-- Th Siwet nad littlo doubt to4r the bank did put the screws on Wall Mreet
Borrower. lvnr)y In tho. da,' notices Wero received by many houses calling In
loan nniVMor noon thro wnat a larto crowd nround the money post on tho
6or of tho Stock Exchange aoeklnrf to obfaln new accommodation in place of
tlm calfed. looa
1M mint,f mnrle- stMit with loans of about 110.000,000 at per cent, but
th demand -was ho general that tho bank ofrerlwr. with noma Institution placlnir
S,600,00(J each, wore tiulckly ftbortid, with n steady bidding up of tho prlco
ttnltl It reached 15 per Cent around 2 o'clock. Then there wa a reaction to JO
per cent, but although n, pood supply wui sont Into the boaW at this rale, call
ftjonoy was again quickly quoted ftt IS per cent bid.
IJuflng. tho early trading Wall street was disposed to rldloulo the growing
tnlon In money, whlch'had been supposed fo have reached I la most ncuto stage
on IJday lout, but when 13 per cent wait bid later and tho demand continued to
JeaaUy tho calling of further loan shortfy beforo 1 o'clock liquidation swelled
to larger volume ortd many slocks woro pressed for aale nt sharp concessions.
Wio market mado nil tho moro response to thin money disturbance because
of tho fact that many Issues had mado milmtontlnl gains In tho early forenoon.
United Btatea Steel common reflected tho general tnnrkot tone. That Mock
advanced i In tho first hour to 120, but when tho high rnto for money for
tha day was reached tho stock sold down to 124J4.
Tho widest rtuigo covered wan In Ohio Cities Claa, which after advancing 3
point to lSlJ,, dropped to lUtf. Amorlcan Bmolllng was favored to n ureal
atent by strong mnrket Interests In tho first half of tho day, when' It odvnncoil
rrioro than 1 point to heave 11, but When tho money conditions bocamo tenso the
.jtrlce dropped 3 poinU.
After these declines n. ateadlor lono doveloped, with tho apeculatlvo element
-' ( looking for some eaalor money conditions .as It hud dono each day last week when
tho nupply of money wm steadily becoming nenrecr.
No ono Boomed (o know whether tho situation Is natural or artificial, bill
there were many who bolleved that tho tension won partly forced In order to
ftko tho demand for money moro urgent and onabto tho financial Interests to
jlaco fixed loans extending for long period Into tho coming year at high rates.
In ,010 lato trading call money yielded agnln and it was then assumed that
..tho urgent demand had been fully supplied. With this casing off In money, the
,arket developed a stronger tone and rallies wcro In order nt tho close.

NBW VonK. Pee. 4. Business was only
moderate at the opening on the Cotton
Exchange today, the tone being easy and
prices showing declines of It to II points
in ins active itsues, wun tiepiemDer tiown
II points.
The leading Influence was the decline In
Liverpool, which was I to I polnut greater
than due. Tha Hngllsh market was af
fected by the pending political changes.
There was no special feature to the trad
Inr, a prominent Wall street Interest be
ing a fair buyer, whllo one room operator
took the entire list. Other Wall street In
terests sold and a supply came from com
minion houtet. Liverpool purchased a
small lot of March.
After the call the pressure became more
general, and by the end of the flrst fifteen
minutes prices had dropped I to 5 points
under the earlier levels.
The early decline carried prices out 31
to It points under Saturdays closing fig
ures, or, In the case of May contracts, about
121 points under the high levels reached nt
the beginning of last week.
The pressure then subsided somewhat
nnd the market steadied during the middle
of the mprnlng on covering and scattered
buying for a reaction,
Trading was quiet on rallies of 13 to II
points on the lowest. While there was no
change In the general, average of southern
spot news, there was a good deal of bearish
talk around the ring.
The bullish average of southern spot
news helped to check the early selling
movement, and there was some buying on
an Idea that the technical position had
been strengtheuod on the decline of about
0,60 per bnle from the high records of
last Monday, t
The early afternoon market showed lit
tie feature.
