Money Situation Promises Stiff Loan Quotations in the Fall— Sterling Exchange Affected by Russian Developments.: . THE WEEK IN WALL STKF.ET. An August boom in stocks developed last week, and from surface indications it is likely to continue until the demand for money from the interior becomes urgent enough to bring about stiflfer rates for loans. There was great activity, accompanied by advancing prices In the best part of the five days of trading, but there was. however, no widespread demand for securities from the so-called public, the chief buying coming from the shorts and substantial speculative Wall Street Interests, who art anxious to bring about a much higher quota tion level. There was, nevertheless, mere com mission house buying by outsiders than re corded in recent weeks, and it was thought probable that with the continuance of agsrres slve bull operations there soon would be a re spectable public following in the market, es pecially as so many attractive morsels for the speculative appetite were placed on Wall Street's delicatessen counters. In addition to the declaration of a dividend on the common stock of the United States Steel Corpora t'on there were well founded rumors of the intention of directors of various properties to increase dividends and to place in the investment col umn shares which never have paid anything to their stockholders. There are good chance? that a 7 per cent rate will be declared on Union Pacific; it is expected that Southern Pacific will receive a dividend; also Pressed Steel Car common, and that the rates on Chesa peake & Ohio and Norfolk & Western will be increased. The expectation of such develop ments is good bull food, and it is being handed out in supplies that are calculated to inspire great public confidence in the stock market — that is, confidence among the followers who gen erally get into the market as it is about to de cline. The time is short in which conditions will favor the bull manipulation, and the word has gone forth in speculative circles that prices must be advanced in order to provide a good market in '.vhich the tied up pools and individ uals may part with their holdings at a profit. The approach of the season when money will go to a higher level and the fall Congre. e 3lona! elections will be factors that may serve to re strain activity in securities, and it is no more than natural that speculators who have stocks on their hands should be anxious to create a bull market this month, especially as general conditions in this country are so uniformly favorable. Thfe crops are apt to break records, the iron and steel business has never been in better condition, railroad earnings are heavy, and in all departments of trade there is but one story, and it is prosperity. The fact that the Quotations for the greater number of the lead ing securities have enjoyed marked recoveries from the recent depression In values and in most cases are selling at a level that makes but a small return to the purchaser does not enter Into serious consideration at this time. It is not a question of whether or not prices are too high. It is merely a desire on the part of speculators to let some one else have their hold ings at better figures, and a belief that the time is ripe for the development of an intensely bull ish sentiment among the public. Probably the conservative business men throughout yie coun try will not be attracted to tlie stock market at present prices, particularly as they have their funds well employed in the channels of trade, but there doubtless will be enough of the small fry to assist the big fellows in their un loading movement. Money market movements do not suggest the development of a long period of ease in loan quotations. Indeed, there are reasons for the belief that call funds will soon work toward a higher level, an Indication of which was pre sented in a stronger market at the close of the •week than recorded since the early part of July. While there were some slight concessions in time money in cases where the collateral was exceptional, the general position of this depart ment of the loan market was one of extreme firmness, with the chances favoring stlffer figures In the near future. Rates of domestic exchange at interior points on New York do not yet reflect an urgent demand for funds from this centre. b:t the time is not far distant when there will be an active inquiry for accommoda tion, notwithstanding the talk that is now heard to the effect that the West and South will be able this year to take care of their requirements without calling on the East for assistance. This idea has been put forth every year in the past, and it always has been found In error. Though the interior institutions are in a stronger posi tion at present than generally recorded at this period of the year, they will be compelled to answer greater demands than in any preceding season, owing to the probability of big crops and the enormous expansion that is now under way in the country's Industries. Their bal ances in the New* York banks are small, and, as a consequence, they will be forged to take other than their own money from our supplies, the result of which will tend to create firm rates for loans, unless there should be tremendoua gold imports from Europe, of which the chances are not now promising. Local bank reserves, while larger than they were a few weeks ago, are in no position to stand a drain from the interior without the assistance of gold imports and Treasury deposits, and, fortunately, the Secre tary of the Treasury has signified his intention of placing as much money with the country's banks as he ■•an. with the understanding that it will be withdrawn as soon as the urgent de mands are at an end. The development of active bull speculation in securities at this time is not a favorable factor for the money market, while the disturbance in Russia Is another influence that must be taken into careful consideration. It was thought a few weeks ago that gold imports were about to begin in volume, but exchange soon after began to run against this country, owing in great part to the sales of American securities for foreign account, and* at the present quotation for ster ling the metal could not be Imported except at a heavy loss. Under general trade conditions ex change ought to be in favor of the United States at this period and remain in our favor for a number of months, but a new element has forced itself Into the situation— namely, the un settled conditions In Russia— as a consequence of which heavy selling of American securities by foreign holders has been under way for the pur pose of raising funds to protect Russian securi ties and Russian credit. Foreign capitalists have so much money Invested in Russian secu rities and in Russian commercial enterprises that everything will l>e done to protect their invest ments, even at the expense of the American market, and it is easy, therefore, to see why a movement of gold to the United States may not be inaugurated in the event of continued trouble in the Czar's country. With gold Imports! how ever, there would be no surety of easy money in the fall. The metal received from Europe and the assistance furnished by the government would merely serve to offset withdrawals for in ttiior account, and In no way create a big «ur p!u* for the benefit of stock market speculators. NEW- YORK DAILY TRIBUNE. MONDAY. AUGUST 6. 1906. The decline in the price of breadstuffs has at tracted a heavier export demand, and the chances are that from now on shipments of food products, and later on of cotton, will be heavy, thus supplying a source of exchange that must naturally send gold to this side of the ocean un less Russian developments force further liquida tion of American securities. In the actual Investment market buying is light. Bond houses find difficulty in placing their supplies, and about the only important activity is reported In the speculative issues. Investors find prices in the greater number of instances too high, and they are waiting for an inevitable decline before buying. There may be no great downward movement in a year, as business conditions are so promising, but there are some observers who believe that in many lines the crest of the wave of prosperity is ap proaching, and that a material change at no re mote period will develop. This idea is not based on any sign of weakness in the situation, but on the theory that there is a limit to everything, and that the cycle of prosperity soon must run its course. It is worth considering. WEEKLY TABLE Or BONDS. 6*les. I Bos* i^'Hlgh.', Xet ' l«»*e.| 1 I „.
