Wall Street's Crucial Weeks. It is conceded by Wall street lead- ers that the next .hree weeks will be crucial tests of the market. The crop money movement, with its accompa- niments of high call r.tes and a prob- able financtul stringency, will test the stability of the present price levels. If they hold nearly where they are experts will be surprised, for predic- tions of lower levels in many of the issues are freely made. These are based mainly upon the conditions Surrounding the monetary eituation— conditions which must continue to exist with unfavorable additions for three weeks at least. Saturday's bank statement, showing a surplus reserve of only $4,097,050, brings it to a dan- gerously low point. It compares un- favorably with last year at the same period, when the reserve was $6,915,- 875, and with a surplus reserve of $26,066,260 two years ago. ‘The annual meeting of the American Refining and Smelting Company will be held Wednesday. At this meeting meas- ures will be taken to fight the sults brought by the Colorado State Adminis- tration to have the company declared a trust. Copper War Goes On, All hopes of an early settlement of the copper war which for years has waged between the $100,000,000 Amal- gamated Copper Company and the in- dependent companies led by the Heinzés are shattered. F. Augnstus Heinze now heads a big syndicate which has virtually cornered all the rich copper deposits of Alaska. Rail- roads to the lands of the anti-Trust deposits are rapidly being construct- ed, and very soon President Henry H. Rogers and Director William Rockefeller, of the Trust, will have additional competition to face. The Heinze syndicate holds all the rich claims of Alaska and Prince of Wales Island and will soon be able to put the ore on the market. The world- wide Copper Trust—which has been the Rockefeller plan—must languish again. . 68 8 Predictions of a general resumption of anthracite mining within ten days were confidently made by many brok- ers to-day.

Recent movements in the railroad and speculative world have Glsclosed house orders) to the public the close relations ex- ieting between George Gould and John D. Rockefeller and his brother William. The Gould-Rockefeller al- Nance does not startle the Wall street public, because it has been for months cognizant of the deals between the principals. It {6 assumed “now, however, fhat the bond between their big speculative operations is closer than a community of interest feeling and means in the very near future a merger of their principal properties, Their raflroad operations in the West have dovetailed so ac- curately that there is no room for douht they were working all the time upon an agreed plan. The traffic re- lation between Northern Pacific and St. Paul is a striking case in point. Leading bankers express the bellof that unless there is a curtailment of activity in the stock market or heavy Importations of gold from Europe the Interior demand upon New York for money will be too heavy to meet with- out embarrassment. New York's foreign obligations are already heavy, they point out, and if Europe should call $150,000,000 of its loans, prices here would tumble. Trust Gobbles Beet Sugar. The American Sugar Refining Com- pany—the Sugar Trust—is now the accredited owner of over one-third of the beet sugar plants of the United States, and henceforth may virtually dictate whdt shall be the’ output of beet sugar in this country. Despite occasional denials of the Havemeyers, authoritative statements are made showing that the Sugar Trust need no longer fear its ambitious rival from the West. Before Congresgcon- venes in December the two heretotore business rivals will have settled their differences—by the absorption pro- cess—and. {it will not much matter what Congress may say it means to do about it, as it seldom does any- thing more drastic than to disturb the esa atmosphere, * THE QUOTATIONS, Magy. iow, 25.500, Amalgamated Copper 10% 6° » 70% 1,700 Amer: ieyete..: "m2 3 4.10 Amet.

To-day ite report was widely spread and well aui-} thenticated in Wall street that the operators who have hitherto refused to either give or take were preparing to offer to their. men a general increase of 10 per cent. The presidents of the coal roads who : brought into line to make this concession, are: Baer, ing; Fowler, of the Ontario and Western; Truesdale, of the Dela- ware, Lackawanna and Western, and Underwood, of the Erie. MINERS’ UNION TO BE IGNORED. ‘Inis increasa\will be offered to the miners as individuals, not as mem- bers of the union, and the union as an organization will be wholly ig- uored. To-morrow President Baer will come over from Philadelphia to meet he other Presidents here and possibly for another conference with J. P. Morgan. At to-morrow’s meeting it 1s believed the new plan which the operators are said to have agreed upon will be put to a practical test. Influential interests identified with the operators say that this is the programme and that it is expected to result in the speedy ending of the strike. PRESIDENTS KEEP CLOSED MOUTHS. Presidents of the coal roads would not discuss to-day the story for pub- Neation. They sald that there was nothing new to add to their previous statements. President Thomas P.
