her-ulnrly for years our exports liavo started
\n \ February and as regularly tbo stoeit mar
ket has boon chilled by It. Ilr.lf n million of
gold was cngnccd by toother half million
Saturday. Immediately tboro was a sagRlng
of prices. Tlio bull order of the traders was
chccUcd. They sold stocks for botli accounts ,
nnil Saturday , after tbo banK statement ap
peared showing an Increase of $10,000,000
In tbo loans ( duo to trade movements
nna customary In Kobruary ) and n decrease
In the surplus reserve of $2,000,000 , there
was moro selling of stocks and the market
closed rather \vcalt.
It m y weaken moro on Monday or tbo
next day , but tdo big houses ore not likely to
nllow a serious break to occur. They can
liandlo this mnrkot because It Is still narrow
nnd professional. The coal deal. which made
transaction * of over 1,000,000 shares a day ,
was strictly professional.
Not Siiln to lie On.
The general public had llttlo part In It , and
\vhllu ttioro Is nothing In sight to cause sell-
in any considerable volume by the public , the
great bull houses can take care of things
with but little trouble. There nro no blocks
of stock hanging over the market BO largo us
" , n bo threatening.
To carry out the purposes of the coal com
blnatlon majority of Lnchnwnnn < v stock
must bo held permanently. To the same end
amajoiltvof Reading must bo held. ThU
must liavo been calculated when the deal was
orlglnnlly planned. It Is safe to calculate
that the stock Is p lid for and laid away in
the ationi ; boxes of the great capitalists.
The Heating minority of thn stock is
small compared with the forces
nvailablo for handling it. But it
docs not follow because the market c.m beheld
held in easy control that the big capitalists
and leading- operators nro going to stall
another bull movement rl < ht away. On tbo
contrary , they may think this is a good tlmo
to lot things dtlft back a little ; for the last
part of February and the month of March Is
usually a bad tlmo to bull stocks. It is the
ctormlcst season of the year , when the
danger from storms , Hoods , violent change *
of toinper.ituro and widespread injury Is the
greatest.
Oiitt Cent In n Hundred.
Then , too , thoio U the gold exports. The
difference in th"1 price of a dollar bill which
makes the dilToiencc between the Importing
goods mid exporting gold , B 1 pur cent. Onu
cent on a" dollar Is enough under normal con
ditions. That is to say if a man imvin ?
a debt to pay In London llndb
that to buy a bill of oxclinnga
on that plnco will cest him $1.01
ho can moro prnlUably send gold and does so.
If , on the contrary , the man In London llnds
that n bill on Now York is 101 cents , lie sends
gold instead. When a bill on London costs
4SU cants per 1 gold can bo sent moro profit
ably , and in ttio sprine of the year the do-
mnnds of the tr.ulo generally dosoud it thero.
In fact gold can bo and is sent out before -
fore thoIb'J mark is i cached , as
is the case now. In the fall
the ca'O being roveisod , the London man
paying his Now York debts sends goldrathor
than buv his Now Yoik bills at ISO cents ,
but the New York man who mov liavo to re
mit to London at that tlmo can buy his bills
nt 134. cents. When , therefore , exchange Is
489 cents wo oxpoit , nnil when at IS I cents
wo import.
"Itiilunco of Trade" Fiction * .
But oven this 1 percent may bo shaded , so
fine have the dealers in exchange bruught
their calculations. At the market rate of ex
change now , it does not appear tlioro is any
prollt in sending out gold , nut It nearly al
ways hnnpens that the first transactions are
"special,1 and it will bo remembered how a
prominent treasury ofllclal lust spring sot out
to sternly discountenance "special" transac
tions ns bclntr obnoxious to public morality. ,
But , now , where is our "balance of trade ( '
Where h the 81C > V > 00UOO that Europe owes
us at , this moment , according to the statistics ?
Ono Philadelphia paper recently suggested
that wo demand thomonoy bo returned forth
with , ns we need no foreign entanglements.
Sonio ono facetiously addud that the
new navy might bo employed to make
the demand. Anyway hero wo are , with a
statistical balance of $155,500,000 of gold
owing us. Wo are selling our foreign bal
ances in gold Just tbo same as before , and
Just as if these statistics did not show tbo
foreigners that they ought to bo sending
millions of gold to us instead of our sending
tome to them.
Whllo the market is getting to Its custo
mary spring gold chill , It is also a llttlo dis
turbed by the silver men , nnd perhaps thnro
may bo some disposition to wait and see Just
uow far those people are to bo allowed to go.
This Is another reason why the market as n
whole may bo dull and possibly lower oxcupt
for specialties.
Chicago flas Kiting.
Some stocks have been exceptionally
strong the last week. Woswrn Union has.
and it is interred that at next month's mootIng -
Ing the dividend will bo increased. Chicago
Gas has been largely bought by Chicago
houses. It is officially announced that a
syndicate of filemU of the company have
purchased the Economic concern , and also
the natural gas proportion In Indiana and
Chicago will liavo fuel gas sup
plied at low cost wbon pro
jected plans nro perfected. It is an
instructive lesson in speculation that the
pcoplo who aio such persistent boars on Chicago
cage Gas stoclc when in the tittles have
lately boon the lurgnst buyers of lint twenty-
flvo to thirty points' higher , Thoio wore
men hero wno were bollovers in the property
nnd largo holders of its shares , but tliov
could do noiblnc singly against the Chicago
boar clique. Therefore they tnado a llttlo
combination nnd put their Interests unre
servedly into the hands of Mr. Kcono. As
BOOH ns that was douo the
Chlcugo clique were already boaton.
All the llttlo market tricks that they could
play wore nofljiug against the skill of a man
that Wall street acknowledges hns uovor had
bis superior in handling properties on the
stock oxchungo. His skill is really u sort of
Intuitive genius. Ho never was beaten ex
cept when ho boat himself , and that was
when ho utterly overworked himself , Ho
took clmrgo of Chicago Uui stock and the
prollU of the oporatlon aggregate about $ . '
250,000 , A largo port of this was con
tributed by the Chicago boars , who now
BOO the property they condemned
In n dineront light. Nor did
our Mr. Keene niuko a moro
brilliant campaign than when ho took that
discredited stock in the rt files and carried it
up easily and safely to a figure more ncarlv
corresponding to the dividends it payi.
Itlclimniul Teimlnnl Next.
The next big thing to bo dona In the mar-
lot is the floating of tbo Richmond Terminal
securities , and tbo chances are that It will bo
successfully dono. It is In tbo main a re
funding operation , and If holders of the ox-
UtliiK securities sco such a plan is good tboy
may accept It for want of a Hotter one , if for
no other reason ,
Erie securities may bo good for a rlsew hon
the market is in the right shape. The earn
ings of the property are Increasing with a
