Keys, New York.) In the last week of October tire head of a big bond house In New York was asked whether his house had done very much in that month. "Oh, yes," he said, "we have been very busy. We have been housecleaning." The phrase describes very accurately the activities of the whole financial world during a part of September and the whole of October. Not since the winter of 1907 has there been a period in any respect like this period. Up to the close of business in July these great bond houses, which do both a wholesale and retail business in bonds, had been active. Their big organisations, embracing in a great many cases scores of agents and salesmen throughout this country and in Europe, had been selling in small amounts the bonds underwritten in large amounts by the home office. There had been no particuliy* occasion to stop the rush of work in order to attend to various other matters of business that accumulate during the manifold activities of such an organization. The hanks had been loaning quite freely to all these houses In order to enable them to carry on their bond business. There had been nothing more than the ordinary scrutiny when such houses had made applications for loans in large and small amounts on the securities which they handle. When the wheels of finance ceased to revolve the selling organizations of these houses were stopped dead. Tn most cases salesmen were called in and in many cases they were laid oIT, either entirely or on half-pa?', or, were given extended holi days. The real business of the big bond houses became a series of negotiations with the bank.? in rospect to loans, margins and other details of the hanking- bti?:ne3s. Even in this department there was not much activity, for th" simple reason that the banks did not ask for additional margins, for the deposit of additional securities or undertake to disturb immediately the positiort of these houses. After a few weeks of almost complete inactivity, however, mat ters began to change. In the conference* the banks that had loaned money suggested that whenever it was possible the loans be reduced. Therefore, the big bond houses, as well as the stock houses and all fhe other borrowing firms and corporations in Wall Street began to take steps to clean house. The bond people put -their salesmen back on the road to sell bonds. They bought no new bonds, but "simply went to work to take off the shelves, as it were, and to turn into money, whatever they had in hand. At the same time the houses that do a marginal business had been doing their best to get their margins bigger. They had called upon their customers to increase the amount of cash on deposit or to cut down the amount of stock or bonds which they were carrying. As the customers put up addi tional cash the dealers themselves reduced the amount of the loans at the banks. This was true in all branches of the financial business, but especially true in Wall Street. The result of this tendency was a great reduction in loans during September and October, which strengthened the banks that loan money and helped materially to strengthen the general financial position throughout the country. During this housecleaning time, of course, other things received attention beside the mere matter of the amount of loans outstanding and the sale of good securities that were carried on the shelves of the bond houses. There was a very careful scrutiny of all the securities in hand. In many oases prices were marked down to figures that would be sure to make a sale pos sible. In other cases, where dealers found themselves with securities that could not be sold without practically destroying the solvency of the house, arrangements were made whereby a part of this load was shifted to somebody else. In a few cases small houses began to prepare for a process of liquidation and to get ready to go out of business when it, is wise to do so. It is astonishing how little default or insolvency occurred during this period. t What the result of such a wholesale housecleaning will be remains to be seen. There is 110 doubt that the process has removed several factors that were dangerous to the public. There is no doubt also that the strong, clean institutions will be cleaner as the result of this process. Many of them have taken substantial losses In order to get themselves into a position where their customers need not be at all afraid. One can hardly help but reach the conclusion that on the whole the result of the housecleaning process will be the usual result of such a process, namely, that the premises will be more wholesome and in better and more hygienic condition as a result of the enforced housecleaning.
