Report a Fairly l.arar
Inrrease.
NEW TORK, Oct. 15 (Special Tele
gram. ) if this w-eei. s sudden outburst of
I stock erohanxe rpeculntlon for the rlne. It
is rrnraniy lair to s.iv that the Well street
commun ty has tint taken It very seriously.
The stock exhehanpe speculation of
beaan, a every one hnon 1. In a nilscnn
ceptlnn of both the Industrial and the
banking situation: but it had at least be
fore It the outward lma of Immense pros,
petity. It Is hsrdly necessary to point out
where the present pus. Hon of affnlrs differs
from either ep.sode.
Very postMv. the sonihnt spectacular
rise in the week's prices h.-td Its Immediate
origin In the recent protection of their po
sition ny speculators who had sold short
:n conf'dent expectation of an October
money SMtieere, or of a very bad shotilnfj
fnr the crops.
The wheat market goes down faster then
any one anticipated, and in spite of sup
port yy strong trade Interests The cotton
market goes up fast. In ths face of roalls
lm? snles by the manipulators themselves,
and of Incredulity on the usually excited
southern markets.
The Rank Position.
The bank position is abnormally strong
In September end abnormally weak In Oc
tober; a new theory to explain Its alterna
tions has to be contrived almost everv
week. Todays weakened bnnk statement
showed decline of $la.200 0ix) in the loans,
whereas the weekly trust compunv state
ment reported a loan Increase of i2.rUKi .OHO.
This still leaves sonteth nc to be acmunted
for. in a week of extensive speculation for
the rise In stocks.
l'Rih reserves. In the actual statement,
decrease lest, thiin fl.rmo.noo-onlv one-fifth
of yeaterday's estimate by the banks and
the surplus rises $4 .Mi,ii. The total sur
plus is. however, $vki,0ii0 less than a year
ai:o. Excess of lonns over deposits Increase
sliHhtly: it was $25,400,000 toriav ss against

The Cotton Situation.
If the home banks and the European
banks should agree in approving S r Ed
ward Holden s plan of an Independent
company to guarantee cotton bills of lad
ing against fraud or losa, It is difficult to
see how the cotton trade can refuse to con
sider It. Sir Edward and the bankers con
tend that a guarantee, being a part of
the operation ,n exchange, would fall on
the European purchaser In his settlement
with his bank. The southern cotton ex
changes assume that the southern shipper
would have to ray the fee, and they ob
ject to the whole proposition on that
ground.
People who have studied the evstorn
under which the cotton crop has hitherto
bnen exported, have been tempted to ma):
a very similar comment on that svstom.
Machinery ot finance and transportnt on.
under which no human beins could be
sure where tha cotton was. against which
exchange was belnir drawn, or whether
indeed thnt particular cotton was actually
In existence, was n system better suited
to the sixteenth than to the twen cth cen
ury. There are details to the problem to be
worked out in any plan, among them the
vexed question us to who will be mulcted
for the suggested year. Rut It seems at
loast, to be lnoumbent on people In the
trade, who object to the unintelligible pro
ject of reform, to supgest another.

Cailm Receipts of cattle wore so small
this morning as to be equivalent to noth
ing but (or tne week arrivals have been
large, the total being 40,610 head aa against
jtf.eul head one week ago, and 85.M5 head a
year ago. Considering the large run the
market, as a wnole, has been 111 very sat
isfactory condition as viewed trotn a sell
er's standpoint.
The beet supply has consisted almost en
tirely oi catiie from the w. ostein range.
At the beginning of tile week tne large, re
ceipts created a little easier niaiket, but
any decline that may liava 1 alien plaoe
was full.' inaiie up later on and at the
close beef steers ara safely strong to a little
higher than last week. Cornfed steers have
bean scarce throughout the week and, as
there has been some little inquiry for
them, they have generally commanded
good, strong prices, and at the close of the
week are selling a little higher than last
week.
Cows and heifers showed some weakness
at the beginning of the week, but they
too, strengthened up later on and, at the
close of the week, are fully steady with
some ot the best grades possibly a little
stronger than last week. Bulls have been
good sellers all the weak at steady prioes.
Oood, light, native calves have sold fully
steady, the top on that kind being 67.00.
Heavy and medium calves on tha other
hand have broken badly, being around oOtf
$1.00 lower than the high time a week or
ten days ago. .
Strictly good to choice yearlings and 2-yenr-old
cattle of good colors have com
manded fully steady prices all the week,
and have been quite active sellers. On the
other hand plain oattle of Inferior grades
have all shown more or less weakness
and dullness and at tha close are 1626c
lower than one week ago. Btlll at the close
of the week everything Is cleaned up and
the market Is In a good healthy condition.

HOQ8 Hog trade opened fully 6c higher
than yesterday and Improved as the morn
ing advanoed. The extreme close found
pnoes just about lo higher. Indicating an
average advanoe of fully 10c. (Supplies
were moderate, consisting mainly of heav
ies, and with the demand fron. all quarters
active, a complete clearance was made
within two hours after the opening.
Heavy hogs moved around 88.3u&8 45 with
good mixed grades of various weights at
S 60 and better. Bacon weights were
scarce and commanded ths usual premium
over lard hogs, best lights selling at 88 85.
A few pigs were on sale, prices paid In
dicating a spread of 87.6O4v8.OO op this class
of stock.
Moderate receipts during the week and
freer movement of provision stocks re
cently, are credited with most of tha Im
provement In hog prioes. Net advances are
right around UKc, all weights selling
more readily than last week.

8HCBP-The few doubles of sheep and
lambs reoeived today made up a supply
too small for building up a mark-t and
the list of values remained unchanged.
Trade during the week has been heavily
supplied at all times, Monday's run break
ing all single day rewords at this point and
Ui weeks reoeipta surpassing the record
made two weeks age by 81.000 head. Right
around 197. OVi bead of sheep and lambs
were received, fully 74 per oent of this
number consisting of feeders
The demand for this olas of stock, while
ample, was not active enough to sustain
last week s level of prices and the market
broke sharply on Monday as a reault.
rftnoa that time, the rrneral trend to
feeder trainee bas been steadily downward.

A kind of discussion has arisen as to the
size of the banker's profits. The assertion
has been made that their prof.ts are
actually much smaller than the prof, la fx

that they are only 2 or 3 per cent, on a
bond undertaking, whereas the merchant
or manufacturer expects to make S or 10
per cent. True, a profit, of sav 2 per cent
on a 310.000.01)0 underwriting seems verr
moderate, but that is the profit on the
gross amount of capital Involved; the
profit on the net capital employed by the
underwriting banker may look very dif

However, the banker has paid the prevail

borrowed. That might be 4 por cent filj

And If this transaction be completed Iri

should Great Northern Pacific be entitled
uccordlng to the decree of Judge Otlo, to
earn 7 per cent on the valuation of Its
property when the Consolidated lias com
puny was declared entitled to only 4 per
cent?" At first glance there would appear
to be a peculiar discrepancy. The explana
tion, however, Is extremely simple The
legal rata of Interest In Minnesota, where
the railroad ruling was given, Is 7 per cent
