The Financier says: "The statement of the associated banks of New York city for the week ended Oct. 27 was cf a surprisingly favorable character, the gains In cash holdings especially attracting attention The known operations of tho week Indicated that the banks had lost money both to the treasury and to the Interior, but 5 far from showing this the averages reveal an actual gain of J2.323,Su0. both specie and legal tender sharing In the expansion. By any safe rule of calculation this increase cannot be accounted for. although the peculiar workings of the system of averages under which the statement is compiled have at times in the past resulted in even rnon astonishing results. The gold arriving from Europe within the past few days could not have figured fully in the statement, and treasury disbursements in bank operations were also too late to shov to the largest extent. Probably If the exhibit Is really correct lecal nrraUons with other institutions must b-a credited as responsible. At any rate the statement, as suggesting that it reveals the true condition of tbe banks, sets at rest th money rate for the Immediate future. The gold in transit from Europe and the consignments received from Australia and other sources will add appreciably to the reserve of New York Institutions, but it la an Interesting question whether loans ulll continue to contract In the volume shown over the past month. The shrinkage of $4.464,600 In this item since Oct. 22 was about as expected, although Stock Exchange operations during the six-day period had been unsually active. Deposits have been reduced $3.041.3K b reason of tbe lessening of loan commitments. It is evident that the statement docs not balance even approximately. There is reason to believe that the drain which the Interior banks have made on New Ycrk this tall is nearly at an end, but local bankers believe that the return of tlds money will be slow, and will not figure appreciably In the statements until near the end of the year. Perhaps the first evidence of the turn of the- tide will be seen in a contraction of out standing national bank notes, the volume of which has been Increased Jsl.OOO.ouO In a year. These cotes are scattered all over the United States, and any redundancy in circulation will operate toward their partial retirement. The elasticity tf national bank note currency under the new law, however, is yet to be tested." WALL. STREET REVIEW. There was a very manifest disposition to sell stocks to take profits Saturday. The appearance of the uneWepctedly favorable bank statement gave a momentary check to the downward move rcent. but the rally was taken Advantage of to Increase the selling, and the whole list gave way, closing weak and at the lowest prices. Net losses of between one and two points are recoided In not a few stock?, both In the Industrial and railroad lists. The former department was the greater sufferer. Some stocks had a period cf strength after the opening, notably Sugar, Brooklyn Transit and Metropolitan Street-railway, which were moat actually affected by the late selling movement. The iron and steel stocks, as a group, were weak, in spite of encouraging reports of the Industry in the weekly commercial reviews. Some of them Buffered to the extent of 1 to 1 per cent. In the railroad list the most conspicuous selling was in Missouri Pacific, as the latest stock to be subjected to unwarranted rumors to adance it. followed by authoritative denials. Other members of the Southwestern group fared better, notably St. Louis Southwestern preferred. The Chicago Altons and Kansas City Southerns were strong. Southern Pacific continued heavy. In spite of the decision upon the new president, the Readings were quite weak at losses of a point. There was a disposition about the exchange to depreciate the excessive tendency of the speculation and the broadness of the methods employed in some quarters. The systematic and periodical dissemination of bull canards was felt to endanger the stability of a market where buying was based on euch flimsy grounds. No Intelligible explanation is offered for the large Increase in casta reported by the banks for the week. Preliminary estimates of the changes, based cn statements furnished by the banks themselves, and made by recognized authorities, had placed the probable loss In cash all the way from $1,000.00j tip to over $3.0uO,Cve. The paymen. May. by the subtreasury, of drafts for $1.000,00 on account cf the Australian gold recently arrived In San Francisco was not expected to figure in this week's statement. The week has teen one of great speculative activity In stock, and has afforded opportunity to market very large holdings. Tbe development cf an outside demand has leen accompanied by manipulation of price in the interest of speculator long of stocks. The successful efforts to get price up have resulted In handsome profits In the selling to outside buyers. That many cf the buyers had In view merely a speculative operation, hoping for a continued rls- In prices which would efft-r a profit on a resale, was evident from the felling pressure which developed on the advance, and which turned prices backwards. Rut the bull interests on the exchange constantly shifted thtlr operations to new quarters of the stock list, and kept the s pe-rulatlve Interest awske by developing new price movements. Nearly every day during the week brought fcrth publication allering far-reaching charges In control ar.d in plan for operation cf great railroad prcpc-rtle or allied or connecting System, with premises rf colosal results in profits. Losing back over the week. It Is noticeable that these stories have failed cf confirmation, and in mary instances have been conclusively denied, so that after the first unward Jump of the stock. It has fallen back in price and become comparatively quiet in the speculation. While these facts make It evident that prices have been forced up artificially, they do not necessarily detract from the va!ue.. as a barometer cf general renditions, of the increased activity and higher prices cf stocks. The IrrtjK-rtant point is that an outside Interest has Wen attracted In the stock market. Previous efforts have been made to attract such an interest by otcr.iatlcus advar.ee In price, but wlthi';t avail, and the stock marVet has been confined to th traling between professional ojterators ever lnce lut spring. GOO!) OL'T.-'IDK DEMAND. Events hive so far prores-d towards ust,urance cf future business j ros-rertty that the Inquiry for securities, which Inevitably results from this state rf thing has made its apiearance ?n the stock market. Professional operators have long expected this, and have gone long of stocks In consequence. The week's events represented their effort to get the bert prices possible for their hold!.i;s. It Is an invariable incident of a bull market, nUo, that after the j rwfessicr.al operators have werkei through tbe list cf stocks and exploited all those available for a rise, and sett their holdings, they will be a Industrious

AET

In sowing discouraging opinions regarding future value as they were betVte in expressing confidence. Verisimilitude wlil always be given to these opinions by an ostentatious display of a headlong desire to sell stock?. The week has not lacked evidence that the professional mind of the stock operator has already arrived st this Ha;e with regard to snme stocks. There is always the doubt, which the public must struggle to solve, whether the anxiety of the professional Is greater to sell his own stocks, or to get the rutilc to tell theirs. It is a fact that conservative financial circles have for some time past discountenanced attempts to advance prices ct stocks ar.d to stimulate a general speculation, owing to the doubt whether the demands cn the money markets :f the world through the fall and winter ea,n wouldn't make It dangerous to inflate credits for merely speculative purposes, with the chance that a calling cf loans would be necessary, which wouM preoljjltat reculatlv? liquidation and" a dangerous fall of prices. The recent Mipplle of gold secured at various iotnts In Lurtpe and In London for Import, and which now amount to rearly $11.1X0.000. has been the determining Influences In relieving apprehension over the money outlook. It had been feared that such a withdrawal of gold would have dangerous consequences In Europe, which is still cut off from its former source of supply in the Transvaal. That European markets have been undisturbed by this movement Is partly due to the skill with which the exchange operations have been handled. American agents have scoured all out-of-the-way sources for floating Lipplies of gold, in order rot to encroach on the supplies in the great central institutions' abroad. This solicitude over foreign markets finds Its cause in enlightened selfishness, as American financial Interests in these markets are larger than ever before, and the country's export trade would be damaged by an upset in foreign money markets. Meantime the conviction has gained force that prosperous business and Industrial conditions are assured for the coming year. The large demand for money in circulation, the Increasing activity in the iron trade, the continued high level of railroad earnings, the enormous profits In cotton exports1, the growing foreign demand for grain, the settlement of the anthrarite miners' strike, all were of influence in encouraging sentiment over the outlook. It is the belief in business circles that a large amount of business has been held back until the pacing of the peril of uneettlement incident to the political campaign, so that the approach to election has been a factor In the speculative activity, the effort being to discount icst-electIon conditions. The week's receipts of gold in New York, cn the import movement, have kept the money rate down, though the demand for credits lnclc'ent to the speculation has not been without effect. The facilities afforded by the money market have been the determining cause of letting loose the speculative, tendency which has been under restraint for some time. An Incident of the week has been the continued advance of silver to the highest level in four years, and the apparent culmination of the rise and slight reaction. Ponds, as well as slocks, have responded to an awakened public Interest and some Issues have gained substantially In prices.

Trade of the Week Not nsj Good mm In the Preceding One. On the wholesale streets trade, the past week, was net as Targe In its volume as In the week ended Oct. 10. Unusually warm weather for October was one of the drawbacks, and as election draws rear merchants are holding off In Xurehaes to see what turn matters take. Retail merchants' have fair stocks now and prefer to wait a few days before stocking up on a liberal scale. On Commission row it was the dullest week in the last three months. Fruits anJ vegetables decayed badly and stocks were iargt. During the week linseed oil moved up 5 cents a gallon. Egg advanced 2 cents a dozen, and leather 1 cent a pound. Sugar rose a qutrter of a cent, and coffees are very firm at quotations, as are smoked meats. The hide market Is firmer, but net quotably changed. Flour is weak at quotations. The seed market 1 active and prices are strong in tone. Cheese is firm. In other lines there are no nw features. The local grain market was tha most active

duilr.g the entire week. In many months, arrivals cf nw corn averaging seventy carloads a dty and of other cereals tight to ten a daj.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: I read a statement In the Indianapolis Sentinel, signed by John Reese, of this place, dated Oct. 10, which speaks of this man as a bed-ridden soldier. This Is untrue. I am well acquainted with Mr. Reese, who claims he has been "turned down" by the administration, and would try to make the uninformed believe that he is not pensioned. I fill out his pension voucher each quarter and am engaged in the pension business. I helped Reese with his claim, but he failed to establish the fact of his incurring: asthma in the war. Reese, to my personal knowledge, is paying for the little farm he has bought out of the pension money he is row drawing. Mr. Reese would havo the public understand that his family has been scattered on account of his failure to get a pension. I live within two miles of Mr. Reese, but never have heard of his family being scattered. Mr. Reesa speaks of gretting' a pension by special legislation through Representative Crumpacker, and I have no doubt but Mr. Crumpacker would do work of this kind for the poldler, as from my personal knowledge of his friendship for the soldier and what he is trying to do legitimately for them cannot be questioned, and every soldier In this community, whether Democrat or Republican, has a good word for Mr Crumpacker. Mr. Reese says he was a member of Company E, One-hundred-and-elghty-second Regiment Ohio Volunteers, and I have no doubt but he is pensioned for the wounds he speaks of in his letter. The Reese letter was written to serve party ends, and some of Its statements are misleading. J. R, CR ASK. West Lebanon, Ind.; Oct. 2G. Littleness of Tammany. Chicago Journal. The admirers of Governor Roosevelt in New York are forced, at times, to prove their admiration under difficulties. After the war, when the people wanted the Rough Riders to march through the streets with their colonel at their head the Tammany authorities refused a permit for the parade. They knew he was going to run lor Governor and feared the effect of a popular outburst in his honor. With equal great-heartedness they tried to freeze him out of a place in the Dewey parade, but Roosevelt was Governor then, and solved that little matter by declaring that he would ride at the head of the State troops. He wore a civilian's clothes, but received an ovation. On Wednesday Tammany began refusing permits to certain society to participate in the Roosevelt demonstration at Madison Squaie. The smaliness of such procedure fits its source. eaSSBSSMMMSMWSSSMiMSSSSaW Trusts nnd Their Money. San Francisco Chronicle. II all trusts are bad then those who accept their money.

CATTLE QUICT, WITH INDICATIONS OF INCHCASI.XCJ WEAKNESS. Hops Opened Steady, but Subsequently Declined Sheep Quiet Condition of Markets Elsewhere. UNION STOCKYARDS, INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 27. Cattle Receipts. 50; shipments. 3'0. Th receipts cf cattle were small, the market was c4ulet on account cf the limited demand frcm all buyers, and tales were usually at lower prlcs than yesterday. The receipts this week show n increase of about 200 over last week. L2C0 over the same week a year ago. and the receipts so far this year show an increase cf 1.500 over the corresponding period last year. The supplies most of the week were small, and notwithstanding the demand was rather Indifferent and limited from all sources, salesmen succeeded in maintaining eteady prices for all good stock. Tfcv conditions were not such as to encourage a more liberal maiketlng. but It seems that a good many cattle were ready to come, and at the cluse of the week the receipts were unusually liberal. There was no Improvement whatever In the demand, and the orders were all filled long before the supply had been exhausted. Closing prices cf the week were generally about 10c lower than the opening for all fat stock, and the market for other kinds was so irregular that it would Le difficult to make. a true statement. The demand for the best feeding cattle was about as gcod as expected, and steady prices prevailed, but common stockers were plentiful and had no fixed value, salesmen having to accept whatever they could get. At the extreme close of the week several loads of good cattle as well as a large proportion of common to medium gTades had not changed owners. During the week steers sold as high as $3.53, heifers 14.S0. cows HAQ. calves J6.30 and bulls 11.25.

About 1.000 more hogs arrived than a week ago and 2.V00 less than a year ago. The arrivals included some very good kinds, in fact some better than any here yesterday. The market opened with a very fair demand and a few early sales were reported at about yesterday's prices, but generally buyers were asking concessions, and later, in keeping with lower markets elsewhere, salesmen had to take oft! about 2VjC in rflces. Before al! had changed hands there was rrobabiy 5c dechr.?, and the last arrivals ahowed at least that much change compared with yesterday. A good clearance was made at current prices. The receipts this week are about 1.500 smaller than last week and 3,500 smaller than the same week a year ago. Thus far this year the receipts are over 245.000 smaller than the same period last year. Values have been very uneven this week, but reactions have been followed by almost an equal rally, and at the close' of the week there was not a great deal of change in the average compared with the opening. On account of a greater difference between prices hero and in Eastern markets there was some Improvement in the shipping demand, but local packers are still taking a very large percentage of the supplies. The quality generally has been satisfactory, and more big heavy bogs were represented than last week.
