Come
See
IIlaliIc 1lllillldt‘ is olIt' of waiting, and
this disposition was lutsnsilied by the
three (in) holiday iIIIcIIal in pIoapeIt
at the end of the week. The IIaIrow-
uess of the public interest in the mar:
kct Was evidenced in numerous ways.
Once or twice during the week there
was liquidation of what looked like
large individual accounts in a few
stock! 'lhe rapid yielding of the pri-
ces 0f the siii‘c dies thus affI-Ited indi-
cated the iIIdiffcI'chII of the demand
which had to be Ioutcndcd with. On
the other hand, in the intervals of
those liquidating episodes, II very
liirht demand was effI-ctlvoln lifting
prices rapidly, thus indicating the
small Rtiillillg supply of stocks in the
market. Efforts to analyze‘thc causes
lying behind these IIIIIIquestatious
gave large iIIIportance to the extent
of the operations by pools and club-
orate speculative organizations which
have figured in the advance in prices
for many months past.
The objective point of these organ-
ized opt-rations has been the awaken-
cd public demand for securities and
the progress of the restoration of
trade and industry to flt'liviiy attained
before the panic of 1097 or even be-
youd that. Men of recognized Judg-
ment and authority in the financial
world have voiced the conviction with
out reserve that the coming era of
trade and industrial activity and ac-
companying prosperity was to rise to
new high levels. The estimates ac-
cepted for some time past in Wall
street for the probable enactment of
the new tariff law were for the first
of June or thereabouts. The approach
of that date with the debate on the
tariff measure dragging out to an un-
dI-tiued future, leaves the speculation
in a suspended state. The public do-
Inaud for securities which was relied
upon to carry through the speculative
cycle has come into force only in mud-
mate degree and the sccnrinir of prof-
its by liquidation on the large aI‘Ium
ulations prI-scIItI-I diffiIultlcs. That
these achIquletions an. ghuualv held
is abundantly testified to by thII way
prices are held near the top in a mnr~
kct that has decreased in animation,
until the day‘s dealings for several
days this week fcll to below half a
million shares. The growth of busi-
ness revival and the sustained case of
the money market conditions are re-
licd upon to hold the market until
the general demand for securities
shall be awakened again.
MI-uutimc there is a continuous fiov
tutlon of new securities going on,
stimulated by the abundnnc of bank-
inlt resources left unemployed by the
moderate requirements, as ,ch of the
mercantile demands. Railroad and in-
dustriul corporations both figure in
this new financing. Some of it gives
rise to conjecture of plans to launch
into new fields of commission and con-
solidation or industrial enterprises.
The public offcrinl,I of stocks of the
United liry Goods Companies was
made the text for discussion of such a
likclihood. The Armour and Company
bond issue aroused the surmise of
leather interests of II possible aggres-
sivc incursion into that field. Propos-
ed cIIInIIIissions and absorptions of
minor railroad systems flunrcs largely
in the speculative activities of stock
market pools in stocks concerned. The
conspicuous strength of the stool group
owed us lunch to rumors of merging
of the independent companies with the
object of harmonizing relations with
the United States Steel Corporation
as to the returns of trade betterment.
These returns were striking, neverthe-
less. increased demand for refined
copper and reduced pressure of offer.
lugs by the lending interests furnish-
cd additional testiIIIIIuy of the thriv-
ing conditions of the metal industries.
Speculative sentiment has not been
free from anxiety over the crops and
the desire to await the government re-
port of condition . a of June 1st of the
grain crops const tutcs a leading re-
pressive influence on the market.
