f ICWB < . Co , vsrlt < .H
Iiurlng the Kant vvcek Wall street tins
shown some abatement In speculative opera
tions Such a high state of exeltement as
has prevailed for nearly four months past ,
almost without Intermission , of tlio tension
of exceptional ! ! high prices , cannot be
prolonged iii'lelinllt ly It must encounter
coitions , if not sharp breaks nnd , at the
I rtmiit moment , affairs eccm to bo dtlftlng
towards a breathlnu spoil
The capitalization of ncu Industrial organ-
i/aMoiiH slncu January 1 has undoubtedly
been quite large' , nnd the distribution of
Kuril a mass of securities icqulrcs some time ,
and It U not surprising If thcio bo some
postponement of further creations until this
proceed of distribution has made sonic con
siderable progress. It IB not to be supposed ,
however , that the e-ntire gross amount of
theselesiica Is placed directly on the marKet -
Kot A large portion is taken by the stock
holders in the concerns going Into the com
bination ? , in exchange for their properties ;
and that stuck Is llkuly to bo held mnlnly an
a more or less permanent Investment by its
iiciplcnts , and thcieforu to that extent , at
ha.st can liavo no Important effect upon the
bc'curlfy market Another considerable portion
tion of the Issues will be held in the treas
ury of the now organizations to provide a
reserve resource The stock to be placed on
the market , In probably most Instances , rop-
lesunts pilnclpally the requlre-ments of the
e imblnatlons for working capital , and , judg
ing from appearances , those leqtilicmcnts
uro wisely being provided for upon a liberal
snilc BO ns to provide the concerns with a
largo rcndj money resource and make them
the less dependent upon borrowing facilities.
From thrso fuels It will ho aeon that the
probability of the market being dangerously
flooded with the Issues of the new combines
mav easily have been overestimated through
utility Infcicnccs from the largeness of the
aggregate of the now creations. People arc
apt to draw disproportionate conclusions
from great totals , and It may therefore bo
piudcnt to arrest the pace at which this
movement has been running for the last four
months That course would mltlgato the
halt which his been apparent In sonio quar
ters , It would also Invest the futuio of the
mono } raaikct with more ntaurance ; and
any fuithcr creations of thcso Issues would
imd their path caslei , while the consolida
tion movement would become less an cle
ment of disturbance than it has been.
I take it that the present abatement of
ticthlty In the Industrial and traction stocks
IK duo to those engaged In these now In
terests having concluded that the policy of
moderate movement rather than of hasty
"rushing" is most conducive to the cultiva
tion of confidence In this Important reor
ganization of Industrial capital. The move
ment has como In obedience to a series of
natural causes ; and , If It is protected against
the taint of overcapitalization , these Issues
must havb their place and standing In the
Block market , the same as they have in
1'Omlon and continental exchanges But
violent movements , no matter how Intrinsic
ally legitimate , create distrust and picjudlce
when they are pushed with an energy nnd
speed for which the public is unprepared
Jn the abbcnco of ncuto excitement In the
Industrials , honicnvhat moio attention has
been given to the railroad list nnd an Im
proved feeling has piovnllcd In tint branch
of operations llut , while the market has
been fnlily well sustained , it has not been
particularly animated. The reports of dam-
ngo to the wheat crop have- given coinage to
the bear side and lessened the ardor of their
opponents. Th-ro Is a disposition on the
part of the aggressive operators to await
definite information as to the winter wheat.
At pi client the reports regarding It nro more
or k'ss conflicting. There Is no question ,
however , that It will provo bad enough ; btlll
it must bo considered that there will bo a
very largo amount of wheat carried over
from the last crop nnd the Increase of acro-
ng3 will give an ample supply foi export ,
1 omo consumption and seeding. Besides
Micro remains htlll the open question as to
spring wheat. The spring crop generally ex-
panda as the winter contracts and that of
last jear reached 295,000,000 , bushels , or
100,000,000 bushels moio than the output of.
1SU7 ,
The money market has settled Into a con-
iMtlrn of gicater ease , which appears likely
t > continue until the fall months. The
tic'asury has so arranged its withdrawals
f om the dejxisltory banks In connection
with the payment to Spain ns to cause the
i Inlnium cf disturbance The withdrawal
tf $1,000.000 n week IB a comparatively light
i ffnlr , when It is consldcied that the govern-
ineiit'a excess of payments over receipts will
c IUBO the rotuin of port of the money to the
b mUs The money markets of the interior
uiu generally easy and stiff : atcj here would
I tint to brlijg currency this way nil the
II oio lapldly.
Foielgu exchange Is sustained by the in-
cieabo in the imports , together with the
Inltucnco of the remittance of $20,000,000 to
Siialit Compared with March , IStS , the lin-
I UK of last month show an Increase ot
J 1 1,231,017. On the export aide , there Is a
dieicasa of $8,156,527 from last ye-ar nnd an
ImrcMbo of $17,181,722 compared with 1897.
Tlio March excels of exports over Imports
Ih $31,070,769 , compared with $51,058.313 In

NR\V YORK , April 2J The Financier
sajB The Now York bunks added $3,681,700
to their rash holdings Insl week , making n
gain of about $6,500,000 since April S
AVlthln the same period reserve requirements ,
owing to the shrlnkngo of $10,565,700 in do-
poMts , ilecrcaeud about $2 650,000 BO that the
excess reserve has expanded $15,000,000 in
the comparatlvelj short space mentioned.
TlilB change , which , ot course , tends to
nn easier condition of the money market ,
! ms been brought about In p u through the
resumption of the Interior movement In
this dliectlon mid b > the liquidation in loans
which lins been n characteristic feature of
the statement for several weeKs past. The
Innn Item discloses the fact that since the
opening of April a contraction of between
nineteen and twenty millions of dollars has
taken pjnco Obviously , In the fncu of a
showing like this the outlook as regards
juoney rates becomes very much more Bottled
nnd ns the factor * which make for an ex
pansion of o.\ce'ss reserves are still promi
nent , the future holds nut the promise of
btlll easier conditions ,
The current Btntome'iit , however , when
studied In detail , presents some anomalous
features Thus , one Institution which has
fctrong foreign connections has decreased its
loans no leys than $9,000,000 and its deposits
and epeclu accounts nhovv corresponding
changes This may have occurred In the
course of business , but the sterling loans
in ado in tua | renter n fortnight since nnd
the Imminence of the settlement of the
Philippine IndemnUj may not have been
without Inilucnco.
Taking the statement in n broad sense , It
menus , If nnthing tl-iu the bunks nro
recuperating the losses sustained during the
crop movement early in the spring and also
eliice they have concluded thu opcratloiib In
cident to the financing of tailous large
deilft , and from thin tlmo on they will have
loanable funds In cxceso of the demand.
This mny tend to revive nagging speculation ,
or It may Inspire a resumption of trust
formation checked naveral vrccks since , but
th Intter Is Improbable owing both to ex-
haliRtlnn of eultable material and the in-
deposition to encourngo the trust habit As
for speculation , there are too many conflict
ing tenlures , from foreign money markets to
domestic crop and other causes to make n
prediction of much value.

CATTLC Not enough cattle were offered
on th- > market this * morning to really estab
lish prlcci in other words , there was about
the usual Saturdav's run and the usual Sat-
ui day's market Values wore not materially
changed and the. trade ns a whole wa- ) with
out Interest A half-dozen loads of corn-fd
steers were offered and told in about the
same notches as yesterday. The few scat
tering lots of cows and heifers ere picked
up at steady prlcas About the only Interest
of the day centered on a bunch of calves or
yearling stoclteis from Ontario , Canada.
They were fairish stuff , rather small bones ,
of all colors and of mixed Durham breed
apparently. They met with ready sale at $ o
Receipts of cittle this week ha.ve been
large as compared with previous weeks and
the big bulk of the arrivals made up of
corn-fed steers , offerings of cow stuff , stock
cattle , ate. , being very light Owing to the
largo run and the lower pi Ices quoted at
other markets , the tendency of prices at this
point the first half of the week was lower.
During the latter part of the week values
held their own , but did not recover any of
the Io < s to speak of. At the close of the
week it is safe to say that v alias on corn-
feyl steers are on an average 15c lower tlnn
at the close of last week. Choice , handy
Httlo cattle were in the best demand all the
we ° k , and accordingly the decline on that
kind was the least , the loss not amounting
to o\ei lOc on them. On the other hand ,
heavy cattle were not as free pelleis as the
light cattle , especially if thcv happened to
bo coarse. It is safe to sav that the heavy
cattle , even the best , are all of lf c lowei for
the week , and in extreme cases 20c lower
Cows and heifers were In light demand all
the week and thrt demand was good , so that
the market was active and strong every day.
The arrivals mot with rcadv sale every day
of the week. In spite of the decline on btrer ° .
Bulls wer ° also in very light receipt , and for
that reason the prices paid were a little
better than the law davs > of the previous
week. Stock cattle were In small supply
all the week and good demand Values vv < vo
steady to strong and everj thing received
sold high. Feeders sold at fully steady
prlct.fi
HOGS Values were reported fie lower at
all the 'culling market points this mnming
and , this market did not furnish any ex
ception to the general rule The fact that
the receipts were ex ( pedlngly large for the
last day of the week did not appear to cut
much of a figure , T the demand was good
and buyers all . < = i > emr < l to want a goodman
manhoes. . The trade was fairly active ,
thouch some buyers were a little bear'sh ,
whllo sellers were unwlllng to take off
The trade finally developed into a $1 70JT1 73
market , almost everything selling within a
range of DC. Yesterdaj one of the largest
droves bought In Kansas Cltv cost only $370 ,
as against JWi for the corresponding drovs
here
Hogs .mvo brought good prices this wvfck ,
as will be noted fiom the table of average
price * After opening on Mondaj at good
htrong figures the market Mumped off a
Ilttlo on Tuesday , but the los > s was more
than iccovered by Thursday and on Trlday
the high point of the jear was reached
In fact the hogs sold on Frld ly at the
highest average price touched sine ? Sep
tember of last jear. The demand was good
all the week at the prevailing prices and

CHICAGO April 23 The Times-Herald
vvlll s.iy tomorrow Definite Information
leached Chicago today that the contracts hal
been Hlgncd In London Friday which
formally transferred to a single organisa
tion practically all of the larger producing
copper mines In the United States. The de
tails vvoro meager and came through the
brokers vvho had handled minor parts of the
deal in this cit >
It Is understood that the miners under
contract produced about 425.000,000 pounds
flno of the total output of BS1),000,000 )
pounds line that were mined In this country
Last year. The same mines , it Is claimed ,
will produce fully 475,000,000 pounds fine of
the output of 050,000,000 pounds fine , esti
mated for 1S91) ) .
According to chtlmatcs made hoforo the
property changed hands , the actual value ot
the mining properties taken will exceed
$400,000,000. The particulars , however , will
probably be made public during the coming
week nnd the formnl life of the compnnj will
date from May 1.
In effect the now company Is an interna
tional corporation It will keep the copper
output equal to the demand and look to
economical production. It was the latter
consideration which hi ought into the com
bination some of the Interests that were
previously antagonistic. The Rothschilds
furnished the funds and made the stipula
tions for the European Interests involved ,
while the Standard Oil company was credited
with acting in the same capacity for the
American nlde Among the properties named
in yesterday's private cables were the Clark-
Dlgelon and the Marcus Daly Interests In
Montana , the Arcadian and Centennial In the
Lake Superior region and the Old Dominion
In Arizona , but it is known that several
other heavy producers not named are In
cluded.

Mrs. Lieutenant De Bride had won her
husband's heart by her womanliness , re
lates the Detroit Tree Press. Her manner ,
her bearing , her language , yes , and htr
dress , too , all combined to niako her appeal
in the eyes of the lieutenant thu most wom
anly woman ho had over met.
Ho went on happily picturing her to him
self at his oliico and dreaming of the gucct
sunshine that ladlatcd from her in their
homo. Women "ns nro women" are scarce
nowadays , lenstwnys 30 thought the lieuten
ant , and the regnrd he had for his wife , nil
question of love aside , was deep and heart
ily genuine.
That Is why his Ideals weio so rudely
shocked the other day when Mrs. Lieuten
ant exhibited to him n nc\v tailor mndo
govMi cut in the most extreme mannish
fashion.
"Hut , my dear , " expostulated Mr. Lieu
tenant , "don't you think it a bit too mubtu-
llno ? "
"Why , Mr. Lieutenant , " disagreed his
wife , "not in the least. Resides nil the
women I know are wearing gowns cut In a
similar manner and they nro to bo all the
lago this season. "
Mr. Lieutenant was too gnllnnt to Inter
pose further objections , but ho thought about
that dress considerably. And the next day
ho received another shock and a greater
Mrs Lieutenant showed him the shirt waist
she Intended to wear with thq now gown
It didn't look a bit like a shirt waist to Mi.
Lieutenant. Just a plain man's shirt , collar ,
cuffs , bosom nnd all.
Ho expostulated.
His wife smiled sweetly nnd answered his
objections with' "Why , It just harmonizes
with the stilt , you know And It's so easy
to put on , too , " she added , "there's no fuss
ing with hooks nnd eyes , nnd ribbons und
tying strings nVul all such , I'll just have
to button it together , nround the cnllnr , the
snmo ns you do , and that's ail. That ends
it"
What further could he say' Nothing. Ho
went down town , how ever , thinking deeply
She hnd ngrced to meet him at 3 o'clock In
her now gown on the campus.
At the nppolnted hour ho was on hand.
Ho waited forty-flvo minutes. Mrs Lieu
tenant did not put in an appearance. Ho
went homi' .
Arriving there , he found the wlfo of his
liriirt bathed In tears and lying on the dlvnn
Just on the verge of hysteria
Ho rushed over to her nnd kneeling ex
claimed "fell me , toll me , what is the
matter' "
And between her sobs Mrs Lieutenant
replied "For lor two mortal hours I've
I've been trying to button this collar and
and and I j J j Just c c c can't
manage thcso darned old buttons "
