A BETTBU MONEY MARKET,
Although there Is no change In rates.
better tone exists In the money market
Jin this city, especially for commercial
paper. Country banks are nftain in tne
market for paper and In some Instances
they are buying as much as they do In
(normal times
Another Indication that the better fcei-
nng prevalent everywhere has penetrated
to the country Institutions Is tho fact
Bthat many country banks have, within
the last few days, offered to strengthen
their reserves with their city correspond
ents. One large bank In this city has
Ithls week received letters from many
country banks offering to do this.
This Indicates, In the opinion of bnnk-
Bers, that the country oanks realize tney
rnot need as much money as they have
their vaults and also that depositors.
Particularly farmers, who have, In a
Fiense. been hoarding tnelr money De-

PROTESTS CUTTING NUMBER

E. B, Wllford Urges Stockholders of
Northern to Act.
Claiming that minority stockholders
will lme no voice In the management of
thf company and that they will he vir
tual "frozen out" should the plan to
reduie the number of directors of the
Northern Trust Company from 13 to 12
be oted on favorably at the special
meeting of tho stockholders, called for
October 8 for this purpose, K. H. Wll
ford, n stockholder of the company, has
addressed a letter to stockholders ex
pressing his views and asking their pres
ence at the meeting or their proxy,
W. Frederick Snyder, president of the
Northern Trust Company, and by whom
tin- call for the special meeting Is signed,
today would not i1Isciis the plan
to I educe tlw number of directors. Asked
for what. Season this was to be done he
said he could say nothing.
Mr. Wllford, In his letter, calls atten
tion to tho fact that the notice calling
the special meeting does not give In de
tail the proposed changes In the by-laws
whereby the changes can be put Into
efTect The notice says that a crtaln
number of directors arc to be elected for
terms of more than one year, thus the
entire board will not be elected to serve
for tho same period, their terms overlapping.
