Perhaps tne most Interesting Tealure or
the weea was the way in wmcn the stocks
ere supplied on the development ot

ence. Probably the most Dullish news, to
use a Wall street phrase, wiiicti the specu
lative community has leceiveo. since the
coiiapse in jiuy as the announcement 01
li.e leierees undings in the Minnesota late
case. 1 here were, to be sure, qualifying
considerations atfectlng the Import of tnese
findings, but In the last analysis. 00111 in
respect to their conclusions on the euoject
or values and railroad property rig. us,
and In their opinion limiting tne state tate-
inaklmc powei. tney eie 01 a a.stinciiy
tca.isuring character. .
Viewed in reiatmn to the stock market,
Judge Otis' report was the first crunio ot
comrort which vian street nis nan e
leniieu to it In a period stretching tar
bacKaara, as time was measured In tnat
icstlews district. Moreover. It was an
nounced In lurins calculateu to Impiess tne
stock market following v. Itn bullishnes of
It significance, and it is not surprising
that on the strength of It a sharp and
tapiil advance was easily forced in the
stock list.
Hurry Sapplle to Market.
'What Is of more consequence Is thir fact
that, as the subsequent session disclosed,
advantage was promptly taken by holders
ul stocks to hurry tneir supplies to mar
ket, and the presumption is warranted tnat
these Ktippiios csme from more important
quarters than the commission nouses,
which nave been notoriously bsrren of
comiimmeniN for many weeks. The same
conclusions from the course of prices and
the nature of the dealings might also be
drawn with regard to the effect of the Im
portant output of official optimism re
specting conditions In the steel trade. Wall
street has rarely been more firmly advised
by authority that it was forming mistaken
impression about industrial tendencies
than it ha this week been instructed con
cerning the steel btiHiness, it prices and
its prospect. Yet a stronger disposition
to sell than to buy United States Steel
seemed to be fostered by these assurances.
All this may go only to show that In
these disjointed times Wall street may be
expected to comport Itself In more than it
rumnmurv toDsv-turvv fashion. Albeit In
the long run the stock market has a loglo
which la, while all It own, quite in acoora
with the factors which go to make ecur
lty values and are translated Into prices.
There Is no evidence, apart from official
satisfaction, that basic industries ere in
any but a contracting condition with an
accompaniment of lowering prices.
Match Liquidation.
The atock market Itself has for week
been reflecting uncertainties and all that
the tock market following really knows
is that there has been a great liquidation
in the market, that prices are down to
a level which prepare for much adversity
and that Investor and speculators have
far more in their favor whtn marketing
long contract than they had a year ago
when quotation averaged twenty point
higher and a prolonged fall waa yet to
come. That there I need for hate In
making such contract is doubtful. When
the supply of stocks increase quickly, a
it did thl week, on the appearartce of
hasty buying, doubts on this score are not
dissipated. ,
The Interstate Commerce commission's
inquiry into railroad freight rates, based
on the advices which the common carriers
have asked, is not exactly gaining in Im
portance, but it is gaining in recognition
of its Importance.
Tho hearings are now being conducted In
the presence of members of the commis
sion Instead of before examiner only. In
Wall street more attention 1 being paid
to the record of the proceedings ana there
Is a growing discussion of the bearing of
the inquiry on the whole question ot the
relation which Is to obtain in the future
between our railroad system and public
necessity,
No Disturbance la Sight.
If a a result ot tne rate Investigation
some fundamental conclusions are emao
llshed for a rational theory and method
ot rate making, a long step will have been
taken toward tne problem solved.
A the day past belief atrengthena that
although the world' money market may
grow somewhat tighter before the end of
the year, such a rise ot interest rate a
is likely to be witnessed will have no dls
turblna conseacences.
The week ends with the cotton lading bill
controversy Just about where It was. but
In its bearing on the money market thl
Is not of so much practical significance
would nave been the case a year ago.
ine country is in a position where au
parently It can afford to wait, because It
must wait, upon the money market as well
as upon event. It may indeed be that
waiting, a contrasted with the general
liquidation wnicn so many nave been ex
pecting, is ail that the country will have
to go through. A period of rest, du Inesa
and quiet, may be as effective once more
a It has been at least twice In the last
decade In restoring our economic equi
librium.
The local clearing house banks showed at
the end of last week deposit but 15,600.0 0
111 rares 01 man, wnue the return
under the comptroler call for national
bank conditions as of September 1 exhibit
a loan account quite a extended a it waa
last epring.

CATTLE Receipts of cattle today were
xtremeiy light, there being not 11 mi; on
sale to make a market. For the week re-
elpts foot up over 42,u00 head, being the
leaviest run of the year to date with one
exception and larger than a year ago by
around 10,000 head. In spite of the large
receipts the market as a whole ha been
In very fair condition on most kind of cat
tle. Beef steers especially have been good
sellers all the week. In spite of the fact
that receipts were so large range cattle at
lie close of the week are not to exceed
ltKitl5c lower than one week ago. Strictly
good cornfed beef steers have been ex
tremely good seller and they commanded
steady or very close to steady prices. The
half-fat cornfed. on the other hand, are
loiil5o lower than last week.
Cow and heifers were splendid sellers
all the week. Under thejnfluence of large
roeelpt prices broke during the first of
the week, but the decline has been recov
ered so that at the close the market Is
where it was one week ago.
The most noticeable change In the market
has taken place in the feeder division.
The country demand throughout the week
has been Very light for heavy cattle, which
up until this week have been the best sell
er. Under tlio influence of the decreased
demand and the heavy receipt price broke
vtry badly, so that at the close or the
week heavy cattle are around 25it4tc or
So'it50c lower than the high time ten days
ago. The decline In the market has had
the natural result of bringing in mors
buyer, so that at the close of the week
the. cattle are all cleaned up, with pros
pects favorable for the market opening
out in a food healthy condition next week.
Light cattle, which were more or less
neglected during the last several weeks,
have been In very good demand this week
and the best grade have shown but very
little change a regard values. The trashy
snd Inferior kinds have naturally eased off
In sympathy for the break on other kinds.
As a rule' operators on the market are
looking for a good trade next week.

HOOS The tendency to hw viinu m.a
if anything, a little higher this morning!
Receipts were very Hunt, however, and
with trading erratic and rather quiet, it
was Pretty hard to locate a ramrai aver
age. Practically everything on sale carried
plenty ot weignt, ouik 01 ollerlngs selling
around $8.36a8.6V, steady to a nickel higher
than yesterday. Late trade waa dull at
figures no better than those paid yesterday
About the only bog that woulo coma under
in neaa ot ugme was a load ot highly
mixed animals, averaging aog pound. They
brought $3.90, the best price paid.
Receipts for the six days this week alva
4 very small total, but llgnt runs were id-
parently ignored by all classes of bu)ers
from start to finish. Present prices are
much lower than those of a week mm .i
declines amounting to 40446a Light hogs
nave vrmau iii, witn tne result that
neavy grades bore the brunt of the decline
noted. Bearish conditions surrounding the
(ratie at outsld points and uncertainty lu
provision circles have been the main rea-
toiis lor tne unsatisfactory- trade lately.

fall to see that If these knaves could do
for others what they ptetend to be able to
do they would do as much for themselves
and thus become independently weallliy.
It Is surprising that they can catch
enough suckers to make a living, but
they do.
E. K. Rlttenhouse, former Inpiiranca
commissioner of Colorado and president of
the Provident Savings Life ASMiranoe
society, has small patience with iK'SHlmlsm.
He ny:
"Our people are totlsv belter housed.
belter clothed, better fed and provided)
with moie comforts than ever heftire In tho
history of any people. In truth, peace snd
plenty prevail.
"Heie and there we hear the usual pre
dictions of general business ijetn e.iloti anil
a money stringency in the fall. These
gloomy forecasts are to be exiieuted. irt
fact, there never has been a time during
the last thirty years, while we were enjoy
ing a most marvelous period of prosperity,
that this pessimistic element could not be
found forecasting disaster. They are es
pecially loud In their predictions during the
summer months when business activity is
naturally at its lowest ehh.
"The commerce of this country Is so vast
and the business enterprises so varied, with
such extensive ramifications, that a de
pression In a few lines of trade cannot be
taken as indicating general business con
ditions or prosiwcts. The tMne has gone
by when the fluctuations in the prices of
securities In our financial centers can seri
ously affect the general prosperity of the
nation.
"This is the dull season In the security
market. The demand is light and prices
are low; nevertheless capital Is very ac
tively engaed In new enterprises through
out the country; the fanners have been
blessed with magnificent crops, soon to h
harvested, and the army of the unemployed
Is so much smaller than they were at this
time a year ago It would not attract at
tention." The total resources of the savings banks
In the stste of New York increased over
$4x.000,000 during the year ending Junt 30.
These favorable conditions are known to
prevail In greater or Ichh ratio in the other
states. x
"The rate problem," he continued, "will
not be settled until the government owns
the railroads, which in time la bound to
come."
