from the opening decline. Sugar ‘as largely bought and rose at one time 1% ver last night. People’s Gas recovered sharp- v from vesterday's prices. Oregon Navigation rred advanced 1% on the discharge of the Voting trust and the implied guarantee of pre- ferred dividends to the amount of 10 per cent warmer with dens fresh y winds. ALEX# NEW YORK Iy 1 in yearly installments. Cotton ofl rose over a point. Manhattan and the Southwestern rail- roads were also inclined to strength. The bank etatement was up to expectations in the item of loan contractions, and the consequent redu: tion in deposit liabilities. It was unexpectedly favorable the showing of a gain in cash ent of 32,500,000 to the Sub- Treasury on customs payments during the week. The local money market worked still lower to- day, but demand sterling advanced a small fraction and London discounts were also hard- er. Bterling exchange at Continental also rose sharply tending to the note of alarm sounded by the weekly English financlal publi- catlons over the Immediate future of the Lon- don money market. The week in Wall street has offered evidences that an eager speculative contingent is watch- ing for an opportunity to embark on the long eide of the market. There is evidence also that a large portion of the contingent was not possessed of abundant funds, and the continued tightness of the money market and the succees- ful machinations of the bears have checked the bullish enthusiasm, wiped out margins and precipitated considerable speculative liquida- tion. A number of individual stocks, however, have shown aggressive strength on large buy. ing and have sustained the general list. The activity of the market for call loans on the Etock Exchange, even at the high rates, also indicates confidénce in some quarters in the eariy clearing of the situation. The extended period of the hardness of money after the July period upset the calculations of many ob- and last Saturday's bank statement, & surplus reserves down to near $5,00 d lower than since the nanic of 1593, caused something like alarm. There were large lers to sell at the opening on Monday, as it was certain that many loans would be’ called to reduce deposit accounts of the banks that were below their legal reserve limit. The acute phases of the Transvaal situation interfered with values abroad and emphasized the money stringency in all foreign centers, with the re- sult that London offered large amounts of etock for sale in New York. Finally there was acute weakness in New York traction stocks considering the pa on fears of a etrike and In People’s Gas on re- | yorted plans for an cpposition plant. The com: bined effort was a violent break in prices through most of the list and an active selling movement. The almcst complete recovery on the following day, on only two-thirds the vol- ume of Monday's business, demonstrated the precipitate selliug had been well absorbed and the amount of stock for sale greatly dimin- ished. The technical poition of the market was thus much strengthened by the shaking out of weak hold It came to be better under- etood that Saturday’s bank statement, being based on averages of the totals for each day the preced , did not fairly reflect the actual condit anks on the date when it was made same time it became known that some very large loans made on ac- count of the organization of the tube industry and to the City government pend- ing its sale 1ds had been liquidated, and_that reed on July 1 for divis coming back into de- York banks. But the account gave way to re- newed uneasiness when it was percelved that the rate for demand sterling was hardening as the local rate for money became easler. It was feared that the ec the London moner market would cause a fur- ther drain of goid New York and keep the local rate high for a considerabls time to come. The downward tendency of long sterl- ing under offerings of futures against merchan- dise shipments partiy answered the fears on 1is score. The bond market was moderately active and rather irregulan, Southwestern Raflway Jssues oving up in sympathy wi T R y with the strength of United States 2s and old 4s registere declined % in the bid pricc .

NEW YORK, July 15.—The Financler says: There was a material improvement In the con- dition of the associated banks of New York last week, the reserve above legal requirements showing a gain of 35,636,275, which brings the total surplus cash to $10,698,750. This was the result of a rather drastic liquidation in loans, that ftem having decreased no less than $i7,- | 150,700. A coincident contraction of $15,273,100 in de- | posits reduced reserved requirements by $3,- | 515,000, and this, added to the gain of $1,¥18,000 in specle, made the expansion in surplus as | stated. The statement is much more favorable | than preliminary estimates had forecast. The | known movements of money indicated that the | banks had lost more money than they had | gained, the treasury absorptions belng respon- sible for this opinion. But it is possible that the previous statements as set forth last week in this review very much underrated the real position of the Clearing-house institutions. In the same manner the gains from the interior for the current week were probably larger than expected. 1In any event the reserve hbas been | materially strengthened, also it is still much | below the average. Whether the statements for | the next week or two will continue to show { cash gains cannot be asserted positively, but it is known that a portion of the July divi- dend disburgements, especially those by the Government, have not yet been redeposited in banks. The treasury, owing to customs col- lections, has been a ‘gainer -¢ late from the The principal point of interest centers | banks. | in the erop movement demands, the season for which {s rapidly approaching. If reports from interior are correct, and the bank ex- | hibits now being published seem to show that they are, it is difficult to see where New York can lose much money in that direction during the early fal are extremely high and a drain on New York heavy enough to advance interest rates would inevitably attract large sums of money to this { center.

NEW YORK, July 15.—The Commerclal Ad- vertiser's London financlal cablegram says: The markets here were lifeless and nervous to-day on. the Transvaal war preparations, which are proceeding actively.

PORTLAND, July 15.--Spring grown grain and re-seeded flelds of wheat on light lands in a number of localities in the Northwest may be termed in a critical condition as a result of the hot weather of the past week. The intensely hot weather has caught the grain at a stage where it was at the worst disadvantage. At nearly all points south of Snake Rive fall grain and spring grain, planted early on heavy #oll, is not injured by the heat, but’ grain less fortunately situated has been burning. Re- ports are in a measure conflicting, but reports 30,000 sheep, 1500. hours show that the erop in many localities has been considerably damaged.
