orders to cr sn SYNDICATE CETS MORE TIME Secretary Shaw Makes Allow- ance for Purchases of Paper Made in London and at Other Distant Points. MONEY MARKET IMPROVES. ‘The Government Bond Svndicate—the (National City Bank, Harvey Fisk & Bon, Vermilye & Co., and Fisk & Robin- son—made a new contract with the ‘United States Treasury officials to-day. Under the agreement the syndicate wil! be allowed to turn tn the bonds us fast as they got them In after to-day, at the figures named in the original sontrect. A member of the bond syndicate In explanation sald: “We have turned in nearly all of the original amount of bonds, which were to aggregate $15,000,000 par value. or Nearly $21,000,000 at the price paid oy Secretary Shaw, but some of the bonds | ‘were purchased by us at widely separ- ated points and they cennot all reach here for several days. May Release $30,000,000. “Kor instance. one bock we purchased qwas started from San Francisco Satur- @ay for New York. “Another consignment we bought by cable in London is on the ocean, and we have others coming from interior points, We were disappointed in one batch of bonds aggregating $1,000,000, which was promised, but falled to ma- jalize, “Another batch of nearly the @mount was secured, however, so we will be able in a few days’ time to turn in practically the entire amount ‘we contracted to sell the Government. “That is all that the time extension means, The entire amount of $21,000,000, market value of the bonds, will be re- leased within a few days. This, with the bonds purchased by Secretary Shaw from the public, will make at least $25,000,900, or $30,000,000 put in circulation through the purchase Big Payment» Soon. The success of the bond syndicate plan for relieving the money market was shown in the rates for call money to-day. The first quoted price was 7 er ccat, and the second 6, with little jemand even at that figure. ‘The outlook for money has been great- ly improved by the bond purchases, but ‘all street bankers generally hold’ that tthe $21,000,000, or $25,000,000 thus restored to circulatioa will not be more than sufficient to finance the syndicate oper- ations how under way and to meet the demand from the West and South for erop money. Next Friday the first payment of $2,- 00,000 on the, B. and O. stock increas must be paid, and Nov. 1 the second outlay: of $27,000,000 on the Pennsylvania Raliroad stock increase falls due. ——<$<—<——___- Canada Floating a Food Trust.

Conservatives in the Market; Frowned on Furious Dealings, and Mild Turn Followed with: Much Profit Taking. THE COALERS WERE SOLD. Satisfactory developments in the an- thracite coal strike and the disappear- ance of high money rates as a market menace led to a strong opening on the Stock Exchange to-day, For the first hour the trading was furiously active at advancing prices and the volume of sales was very large, with apparently a determined effort by pool leaders to boom their specialties. After the first Rour, however, the mar- ket eased up and prices receded some- what. The conservative traders admit- ted that the pace was too fast. It was suggested to many holders of margined accounts that the present was Yake profits and end high interest charges. Following Gat Under the lquidation, prices receded fractionally In most instances: and a perceptible halt was given to wild and apparently Il+timed speculation. A report that the District Presidents | ot the Mine Workers’ Union might not be able to reach a conclusion on the the order calling the strike off until to- B morrow, helped to check the rapid up- rush of prices. In the forenoon there was a great rush of buythg crders from the West, notably from Chicago. What the Chicago contingent wanted was not to buy any particular stock, but to be sure to get a share in all the issues In which John W. Gates is in- terested. ‘The big speculator made Norfolk and Western the market leader to-day both in point of activity and in the advance in. prices. Baltimore and Ohio, Mtssourl Pacific, Union Pacific and Pennsylvania were under pressure most of the day. The selling in each was ‘heavy on profit taking. The coal roads were sold largely on every occasion, the object apparently velng to take profits whenever the op- portunity offered. Erie, Canadian Pacific, Chesapehke and Ohio, Chicago, Great’ Western and Illinois Central, Were stronger than Baturday’s clot. Confidence in the bettered conditions of the money market made buyers more asamp even at the advance in prices. The industrial list was strong and t Speculation In most of the. Issues. de- idedly active. ‘The United States Steel stocks were the strongest | features among the industrials. London sold about 3,000 shares, scat tering the wrders among the general ist, and bollght nothing. The pessism istsirealnes panticular effect here, The money market was so much easier to-day that New York correspondents of country lenders in some cases have noll- fied thelr clients that they cannot place four months’ money at better than 6 percent. |The tenders had endeavored to seoure a premium. An the foreign exchange market the chief feature was the stiffening in rates. This would prelude gold Imports except at a loss for some time. Call money rates, which opened at 7 r cent., dropped to 6 per cent., then to , and finally to-4 per cent, PELHAM FIGHTS TROLLEY COMPANY Road Planned to Run Through , Woods, and Residents Say They Will Not Benefit.

FEAR MORGAN WiLL SOON OWN ENGLAND London Editors Regard with Ap prehension the Americanizing of the British Electric Roads.| LONDON, Oct. %.—"I8 J. Plerpont Morgan going to own England?" Is the question asked by the London Dally this morning tn an article giving the details of a great scheme which, It {8 alleged, the Morgan exchequer Is backing in the formation of a gigantic trust called the British Electric Trac- tion Company. London has been awakened to this aspect of commercial affairs since cer- tain articles have appeared In the Times under the name of ‘Municipal Social- For Sale. $100. 00 FOR $39.

Bonds May Bring $40,000,00 Treasury officials say that the bonds offered under the present plan of Secretary Shaw, which lapses to- night, should reach at Icast $40,000,- 000 for the entire country.

A combination of three or four of the largest foreign exchange houses is said to have been formed for the purpose of importing $25,000,000 in gold from Europe.
