Kelly, the fugitive, has locked up In his
breast. Rewards aggregating $1,800 have
been offered for Kelly's apprehension, but it
Is believed Circuit Attorney Folk can get

bribery and one for perjury.

LAST WEEK ON WALL STREET
Bask Sqnstt of Speculators in Stocks

MONEY SITUATION RIGHTS ITSELF PARTLY
Contraction ot Loans by Ranks anil
'Withdrawal of Iepol( by I n
illTldnala to Tube Advantage
of Itatea Restores Renerve.
NEW YORK. Sept. 27. Heavy liquidation
of securities has been forced in tbe stock
market this week by the calling of loans
by the banks to make up the deficiency
in their reserves revealed by last Satur
day's bank statement. The market steadied 1
and recovered somewhat In the latter part ;
of the week on the hope that the loan
contraction bad been carried as far as is
Immediately nereesary, and that the offer
of tbe secretary r: the treasury to pay now
all the government Interest due for the
remainder of the fiscal year, lean a rebate
of 2.4 per cent, and to purchase bonds.
would relieve the money stringency. Tho
stringency of the money market was solely
responsible for the weakness of stocks, anl
this was In part due to the large requlre
rrca for currency and credits which are
an Incident of active bublaess.
Ample warnings have been uttered by all
competent authorities of the condition
whlcb were precipitated this week, and
the lack of sufficient resources to carry
through the large speculative commitments
in the market has been clearly foreseen.
without affecting, however, the confidence
of the speculative contingent that means
of relief would be forthcoming. This con
tingent has claimed that the United States
treasury would be bound to afford ample
relief to the money market; that a rise In
the money rate would Immediately bring
ln gold, or that the tupply of money In
th. country was already so great that the
unusual demand upon New York for money
to move the crop would be remitted this
yer.
Government Honda Kcaree.
The fact was Ignored that all legal means
of returning government funds to the
money market require the security of gov
ernment bonds, and that the available sup
ply of government bonds has become so
depleted that the banks are not able to
Increase their holdings tor the purpose of
placing them with the government as se
curity. The well-advertised fact was also
Ignored that the obligations of American
borrowers to foreign lenders were already
so great that Imports of gold must be paid.
Th. one point of view of the speculator
was that the country U in a condition of
unexampled prosperity, which promises a
continued demand and Increasing value for
securities. Powerful combinations of spec
ulators, commanding all the way from $15,
000,000 to $50,000,000, according to compe
tent estimates, have long been engaged In
taking on all tbe storks they could carry
with all the money they could borrow.
Tb. cheapness of call money, pending the
season of active demand for funds, stim
ulated this disposition, although this de
ceptive rheapnesn was in Itself due to tbe
expectation of a rise In money rates for
long periods, and the desire of bankers to
keep their reserves In available forms.
Large holdings of stocks thus taken on
had the effect of lifting prices of securi
ties, but they were not taken with the
purpose of permanently holding, but simply
held on margin to feed tbe more substan
tial Investment demand expected to de
velop. So-.long as the . banks left the
credits undisturbed with which the pools
held their stocks, this condition might
have been maintained Indefinitely.
Banks Had to Call Loans.
The deficit In bank reserves developed
last Saturday and the inability to replenish
the cash so as to make good the deficiency
left the banks no alternative, but to de
mand the repayment of loans. The high
money rates which resulted tempted de
positor of all clasce to draw down their
deposit to place them In cail lean on their
account. Instead of accepting the compara
tively meager Interest paid by the banks
on deposits. The banka were thus forced
to extend the process of calling loans and
the money market was thrown Into disorder.
The process of actual depletion of reserves
haa meantime continued though ln dimin
ished degree. The government's customs
return have continued to run over $1,000,
000 dollars a day, practically all of v. him
are drawn directly from the New York
banks Into the subtreasury and the de
mands from the interior for purposes of
the circulation have continued. Only Inter
nal revenue and miscellaneous receipts can
be legally diverted into bank deposits, and
these are running light.
Th. stringency of money haa caused aome
weakness of foreign exchange, but has not
depressed the rate again to the gold Import
point. It has been the experience with
former offers by th. Treasury department
to anticipate government iutercst that they
brought little responae from bondholder. It
1 considered improbable that the banks
will put out again immediately In the stock
market the loana which have been recalled
from there this week. For these reasons,

What the Financier aa.
The New York Finanoler this week saya:
"Tho official statement of the New York
associated banks last week showed a sub
stantial recovery In the surplus reserve,
the result of a small gain in cash Instead
of a considerable loss and also a reduction
In reserve requirements caused by the gen
eral contraction of loans.
The specie was increased $1,973,000, while
the legal tenders decreased $182,900. making
the net gain In rash $1,790,700. The loans
show a contraction of $13,352,600 aaalnst
su.fM.mw in tne previous week and a larger
reduction than for any week since the mon
etary derangement began. The total de
crease since August 16 has been $"4.96.-
200.
"The deposits fell off last week $12,351,900,
making a total since the above named date
of $33,727,000. The required reserve waa re
duced $3,087,975 through last week's de
crease in deposits, which sum. added to the
net gain in cash of $1,790,700. made an In
crease of $4,788,685 ln reserve to $3,236,625
surplus. Last year at the corresponding
date the surplus wa $16,293,025. The cir
culation -was Increased by $316,600 and, as
has recently been the case, this wss dis
tributed among the larger Institutions. The
average dally clearings of the banka
amounted to $244,000,000, against $258,000,
000 ln tbe previous week.
Rank Reserves Are Hlather.
"So far as the cash reserves of the banks
are concerned, they were doubtless greater
at the end of the week than was shown
Tbe $1,000,000 gold from London and the
$1,000,000 gold from Australia which was
transferred hither from San Francisco by
telegraph did not reahch the banks until
Thursday and therefore this amount of $2,
000,000 counted under the system of av
eragc for but one-third of $650,000. There
waa a transfer from San Francisco on Frl
day of $550,000 gold, which counted for but
one day, or $90,000, and tbe remainder of
these several amounts will be reflected in
tbe current week's statement. Presumedly
tho contraction tn loans which has been In
progress for the last six weeks will no
longer be necessary now that th. reserves
have begun to recover and unless the weak
speculation should be greatly stimulated by
the improved condition of the banka and
monetary prospects there should be a res
toration ot the normal situation. More re
lief will be afforded through the arrival of
gold now In transit, and also through the
operations ct the numerous plans of tbe
secretary of the treasury, and these may
result in more than offset ln th. absorp
tion of money by the treasury.'
