HEARD ON THE BOURSE. London consols money and account opened 1-16 lower. New York The United States Exchange bank at 23 West Twenty-fifth street, will not open for business this morning, deposits estimated at $SS0,000, capital $100,000. Miller We hope that the situation has been made clear by the liquida
tion, but we still believe it is a good market to let alone as far as speculative operations are concerned. Brown There seems to be no pronounced change in the general situation. Financial Bureau Liquidation remains to come out, some of it urgent, some of it necessity and some of it strong enough to wait on good rallies, but we think the Worst is over and the money heretofore diverted to sustain the banks and trust companies from runs will make its appearance in the stock market by support and accumulative channels. Canadian Pacific earnings third week in October, $1,544,000, ine, $16,000. From July 1, $24,910,451, inc. $2,207,031. Missouri Pacific, third week October, $973,000, inc. $64,000.

Town Topics We now confidently state that a most remarkable opportunity is presented to those who are able to put up ample margins to protect against possibility of bear attack and almost anything on the list if bought on week spots will return large profits within a comparatively short time. We believe, however, that Union. Northern Pacific and Reading will be the best to buy though we are
also partial to Smelter and the good rails generally.

PRESENT SYSTEM ADEQUATE
Committee Fears That Two Tele phones in One City Will Create Confusion of Numbers.
Chicago, Oct. 25. An entirely phase was put on the Chicago phone situation yesterday. The mlttee of the City club having the
r. e w CU-
cago Telephone company's ordinance under consideration reported in favor of delaying all action until it could be determined whether the Illinois Tunnel company is able and willing to carry on the telephone business of Chicago under the ordinance it already possesses. Apparently it is both able and willing. As between the "manual system" of the Chicago Telephone company and the "automatic system" of the tunnel company, the committee said the advantages all seemed to lie with the tunnel company, and. moreover. It is
obligated to furnish phone service at a much less cost to users than the present company finds itself able to do. On top of this report from the City club came the statement of President Samuel McRoberts of the tunnel company that his corporation is preparing to go extensively into the telephone business; that It is confident it can fio the work with its automatic system;
Chicago, Oct. 25. The transition from financial alarm and unrest to confidence and tranquility was completed yesterday by a dramatic demonstration of money power in New York. Before the close of the business day the situation that had involved the city banks and trust companies and the stock market had cleared and there had been a marked advance toward normal conditions. The day opened threateningly with the suspension of two New York state banks of minor importance, the decision' of a savings bank to defer payments, and continued heavy runs on the Trust Company of America and the Lincoln Trust company. The ability of the former concern to withstand the run unshaken tended to restore confidence. The final and complete salvation of the situation was accomplished by turning an avalanche of money into the stock exchange through a pool headed by J. P. Morgan. Mr. Morgan
acted at a moment when a ruthless sacrifice of stocks held by brokers on
loans threatened to inject new demor
alization into the stock market. At the
most Critical instant the Morgan pool
sent $2,000,000 on to the floor for the
relief of the brokers.
Rockefeller Joins In Aid. In addition to this John D. Rocke
feller furnished $10,000,000 to stem the
tide running against the Trust Com
pany or America, and stood ready to advance $50,000,000 more if necessary. Together with the $25,000,000 deposited
by Secretary Cortelyou the rampart of
money now standing against a continu ance of the trouble approximates $100.

celver, and with that bankers and finan
ciers considered the incident closed and prepared for a resumption of business
on a normal basis.
Minor Incidents of the Ony.
Reports from other sections of the
country last night recorded runs on
Providence (R. I.) trust company and
a small bank in Baltimore, and a peti
tlon In bankruptcy filed against the Southern Steel company of Birming
ham, Ala. These incidents, however, had no bearing on the general financial situation.
In Nevada, where several banks and
trust companies are in temporary difficulty, a respite was furnished by a legal holiday ordered by the governor.
that it has the money back of it to install the necessary plant a matter about which there does not seem to be any dispute and that if necessary it is willing to take over the plant of the Chicago Telephone at the expiration of the latter's franchise in 1909 if the council so elects. Two Companies Dreed Confusion. . . In reaching this conclusion the committee referred to the now generally accepted theory that two telephone
companies in a city are a mistake, j causing not only confusion and annoyance but Increased cost to the user; that the passage of the telephone company's ordinance would invite this situation, because the ordinance of the tunnel company is a tangible thing already and does not expire until 0L929. Then the report goes on to say: "The proposed rates of the Chicago Telephone company ordinance, although subject to regulation hereafter by the city, are decidedly higher than the rates provided for in the tunnel
company s ordinance. As .against the flat rate $55 a year for a business telephone prescribed in the tunnel company's ordinance the proposed rate for the Chicago Telephone company's extension is $125 a year where a single line is used, and where the amount of business requires several lines and the installation of a switchboard a measured service rate Is imposed which, it is estimated, would cost the ordinary business house so equipped an amount much in excess of the flat rate. "It seems to us that the mere state
ment of this condition would compel
the assent of all reasonable and un
prejudiced men to the proposition that the benefit of the rates provided for in
the tunnel company's ordinance should
be secured to the telephone using pub
lic, if that company can and will install
a system which shall satisfactorily
serve the entire city as its ordinance
rates.
