MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review
New York, Aug. 25. Stock market
movements today, as of late, were dull
and uninteresting, the sales footing up
only 94,295 shares. Stocks started off
weak, but the declining tendency was
checked by the announcement that the
steamship Teutonic, sailing from Liv
erpool tomorrow will take out $500,000
gold consigned to a New York firm and
by a further decline of 4 cent in the
posted rates of sterling exchange. The
fact that there has been no necessity
to Issue clearing house loan certificates
as yet and that one of the city banks
was the heaviest lender of money on
call today assisted the recovery In
prices. The bank In question was the
First to suggest the issuance of loan
certificates and made the application
simply for the purpose of assisting other
institutions In casi of need. The corp
oration is one of the strongest down
town. In regard to gold Imports it was
stated that the banks and the foreign
exchange syndicate had decided to bring
twenty millions of the metal from
Europe. This report first gained cur
rency when the bunks restored the
treasury reserve to the hundred mil
lion mark some weeks ago, and was
denied at that time. There has been
no new development since although it
Is believed that tho movements of gold
to this country will keep ut least for
a month or six weeks longer. Near the
close the early gain of iaVi per cent
was generally lost nnd report had it
that McKIniey's letter of acceptance
would give more prominence to the tar
iff than generally looked for here. This
had some influence In certain quarters,
and accounts for the reactionary tend
ency. The selling was of light propor
tions and the impression on values In
significant. Speculation closed weak
Net changes show losses of 4at per
cent.
