New York. July .11. The strength of
Hip rnllrnnd group vn nbout the only
redeemable feature of today's lifeless
elosliiB stork market. Altogether, price
nioveinent wns featureless, representing
little eke except the fninlllar week-end
evening -un operations of the profes
sional trndin; element. Desultory rov-
erltlf? find tlimlArnfn iMAt.tnMni. In tli
Industrial shares produced the same
mixed and uneven movement In thla.
i division ns witnessed lu the preccdinc
session, but fliictuatlonK were confined
j to narrower limits. In brief, there wan
i a senernl disposition to mark time until
the Interstate Commerce Commltslon
hands down the rate decision, which is
expected iicxt week.
Hopes of n summer bull market were
Riven a cruel body blow as a result of
the week's severe nnd unheralded de
dine. The t-omicollnptc of the specu
lative structure furnished nn additional
convincing but painful reminder of the
utter artificial caliber of the brief for- i
ward swing of a fortnight iiro. o
doubt confidence in the market on the
part of the general public has been
badlv shaken. It Is eoiujr to reaulro
I some mighty pursuaslvc nrguraent to
get the average marginal operator to
! nibble ugain nt the bait, uutll it it
proven conclusively the crop movement
question has been entirely eliminated
as a market factor.
When the fact Is taken into con-
' slderation that Wall street has practl-
i callv been doing business on a call money
I basis, it is a little short of remarkable
i tho market level has stood up so well.
At different Intervals within the last
two weeks there has been nn apparent
easing of money rates, which, howevpr,
in each Instance proved to be more
superficial than a rcolity. This was
couHrmcd in the almost vanishing of
time funds. On the top of this it was
realized maturing time loans next mouth
ami the one following can, from all
indication, onl be renewed in call
funds.
Measured from unbiased viewpoint
such a condition would logically fore
shadow a further contraction in the
volume of Wall .street's business. Some. '
however, seem to feel that in view of
the general slackening of busiTies". the
lessening demand from commercial
quarters would give wider accommoda
tions for btock market purposes.
Although a slowing down of business!
activity already has been discounted iu
tho extreme low level of security values, i
jet. on the other hand, it must be sen-
sibly appreciative of the futility of at
tenpitng to attract any considerable out
side following, when each succeeding
advice from the important commodity
and industrial centers points to increas
in? renctionnrx svinntomt.
Taking (iovernor Hurding's optimistic
views on the credit situation, iu so far
as it pertnins to tin crop movement
financial operations, as a criterion, it
is fair to assume that perhaps the pre
dicted fall disaster in business may be
averted. It is pretty certain even now,
if there should be some collisions, no
such panicky conditions us prevailed in
11)07 are apt to develop. The excellent
l-'ederal lie-serve s.vstem. which many
seem prone to critici--, largely because
of selfish motives, will prevent a re
currence of several clement,, of dis
turbance. One of these, the suspension
of currency puvments, which created so
much hardship thirteen jcars ago, can
not occur again.
Itecogniziug the prevailing, conflicting
and confusing currents with which the'
general situutiou is heavily charged,!
makes it rullier easy to overemphasize
the iiufuviiiablc aspect, jet all uccvptcd !
signals umI signs point to the nvcesslty
tt cinpro.viug the greatest dihcriminu -tiou
and tuution in contemplated market
ventures.

unfortunate trannit niudillo uivl tbe
triiiKrnt money mnrUet conditions the
locnl market bad a ruther hard rond
to travel the lat week. Money, ine-nfar
as stoek market nccotiiinodations were
concerned, vvbk virtually unobtainuble.
nnd there does not appear to be am
relief in MEht. All talk of a possible
easement of money rates is pimply a
plain everyday pipe dream and anv
fne nur-liiK a contrary belief will soon
discover the seriounness of the miiitnke.
especially if any extensive mnrkct ven

Never before, even in panic period-,,
has monc ben ho difficult to obtain.
Some of the very beat loans are beinj;
turned down nt to 8 per cent, sim
ply because New York and other finan
cial centers are offering paper eipiajly
n Rood at rates up to and cxrpediuR ii
tier cent. When it conies to intei
earnings there Ih little philanthropy in
the banking business.
As to the transit situation, with the
unfortunate depreciation of the .securi
ties of the Philadelphia Rapid Transit
anil underlying companies, there is lit
tle additional to be said than which
has already been said or written. As a
matter of fact, there has been alto
gether too much said for the market lNov
health of those stocks. A uhnl Int r ! I"5
irresponsible talk has been published
broadcast, to the most of which hcnsible
thinking and reasoning people should
turn a deaf ear. Those who have for
years made a close study of the transit
situation and who ar thoroughly fa
miliar with the position and standing
of the underlying companies, while ad
mitting the present statin of the Kapid
Transit Co. as blng decidedly uncom
fortable, yet expressed the confident be
lief that out of the befogged situation, a
reasonuble and sensible solution will be
found, which will prove satisfactory to
all parties concerned. It. therefore,
will nrove both comforting and urnilt
if more attention is given to the
xnne deductions of these interests, rather

There have been reductions in oper
ations at many steel plants in tho coun
try during tho past week nnd shut
downs nlso have been made necessary by
tlie car sltuotlon and tho shortage of
coal, both of which became more acute
than ever. Tho plants of tho United
"States Steel Corporation are now oper
ating nt nbout 70 per cent of normal, ns
compared with 80 per cent 0 better
only slightly more than n week ago.
In the Chicago district the conditions,
are worse than elsewhere because of the
Innblllty to get conl. ond unless there is
Improvement soon the situation will be
extended. Nowcvcr, there is one re
deeming feature, nnd that is the private
advices received in some quarters that the
nilue operators In Indiana nnd Illinois
predicted the return of the men by Au
gust 'J. With coal production, the sit
uation In Chicago will be relieved.
It cannot be said that the leading
steel men nre optimistic. True there
is enough business on hand to keen
them going for mnny months, but with
nny decided unscttlemcnt In industrial
ondltions in the country tho cancel
lations will multiply rapidly, in the
opinion of many, and theso orders will
be cut down materially as a result.
Shipments of finished steel products
nlso arc smaller, but the Steel Cor
poration has been able to send out
about CO per cent of its production,
because of the location of Its mills in
the Pittsburgh district, which per
mitted deliveries by river to mnny con
suming points. Such users who nre
favorably located for river deliveries
hnvc no cause for complaint.
There Is not much to be said of new
orders, nnd, ns a matter of fact, the
leading topic uppenrs to be in connec
tion with withdrawals, cancellations,
or requests for delayed deliveries, com
ing mninly from automobile companies.
One development which is not nt nil
favorable is the effort bciug made by
some of the truck companies to cancel
or delay deliveries on some of their
contractu
Kor some time the pleasure car rank
ers have been requesting the right to
withdraw their orders, but, us It was
the genernl Impression- that the truck
companies had all the busiucbs they
enn handle, cancellations from thli
source were not looked for. Naturally
they have caused some surprise nnd
speculation oh to the reason. One
authority states that, in his opinion,
the truck mnkcrs are inclined to hold
off. because of the possibility of unset
tled business conditions In this country.
