Close of Week Marked by Extreme
Dnllnesa and Professlonnl Trading,
NEW TORK, Aug. 29 No significance
can be attached to today's dealings In
stocks by a handful of professional room
traders. Very few prominent stocks cov
ered an extreme average as much as a
point, and the market fluctuated uncer
tainly In the Interval. There were a lew

been due to the contradiction of the first

Is in reality a measure of the Inactivity

the knowledge of resources In reserve for
the money market overrides other consider-
atlons.
The usual talk Is heard in some quar
ters that the western banking Institutions
are so well fortified that the needs for
currency to move tne crops may ue mei
out of their own resources without calling
upon eastern banks. It Is pointed out that I
some western banks, even In the heart of i
the wheat belt are now lending money at
this center ana are ireer puyers 01 mer-
csntliR n ner here than the New York
banks themselves. But experience shows
that, whether resources of western Dan us
are loaned here directly or by the local
banks which have them on deposit, the
result of the fall demand for casn is me
same. When loans here Dy western nanus
are recalled, conditional demands for
credits are thrown upon the local banks
ami tha. tiAt raiilt wpm thttt tha western I
hanks withdrew their deposits irom isew

The lateness of the corn and cotton crops
are expected to cause delay In the In-
terlor demand, but Its proportions are gen-
erally expected to equal those of former
years. In other respects conditions are
oi.ri.n aioreit from those of last vear.
