BWVaVn, -.oraury. | Balkan Disturbance Tests Stock Market-Gocd Support Given. Seldom has the stock market heen r.ut tO **<> OOYera a test with such sllghtly anfavontble effect as during the week Just ended. Just when optl mlaa appcared to have gained control orer the market and public buylng l>o gan to show signs of returning after long ahsence there came the cry from Macedonia, and dispatches told of war in the Halkans. FOf nges this cry bM echoed at perlods throughout tli.. world and ea.-h call has riveted the attentioi: of natlons on that small resorvatlon "f the earth's surface occupied by peo ?'!'? hnviiiK seml-barbarlc tastes and ipeakJng mlxed tongues. As usual, the reports of war ln the Balkans gave Kurope a shock whlch was ref!e;'ted in a spasm ot liquidation that affected tlie socurity marketa of the world. On Thursday. during tho holght of tht; hysteria, ihe London atick market, the bour??? of Paris, Heriin, Vienna and St. Petersburg were scenes of exelte ment, whilo all classea of lnve_tments w.-re sacriliced indlscriminately. Amer? ican sharea were returned to thls mar? ket in heavy lots, the tolal volume tor two days, Tuesday anrl Werinesday. es? timated to be ln excess of SOOfOOO shires, and the offerlnss were absorbed with ecarcely an evldence of the un usual. No special reason aslde from pani'-ky feeling was arparent for tho wholesale dumplng* of Amerlcan sharos which occurred, na only by lndlrect influence would Amerlcan securitles suffer ln the event of a European disturbance of even much greater proi?>rtlons than the Tureo-Macedonlan affair will he allowed to nssume. In these days of hlgh costs of e\ erythlng wars are much more expentMvo than ln former perlods, and money must be pn.cured by any country heforo aggrit-ive warfare c.nn he pursugd tor any conjdderahle tlme. Thls fact In Itself would have a ten deney to pre*.ent a war serlously __? fectlng Europe. There aro varlous other reaeona whlch mlghl be ad? vanced, but the financial one ls Bttffl** clently Important to be accepted as basie. Many times ln the past during portodl of profit taklng nnd some short eelllny, when the total did n..t involve half the money that was required tu pnrchase securitles ferit to this market from abroad on Tue.sday nnd Wedneaday last, the stock market has experlencod severe brenks. It would have been ac? cepted aa a nat*. ral result had the mar? ket given way to the pressure put on lt and a reactl. n of __._.'__ polnta en sued. The techni. al trading position mlght have been strength.-ned. and the buoyancy shown in the world's mar kets on Thursday wouid nave : timu lated the bull side of this market and resulted ln much hlgher prices for th week. Frlday's attempt to m ore an ndvance proved to be lneffectual ex? eept during the morning, and ln ihe late trading the market actad like Tim Pooley, who had been ennaRcd to .-arrv a "votes for womer.-' banner ln a suf? frage parade. Dl rlng the early march lng the banner .'eemed Ilght. but about half way on the line of march tho ban? ner began to get heavy, so Tim dropped lt and made a bee line for his frlend Casey's saloon. The market on Frl day lost Its banner carrier and prlcee reoeded, but there was stlll a market, tnd the tone of trading ihOWOd strength in Snturday's tmniilftlffM Consldered as a whole, tl.e week's sup? port of prices was excellent and the ac? tion of the market was of a character to stlmulate conHdence. Tho r'j.ur chasing of American InYeotmenta dur? ing the last two days <.f the week by foreigners emphasizes tbe ciprlces of stock market operations and shows that beyond the sensational there was no reason for wholusale Mquldatlon. Some returnlng of our securitles to thls country at any perlod of European un uettloment must be expected, whether caused by war or other troubles, as shlftlng of loans and foreed settlements will ever hang over lnveftment marketa as a posslble dlsarr inging Influence. However, wlth our national lnstltutlons of cornmerce and Industry so active and prosperous, and wlth every contrib utlng Interest fortlfying our funda mental condltlon, the Amerlcan stock markets are lncreasing their powers of fllgestlon to a degree when lUdden calls on them will be met with resourui h of absorptlon equal to any emergeney. Tryouts on the stock market when ample support Is afforded are helpful ln establlahlng confidence ln the public mind. No country offers such a variety of. good lnvestments as tho United States, and lnclderdnl occurrences should not be allowed to play on the emotlons of investors nnd cause need less selling of good securitles. In every fresh era of greater eventa and ages men properly equlpped men taliy and physlcally fur the dutles of the period are found ready and vigor ously active. Such ls the situation to? day. The I'nited States is no longer confir.ed to the I'nited States, but is a world power ln eommerco and tlnnnce. Our .'.early foreign trade now appmxl mates -H 000,000,000, a sum in ?*_____ of any other country exeept England. Further, it ls comfortlng to say that tht I'nited States ls the richest country ln the world. Separaling ?peeulatlon from Investment ls a diflicull task, as even ln some of the best of Inveetment pun hases the speculatlve elenunt ls in the mind of '.he buyer. Put the old ?tmlle uf the srtinging of the dock pen dulum Is weil tu bear in mind, and in thla .uuntry, v ith sm h a bri^ht future, lt is unwlse to be frighteced l y wavcr Ings of the stock markeis if care hM been exet-ieed in the ?eJecttaC- of secu? ritles.

The deposits could not he. made by the Treas ury wlth the country banks dlrect, as these have practlcally no bonds tO put up aa collateral. and. of courae, would not be beneflteii by buylng them.
