That professional operators are practically In control of the stock market, that Is, so far as dally fluctuations aro concerned. Is Bhownby tho susceptibility of that market to politi cal plays nt Washington, rather than to ac tual developments aSoctlne values outside of tho national cailtal and beyond the limits of Wall street. No one at all familiar with public affairs Imagines for a moment that tho discussion of the silrer question in tho United States Senate vrlll result In any change In the financial policy of the Government. It Is equally Improbable that the efforts st so-called currency reform will accomplish anything moro than the ventilation of tho con flicting views of those engaged In the move ment. The chances are that the advocates or silver in the Senate would not havn brought their hobby out at this time had not the currency reformers come to the front in an aggressive way. Each party has practically served notice upon the other that It proposes to debate Its pet theory, even though tho prospects of off ectlve legislative action aro Infinitesimal. The highly susceptible nervous organism of Wall street Is disturbed, however, br the Idle clamor of the contending factions, and In conse quonco speculation Is held in check and opera tions for short account are encouraged. Tho mora substantial Interests that from tlmo to tlmo find the Stock Kxcbango a desirable place in which to secure Investments do not seem to sharo the apprehension of the speculative com munity. Tbey aro also, it would appear, more keenly alive to the steady growth of the busi ness of the country as reflected In railway trafflo returns and In bank clearances and aa re latod in the trade reports. They also appreciate the Increasing independence of the United Stntea from a financial point of view and the Increasing dependence of other nations upon this country for staple products and man ufactured articles of various kinds. The proof of this last is found In our forolgn trado statis tics for the last calendar year. In more recent re turns from this port and In the prico of cereals. Tho latest erldenco upon tho point first men tioned is the fact that Kurope Is n large bor tower of money here through tbo medium of the foreign exchange market, and also that of tho recent Issue of Illinois Central Ilallroad 3a V cent, bonds moro than 83 V cent, was absorbed by local Investors. In due time tho various considerations noted above are likely to shape the course of the stock market, Just as, for somo time past, they bavo Influenced the dealings and prices in tho bond department of tho Exchange. At tbo moment thoysoein to bo virtually Ignored by the specu lative element. That contingent, ever alert for immcdlnto profit., sacrifices everything In its efforts to follow tho manipulation In the local traction stocks, in Sugar Refining and In tho shares of companies most likely to bo bonolltod by tbo approaching rush of mon and inercbandlso to the Klondike, Sugar Itofluing, Manhattan Itallway and Metropolitan Traction and Cantolld.itcd Has were exception ally strong to-day, in splto of depressing Influ ences emanating from Washington. Those in fluences resulted in liquidating sales by timid and weak holders, and'also encourared.pi)era tors for short account, particularly In the Kof thorn Paclflo stocks. People's Gas. and Jer sey Central. Tho Granger group, as for some Urns post, was neglected, and tho tono of the market for tho stocks includod In that cate gory was rather heavy. There was a little flurry in Ontario and Western, be causo London, with Its customary discrimina tion regarding Amorloan affairs, attached somo importance to tho fact that tho President of the Now York Central Company Is about to succood a doooasod family connection as a dlroctor In the company first named. Union Paclflo was conspicuously Arm, and so wero C, 1). and Qulncy and a, C, O. and St. Louts. Thoro was a rovlval of trading In that unknown quantity, Day Stato Gas, on conflicting roports from Bos ton regarding the status of tho complicated liti gation in which a discredited management has Involved tho company, Tho closing, though Irregular, was, In tho main, firm.
